Answering a question from yesterday I think the 70's were the best decade for music followed by the 90's. 80's are right there in the mix

Didn't they say Irreconcilable differences was the reason why? I guess 50 years is where they drew the line

70's was the best decade for Music, followed by the 80's and 90's.

I know Foo's argument that I could agree with was that is was the "Perfect Slasher", meaning it checks all the boxes of what one would like/expect in a prototype slasher, but not necessarily that it's the greatest ever.

a perfect encapsulation of slasher movie tropes rather than the perfect slasher, i can get more behind.

as in one that everyone would agree on? probably not.

more 70s love than i expected, music-wise (i thought the 80s would be tops for most). what are your favorite bands or albums?

I don't think such a film could exist because it's subjective. I could list my slasher films or whatever and Friday 4 would certainly be on that list but there is no perfect slasher film in my opinion.

Seems more like money and bitterness. Bass player had to have back surgery, and I guess he can't get back on the road to tour as quick as the lead singer wound like to get that money, so singer was bitching a fit. Bass player said fuck it no more REO, fucker.

i'll agree to that, but discussion and debate is more fun than just saying it's all subjective, so who cares.

Precisely. Cronin said I'm taking it on the run without you, baby! But I guess legal rights and shiz, so they gotta kill the band instead, pity.

As I just told Z, in my opinion such a film cannot exist because everyone will not agree.

Is Part 4 missing a trope or element in which you love from a slasher?

It's the best F13 sequel but it's missing the one thing I love most about a Slasher film. The mystery of figuring out who is the killer. I love Jason Voorhees, he's my favorite of the 80's horror movie monsters. But this film is not even in my top 5 slashers because of that alone. The original F13 kept the mystery up until the final act and did it in a great way. I have always enjoyed the mystery and sadly so many films give it away too early.

But as I said earlier, it's subjective. Everyone's taste in films are different.
