I have to take my little girls to that shitshow in two hours. The wife is buried in her work, so I got the assignment.
I’ve tried bribery and nothing is working.

You'll be back a changed man. Maybe not even a man at all.

Your penance is 5 Ayuh's, 5 Feh's, 3 Let the Bullshit Continue's, and a Gorilla gif.
You are absolved, my son.

Enjoyed most of it. The franchise still creeps me out so enjoyed that.
for me the human baby thing was dumb as well as the super fast growth of both the alien and the baby

When will they learn their lesson? Is virtue signaling more important than turning a profit?

Why is there a TV series? Seems like there was a recent series of movies that pretty much covered everything.

I didn't know this...
========================
Though many films have gone through difficult or taxing production periods, The Exorcist had a rather extensive list of tragedies and deaths related to the film's production. Disaster after disaster kept plaguing filming until finally a priest was called upon to exorcise the set.
Perhaps the most bizarre occurrence during The Exorcist's production was the electrical fire that burned down the set. Set ablaze by a pigeon that flew into the light box, the fire occurred during shoots for the infamous exorcism scene. The film was put on hold for six weeks while the set had to be rebuilt. According to director William Friedkin, this is the strangest occurrence that made him question if the film was genuinely cursed.
But the fire was far from the only tragedy to happen during the film's production. Jack MacGowran, who played Burke Dennings in the film, died unexpectedly after contracting influenza. Vasiliki Maliaros, the actress portraying Father Karras' mother, also died before the film's release. What's especially creepy is that both MacGowran's and Maliaros' characters die in The Exorcist.
As if the deaths of MacGowran and Maliaros weren't terrible enough, their deaths weren't the only ones associated with the film. Other actors lost family, including Blair, whose grandfather passed during the film's production. Altogether, nine people related to the production are said to have died during the making of the film.

I disagree. They get the 60s, 70s, and 80s? Fuck all that. 80s were Gen X.
