How interesting would it be if the Djinn was manipulative but relied on the greed of people for his power, not just setting up dumb scenarios but instead just working with the desires of those around him?
The Djinn as a concept being let loose in the prison system on paper is a cool concept using the same rules as the first movie. But this movie just didn't do it.
Well imagine Geoffrey Rush as Hector Barbossa in Pirates of Caribbiean at Worlds End explaining how he managed to come back to the world of the living, it would ruin the movie. Unfortunately that's what they decided to do here.
I do have a continuity question - how does the police explain the guy being killed by being pushed through the jail bars by a powerful invisible force? They had to have security cameras in and around the cell, they had to have reviewed it back and witnessed the guy being pressed with force through the metal bars until his death without anyone touching him while Wishmaster is just standing there, maniacally grinning as he watches it occur, seemingly loving it...did they just call a spade a spade and sweep that one under the rug?
@@joshgardner112 I agree! On a whim I decided to revisit Wishmaster 1 & 2 and I had a blast watching these. I wasn't disappointed one bit. Must admit, in a certain light/angle throughout most of the 2 Morgana looks like Halsey and now I can't unsee it yo
The cigarettes were thrown in to convince the other guy it was a more normal deal like he was used to, not just because he wanted a pack of cigarettes.
Actually, the cigarettes were thrown in because in real life it became illegal to pedal smokes to children the same way they used to, so instead the tobacco companies began investing in movies in exchange for having the characters in the movie smoke and mention cigarettes as often as possible. That's my bet. ;)
I know this is totally random, but I have to ask this: What's it say about this girl that her ex-boyfriend apparently decided to become a Catholic priest after they broke up ? I mean, I've seen the "turned my ex gay" trope, but this is ridiculous.
I remember seeing this on that double movie set with the first one back when I was ten. Even then I could tell it was pretty much bullshit. Innocent little me thought the lawyer shit his pants so hard he died. XD
27:15 well, the Djinn first says "Here's the man", reference to Pontius Pilate's sentence "Ecce homo"; the priest is also an "alter Christus" in the Roman Catholic Church, hence why he was placed on a cross. The Djinn is making fun of his faith, for he allowed himself to be placed in that situation.
Love your reviews! You have a great sense of humour ! But you also do your research properly! Makes me wanna do reviews even more then I already do! Keep it up mate!
When I first viewed this film years ago, I thought "Hey, it's directed by the guy who did The Hidden, a well thought out sci-fi/horror film". After viewing this film, I was like "What happened to you, Jack Sholder ???" He's now a professor at a college.
It wasn't just the guard that got two wishes in the first movie, the shop assistant did too. She wished for cash and then youth. Also the MC's boss wished first for the jug to be worth more then for a million dollars. The rule about one wish wasn't in the first film, it was introduced in this one... then also ignored in this one.
What I would have done( besides change every goddam thing in this movie).......when she wished 'I wish that security guard was alive again' he should have woken up in his coffin underground full of decay and maggots .....that would have been horrific 😁 this movie really was a wasted opportunity. 😧
I mostly agree what you said in this video, I cant believe they fucked up the djinn and the rules for the wishes this badly. It also doesn't help that most of the characters are unlikable assholes
I don't think the wish on behalf of the casino counted and those people died because they wished to win that's why he went there everyone was making wishes. That's why the dginn repeated it because it annoyed him that he couldn't touch the guy yet
HEY! I like the actor who plays the cop interviewing the Jinn. I remember him from the Angel pilot. I'm surprised the guy reviewing this missed that since he's a Buffy Fan (and who watched Buffy without watching Angel?).
I did get that but quite frankly I got bigger fish to fry and i can't go through every actors filmography especially when that actor played a fairly inconsequential vampire just there to establish angel as a badass to wolfram and hart, oh yeah i watched it all.
I mean with the "alive again" as the Djinn is meant to fuck about with wishes, you'd think it would cut to the guard waking up in his coffin screaming, and her realising she wasn't pure as she'd just condemned him to die slowly in darkness. That's what I'd have done if I was him, or maybe turn him into a zombie or vampire who goes around killing people. You know anything but the objectively nicest possible way of interpreting that wish.
Anytime the topic comes up re: why the djinn isn't a more prolific horror character, I mention how the ball got dropped for part 2 and then kicked and fumbled oafishly around for an additional 2 sequels. There was certainly Nightmare on Elm Street / Freddy potential for the character but instead the djinn is lucky to get brought up well after Leprechaun gets a mention.
I just caught this and it's fantastic. If you listen close, when the prisoner asks if the Djinn is tripping (9:46), it's very quiet but you can hear the Djinn repeat Yes immediately after he's asked that. Pretty funny.
My question is why they had the stereotypical priest in a horror movie when an Imam would have made much more sense for a movie involving a Jinn. It also would have been less weird to consider him being the devil at any point even if it would have been stupid to try and pull that
4:07 right here you can see the expression in the djinn’s face where he’s like “ehhhhh....fuck it. i say it counts, vaguely.... No, it doesn’t. “Screw you here’s some liquid nitrogen”
You gotta applaud that right out the gate the movie tells you it won't adhere to it's predecessor and the writer is a hack.The only more efficient way they could have done that was a title card saying, "Get out now!"
Few things. All Abrahamic religions worship the same god but fight over the prophet. The Djinn in Islam are an entity ranking between angels and man. They are made out of smokeless fire and do not have the power destroy the world. I seem to remember that Islam's version of Satan was a Djinn who refused to bow before Adam. I think where the idea of wishes came from is King David's son, Solomon. He bound demons to do his bidding with a ring gifted to him by the angels.
I assume maybe because he was so close to victory that he didn't bother to twist the wish around...maybe he thought it'd be more terrible that way, as their happy family would have to live through the hell on earth when the djinn brought through his brethren.
13:03 I'm going to assumr there is sound proof glass there along with the chain link wall otherwise the use of phones to communicate is 100% pointless.
Well, all Abrahamic religions technically have the same god. It would be cool if we got a Muslim main character, but in that aspect it wouldn't be necessary to the "plot". The god she's praying to is the same as the one called Allah.
+turkishvan2 I guess in that case it all comes down to a persons interpretation really, the reason I mention it is because the Djinn are in the Quran and not the catholic bible.
An islamic protagonist might be OP due to familiarity. +DR Clearly, Wishmaster can only count wishes he actually grants, which excludes any about his own death.
Finally someone who knows history of religion. Jews, muslim and christians pray to the same god and still argue that their god is the true God. Its ridiculous.
I was going to point that out. I think he still technically has a point though as I'm pretty sure Christian/ Catholic/ whatever the hell the movie was showing doesn't have jinn in it. I kind of wonder what the thought process behind brining religion into the movie was anyway.
Strange, I thought maybe I hadn't seen this movie until the lawyer part. For some reason I thought that scene was is "thinner". Guess I mixed up the movies I shouldn't have seen as a kid but my dad showed me anyway lol
So the main character is named morgana the film makers do know that morgana the character is from a different Arabian nights story than Aladdin this wouldn’t be so bad except morgana’s story doesn’t have any genies in it what was naming her sharazard to on the nose
I really don't want to defend this movie but technically the term 'freeze" can mean "to become frozen" or "the act of freezing something" A freezer freezes water.
Ha, I can actually remember liking this quite fondly (though certainly not as much as the first), but you're right. In the less than 5 minutes they destroy any connection to the first film, and it cheapens the overall story in the long run. :/ 9:00 Yeah, that was the other reason why the sequels sucked. The first movie managed to avoid dragging the djinn, a creature of Middle Eastern folklore, into the mess of convoluted cliches which is Western religion.
that then implies though that you could get infinite wishes by saying things like "the cat wishe" or "the door wishes" and just have wishes as a proxy for every object, not to mention if it worked like that for soul getting why not do the simple thing of find somebody working for a charity, get them to wish everybody would not be hungry BAM he has every single soul on the planet. Making it so vague just adds in plot holes that then make the Djin look even dumber as he just took the really long winded way of doing things
Ya know, there's something to the idea of being wished out of existence. Imagine if this movie was about the girl being manipulated by her boyfriend, and the Djinn, into making wishes, and at the end when she realizes just how crazy things are, she wishes that her boyfriend had never been born. Or that they'd never met. Sure, it would re-use the paradox ending of the original, but it could have been a more interesting story than this.
I know this video is several years old but still 6:24 how is the jinn put though the legal system? Im quite sure he dosnt have any kind of presences in any system or i dont know what you call it in the US but in the UK its National Insurance number, he quite literally dosnt exist its almost like he just popped into existence only yesterday. 8:23 snap i said it first (even if i said it 4 years after this video was made) So if the jinn can only be beaten by a woman that is pure of heart where doomed as this meggan has cheated on her boyfriend (that was never born) with a priest there by corrupting a sevent of god, she blasphemes oh and she has murdered one guy and attempted to kill a second (i aren't sure if the jinn counts though) all in all dressing in white and removing piercings dosnt make you pure just look at the kkk they wear white all the time.
So much of the dialogue would have been better if instead of saying “you would like (whatever)” he said “dont you wish (whatever)”. Then he still would be granting wishes. I know thats a small thing but i feel like wishes, when genies are involved, are different than yeah i would like something. Plus we have seen how pedantic this djinn is, so i feel like that distinction should matter to him.
The new rules they came up with were probably to fill the plot hole from the first movie which made the Djinn so easy to defeat. Seriously, how scary is a monster when you can tell him to just go away.
You’re review is spot on about this movie. It was so disappointing the first was so good why were they in such a hurry to cash in on this series that they ruin it. I swear that this film makers intentionally series just so they don’t have to write them.
As far as the casino "manager" goes, he didn't actually get 2 wishes for himself. When he made the first wish he was technically speaking on behalf of the casino, but the 2nd wish he made for himself.
Which makes zero sense, unless your telling me that you could tell the djinn "my mate dave wishes to give me lot of money" you cant make wishes by proxy.
The god of the Quran and the Bible are the exact same deity (in theory). It's the god that revealed itself to Abraham. So their christianity definatly should still work...i think.
Well, from an Islamic perspective Christianity, while still a religion of the book, is still not great because the whole Holy Trinity concept goes against the Islamic idea of G-d being a unity. So it probably still wouldn’t work
I am going to kind of give the movie some credit. The first wish of the casino manager was that of the casino, not himself personally. The second wish was from him personally. So, that must be the logic they are using for the one wish per customer rule. However, a casino is an inanimate place which cannot make wishes, so it should not of been made. That is like a worker at Disney World saying that, "Disney wishes you have the best time here at our wonderful parks!"
so yeah you explained the first problem with that theory, is that the djinn wouldn't accept a wish from something that doesnt have a soul however the other problem with that is if the guy "wished for the casino" i could be like "hey djinn my mate dan wished i was rich, so take his soul and gimme money" which is incredibly nonsensical on many levels.
Not excusing this obviously inferior sequel but the owner of the casino said "THE CASINO WISHES everyone good luck" hence the reason he may have gotten a second wish and why everyone in THE CASINO lost their souls. It's still lazy writing and is definitely dumb I'm simply throwing it out there. I just found ur channel and have been binge watching ur content, u make great stuff man and more than earned my sub.
I like the dancing idea, but since he said "Compton-style", they end up just sitting there, listening to the guys demo tape and bobbin' their heads. And the djinn, in that same full make-up, turns to the guard and just deadpan "This is pretty good." And then they're back right where they were and the guard walks off, confused and weirded out but has his demo tape in his hand or something.
Actually hell would not be his realm because he isnt a demon but a jinn of the darkness not of hell. These movies are stupid but I watched the 1st one in my aunts basement by myself so it’s in my head.
28:45 Technically, It was one wish... The first wish was 'The Casino wishes its patrons the best of luck' and NOT the Manager as a Person!!! Yeah... I know, Maybe I should have wrote the script as clearly I can do more than they did and make it make sense!!! LMAO! 30:01 and funny this... But Morgana Didn't need to make that wish either! The Bible itself says that the 'Penitent Man Kneels before God' - OK... Philosophical / Theologian Speak now... That more or less means that all she needed to do was come to terms with her sins and seek forgiveness... Even if the Victims could not forgive her, the fact she sought penance means she has taken the knee before God and repented her sins... And as God is the ultimate Judge - She would again be pure! So her wish should have been to seek forgiveness from the Family of her victim!
yup many people have told me this but that still doesn't work and arguably makes less sense because that would mean you could tell the djinn "my mate dave wishes to give me lots of money so give me money and take his soul"
@@deusdeaconReviews Ah! LOL! Here I go... You got my speciality here... A Wish MUST be asked for by the person wanting the wish... So, Yeah... Still a bit iffy as the Casino itself cannot ask... But Casino's also didn't exist when Djinn were alive, so maybe it used that as a 'Loop Hole' - After all, The Manager Represents the Casino and is therefore its voice! :) Holy Fuck, I play WAY TOO MUCH D&D to be able to work out crap like that! Loving your videos by the way... Hope we see more soon!
1 holy shit you answered me, i am not worthy, 2 no i agree its stupid it is totally stupid, it just made me laugh, i was trying to be sarcastic typing it but there is no sarcasm font sir, love your reviews :D
How interesting would it be if the Djinn was manipulative but relied on the greed of people for his power, not just setting up dumb scenarios but instead just working with the desires of those around him?
"I want your drugs." "Wish granted" Prison gang leader immediately dies of an OD. = Twisting the wish in an obvious ways.
The one guy said to walk out of jail was part of the wish that he didnt grant
The Djinn as a concept being let loose in the prison system on paper is a cool concept using the same rules as the first movie. But this movie just didn't do it.

Did anyone else keep waiting for that bowed top mounted shelf behind Andrew to fall off the wall?
Well let me spoil things now, no matter how long you watch for it it'll never fall.

No he said the casino wishes best of luck the djin thought the casino was a person
technically you could be right there but as the franchise has fucked up that rule before I'll stick with the precedent.
that then implies though that you could get infinite wishes by saying things like "the cat wishe" or "the door wishes" and just have wishes as a proxy for every object, not to mention if it worked like that for soul getting why not do the simple thing of find somebody working for a charity, get them to wish everybody would not be hungry BAM he has every single soul on the planet.
Making it so vague just adds in plot holes that then make the Djin look even dumber as he just took the really long winded way of doing things

you have very comedic timing for ad placements

You should do the tremors franchise
+Matthew “my name is mud” Riggs Well there's always my patreon page www.patreon.com/DeusdaeconReviews for official requests.
You’re review is spot on about this movie. It was so disappointing the first was so good why were they in such a hurry to cash in on this series that they ruin it. I swear that this film makers intentionally series just so they don’t have to write them.
As far as the casino "manager" goes, he didn't actually get 2 wishes for himself. When he made the first wish he was technically speaking on behalf of the casino, but the 2nd wish he made for himself.
Which makes zero sense, unless your telling me that you could tell the djinn "my mate dave wishes to give me lot of money" you cant make wishes by proxy.
@@deusdeaconReviews that's probably how they explained it away.....considering how they handled the movie as a whole. LOL
1:43 Nathan Fillion would like a word with you.
Edit: wrong movie lol
I'd love to know why, cause this comment confused me.
Lmao at the Beauty and the Beast reference💀🤣
Yeah the first is still my favorite out of all the Wish Master, second has to be this one. The rest are even more stupid.
Speaking of doing research... The Islamic, Catholic, and Jewish God are all the same. They are called the Abrahamic religions for a reason.
The god of the Quran and the Bible are the exact same deity (in theory). It's the god that revealed itself to Abraham. So their christianity definatly should still work...i think.
well if you're not sure how the hell do you expect me to get it right
Well, from an Islamic perspective Christianity, while still a religion of the book, is still not great because the whole Holy Trinity concept goes against the Islamic idea of G-d being a unity. So it probably still wouldn’t work
I am going to kind of give the movie some credit. The first wish of the casino manager was that of the casino, not himself personally. The second wish was from him personally. So, that must be the logic they are using for the one wish per customer rule. However, a casino is an inanimate place which cannot make wishes, so it should not of been made. That is like a worker at Disney World saying that, "Disney wishes you have the best time here at our wonderful parks!"
so yeah you explained the first problem with that theory, is that the djinn wouldn't accept a wish from something that doesnt have a soul however the other problem with that is if the guy "wished for the casino" i could be like "hey djinn my mate dan wished i was rich, so take his soul and gimme money" which is incredibly nonsensical on many levels.
That is actually a really good point. The logic in the sequels are so dumb.
That prison yard location has to be the same one in American history x
1 wish to rule them all
, you were expecting a rational story from a movie about a djinn
No, I was expecting a consistent story, Not only was it not consistent with the film its a sequel to, It wasn’t consistent between scenes.
For a direct to dvd movie, it's not that bad.
+2000mightymegatron yes, indeed, But as a sequel to a truly great film it's bloody awful.
Are you nuts? Wishmaster 2 is EPIC!!!!!! It’s absolutely hilarious. The Wishmaster actor deserves an Oscar for this performance - he is perfect
ha, good ol Debo. bam bam
Part of the wish was to walk out of jail, he didnt grant it
well the wishes are bullshit. I thought I established that
Not excusing this obviously inferior sequel but the owner of the casino said "THE CASINO WISHES everyone good luck" hence the reason he may have gotten a second wish and why everyone in THE CASINO lost their souls. It's still lazy writing and is definitely dumb I'm simply throwing it out there. I just found ur channel and have been binge watching ur content, u make great stuff man and more than earned my sub.
Did you review the other two Wishmaster films - they do get worse.
I've reviewed them all
@@deusdeaconReviews cool, have found them, watched them and also subscribed.
Dude can you do the terminator franchise
I like the dancing idea, but since he said "Compton-style", they end up just sitting there, listening to the guys demo tape and bobbin' their heads. And the djinn, in that same full make-up, turns to the guard and just deadpan "This is pretty good." And then they're back right where they were and the guard walks off, confused and weirded out but has his demo tape in his hand or something.
DO THE LAPRACHAUN SERIERS
Ahaha 3:28 thats priceless
Actually hell would not be his realm because he isnt a demon but a jinn of the darkness not of hell. These movies are stupid but I watched the 1st one in my aunts basement by myself so it’s in my head.
28:45 Technically, It was one wish... The first wish was 'The Casino wishes its patrons the best of luck' and NOT the Manager as a Person!!! Yeah... I know, Maybe I should have wrote the script as clearly I can do more than they did and make it make sense!!! LMAO!
30:01 and funny this... But Morgana Didn't need to make that wish either! The Bible itself says that the 'Penitent Man Kneels before God' - OK... Philosophical / Theologian Speak now... That more or less means that all she needed to do was come to terms with her sins and seek forgiveness... Even if the Victims could not forgive her, the fact she sought penance means she has taken the knee before God and repented her sins... And as God is the ultimate Judge - She would again be pure!
So her wish should have been to seek forgiveness from the Family of her victim!
yup many people have told me this but that still doesn't work and arguably makes less sense because that would mean you could tell the djinn "my mate dave wishes to give me lots of money so give me money and take his soul"
@@deusdeaconReviews Ah! LOL! Here I go... You got my speciality here... A Wish MUST be asked for by the person wanting the wish... So, Yeah... Still a bit iffy as the Casino itself cannot ask... But Casino's also didn't exist when Djinn were alive, so maybe it used that as a 'Loop Hole' - After all, The Manager Represents the Casino and is therefore its voice! :)
Holy Fuck, I play WAY TOO MUCH D&D to be able to work out crap like that!
Loving your videos by the way... Hope we see more soon!
Yeah but the "casino" made the luck wish XD the black guy only made one wish in a way
the "casino" is not a person, why would the Djinn grant a wish from something that doesn't have soul to exchange for it ? That is the whole reason
1 holy shit you answered me, i am not worthy, 2 no i agree its stupid it is totally stupid, it just made me laugh, i was trying to be sarcastic typing it but there is no sarcasm font sir, love your reviews :D
hehe no worries, I've had that comment before so It's kind of ingrained in me to answer it a certain way.
all good sir, i am watching your silence of the lamb review right now, love your channel :D
29:00 Why does he groan at this scene? The woman looks to be in her late 40s/early 50s. It's natural for women her age to go through the change.
If Morgana used the quaran, more would have died roflmao
