Don't worry Han. The worst thing you can do is leave The Flood for months 3 times. I know from experience.

Still a great game, although this has reminded me just how shit the ps2 actually is. I'm not old but I must have had those nostalgia goggles pretty tight not to remember the shit controllers, weird OS, unreliable (8mb) memory cards and the frequency at which it skipped.
I was alright for a 5-9 year old

You're going to go and sleep in the garden?
It's warm in here with all the new blood.

As soon as a trailer reveals a monster, it's a mistake.
Not for Godzilla or King Kong
Yet for Horror movies I'd say this rule applies
I like the particular philosophy of Carpenter. The less you know, and the less you see of something, the more atmosphere, the more tense, the more unease you can build upon.
You can always show your creature. But fleeting glimpses create something special.
A morbid curiosity is generated to want to see what's so terrifying. Not knowing, what something is, but that it is inherently harmful to you, is terrifying.
Not seeing it in full, makes for great tension and immersion.
While I generally agree with you that revealing as little as possible can create some amazing suspense, I don't think it really applies here. The first movie has been out for three years and the villain/monster has already been clearly revealed. Not much of a point in keeping it a secret when everyone who's seen the first installment already knows what the bad guy looks like.
That's true. But I was, also referring to the trailer itself. That same principle should apply to any horror movie trailer. Any movie trailer, in fact.
Look at Terminator Genysis. They just revealed that John Connor was altered by skynet into a new class of lifeform and dropped back in time to fuck everybody's shit up because he agreed that he was something more.
I mean fuck dude. Talk about giving away the entire fucking movie.
Movie trailers & game trailers shouldn't give away the entire story, this happens far too often.

I really enjoyed it but it does start to go downhill after certain spoilery plotpoints etc. Not like Death Note tier nosedive but it gets a little bit dumb.
I agree

Am I the only one getting ads in a banner above the topics?
No, but I don't see them because I have an adblocker.
I bet you devour puppies whole and drink the tears of orphans.
If you don't at least disable adblock for websites you frequent then you are a horrible person.

Why eliminate the possibility of suspense for people who haven't seen the original?
Why needlessly keep up the suspense when the vast majority of people who will go see the movie already know what it's about?
If anything, it's going to result in a backlash of people who won't understand why you're trying to hide an already known villain, or people who go see the movie anticipating something new and different because you seemingly deliberately kept the bad guy a secret, only to find out that it's the exact same one.
Good point If people want to stay surprised they should stay in the dark.

I'll take the dark and gritty superhero movies over the juvenile likes of the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy any day.
Fucking hate this mentality.
They all should have a certain place.
For example Deadpool should be dark and funny, Punisher is dark & gritty, and Superman is nonviolent and just.
We should just be able to have whatever we want. The Avengers is a shit movie because it's a shit movie, not because it's kid friendly.
It's possible for Batman to both be campy and dark, and both are acceptable if done right. I'd argue that Spiderman (raimi ones) was kid friendly but they were some of the best capeshit movies ever made with the exception of the shitty third.
I agree. Your ok, even though you're fresh blood.

just as a film--as a "horror" film, it's not really scary at all
but that's a good thing
The movie's fucking terrifying what are you on?
One of the handful of movies I can say gives me real anxiety as I watch it No jump scares, sure, but that is a good thing.
ikr Nicholson has mastered every genre
I would give the credit more to Kubrick of course, but it wouldn't be the same with out the casting choices.
If Dune ever gets remade who do you think should direct it?
I have never seen or read Dune, but I want to do both.
Best Sci-Fi story I've ever read. I can't recommend it enough. Haven't seen the movie, yet I mainly hear David Lynch dropped the ball.

Mix of both Kubrick was a master Nicholson is still a master
