Popeye Horror Movie In 2025
 

Popeye being a horror isn’t a bad idea. It’s just him being the killer that doesnt work

These people just don't know when to quit, do they? I don't care if they are from different production companies; they're all part of the same group as far as I'm concerned.

I don't get why the default always seems to be horror. It's a chance to create your own adventure without needing to get permission from or pay Disney/whoever else some insane royalty... but no, instead the default idea seems to be 'let's make this innocent cartoon character a cold blooded murderer.'

Or, they could just go back to that CGI-Popeye movie idea that actually had a good trailer, but, the plug was pulled for whatever the reason..

As much as the critics dogged the Robin Williams Popeye movie (because there was singing in it OMG!), at least it felt and seemed like Popeye.

The horror-genre creeping into an otherwise family-friendly franchise seems like a weird idea to me, but, that is just an opinion.

I completely agree. People complain about mainstream Hollywood but these people...the ones who make these types of movies...are the the ones who truly lack creativity and are looking for cash grabs.

They’re just taking characters that someone else made popular and portraying them in the cheapest way possible. I didn’t even know Popeye was public domain. Is it one specific version like with Mickey Mouse?

I know audiences know the difference but I wish there was someway Disney and whoever else could sue these “filmmakers” just for scamming the public domain.

Popeye vs Cthulhu would be great.
