Upon its release, the film grossed $21 million at the US box office. The film received mostly positive reviews from critics and has since become a cult classic.[3] A remake is in development.

my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

#christine 1983 #fucking hell why do they have to ruin everything good #but on another note. if a reboot is to be made.#personally I would like it to go more the''maybe Christine is a normal car and Arnie is just acting up'' route #but. I am sacred they may go the book rute #which. I haven't read the book. it might be good. I wouldn't know #but yeah. I don't really vibe with the whole ''Arnie isn’t doing shit and he’s just possed'' thing I’m told the book has going on #because. the movie gave me an impression that it could be about stuff like #you know. getting back control of your life. sort of (?#like Arnie did everything his parents told them to and buying Christine was the first time he did something for himself #and when his parents tried to take her from him. he stood up and keept her #also that’s when he adopts a more ‘’rebellious tenager persona’’#there’s also this other thing where Arnie might be queer. and his whole douche greaser act is like. an over compensation of masculinity #and this OTHER thing. where his and Christine's relationship kinda sorta looks like grooming. to me at least #ok ''the car is a groomer'' sounds crazy but hear me out #this 17 yo meets the villain by pure chance and immediately decides he likes them even tho everybody in his life tells him is a bad idea #(also that villain is too old. that seems relevant)#he gets whit villian as a ''fuck you'' to his controlling parents #start spending all his time with villain causing him to distance from his loved ones and has brutal change of personality thanks to villain #has a lot of people trying to separate them and that only makes him react violently (and double down)#just to ultimately die because of his obsession with villian #(I mean. I'm no expert but that does look sus)#well. maybe I didn’t explain myself very well. but this IS a really interesting movie as it is #and all of that would be lost if the movie is just ''ghost obsessed with car possesses random dude to drive the car again''#but even if they don’t go there. there’s no guarantee the movie is gonna be good. you know?#but. as I said. idk #my insane ramblings #talking tags
