Anyway, anybody seen the new Naked Gun movie? I hear it’s pretty good.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I've heard that as well but haven't seen it yet, I opted for nobody 2.

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Is the first one any good? I don’t like to jump straight into sequels without the obligatory background from the first ones.

[–] AlecSadler@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago

The first one has one of my favorite scenes in a movie ever.

The second one is more of the same and I enjoyed it, but it didn't quite surprise/hit like the first.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yup, really good. Like if John wick is a scalpel, this guy is a rusty machete. And John wick started over a puppy and a classic car, well, this guy starts his rampage over a "kitty cat bracelet" it's on Amazon prime.

Holy fuck! I’m not done yet, but holy fuck!

The sequel doesn't wait 20 mins to go hard.

Edit: you missed like 10 clicks lol. "Thank you for your service" lol

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Stop. It’s not nice to tease. 😉

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I have to say that is the most interesting critique of a movie I’ve seen in quite some time. You’ve piqued my interest.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's good, watch it. Bob Odenkirk is great as always. Haven't seen the second one yet though.

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I’m watching it right now and John Wick better watch out! 🤣

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

My coworkers have spoken well about the second one too (haven't seen it yet but plan to). It's always great to see saul goodman getting his revenge.

[–] lennybird@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Haven't yet. But saw the new Superman. I liked the part where (SPOILER) Bibi is dropped from the sky lol

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's mildly amusing. Neeson is fantastic. There are really only two LOL jokes and they give one away in the trailer.

The other one is even more subversive than that one...

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I would say that's sort of the style of Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker films. Airplane! was the same way, with a whole bunch of chuckle jokes throughout and then a few moments of genuinely laughing (at least in my experience)
