the posters seemed to be going for a pretty generic horror movie vibe, so i wasn't really interested until it came out and i started hearing good reviews

That Cabin in the Woods movie was fantastic. Really glad I went in knowing nothing about it other than the good reviews.
The opening alone was enough to tell me this movie was going to be special.

I had the same experience. I am trying my best to promote the movie to friends without ruining it.

Yeah I'm having a hard time. They all think it's just another slasher flick deal.

The ads aren't helping with that.
Which on one hand, I get. Keeps the other tricks closer to the chest.
On the other, well, if it wasn't for the Whedon thing, and the incredibly-low-spoiler previews, I'd be ignoring it. Dead teenager flicks are a dime a dozen.
Hmm. They the sort to believe you if you just say "Trust me. It's not just another dead teenager movie"?
Or would it be worth mentioning
the whole underground setup, in passing.
Maybe even "It's not just a horror movie. It's a horror movie ABOUT all the other horror movies."
I posted at the beginning of this year that I will strangle anyone who mentioned apocalypse this year, and I mean it. Get on your knees, lean your head forward and choke yourself in my hate filled claw.
Choke myself? Not with my hand but yours "numbnuts"? I am done smiling and I am done grinning.

So, for people who've already seen Cabin...
The failure in '98.
Seems like a specific reference, given the rest of the themes. My current guess?
Sounds like The Faculty. Spoilers for that are about to follow, but again. '98. It's been a while.
Film's big enough to get referenced, and liked well enough to get a joke in its favor. It's a dead teenager movie, which is entirely the organization in the film's wheelhouse.
Thing is, nobody dies in it except the monsters. Leads and supporting cast alike.
The reason for the failure? The hero invented a drug that kills the aliens. Which sounds like exactly the sort of thing that should be covered by (deep breath)
The Chemistry department.
Might have been just a generic reference, but it fits as well as anything I've found so far.

And now it's headed TO THE MOON.
Why I fear the ocean.

Apparently Whedon hates the triangle too
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
hope we skip the fascism part next time
... Am I on speaker phone?
No.

Oh Mordikai (how do you spell that) you crazy old coot.
YES.
Why are there not more people i can talk to about this? =(
You're running high odds of getting it spoiled that way. Trust me, you do not want that.
Good movie even if you do, but some bits are way, way better blind.
Why I fear the ocean.
Well, I'd have to drive a half hour to see it, and I'd have to go alone because I have no friends around here
I'm just not going to do that
I'll try to keep a blackout on spoilers though
Would say it's worth it, but waiting isn't too bad. Not THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER or anything. Just clever and engaging.
And good luck with the blackout. Seems like the kind of movie where you will get some jackass spoiling it sooner or later unless you're careful.

Yes, there is.
Full boob shot, too.
This film knows what the audiences expect.

Next weekend looks good for this
I'm also in the boat where the only movie I want to see in theatres is Avengers.
This will be here until I receive an apology or Weedlordvegeta get any consequences for being a bully
you have my attention.
