Just rewatched Army of Darkness.
Hundreds of people on screen, choreographed fights, enormous set design, stop motion, pyrotechnics, hundreds of props and puppets, special effects artist mastery, stunt men, latex, slapstick comedy, Bruce Campbell, guys on fire, skeletons, great musical score, comedy, full commitment to the bullshit, seven Bruce Campbells fighting one Bruce Campbell Charlie Chaps meets the stooges style, smooth runtime of about 80 minutes...
$13 million dollars in 1992. Even in terms of inflation this shit still rules. And the amount of effort to make it a thing is monumental.
And it gives no regards to your understanding for the lore of the prior two movies because it doesn't even care. There's no "message" to be had. It's pure unrivaled spectacle. You get on the ride and enjoy it or you lose out.
They don't make bullshit like they used to.
