Twister (2024)

Hello kiddies.

How is everyone.

I watched this two days back and here's what I think.

Note the following

OST of Twister 1996

Talula (BT's Tornado Mix) - Tori Amos
Motherless Child - Eric Clapton
Darling Pretty - Mark Knopfler
Twisted - Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham
Melancholy Mechanics - Red Hot Chili Peppers
She Ain't Coming Back - Joe Diffie
Virtual Reality - Rusted Root
No One Needs to Know - Shania Twain
Child in Time - Deep Purple
Oklahoma - Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II
Long Way Down - Goo Goo Dolls
Miss This - Soul Asylum
Broken - Belly
See the Sky Again - Edwin McCain
Humans Being - Van Halen
How - Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories
Moments Like This - Alison Krauss & Union Station
De Natura Sonoris No. 1 - Krzysztof Penderecki
Love Affair - K.D. Lang
Respect The Wind - Edward Van Halen (as Edward) and Alex Van Halen

OST of Twisters 2024

Salio el sol - Don Omar
Never Left Me - Megan Moroney
Death Wish Love - Benson Boone
Ain't No Love in Oklahoma - Luke Combs
Chasing The Wind - Lanie Gardner
Arkansas - Chris Stapleton
(Ghost) Riders in the Sky - Charley Crockett
Wall of Death - Wilderado, Ken Pomeroy & James McAlister
Song While You're Away - Tyler Childers
Hell or High Water - Bailey Zimmerman
Too Easy - Tanner Adell
Dead End Road - Jelly Roll
Feelin' Country - Thomas Rhett
The Cards I've Been Dealt - Warren Zeiders
Boots Don't - Shania Twain & Breland
Country Classic - Kane Brown
Out of Oklahoma - Lainey Wilson
Chrome Cowgirl - Leon Bridges
Steal My Thunder - Conner Smith
Already Had It - Tucker Wetmore
Tear Us Apart - Sam Barber
Run Horse Run - Charley Crockett
Ain't in Kansas Anymore - Miranda Lambert
Leave the Light On - Jelly Roll feat. Alexandra Kay

Do you see it?

The original Twister was targeted at everyone.

This new one seems to be more narrow in terms of it's target audience...

One surprise was to see David Corenswet (that's right, the next Superman). I have to say he probably was getting ready for the said role while he was filming this and have to say he does look jacked. I think it is a risk for him to be in this because he does not play a nice guy...

With all the special effects what this movie really forgot is, how to make the movie fun.

I had the opportunity to watch the original recently and that movie was fun.

Overall the new one can be entertaining.

Definitely outside of Dune 2 this is one of the better movie this year.

Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)

So...

This movie... defies explanation

The fact that ot got made, under the Disney banner boggles the minds.

Will it save the MCU?

We shall see.

Be warned, some dialogue is *beeped* by local censors because of vulgarity.

As for the movie (as in the actual image itself) I did not notice any cuts.

So...

Wolverine is in it as the title suggest

It also surprisingly have

Credit where credit is due, they do give credit to artist/writer like John Bryne and also a surprising homage to Stan Lee in the movie

So, is the movie violent? Yes, VERY!

Is it a worthy sequel to the first two movies? YES!!

So Marvel do more with the Fox Marvel characters? Oh gosh Yes, Yes, YES!!

My Two Sen

P.S. There is a POST Credit Scene.

Deadpool & Wolverine

Anyone else, like legit serious, from start to finish - felt the Stranger Things vibes going on in the bgms and songs?
Cause, surprise! They roped in Rob Simonson for the film's music, and he put his magic to Madonna's Like A Prayer just like he did to Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill in Stranger Things Season 4.
This filmed pulled all sorts of scores from previous Marvel/Fox films - can't help but feel the he leaned a little too much into Days of Future Past' Hope and First Class's Rage & Serenity/Sub Lift - but hej, that's just me laugh.gif cool.gif

Trivia:

This film is very much of you doing this:
user posted image
And not just in terms of Marvel/Comic references, but memes, and much more! So if you've been under your lotus petal for a while, some of it might just fly through your hair laugh.gif

If you're down for a good laugh, and a touch of nostalgia - with lot's of vulgarity and over-the-top Disney-violence, then yes, LFG!

But bring your under 18s at your own risk! Don't blame Mickey if your kid becomes a meresian with mouth after watching this film! rclxs0.gif

If you loved HTTYD, then this is something similar with a refreshing perspective.
Very beautifully animated film accompanied with a very interesting and heartfelt score thumbsup.gif

This show, very many yik yik yak yak talk talk talk, very angmoh gwailou style suspense - so if you looking for action and adventure, marvel DC pew pew pew, or some tears inducing drama then it is 100% not your cup of tea. Ini wayang, mau kasi guna itu brain pikir pikir - if you are sensitive strawberry penunggang agama (tak kisah la agama mana ya satu) - you might be very triggered.

ok - with that aside - this film for me, is an absolutely marvelous piece of cinema thumbsup.gif
It is a well balanced suspenseful film which dabbles with beliefs that might just make you ask yourself... WHAT IF?
Very good performances by the main trio - Hugh Grant, Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East. The music is just about right to keep you on the edge of your seat, one of the more interesting films in recent times.

You'd think sony would stop webbing around after the mess that is Morbius, Madame Web and quite recently Venom 3.0 - but hot diggitydang, Quicksilver Tarzan versi si spiderman dia pun tak lepas.
At least Madame Web got eye candy ha, this one batang berjuntai sape mau tengok sweat.gif
Ok - rantosaurus done ranting - i do believe if this came out during the early days of Raimi's spiderman days or Singer's X-men (early 2000s) - it would make some dough, but in today's "superhero" standards - falls quite flat. IDK about you, and I am certainly no rusky myself, but the accents felt so horribly forced, even Maximus Decimus Meridius(yes, THE Gladiator himself) couldn't pull it off - and don't even get started on the CGI, very shoddy work sweat.gif Not me cuppa tea, but if you can find the joy in Venom/Madame Web, then hey - might be worth your time, otherwise, you'd miss absolutely nothing of note in the vast universe of the MCU.

Been quite a while since last saw King Leonidas in a film lol.gif
righty'o then, the opening sequence was quite interesting, from there onwards everything else is pretty much done and dusted heist recipe - nothing new, plot pun meh only yawn.gif
decent showing from Ice Cube's kid, first time weh, steady bompipi la despite abit kayu facial expressions - and yay for that teeny weeny bit of screen time for Kelly Fonseca rclxm9.gif

ni memang rare ah, tgk filem btul btul cina punya, bukan yg jenis hong kong si andy lau or donnie darko yen laugh.gif
this comedy is like a short version of what could have been a mini/short-tv series, found it pretty relevant to todays life/work expectations (at least to me) regardless of your bangsa/agama, life lessons are meant for all notworthy.gif
not Stephen Chow level kind of gags but definitely had some good laughs lol.gif

Disappointed watching this in cinemas. The trailer was promising but the movie didn't deliver. Predictable plot and the characters were so annoying I ended up rooting for the gators tongue.gif

no reviews for Captain America? supposed to be a brave new start for Marvel

Watched this Three Movies this month on Disney Hotstar
1.Ms Marvel
2.Antman And the Wasp Quantumanium
3.DeadPool & Wolverine

ALL this Three movies were incredible.
But my favourite was the Antman and Wasp
The villain of the story is very strong and powerful
The villain name is Kang the Conqueror
I think he listed as top three villains in the MCU universe
Definitely a must watch if have subscribed to Disney hotstar
