Reply to comment by Few_Needleworker_801 in Taika Waititi's Next Film 'Next Goal Wins' Moves to September 22, 2023 Release Date – Starring Michael Fassbender by SanderSo47

The Cabin in the Woods wrapped filming in May 2009. It didn't release in theaters until April 2012. It was held back as MGM was the distributor but it was going through financial problems. It was later sold to Lionsgate.

I was so confused for so long by that movie because I read that Hemsworths performance in it was the reason he got cast as Thor, but the movie came out a year after Thor. It wasn't until I did more digging that I understood where the confusion was coming from.

Everyone forgets Red Dawn! Filmed right BETWEEN Cabin and Thor. I only remember it for this one scene where Josh Peck shoots a window out and jumps a whole story landing on the ground like nothing and keeps running but the rest was meh.

Still, Red Dawn was filmed also before Thor but came out AFTER Cabin in the Woods and Thor. Weird releases at the time

To be clear the shitty 'modern' Red Dawn and not the 80's classic Red Dawn!

I always had this feeling that Chris Hemsworth didn't feel quite Chris Hemsworthy in that movie despite already having all these major movies under his belt. Now I know why.

Wrong actor. Armie Hammer is a cannibal.

One of my favorite movies. Such a fun theater experience going in blind.
