have you seen evil dead 2/army of darkness? I don't know if it would be necessary pre-viewing, but it might help.


And it's fantastic.

i love army of darkness. Been years since ive seen it but used to watch it all the time!

Have you not seen the first two EDs?

I think episodes 2 and 3 suffered noticeably from Raimi's absence, both in the writing and direction. Perhaps the new director will bring something better to 4 (Michael J. Bassett is an awful director anyway).

Still wishing they had just made Evil Dead 4 at this point. Not that I dislike this or anything.

Man, there is not going to be a ED 4 so far.

Just deal with it.

I know that, I'm just saying I wish they would have made the movie instead of the series if this is what the show is gonna be. But it's still early.

I know friend, i know.

we all want another EV movie, and we might get one if the series is a hit ya know?

I'm just really worried the non-Raimi writers don't get how to characterize Ash. Making him likable is the biggest mistake you could make. He should be an unlikable asshole. A joke. A schlub. A dummy who just happens to be good at killing deadites. I want to see more of the idiot who drunkenly summoned evil spirits to impress a woman, the jerk who talked an old woman into cleaning his trailer, the buffoon who made up heroic sob stories to get laid, the curmudgeon who told people cheering for him to "Get the fuck out of my face," the dolt who couldn't even be bothered to remember three words to save the world, you know?

the guy who comforts a girl who just watched her mother murder her father by telling her that 'you remind me of a young me' isn't assholeish enough.

You're right it is less over the top, but I've personally found that this has largely enhanced the delivery of the material.
