Pretty sure they have a new Mask movie coming out this year.  So relevant now:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8879858/ 

Going to pin your credentials on a movie that has a $78K budget? That's ... different ...

EDIT: And just a weee different in theme/tone ...

Edited by Woz
Watched the trailer ... yeah, that's a switch ...

Tone is more in line with the comic apparently. 

Wouldn't surprise me since it's supposedly from Dark Horse ... that would in turn negate the idea that the GIF posted by @MKnight82 was relevant.

WOZ KNOWS! (it's right there in the sig, people :D:D:D )

The original was supposed to be dark too:

Dez Bryant signed with the Saints. They still have to play the Eagles. It sucks that we sit on our hands when injuries happen and “try” the next man up thing and it never works.

Alex never would’ve thrown him the ball anyway

So, the Saints who are fairly set at WR are bringing in Brandon Marshall and Dez Bryant for workouts...

This must be what successful teams do.

Cam Merrideth was put on IR bc of a knee issue and he’s having arthroscopic surgery - probably on his surgically repaired knee.

That’s probably why they signed him, but I agree he’s they’re 3rd best WR at best. He shouldn’t start over Tre’Quan Smirh who burned us.. twice!

The production house thought of it as a horror film, but the director changed it up because he realized it would be better as a comedy (in no small part to Jim Carrey as well).

Quote

"It’s a great example of really fighting for your vision in a film. We changed it from a horror film into a comedy. It was originally conceived as being a horror film. That was a real battle. New Line wanted a new kind of Freddy movie."
...

Russell went on to say how he was confused that New Line couldn't see the blatant similarities between the Mask and their own #FreddyKreuger:

"By coincidence, I had seen the same original Mask comic they ended up buying, and I thought, ‘That’s really cool, but it’s too derivative of Freddy Krueger.’ It really was. He would put on the mask and kill people. And have one-liners. It was a really cool, splatterpunk, black and white comic. They’ve redone the comics to be more like my movie, but the original comics were really cool, dark and scary. But I knew, as a film, it would be very reminiscent of Freddy Krueger.”

Realize there's disappointment for not going after a WR like Bryant, but:

  1.  @lavar703 was right - he wouldn't get the ball
  2. Since he apparently tore his Achilles tendon, it's not like the Saints got anything out of him either.
