Evil Dead (2013) Comic Con Trailer Footage

Is it my turn? Ok, i'll bite.

The over the top amount of gore was part the comedy But that still doesn't make my point wrong. What are you laughing at during the Lawnmower scene? The gore. THE GORE. That's what makes it funny. Blood shooting in every direction, spurting all over the place to a really insane level.

Django was the same way. And done deliberately. You get the harsh, realistic violence, that makes you look away in disgust, and then you get the comical, over the top cathartic violence, where people just EXPLODE.


And who mentioned Hostel and Saw? Those movies tried and failed to be intense realistic violent movies. (I said failed.) But this movie? I'm not sure yet.

...wait...

Actually, I have no ****ing idea what this argument is about, and why you're getting on my case about it.

Gore isn't funny? Well, **** yeah it is. Or it is to me. When people explode in comical ways, it's great. When Ash gets blasted with 4 gallons of blood in the face from one person is hysterical. When Lionel takes out his lawnmower and decimates the zombies is a riot. Were you trying to say that's not what MADE the movie funny, but was a part of it? Yes. Of course it was. But that doesn't make the that scene unfunny.

I wasn't laughing at the gore during that scene, nor was, I'm willing to bet, 90% of the viewing audience. I was laughing at the absurdity of someone strapping a lawnmower to their person, turning it on and using the open blade to kill zombies. That's not the gore, that's the situation. You're saying the blood splashing on Ash's face was the funny part. Wrong again, it's Ash's reaction to it. If you're laughing at the sheer amounts of blood, you missed the whole point of the scene and you're pretty naive to assume that's the whole point (the gore). You're making some huge misconceptions here, incorrectly attempting to link films together and as I said earlier, it's bordering on some seriously Nova-esque defense of this film.

^ Actually, i'm not defending this film just yet. I'm saying the script is good, and the movie has a chance.

But, i'm defending that gore is hilarious. And that's why the scene is funny. Maybe, you personally don't find gore funny. And that's fine. But I do. If it's done in a comical way.

I have no idea if this movie is going to work. The script is fun. But that doesn't mean the movie is already great. They could've changed everything.

So, I think your agression is overused here.

There's no aggression, just laughter at your absurdity.

 

[CelticPredator]

That I enjoyed the script? Or that I find over the top gore funny?

Nam is right,

The gore in itself is not funny, the situation makes the gore funny, it is so ridiculous that you cannot help but laugh. Sure the gore helps the scene but what makes it funny is how over the top and ridiculous it becomes. Not the gore itself because gore is not funny. You don't see people laughing at movies that have a lot of blood and guts, you laugh at the situation in itself.

This movie is not a black comedy or a horror comedy or anything like that.

 

[CelticPredator]

Well, people were cracking up during Django Unchained every time someone exploded.

 

[Ramatuelle]

This is all irrelevant, because the ED remake is not going to be played for laughs. Its not intended to be a funny film, as the trailers make plain.

Gore played for laughs is stupid, to me. I tolerated Army of Darkness because I liked Ash. [Still do]. His one-liners won me over much later. This film was a special case.

But films like Dead Alive.... not funny, just stupid. I do not for one instant believe this remake is going to be anything like that. Nor do such films mean that all gore is funny. No offense meant to those of you who liked Dead Alive, tastes differ.

Its not usually funny at all. I certainly didnt find Hostel funny. Nor Saw. Or that Hills Have Eyes remake. That last was so repugnant we turned it off. Realistic rapes are not amusing on any level.

I like my horror serious, if its funny its not horror.

This debate sucks, because it's a subjective debate. There's no point, and pointless agression for no real reason.

Nothing sucks worse then blackmask though.

[CelticPredator]

That's what I thought, sucky.

 

[crows]

That's what I thought, sucky.

doesn't mean a lot coming from you. You like to argue for argument's sake, no matter what subject. You get on these long rants that go on for pages at a time lol even when people prove that you are completely wrong sometimes you need to always have the last word.

tell you what, Whatever you say right now I won't answer back. I'll let you have the last word, how 'bout that? ok buddy?

(and I wasn't talking about this thread specifically, I was talking in general, and you like to argue a lot and get into these insane long and pointless fights to defend your view, so when you say I "suck" doesn't mean much because then you kinda suck as well lol)

 

[CelticPredator]

Meh to everything in this thread.

 

[ironwez20]

Hey Celtic ! Avatar rules bro ! It's simply a masterpiece !

Ah good times.

 

[CelticPredator]

goodtimes indeed.

This debate isn't subjective at all, and I'm sure many people feel the same way. You can't even try and tell me that the gore in this remake is meant to be "funny." It looks super realistic, and the characters reactions seem to be completely serious. If you laugh at things like the girl cutting her tongue in half, you're a freak.

I don't see "pointless aggression" anywheres here, people were having a calm discussion re their viewpoints on this film. Methinks "pointless aggression" is standing in for "people disagreeing with me, even if politely," but whatevs.

So! Looking forward to seeing this movie on the big screen, for better or worse.

It's the same stance Nova and another newb who I'm not allowed to mention anymore, take when people post their dislike for ASM. Most of the time CP's a cool cat, but here, for some reason, he's being obstinate.
