I'm surprised too, I didn't think anyone would seriously still be this upset that a film that came out 15 years ago dared to be mildly critical of organized religion(and the film is fucking tame compared to the books so the Christians that bitched and cried over that film should've been thanking their lucky stars that the film was holding back on criticisms compared to the original materials)
Let’s just all agree, all 3 of us were surprised for our own reasons lol.
Yeah to get back on topic i'd love to see the R-rated version of the 2019 Black Christmas film, don't get me wrong that film would still have a bunch of problems(let's just say the Nostalgia Critic's review of that film with The Cinema Snob perfectly sums up my views on that film and leave it at that)but if it had the violence it might at least be somewhat tolerable so it was mind-boggling to hear that it wasn't even released to DVD unrated, and toning it down after test-screenings turned out to be a pretty boneheaded move when that didn't result in a massive army of teens flocking to see it(it actually performed worse then the far superior 2006 film)and instead it being quickly forgotten and looked back on as an overall embarrassing excuse for a remake(Which is pretty much in-name only and i've heard some pretty convincing rumors that it wasn't even originally meant to be a remake and it had the Black Christmas tacked on at pretty much the last minute in a desperate attempt to get more people to see it, which if true wouldn't shock me one bit).

To be honest, we need more horror movie extended cuts. I haven’t watched it yet, but I heard Halloween ends wasn’t very good. I have also heard the test screening cuts of the film were better (now I kinda hope those screeners get leaked online, and I’m not talking a recording or a torrent or anything like that, I mean the actual cut.) Some people actually think the novelization is better (most of michaels extra kills probably were not filmed tho), and others believe the movie needed an extended cut even more than Halloween kills did.

Whoever told you that is full of crap, Ends is a damn good movie and well worth seeing, Kills is fine too.

I mean, nobody told me, I just see a lot of reviews hating on it. I do personally think it was a huge mistake to cut joans death, but aside from that, it doesn’t seem like it would be a bad movie.
I’ve also seen Halloween kills, and that one was pretty good too. I still wish they shared more deleted scenes publicly though, but unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like blumhouse cares enough to release another extended cut for anything in this trilogy.
I do feel they made a mistake killing Corey tbh, he could very well have been the next Michael, or even a different kind of terror entirely. That scarecrow mask should have been the one he wears if he ever got to continue killing.
But now that I think about it, what would those films even be called?

Interesting, another film with an alternate cut that deserves to be seen is the 2009 film "Fanboys" the saga surrounding that one and the Weinstein Company(ugh)is worth a whole documentary. Basically the movie was shot WAY back in like 2005 or so and the Weinsteins didn't like the subplot about the one guy dying of cancer(which is the whole reason the main characters wanted to break into Skywalker Ranch to see the movie before it hit theaters, without that subplot the characters just come off as jerks)eventually the director Kyle Newman sort of got his way as he got to keep the cancer subplot but he got a stipulation that the film had to be EXACTLY 90 minutes long forcing him to cut some scenes he quite liked(and he's not legally allowed to screen the directors cut version to anyone, though with the Weinstein company now defunct i'm not sure if that's the case anymore), there was also another alternate version done in 2008 with reshoots by Steven Brill and there were test screenings for both versions and audiences got asked which version they preferred and Kyle's version was preferred and the Weinsteins tried to sabotage him, i'm a fan of Brill's movies and i'm curious to see what his version was like.
Newman also had a lost/unfinished film made during that time-a Revenge of the Nerds remake, it fell apart because the only college that would let him film there was an all-girls school(as other colleges had had bad experiences with filmmakers in the past with them creating a big mess and not bothering to clean it up)and once they found out what kind of movie he was making him and his film crew got kicked out before filming was completed, forcing him to abandon the film and resulting in it's cancellation.

That schoollege should have just let the man cook. As for the fanboys film, we have to see both of them test screening cuts.
I wish test screeners were leaked more often tbh. It would be a nice way to see what got changed or cut, instead of having to take a test audience members word for it.

Also, I just realized, if I got a penny every time a computer animated dreamworks film had a blue skinned villain, I would have had 2 cents, which isn’t much, but it’s weird that it was supposed to happen twice (the first time being megamind).

darkrage6, you really didn’t expect me to fade off into the sunset and not respond, did you? Honestly I find our discussions a bit entertaining in a way. I would suggest to you out of that book we wrote together is bulk up that thin skin you have there, friend. From my stand point anytime something gets brought up that irks you, you fly into a political rhetoric laced hissy fit over it, and along the way you kind of sound like you’re claiming a little victimhood. Honestly living like that on such a hair trigger can’t be a pleasant way to live and you’re unfortunately going to have to share the same planet with all of these people and ideologies that you hate. I used to be like that too until I wised up. You just have to grow up and deal.
Also I would prefer more things in this world to be non-political because everyone bitching about their poor lil’ victimhood and everything else just seem like excuses to keep themselves down instead of taking charge of their situations. It’s also very pathetically boring to listen to. There would be far less problems if there weren’t so many people wanting to keep the fires stoked on these problematic ideologies all the time.
All politicians are lying dogshit, always have been. I don’t support liars.
So with that said, I can walk away from this whole thing now, especially now that I know I can’t have any kind of discussion with you without you getting all angry about an opposing opinion. So, its been fun.
Lostmedia1975, pm me if you want to know about who I was talking about. I am done in this thread. Someone stunk up the room for me,lol.

Don't try to get the last word in with this guy either. He will respond to whatever the fuck you send to him. I can see it now really, all he's gonna do is quote all the things you say in this little paragraph and go "Um, no, buddy, YOURE the one who is all these things!" And then another long tongue lashing and a few youtube videos and listsicles that you must read to see the error of your ways and become a better person in his eyes.
"oooh, you're a- a freaked out child in the woods..."

Uh show me exactly where and when I said I expected that? Oh wait that's right NEVER.
only one I see "throwing a hissy fit" here is you dear boy and all over a film that came out ages ago cause you're evidently still butthurt about the fact that it dared to criticized organized religion even a little bit LOL.
Also how come your using my name at the start of your messages instead of just quoting my last post? Did you really expect me to not notice your replies to me if I didn't get a notification? Well too bad you're not that clever.
No not all politicians are, that's a childish way of looking at things, people like AOC certainly aren't like that at all, can't take anybody seriously who has incredibly ignorant views like that so i'm just going to block you from now on so I can spare myself having to listen to your immature nonsense.
There would be far less problems if people like you didn't have such naive South Park-esque "hurr durr ALL politicians are EEEEEEEVIL cuz I said so!" views, that helps absolutely nobody at all and isn't remotely productive. I can't believe you're 40 years old and still spouting childish nonsense like that which most people grew out of after leaving college and entering the real world, it's embarrassing as hell.
Oh blow it out your ass and spare me the "Victimhood" nonsense, let me guess you're one of those alt-right trolls always complaining about marginalized people right? You sure sound like you're reading straight from their playbook with that nonsense, now that's a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black since you religious wackos pretty much do nothing but engage in " poor lil victimhood" whenever somebody dares to call out your precious organized religions and act like Christians are the ones being oppressed when they aren't. I never once claimed victimhood genius but you sure as hell are doing so right now, the only one with "thin skin" here is you troll, i'm not the one that flew off the handle over a damn movie that came out 15 fucking years ago hypocrite.
If anyone has a hair trigger it's you fool, you're the one who tried to start shit over that film going after Christianity and organized religion, nobody was asking whether that film should've been made at all or not but you just had to throw your ignorant-ass opinion into the ring despite nobody on here wanting it or asking you for it. You Christians wackos do nothing but "keep yourselves down" and act like the whole world is against you when it's the polar opposite, I am in fact "Taking charge" by stopping your nonsense dead in it's tracks and refusing to just roll over and mindlessly agree with your ignorant claims.
Only one stinking things up here is you with your pathetic crybaby nonsense, sorry you can't handle someone else criticizing your ignorant viewpoints and poking holes in them, that's just life.
BTW your grammar sucks big time, your first paragraph is riddled with errors, only one that needs to "Grow up and deal" here is you foolish one, i'm not the one still hung up over a movie that came out over a decade ago.
Only thing thing that's "lying dogshit" and "pathetically boring" here are your lame-ass posts and you are a huge liar yourself so I find that claim hilariously hypocritical coming from you.
I'm glad that I can safely disregard every single thing you say now that I know you're completely full of shit.
You "wised up" LOL now that's funny, if you had wised up you wouldn't still be spouting South Park-esque nonsense. I may have to share a planet with hateful bigots but that DOES NOT in fact mean i'm under any obligation whatsoever to tolerate their nonsense, when I found some of my co-workers were racist towards Muslims I could've just ignored it and continued to collect a paycheck(which i'm guessing is what would've done since you probably don't give a rat's ass about marginalized people judging from your negative attitude overall)but I chose to walk away from that job because I could not in good conscious continue to work alongside bigots like that(Besides I had other issues with that job anyways).
You're only "done here" cause you know deep down i'm right and you're dead wrong but you're too stubborn to admit it, I leave you with this:

Okay, to simmer you down a little bit I will quote your book so it’s easier for you to see this. Can’t have you just checking through the posts, got to have a big arrow pointing.
No, I don’t think you’re right about anything, but that is my opinion so what, right? You are the one getting angry over nothing.

I know, right? And what would I need to apologize for? Stirring his rage just because I thought Hollywood attempting to market a franchise that was created to agitate religious people towards a general audience was a mistake?

Not even one, just poor execution, clearly. Imagine getting this heated over a blockbuster from 15 years ago
