new fan here sprinting my way through the backlog. coming from a point in time where the 2025 twitchcon drama is still relatively topical, i just wanted to say i'm sorry people can be such freaks. i hope that specific safety issue you mentioned is old news 馃ズ
School Prom: YESTERDAY Absolute gold!
Many low-information Tweets (from that non-Patreon crowd) have taken for granted that Beastly bombed at the box office, but that's SO not true -- worldwide ticket sales exceeded production costs by $25M. Box Office Budget:$17,000,000 (estimated) Opening Weekend USA: $9,851,102, 6 March 2011, Wide Release Gross USA: $27,865,571 Cumulative Worldwide Gross: $43,165,571 <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1152398/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1152398/</a>
You know, I kind of figured it still did well. Speaking from my own situation. I live in a small town and there's not much to do. I see a lot of movies, good or bad. And a good home entertainment system is must here in Mayberry.
from a justjared article around the time of the release of beastly: "Some of the highly anticipated merchandise include bags, wallets, figures and bobbleheads, stickers, patches, magnets, buttons, key chains, bookmarks, board games, fragrances, greeting cards, a novel, t-shirts, hoodies, wall art, mood jewelry, costumes, journals, posters and video games, just to name a few!" ok i HAVE to get a beastly fragrance
I use the Beastly cologne. Chicks dig it.
If you've come this far, you might as well go all the way.
I'm so inspired! I'm going to start a band and call it, "Bus to Machu Picchu." I'm going to write a song called, "Beast-Zoned," and dedicate it to Jenny every time we perform it.
"Hold on to your Jujyfruits! I'm not like those other bruits! Waiting but she never phoned! Getting signs that I'm beast-zoned! Beast-Zoned! It's a witch's curse! Beast-Zoned! Can't get much worse! Beast-zoned! Daddy tossed me out! Beast-zoned! Gonna stomp and shout! So go away, you Frankenskank! I'm still rich and makin' bank! Ain't no Green Party party, hear me moan! Can't find no lovin' in this lonely beast-zone!"
Related to the dialogue #4, I've always really liked Aaron Sorkin shows (West Wing, Sports Night, Newsroom) but I also feel like a LOT of the dialogue is being delivered by an external voice and the characters are rapid firing their parts. Especially in the walk'n'talk scenes.
I wonder if the junkie dad gets a fairy tale ending or is he doomed to failure? Like does Kyle help him get rehab but the dad relapses and dies from an overdose or the dad gets involved with other more dangerous drug dealers and gets shot or maybe he ends up slipping on a box of Lindy's Jujyfruits and breaks his neck?
Maybe he opens his own meth lab like Walter White. I like the stepping on Jujyfruits thing but they're more sticky than slippery. Maybe he runs from the cops or a rival drug lord, steps on the Jujyfruits, and gets stuck to the floor. And before he can untie his shoe to free himself, his adversary fills him with so much lead that they can use his butt for a doorstop.
Suppose the witch used Doctor Strange hand waving to cast her spells. Can you imagine the wrath that would have incurred?
I just looked up the beastly game. It has golf. I'm sold.
I wonder what Beastly's handicap is?
How did this get made also just released an episode on beastly. This is quite possibly the strangest Armageddon-Deep Impact situation of all time.
You can get that Beastly Wii game for about $4 on eBay. Very tempting.
Not a lot of people know this, but no one has ever told Mike Tyson they loved him. It's sad, really.
A kick-ass transformation scene would have done wonders for this flick.
The casting of this movie felt so weird... like "let's just throw in big names cause we have extra money in the budget." I'm not saying the actors were bad but like, they didn't seem to fit their roles particularly well? (Also yay I get to see my name in the credits for the first time!)
When Jenny told us about the Beastly Wii game, all I could think was, "Thank God Nintendo has Super Mario."
You and How Did This Get Made covering this crazy movie in the same week is the most glorious synchronized analyses one could ever ask for!
The Wii game part with the replaced music..... I died laughing. Thank you Jenny for curing my depression
I hope if you ever start that twitch channel it鈥檚 just gonna be you playing horrible movie tie in games. There are sooo many and they are all hilariously bad. You could start with a play through of Beastly, I鈥檇 love to see it!
BEASTZONED!!! I A M N O M O R E
I like his tattoos... so beastly...
The fact that there was a Wii game and that much merch is what baffles me. I never would've guessed.
omg they made a Wii game too!?
I think it's a PSA for the wounded veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan around that time. That's why Hunter has all those urban-combat scenes and is utterly unafraid of bad guys with guns, and it's also why he's dealing with a transformation from Buff Young Arrogant Dude to Tatted Scarred With Metal Fragments, just like you'd get from an IED. I know this sounds like a stretch, but the other films by this director have been about people living with Tourette's, people dealing with the aftermath of suicide, and other forms of Coping With Mental Problems. And that's why the plot holes and weird choices don't matter. For an educational film (like Duck & Cover), it's only important to see someone Kind Of Like You getting a good result from following the good advice, which was delivered *very* *clearly* by Neil Patrick Harris and Mrs. Potts -- don't shut yourself away, go out and meet friends, you can still find love with your new appearance.
This was one big high school ptsd flashback and I loved every second of it.
Beastzoned!! Hahahah One of my favorite bad movies <3
This one just kept getting better!
Oh my god. I have waited so long. Thank you Jenny for this gift from the hellvault of movies.
It鈥檚 here!!
