Edmilson 7,436 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 The first one received some attention here because it was filmed in the shores of Rio de Janeiro, but overall it's very forgettable. The second one is okay I think and the third... well, I remember seeing it but can't recall anything about plot or characters. Is it the one where Mel Gibson is the villain?

Edmilson 7,436 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Even Barney now is going dark and disturbing! And it's the A24 brand of darkness and disturbingness! Quote Mattel Films executive Kevin McKeon told The New Yorker that the Barney movie is “surrealistic” and in the vein of films directed by Charlie Kaufman and Spike Jonze. Those directors are probably not the first two filmmakers one thinks of when the family-friendly Barney name comes up. “We’re leaning into the Millennial angst of the property rather than fine-tuning this for kids,” McKeon said. “It’s really a play for adults. Not that it’s R-rated, but it’ll focus on some of the trials and tribulations of being 30-something, growing up with Barney—just the level of disenchantment within the generation.” McKeon also described the Barney movie as an “A24-type” movie, adding, “It would be so daring of us, and really underscore that we’re here to make art.” https://variety.com/2023/film/news/daniel-kaluuys-barney-movie-a24-adults-not-r-rated-1235660392/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite the life he's had, all right. Of the many things he's been involved in, I tip my hat to him as a Bond and U2 fan in particular. Was given a 007-branded (produced as a promo tie-in with NTTD, I think) bottle of his Blackwell's Rum for my 50th. Naïve Old Fart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
