He does have a point, not many people get to make the movie that they've wanted to make since they were kids. It may not be a *good* movie that comes out of it, but you gotta respect when someone's able to achieve a dream like that. It's a passion project for them, clearly.
@@Swordsman1425I suppose that is true if as a child you dreamed of low effort cash grabs built on the back of other people's works. If you are going to do something like this it actually needs to be a good movie, otherwise you're just making garbage to cash in on recognizable characters others built (even in the unlikely chance that wasn't your intent).
I think the AI controversy is putting off a lot of people. I haven't seen many people reviewing that movie (although I haven't really looked that hard either). I'm more confused as to why he hasn't reviewed Love Lies Bleeding yet.
The honey jar head thing would’ve been so easy too, just have a scene of pooh sitting a head on a shelf and putting a ‘honey’ label on it.. fun little link, that simple.
It’s weird that people think they need to make dark versions of fairy tales when most of the fairy tales are dark to begin with they just get watered down by Disney and other companies and people just take that as the definitive version
The fairy tales are dark under the surface, they suggest stuff, or make it minor. These movies, they want to make it in your face. These movies are supposed to be dark and offputting first and foremost. The fairy tales… You only sense that there is something slightly iffy.
@@borek92Objectively untrue. Cinderella originally involved eyes getting plucked from skulls and one of the step sisters cutting flesh off their feet so they could fit into the slippers.
Potential Tigger kill: *comes up from behind, puts one hand over the victim's mouth* Tigger: "T." *slashes across the throat* Tigger: "I." *cuts down the throat* Tigger: "Double -" *lifts hand off the victim mouth to have them choke-gurgle ('guh-guh'), followed by an 'er' as they fall over*
If I were to make a horror version of Tigger, I would make sure to incorporate his bouncing to some capacity. Maybe his first appearance has him giggling from the shadows and whoever he's chasing is unable to get away from the giggling only for him to leap out and kill them. Could have him sing a variant of "Eny, meeny, minny moe" while pursuing a group before killing one of them, just replacing tiger with Tigger. Could have it that he prefers to kill by jumping onto someone with enough force to cause major injury. Leap into someone from high up and crush the head or torso upon impact. I think there is some stuff that can be done, didn't take me long to think those up.
See? THIS is what i wanted from these movies Pooh drowning somebody in Honey before saying "oh bother" Tigger bouncing someone to death Fuckin... Have somenody get stuck in a hole so Gopher can show up and kill them Its never gonna be a serious horror movie but it could be a hilarious parody. Even though this looks better i just look at what they do with the characters and it feels like the extent of their creativity is a generic slasher flick featuring characters that... Kinda sorta have traits of the Winnie the Pooh characters.
Oh, oh, I just thought of a great dark twist on three tales, sure they've already been done but.. 1. Cinderella but ala Willard/Psycho ala she uses Mice and rats as like a reverse Pied Piper to eat her victims because the wicked step mother broke her brain. 2. a re-telling of the Jungle Book but Mowgli went true Feral, cannibal, blood thirsty practically a werewolf rampaging through the jungle 3. Snow White was a vampire the whole time and that's why she's described as pale white and bloody red lips
🔥 I had been playing around with a Hansel and Gretel horror idea where after they escape from the witch and believe that she burned to death... The witch plots revenge and almost a decade later traps one of the siblings in a psychological prison (the witches power is illusion so think Mysterio but dark and twisted) and the other one has to rescue the sibling in some dark Life or death game which is various parts Escape Room, Squid Game and Jumanji...
@@ArmyWolves oh, or what about a what if in which the Witch technically won by eating Hansel but Gretel survived by killing her with her own cooking but now Gretel can’t stop cooking and feeding people to each other because she’s become the new Witch but is also a super health nut who loathes the sight of anything sweet or fattening
I love the second idea because the original story was based on a tiger that was going around eating people in India, Mowgli could be a feral child eating people with a tiger.
Poohniverse, sounds like what happens in my bathroom sometimes, I used to call it, “Liquid Arse”, but I think “Pooniverse” may be more fitting on some occasions 😅
I really liked the first one. It felt so cool and grindhouse. Not art but Tobe Hooper. I think a lot of what was lacking here was laid out in the first one. Don't know if you'd like it but I really enjoyed it.
I wanted to see this but it didn’t get a local release for me. My local theaters are really dropping the ball on scheduling. I missed the first one not knowing it was a single show only.
So now we´ve had remakes of old movies, sequels of old movies three decades after they ended, unasked-for prequels, reboots of old movies, remakeboots of old movies, and I guess now the bottom of the pile is horror reimaginations of old childhood books.
I'm never gonna see this movie as I avoid horror/slasher films genre like a plague due to nightmare fuel. But Jeremy, for the love of Netflix & chill, please review _Three Body Problem_ as soon as you can. It's already out and generating mostly rave reviews. I saw it right as it debut then immediately jumped onto the Tencent (Chinese) version. Just finished my binge, and I think the Netflix show did it better with a tighter script. GoT showrunners D&D managed to keep the essence of the book (as most book readers will attest), but they did borrow heavily from the Tencent version for a few key scenes. You're reviews are awesome. I always look to them first before other YT critics. Cheers and thanks!
Hey Jeremy, love your content, noticed you’re not doing reviews of allot of shows recently. Wishing I’d be able to get your take on love lies bleeding and immaculate. Just letting you know I was searching for it!
Just because a beloved wholesome IP goes free use, doesn't mean you should pervert it for money. You can, but it's like saying "it's a free country" when you take someones seat on the bus.
The most frustrating part of the whole thing isn't even the played out idea of childhood characters turned into horror, it's that none of the awesome tips like Jeremy gives here are really making it into the product. There's so much spirit that could be there and make the idea legit worth the damn money and effort, but it's exhausting for everyone when it feels like it's just made for the sake of it
The only reason I knew about the blood code for MK on the SNES was because my dad felt compelled to buy the strategy guide for some reason lol luckily it included all the cheat codes
This movie did something I have never seen before. Taking its less than stellar predecessor and using it as a plot device as a movie in the movie! That is genius
Loved your review, especially the mention of Mortal Kombat Armageddon. I enjoyed Blood & Honey 2 for what it is. Wasn't expecting much, but I had a fun time. Not the greatest slasher nor the worst.
@Jeremy Felt like the movie had better kills in the first movie, Winnie had a better identity in the first one to his respective animal and was more lacking in this one(his design improved a lot though), but had excelled in every other aspect in this new movie. I'd still watch the next one though.
We ALL had that friend who told us that SNES Mortal Kombat had a blood code. Also, i laughed when Jeremy used his own head for the honey pot. Nice touch
never would I have imagined you reviewing a movie sponsored by Fathom Events, wow, this is a first. look at you, coming out of your comfort zone. proud of ya, dude. those movies were still better than Imaginary!
I had lots of fun with this one. It was just ridiculous stupid fun but I will agree they do ping pong between the serious and the absurd in odd ways. But yes, I am intrigued to see how this series of films goes 😂
Oh boy, I can't wait for Bambi to only be a guy wearing a mask, who has no personality and just kills people in the least creative ways- and the same for all the other characters
They Definitely Missed their Opportunity of turning Tigger in to a Joker Like Crazed Unhinged Killer, which would sort of goes with his Over Hyperness of his Cartoon Counter Part.
Here’s my three-step plan on how to be a millionaire. Step 1- take the source material from a brothers Grimm fairytales. Step 2 - take that fucked up source material and sell it to young kids. Step 3 - take the source material that advertises to young kids and make a horror movie out of it.
Thank you! This is what I've been saying for years. The killer versions of Winnie the Pooh and Co should still feel and look like the cuddly creatures on the surface. It would make things infinitely scarier but brilliantly more whimsical. Let them lure victims into their traps ala Chucky. And explain why nobody believes Christopher Robin no matter what he says and shows.
It seems the creators took criticism of the first movie seriously and put effort into making a better product. Gotta commend them for that. General consensus of this film seems to be: Lean into the camp and silliness, give the monsters more lines/personality and incorporate more elements of the source material. Pretty much every review I’ve seen mentions this, so if the creators take that to heart and make those adjustments they will have serious cult classics and probably make even more money
I liked it. It's not 'Citizen Kane,' but I found it entertaining. I like how it threw a little shade at the first movie. I'd also be down for Jeremy Jahns writing and directing the next one (replacing the honey jars with heads would be genius).
I support any creator out there, with a small budget, trying to do something different and weird, who is passionate about what they're doing, rather than just making some 'by the numbers' nostalgia baiting boring rubbish like we're used to getting from the big corpos these days... That said, this doesn't sound like a great movie. But hey, just because it's not great, doesn't mean it was a mistake, kudos for someone getting out there and trying and lets hope they keep trying and have a big win at some point.
I haven't seen the sequel, but in the original, all the kills had to do with the head or neck. Decapitation, strangulation, throat slitting, axe to the dome, etc. Seems like theirs a theme here.
Absolutely agree with the Jason X liquid nitrogen kill! Absolute best kill ever in a horror movie. I didn't hate the first Blood and Honey movie but it was mainly because it was so bad that it was good.
The first movie was the same, in that the characters could've been literally any slasher monster, and had absolutely nothing to do with the original characters - and generally didn't even resemble them (haven't seen this movie, so I'm not sure if they changed any of that). The *only* goal was to use the IP to draw people in, and beyond that, there was almost literally 0 work put into the actual story, or theme, or kills, or anything else. It didn't seem at all like the creators were trying to have any fun with it, it seemed like they were just doing it purely for the money. If they've said otherwise, they're fuckin lying (and/or, are just horribly inept and clueless).
I have a open mind to it. The first onr wss kinda lackluster for me and the controlling bees part was reallllly random. But just from what i heard friends tell me and seeing the trailer made me excited yet happy for them theybhave a bigger scale and budget. The only part that kinda bothers me is the scarytale universe hes building. It sounded cool with peter pan and pinnichio but the avengers level crossover movie it leads up to is so weird. Like are they all becoming friends and going against a big baddie/their creator or something. If hes the antagonist they can call him Dalt Wismey for copywrite issues lmfao
This whole series just feels like a creepypasta thrown on the screen
And not even the good ones
Haven't heard that therm in a while. And you are probably right
He needs to review Monkey Man
I'm here for it.
that's what I want from it lol
Scary terry already did the whole "bitch" thing 😂
"You can run, but you can't hide, bitch!"
Literally came here to say that they stole that character trait from Rick and Morty. But then again Rick and Morty stole it from Jessie Pinkman
@@jbheath6678 It is literally a direct parody of Freddy Kruger say "bitch" a lot
@@jbheath6678 You twerps. Go watch Nightmare on Elm Street and see where the fuck that line came from
Welp Dave Chappelle uses "bitch" a lot as well soooo...
Jeremy being so nice & supportive toward the creative minds behind this series is so heartwarming to watch
'But that said?'
@@henrymanuel8246people behind that pile will actually listen ? This is not massive production

6:31 Jason X has a ton of memorable kills, I will never forget Jason beating the girl to death with another girl in a sleeping bag.
That was a classic kill. I don't get the hate for Jason X. I enjoy it each time I watch it
Jason X was the first R movie that I went to by myself when I turned 18.
Oh man, to this very day my dad still brings up that sleeping bag gag any chance he gets.
Man you just unlocked a memory of me and my cousins rewinding that scene over and over again just laughing our asses off. Good times.
@@shaunkrog3620 The series had already jumped the shark well before Jason X. But Jason X took the shark jumping to a new and stupid degree.
They really missed out on the opportunity to call this "Winnie 2: Electric Poohgaloo"

Probably the critics that like horror/slashers saw it first.
Is still at 80% 😂
Yeah but with a very low average rating. That's a big negative about how RT works and it's perceptions of quality to the public.

“Buffalo Bill in Geppetto’s house” is probably the most accurate description of the Pooh-niverse Pinocchio ever.
Is it good? Nah
Am I excited for the poohniverse? Absolutely.
Legit question. Why? We already saw that the last two movies were bad, what makes you think the team behind those two movies will do a better job?
@danieltobin4498 they obviously learned a lot between 1 and 2 so in theory they could be on an upward trajectory.

To be fair; Winnie the Pooh was originally light hearted but this movie fails in execution.
@@borek92Objectively untrue. Cinderella originally involved eyes getting plucked from skulls and one of the step sisters cutting flesh off their feet so they could fit into the slippers.
So true. Even the Brothers Grimm made their tales more child-friendly than the horrific folklore they were based on.
It’s just because it’s easy to do quickly, has nothing to do with if it’ll be good or bad, all the good ways to use the characters just takes longer
Tigger is Scary Terry.😂
Came here to say this 😂😂
"Aww, bitch..."
Freddy Krueger
Can’t wait for the inevitable horror super Mario movie. A shroom crazed maniac goes on a rampage, relentlessly pursuing his ‘Princess’
That sounds awesome
A horror Super Mario movie has already been made, it’s with Bob Hoskins:) That movie gave me nightmares for years…
I am sure the country without fair use laws will yield to the public domain concept. good luck, though.
I'm stealing this idea thanks
I doubt you’ll be alive when Mario enters public domain lol.
I absolutely love the reference to the nitrogen kill in Jason X. Definitely top tier

3:39 Hey Jeremy, real quick, you ever watch rick and morty when Scary Terry shows up, your impression of Tigger reminded me of exactly that

How did they make a sequel so fast?
Well it did have like 5X the budget of the last one too. So boy howdy did they use it. They just crazy with the kills this time around.
I have a open mind to it. The first onr wss kinda lackluster for me and the controlling bees part was reallllly random. But just from what i heard friends tell me and seeing the trailer made me excited yet happy for them theybhave a bigger scale and budget. The only part that kinda bothers me is the scarytale universe hes building. It sounded cool with peter pan and pinnichio but the avengers level crossover movie it leads up to is so weird. Like are they all becoming friends and going against a big baddie/their creator or something. If hes the antagonist they can call him Dalt Wismey for copywrite issues lmfao
Ah yes, the MK SNES blood code...*hair greys and withers away instantly*
Bambi meets Godzilla was awesome growing up. Good times.
Love these types of movies! Im def gonna watch this
