Harry failing to live up to his reputation as a great detective might also not be helped by the fact that this story assumes that you've seen him work through multiple previous cases, perhaps as many as six. Bad decisions all around.

@@DrZuluGamingWell, the problem there is that the Paddington books are all novel-length (even though they’re pretty much all just collections of stories), and Peter Rabbit is just a short picture book. It’s always a big risk when you try to adapt a picture book that’s far better suited to a half-hour special into a feature-length movie. I think they only time I’ve seen that done really well is the 1995 Jumanji.

I can confirm the thing with Val Kilmer. I recently saw him at an event in New Orleans, and you can tell he's been hitting some rough patches as of late. He seems to be doing a bit better, but he still kinda sounds like Marlon Brando with a sinus infection, mainly due to his tongue being swollen. In fact, he even joked that he had a "Pontiac in his throat". But yea, doesn't make sense that they'd cast him in this role when he's clearly still in the midst of recovering from throat cancer and can barely talk!

Ah, that's actually a good bit of information to hear and actually heartwarming to hear. A lot of people, myself included, were wondering WHY Val was in the movie just to have his voice badly ADRed in the end since we knew of his cancer treatment. In hindsight, I wonder if the same effect could have been gained had they shown that the character Val was playing was ill as well (not exactly the same thing he's going through) or at the very least they could have had someone do a better job on his dubbing. At least we know there were good intentions but wow, the movie still came out bad.

The only possible explanation I can give for the silly snowman drawings is it's maybe a reference to Keith Hunter Jesperson also known as the "Happy Face Killer" as he was known to draw happy faces on letters he sent to the media and prosecuters. Oh don't get me wrong the letters with the Snowman look incredibly silly to where I can’t take it seriously, but that's the only possibility I have on what the filmmakers were making a subtle reference to. Granted this is coming from someone who has not seen The Snowman and only heard it was a colossal mess.

It really bums me out when a long-running book-series with a rather solid fanbase fails to launch in movie form due to sheer incompetence. I feel really bad for fans of the Harry Hole series. But I also feel that they shouldn't give up hope. Maybe one day, hopefully soon, someone will decide to go the Sherlock route with the good detective and make a Harry Hole TV series, with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in the lead role. There are plenty of examples where failed movies found new life as TV shows - Buffy, Supergirl, Constantine, Daredevil, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Green Lantern; if they can do it, why not Harry Hole? On another note, next time Sean's gonna be exploring the origins of the Razzies? Sweet! I hope it's a double feature. Also, while we're on the subject of movies that the Razzies overlooked, Sean should really give Alien: Covenant a good tongue-lashing. Seriously, how did that pile of Xenomorph dung get away scott-free?! Sean's right - Razzies, you really fucked up this time!

The Shining wasn't particularly well-received on release. Noteworthy is that Roger Ebert didn't care for it at first, but the film eventually made it to his "Great Movies" list. I agree that The Shining nominations were idiotic in hindsight, especially nominating Kubrick for Worst Director. WTF. And then Shelley Duvall for Worst Supporting Actress, like, okay, she's just crying out in fear the whole movie, but what exactly was she supposed to do? And then two years later they nominated The Thing for Worst Musical Score, for a score that's perfectly appropriate for a horror film. Wow.

To be fair, over the issue of the fifth novel being turned into a movie, the first James Bond novel is Casino Royale and was published in 1953. The first theatrically released film was Dr. No in 1962, the sixth novel in the series. Some books it's okay to pick and choose the order if there isn't much of a connecting plot between novels. With all that said, watch James Bond over this shit.

Aside from the famous 15 percent of script being cut the film messed up in 3 huge ways. 1. they didn't actually adapt the book and re-wrote almost all of it 2. Jo Nesbo is actually really funny and his books are filled with very black humour due to the fact that although he loves his work he doesn't take the material too serious, example he point out in the book the a snowman is kind of silly as a calling card where as here its played dead straight along with the rest of the characters and screen elements 3. Thomas is a famously maticulise director and this has made notorious and is the reason he hasn't made a film since tinker. they gave him no time and no budget and it uses the film to have great locations but a clearly rushed shoot and post production

So nice to see at least one reviewer acknowledge that the character's name isn't pronounced "hole" in its original language.

I have been a suscriber of this channel for years, and you know what? I really like your videos, Sean. I really do. I would like you to consider making videos about videogames. I kinda think you are into that and it would be really cool to see you talking about videogames

I honestly originally thought that was Harry watching his mom get bitchslapped by her fuckbuddy at the beginning. Also, I’m kinda lucky I watched this movie to have some perspective of what actually went on since this was more an analysis of fail than point by point. Noting that Harry twice misses a very rare song, Popcorn, being played in the movie to identify the killer right then and there is but one example.

The fact that the film is literally unfinished as well as the negative reception made me feel that it was at least going to get a nomination for the Razzies. Certainly moreso than _Baywatch_ .

You forget the razzies are vote by people how don't watch the movies and choose it more on what's the most popular bad movie to make fun of there hacks the fact there's no screening that anyone that can pay the membership fee

Baywatch was just an over the top movie. So that got a nomination but CHiPs didn't? At least with Baywatch, you could make a few adjustments and make it enjoyable. CHiPs felt like it was made to capitalize on a movie like 21 Jump Street without making it a good buddy cop comedy and nobody had any kind of chemistry at all. What did anyone expect? Similar to A Million Ways To Die In the West, Dax Sheppard had way too much involvement and it came out even more sloppier than anything.

My best guess is the reason behind changing the killer's backstory was an attempt to make the character more sympathetic, making him more of a victim who turned to murder.

I first saw trailers to this movie before I saw Dunkirk last year. As soon as the trailer said "From the producers of......." I knew it wasn't going to be good. Read an article saying a trailer mentioning the producers is going to be bad.

The Razzies really missed their chance on this one. Not only is it horrible and well deserving of a nomination, but it would have been rather funny to have it win and then pressent it with an award that was only 85% complete.

Would have been really funny if Michael Fassbender himself showed up to accept the award. He seems like a good sport about the movies he appears in.

Jason Haradyn No, but he did three other Shyamalan movies: “Lady in the Water,” “The Last Airbender,” and “After Earth.” He might do “The Happening,” but right now he’s doing the Razzie list thing...so it may take a while.
