Let's give Addie a round of applause for surviving The New Mutants (2020) and for completing the entire X-Men saga. 👏👏 Happy Wednesday. This was the first movie that my girlfriend & I saw in IMAX, after the theaters reopened during the pandemic, and we both actually enjoyed it, due to the film's horror elements, in spite of its quality slump. Like I said before, she & I are horror fans. Those creatures that attacked Illyana & Sam are known as the Smiley Men. To be honest, I actually enjoy Deadpool (2016) & Deadpool 2 (2018) a lot more.

Rich

I'm sorry you put yourself through this one

The Dingo

Agreed. Bad movie.

Fawks

Props. Even I've never sat through this one.

Phil Stubblefield

Thanks for letting me know, Addie and friends. Now I don't have to waste my time... 😁

Chris

I love Anya Taylor-Joy, but yea, I wasn't a big fan either 😂

Michael Bergeron

I’m surprised people told you to skip Beverly Hills Cop 3, especially since you liked Billy so much, but didn’t tell you to skip this movie. This one was probably a waste of your time.

Cole Jennett

Oh yeah, this was not necessary for you to have seen. It was pretty bad, agreed.

Byrd N. Hand

One sprawling superhero franchise down, one to go. Honestly, after subjecting yourself to this, I'd say you have no excuse for not continuing some of these other movie franchises you've left dangling so far (unless you plain just don't want to)... 🤨 Anyway, on a brighter note, I look forward to your presumed "Hacksaw Ridge" reaction on Friday. 👍 (I'm guessing you're having trouble with your "Braveheart" edit, since it's not yet up on YouTube? 🤔)

Byrd N. Hand

Well, I'm not sure if she deliberately skipped it, or just hasn't gotten around to watching it yet. But, yes, after this, she's got no excuse for not finishing that trilogy, or continuing on with at least the third "Terminator" movie, second and third "Matrix" movies, etc. (Of course, I thought the same thing after she watched all the Disney Star Wars stuff...)

Michael Bergeron

Yeah I just seem to remember her saying people told her to watch 2 but not 3. And I know some people don’t like 3 since it leans into the comedy more, but it’s still a good fun movie. But yeah I agree in general. I think Terminator 3 is worth watching, I actually think that movie has a great overall story just not executed well. And also while none of the other Matrix movies come close to the first, they are still decent movies too.

I honestly had no idea any xmen films existed past "Logan" 😂 Fridays Hacksaw Ridge reaction will make us all forget this movie again anyway. 😆

Luis Fernandez

Pretty bad movie, but after watching 647 different X-Men films, it would've been a shame to skip it. This way you got to suffer through it with the rest of us! The best part of this movie was when I searched for "new" and decided to watch "The Emperor's New Groove" next. So it isn't all bad.

Steve SG-1

Pretty sure she said before that those movies caused a lot of copyright claims problems so she stay away from them.

Alex Tan

I would also love to see Addie watch The Mummy Returns (2001) & The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008) and Men in Black 2 & 3 as well.

Michael Cruse

I first read the New Mutant comics that this movie is kinda sorta based on more than 30 years ago, and I re-read them every 5 years or so. Absolutely brilliant example of visual storytelling. I give the makers of this movie props for having the courage to swing for the fences again and again in putting their own stamp on a legend. I just wish they hadn't whiffed so much. I have always loved these five kids and one dragon (yes, even Berto), and I feel like the actors did a good job of bringing them to life. Dani and Rahne together were really sweet together, and it was refreshing to see an unapologetic same-sex relationship in a superhero movie. Making Ilyana a racist mean girl was an unfortunate choice, but when she pulled out the armor and sword and put herself between the Demon Bear and her friends I was like "Yes, that's my girl!" And, um, well, wish I had more good things to say about it. But I don't.

Another horror movie that features slasher smiles as a horror element is Smile (2022). My girlfriend & I saw it in theaters last September and it was very scary but we did enjoy it. But I do NOT recommend that movie to you for Halloween because it WILL scare you, like... a lot. A lot more than The Shining (1980) did. A 40-second trailer for Smile (2022) played before Top Gun: Maverick (2022) and if you saw that movie in theaters, you would've closed your eyes and covered your ears when that trailer played.

Alex Tan

BTW, will there be a comedy poll soon? I would love to help you decide on a light-hearted movie for you to watch after Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023), The New Mutants (2020), and later, Hacksaw Ridge (2016) soon.

Julian San

Lmao Addie not holding back. She said it wasn’t her favorite like 3 or 4 times in the outro 🤣

Billy Dancel

Illyana Rasputin is the sister of Piotr Rasputin, aka Colossus. In the Deadpool movies, we get Colossus with the Russian accent. In the X-Men movies we got Peter (Colossus) without an accent. I don’t even remember any trailers or anything for this movie. It was very strange. At least we can mark it off the list. Take care of yourself, Addie!!

Late to the party, as usual... This movie suffered from a lot of unfortunate issues, despite having the incomparable Anya Taylor-Joy and Maisie Williams of Game of Thrones fame. Risky attempt at a mutant horror movie, questionable writing, less than good acting overall (even the heavy hitters seemed to phone it in). And then it was released during the pandemic so it got almost no marketing, and thus crappy box office. Don't expect to see another New Mutants movie any time soon. All of it a shame.
