Brain Dead Radio Episode 59: Rise of the Planet of the Riled Up Contagious Fright Ape

[Abraham Smashington]

HATED IT *Three seconds later* IF IT WASN'T CALLED FRIGHT NIGHT I WOULD HAVE LIKED IT SOME.


COME ON HUGHES WTF?!? Lulz @ that.

It's great not being a professional reviewer and it sucks to be a fanboy sometimes.

[B_Metal]

It was a soulless cash-in. If you're gonna do that pander to the fucks that liked the original somehow.

Sorry, I disagree and am glad they didn't pander to you. Agree/disagree.

I liked it up until the retarded Jerry "IMMA VAMPIRE GUISE" shit. I like parts but it never fully gels. And there was no where near enough of Tennett.

I will agree that was an odd sequence however it was not enough to crush my enjoyment. Of course I wasn't waiting on one goofy ass line from the OG flick.

[Abraham Smashington]

I didnt' rent it based on that line. I hoped they would have that line. Especially with how much they played up the Brewster dumping Mclovin and the LARPing for shoes and chicks. It was a stupid thing not to have in it to be honest. It fit in way more in this flick than the original in the way Brewster was played.

[B_Metal]

Ceej's hate of Rise is baffling. More so than the Fright Night shenanigans. Like HARDCOAR.

[Abraham Smashington]

But I didn't hate the movie because of it. It just cemented for me that I wasn't a huge fan of it.

Why? What does that one line add other than nostalgia? How would that ONE LINE make or break that flick. It's borderline insanity. You're entitled to that opinion but it's just........I have no words.

Tennant was cool, until the shoehorned backstory comes into play. It's part of why I thought the ending fell flat.

[Abraham Smashington]

I never said the movie would have been great if that line was in it. If I did in the podcast or on here then it was a mixup of words. I thought the movie was passable with some stupid moments mixed with some great ones but to not have that line in it seems fucking silly.

[Captain Russ]

YOU ARE THE ONES WHO ARE THE SILLY

I'll move on now.

[Abraham Smashington]

And it seems fucking silly due to how "cool" they were playing Brewster in this compared to the original. Hot fucking girlfriend, new friends, fancy clothes, etc. All remakes/re-imaginings have call backs to the stuff before it. It just seemed really silly for that one line that OG fans of the flick love isn't in it. Did it ruin the flick? No. Does it make your opinion of the movie wrong? no. Did it disappoint Ceej and I seeing that we are hardcore 80's horror fans and used to quote this movie prior to ever recording podcasts? Yes.

Does Punk even sleep?

If anything, the fact McLovin didn't turn into a wolf should be higher up on the list of complaints. Remember that weird ass shit?

[Abraham Smashington]

Ceej was checked out before then. I just wanted more Tennett by that point.

[Captain Russ]

Ceej's lack of commitment is troubling.
