The wild things twist is actually very smart. The best twist are those when they are revealed in the end,they show you all the things ,you didnt see,and you actually start to think of everything you have watched

Wild Things isn't dumb. It's trashy, for sure, but that's part of why it's good to watch.

The twists in Wild Things are the point of the movie. The audience saw women kissing and sex and got terribly distracted

The twist at the end of Saw V is that the guy who survives an inescapable trap doing the most badass move in the series ends up dying because he thought the thing that would save him was another deathly trap😊

"Wild Things" is a masterpiece! A few years after its release, I stumbled upon the script. Brilliant! Schlocky, stupid, yet smart. Richards had a run in the late 1990's with a bunch of them (looking at you "Starship Troopers") I even enjoyed "Valentine".

@TheDrexxus Ай бұрын

The Twilight ending "twist" was not clever. It was the author wanting to act like a battle actually had stakes and deaths and stuff but without actually killing any of the characters because they were too scared of alienating the fanbase. It was as bad as comic book plot lines where death never matters because there is a 1,000 ways to bring someone back. Anything from magic, to clones, to literal gods/spirit entities, to time travel. Death only matters if the plot demands that it matter, like Injustice. They just conveniently forget all the ways they can bring people back if the plot wants someone to stay dead. This is something that always pissed me off about Star Trek. I think in every Star Trek series that there has ever been, there is always at least ONE episode where major characters get killed off, only for it to be a fakeout because its some time loop or something stupid like that that brings them back so it doesn't matter. It's false stakes where they want to milk drama where no drama can actually exist because the creators are too afraid of hurting the IP by killing off characters.

Thank you for appreciating the Breaking Dawn twist. All other videos hate it but it was a brilliant way to inject some action without completely deviating from the book. I feel like everyone that hates the twist just hates the books/movies entirely.

The twist in The Boy makes the movie actually creepy, because all the weird stuff that has been happening while the babysitter was sleeping or in the shower is a guy living in the walls. It's kind of nightmare fuel.

@MaxWeb2599 Ай бұрын

Why the heck is breaking dawn on the list? everyone, including whatculture itself said it was the dumbest part in the whole franchise. Even Jules sounds like he have no idea why the twist isn't stupid and only praised the fight itself, that in the end never happened.

@roslolian11 Ай бұрын

Why is it dumb though? For vampires with psychic abilities it makes sense they can foresee what will happen and decide its not worth it. Film wise it allows you to have epic fight scenes with people dying left and right but still have a happy ending.

@MaxWeb2599 Ай бұрын

@@roslolian11 because it's like the "everything is just a dream" thing that's haunted TV series since decades. When you see the death of known characters you can't help but feel something, either by being sad that beloved characters die, being happy that a hated one die or simply getting an adrenaline shot from the fight and then getting the reveal that nothing was real makes it for the watchers so pointless to get invested in the movie. It's the feeling nothing mattered and you got scammed by filmmakers laughing at you for getting attached. Wanting to have an epic fight where is nothing is on the line is like wanting to watch a movie just to see special effects. Plus let's just forget the battle didn't existed for a moment(cause it didn't), all that's happen in the climax is the Protagonist saying "we are going to win" and the villain said "OK I understand, I concede". And like I said hear Jules comment on the scene, highly euphoric and entertaining while on the other hand sounding, while explaining what happens after, like he wants to convince himself that it's make sense.

@roslolian11 Ай бұрын

@@MaxWeb2599 But like I said thats a way you can have an epic battle without violating what happens in the novels. From what I understand in the novel thats what happens the Volturi come, the Cullens were nah she is a hybrid and then the Volturi leave. So this is a way to have the epic battle thats been hyped since part 1 but still not break canon. if they didnt have the vision thing, the movie will be boring AF with all that stuff for nothing or they make that battle real and suddenly its just fan fiction and not the twilight series the author made.

@nikitaaverin 27 күн бұрын

@@MultiNotAnti That one I kind of saw coming (if you are referring to the one that plays out in the end). I early noticed that throughout the movie, certain props felt very…um…dated. First thought that those were mistakes. But after a while, while realising that those “mistakes” were sprinkled all over the place, I was just like “Oh! Oooooooh!” So I shut off my brain and just waited for a major thing that would make the flick go full-circle. Love the franchise and I love that they made some details that just were hovering in the background, but I wouldn’t consider it a twist. Simply clever world-building.

I don't think Orphan counts as a dumb movie. It seemed like a take on a famous horror cliche and it seemed like it would be predictable, but it was able to feel unnerving, and it was serious without being campy and then the twist felt genuine and scary. Just my opinion I suppose. 😅

@draygoon69 Ай бұрын

I feel this is another video in which the writers need to talk with each other. Pretty sure I've seen videos on this channel calling out the twist from The Boy as bad. I don't think I've ever seen anyone call Friday the 13th dumb. Sausage Party and Scary Movie are just dumb including the "twist". Some may find them entertaining, but they are still pretty stupid.

Yeah, the Twilight "twist" isn't genius, it is lazy as hell. It is very much a practical demonstration of wanting to have your cake and eat it by both killing off the characters in "cool" ways and also keeping them alive. Genius it is most definitely not.

I love Saw V, it's my favourite of the franchise, and it did have a twist, albeit a small one. The people in the traps could have all survived by cooperating instead they chose to assume that each room required someone to die which I thought was a great idea in a franchise full of gore and 'only one can live' stakes and the occasional inescapable traps. Lol I could talk to people about Saw all day

@Shadowcat753 8 күн бұрын

I'll vote for Saw 6's twist being better than the lack of twist in Saw 5. The first time you watch the movie, you think William Easton's family is likely the mother-son duo trapped in a literally cage throughout the movie, but nope in the last 15 minutes. Rather his family is his journalist sister in the other cage and the mother-son duo are the family of someone that literally died due to one of Easton's decisions related to health insurance. Furthermore, this duo gets the final trap choice on if William Easton gets to survive or not, which is really weird for a Saw movie. Honestly, I'm on the son's side here on William getting injected in the back with a ton of acid - I hate people that go "preexisting condition" as a reason to literally give people a death sentence via lack of help with healthcare.

I love Doofy. He's pretended to be special needs for decades just to commit mass murder. Breaking Dawn having the fight be a premonition was the biggest cop out ever. Instead of a decent ending, with numerous characters dead or dying, it was all a 'what would happen if ...' dream. Pure cowardice by the director. Never watched the movie, but I used to work at Best Buy, and this shit film was on all the time. Once you found out it never happened, all momentum was lost forever. Imagine if Harry Potter died when Voldemort hit him with the Death Spell after seeing his family. No resurrection, no revival. Just a dead Harry Potter and Voldemort marching towards Hogwarts We would all view the series much differently. Would Neville step up and stop Voldemort? Would Voldemort win and take over Hogswarts? Either way, and the whole series goes sideways.
