Maybe they’ll ban it too since Eddy goes white faced.

I watched it because it was free. Waste of time. Should have read a book.

Further evidence that Hollywood ran out of original ideas in the 70’s.

It like watching The Brady Bunch grow elderly in a new sitcom..... “I know! Let’s put on a show!”...............

“...stale nostalgia bait”

Great (and accurate) characterization.

It’s on Amazon Prime. We started watching it last evening but only got about ten minutes into before agreeing it was not funny crap and stopped it. We found another movie on Prime instead.

I don’t know how Hollywood is going make movies anymore without offending someone or without all of them being propaganda flops.

I considered watching a Hollywood Entertainment Production, but then I look out back and see the weeds growing and the dog crap accumulating and I realize it will be more entertaining to clean it up.

What you’ll do is watch a moving rainbow on the screen for ninety minutes and leave saying how wonderful the experience was.

I liked it. It was cool to see faces from the past.

Saw the first one once when it came out, found it mildly amusing, did not ever watch it again. I’ll pass on the new one.

It was bad but Wesley Snipes was great.

I like that Eddie is making movies again, but I would have thought they could have offered him a new character.
The studio is desperate for a Slam Dunk hit, coming out of the pandemic, but they don’t want to take many risks.

They probably bombarded Eddie with storms of money and finally wore his resistance down.
I’m in no hurry to see it, as I don’t expect anything new, but others may support it.

Not showing it in theaters may be a big mistake.
Nothing beats a huge, dark physical theater to put your problems on hold for the next two hours.

I watched it and they even have scene in there about Hollywood originals, remakes and Part 2’s and 3’s.

I thought it was okay but it couldn’t touch the original

The first one was hilarious. Rarely do sequels ever match the original.

“Wipers!!!”

Blacks have structure. That’s the message I got in the first one.
