I don’t think Honest Trailers was being entirely fair to GODZILLA X KONG: THE NEW EMPIRE, though. The movies are not there to be, well, GODZILLA MINUS ONE. They’re there to be big, sloppy fun, and they’re hitting their marks. There is virtue in picking an achievable goal, and striving your best to reach it. Not every film has to try to be the Greatest Movie Ever.

I’m pretty sure I’m not gonna watch the new one, after all*. I’m remembering Beverly Hills Cop 3 again, and that was one of the movies that taught me the foolishness of hope. But BEVERLY HILLS COP itself? Yeah, I might go watch that.
*I suspect that neither will Honest Trailers.

Mostly because Honest Trailers had the same “Toho Studios built this IN A CAVE! With a BOX OF SCRAPS!” reaction that I did, although they didn’t actually reference IRON MAN. More’s the pity. Catch GODZILLA MINUS ONE on streaming, if you haven’t yet. And no, it’s not out on DVD yet, which is also a pity.

I agree with Honest Trailers: it’s… weird, having videogame movies/TV shows that don’t automatically suck. I still have to sit down and watch FALLOUT, though. Even if I did start a new campaign, dedicated around turning Sanctuary Hills into a full settlement before I even go to Concord.
Honest Trailers had virtually nothing bad to say about DUNE: PART TWO. I can’t blame them for that: it was a really freaking good movie. DUNE MESSIAH’s gonna be… well, there are no guarantees, but what the heck.
Also: they did a nice deep dive on one of the actors. You’ll know it when you see it.
I enjoyed SHERLOCK HOLMES and GAME OF SHADOWS quite a bit. In fact, those two flicks might be why I started watching Guy Ritchie movies. Then again, I’m a little weird.

Do I actually want to watch NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN? Coen Brothers movies always run the risk of making me feel sad. I don’t seek out feeling sad.

Did Honest Trailers like WONKA, or dislike it? I honestly can’t tell. Usually they’re a lot less ambiguous about it.

Their review of AQUAMAN AND THE LOST KINGDOM was… harsh, but fair. I liked it, but it had issues. Quite a few issues, really. To start off, it should’ve been more of a horror movie…
