1. digger : huh?
2. Dune : book was boomer crap, first movie (80s) was crap, didnt see the first of these new ones wont watch this.
3. Sheep in the box: another android gone berserk movie...seriously?
4. Possible Love: hate relationship dramas of any kind
5. Bucking Fastard: Mmmm...doenoef...depends which way he took it. Its not a comedy its a drama so probably no.
6. The Odyssey: We know its a good story so it would be worth seeing. Im not the kind that pays too much attention to actors and wish movies had unknowns. My hate for Matt Damon is somewhat tempered by Anne and Tom. Despite Matts presence I will see this one, there should be some exceptional action and adventure provided it doesnt somehow get DEIed.
7. Too little information
8. Coyote vs Acme : has potential, that could be really good and it could be trash. This just has too much potential for activism that could sink it.
9. I Love Boosters: Calims to be Comedy, Science Fiction. Im going to have to wait for the trailers. If this is part of a well known story then I missed it. Potential for activism.
10. Minotaur: relationship “drama”, never, no way in hell
Thats the “top” ten.
11. Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die : scifi, action, adventure. About the only way this could go wrong is if they made just a less violent remake of Terminator. Definitely will see.
14. Wildwood: Will almost certainly see this with the little ones as long as the lead isnt a Mary Sue and they dont DEI.
18. On Land and Sea: Its a drama but the kind that has potential to draw one into the story. Will likely see this one.
19. Fjord: Maybe. As long as the Romanians arent poor gypsies being picked on by evil ultra white Norwegians then yes.
23. The Dog Stars: Ridley Scott, Science Fiction, Adventure, and survivors searching. I dont remember talking to him but he must have written this for me.
26. Disclosure Day: The dishonest marketing has already turned me off as though Spielberg needs my money. It seems to be one of those movies trying to trick dumbasses into believing that there is some sort of answers within. Wont see it out of principle.
36. Project Hail Mary: Seems kind of silly but I think I will likely see this one. I was surprised how much I liked The Martian (same author) and Spaceman. I suspect by the trailer that this in one that will tickle that same spot. The close intimate shots of the almost certainly doomed everyman suddenly thrust into an epic vastness full of potential I would think speaks to nearly all males.
37. Werwulf: Maybe, offhand Im not familiar with anything else done by this director. The setting of the story is interesting and the type of story is one that Im attracted to but horror genre movies can go either way. The jump scare splatter slasher movies are pointless and irritating, I can sit at home and squirt ketchup on the walls for far less money.
42. Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma : If this were a comedy with this title then it would be a must. Queer slasher horror is a definite no.
43. Out of This World: Oh for Christ sakes! I dont know this story or author but I suspect this is for anyone that thought the Israel First Zeepers couldnt be any more clueless or antagonistic. Ill wait to see the trailers but Im pretty sure this propaganda is going to wind up in the same trash can as the queer slasher.
I looked at some of the other “anticipated” movies presented in some videos and elsewhere. It looks like overall there are some real stinkers heading our way and that should allow for the better ones on this list to really do well.
There are always plenty of stinkers in the pipeline. But most aren’t terrible; they’re just meh. That’s always been the case. We can’t compare every year’s output to our GOAT lists.
A very, very few movies are truly great. More are solid to pretty good. Finding those is always the challenge. Given that most people are going to do a fair amount of watching, we want RightWorld movies to be solid presences.
The way to beat woke garbage is to present better alternatives. The snowballing overconcentration of the industry is a problem because the bigger the company, the more attractive it is as a target for the activists and the pols. A concentrated industry will be a politicized industry. We need to keep the indies alive.
The woke commissars can’t do much to the writer-director teams of one on low budget movies that stand or fall on ticket sales and butts in seats.
P.S. You are high on Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t. So am I. But be aware that this is a classic scrappy, low budget indie movie. All the big studios passed, apparently because it is non-PC and wrings comedy out of some things that will offend the Karens. So the filmmakers scratched for funding and were relentless in keeping costs down.
All of which is great in my book.
But the promotional budget is low as well. This will depend heavily on word of mouth. See it early. If you like it, spread the word. I love it when a scrappy indie movie that the big players were too risk averse, or too PC, to tackle, becomes a breakout hit.
A low budget movie doesn’t need huge numbers at the box office to be a huge success for the filmmakers. Small bets, prudently managed, and a great return. Very old school.
