You either die a Frodo, or live long enough to become a Gollum.

All I can see is Danny DaVito’s Penguin son

Oh fuck, he didn’t drop the ring in after all. He’s still got it!

We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious. They stole it from us! Tricksy little Toxies!

Why is the picture of Andy Serkis without make-up and costuming?

I haven’t heard of this until now and I’m already sold based on this thread title alone

I kind of feel like a big name cast defeats the purpose of Toxic Avenger.

Please tell me this is a Troma brand film.

[–] Faydaikin@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

As far as I'm reading it's 'Troma' and "Legenday Entertainment' doing it.

So I think we can expect some classic Troma shenanigans.

[–] tabris@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Legendary Pictures are producing it, though Uncle Lloyd is on as a producer and has stated he thinks the script is better than the original. Still not sure how I feel about this, as a Troma movie with a budget just doesn't feel right.

Every day Hollywood does something that screams "we don't know how to have an original idea"

[–] gullible@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

If it stays R rated, it might be worth a watch. There isn’t enough ultraviolence being put out these days and a clean toxic avenger movie is tantamount to blasphemy. Surely they won’t repeat the die hard debacle.

Every time i see elijah wood, I see frodo. He will always be frodo till he dies.
