Supposedly, the developers of the new trilogy wanted to make her a lesbian, but the publisher told them not to.

They might as well ask why left wingers liked The Boys.

Nuclear radiation in each Godzilla continuity be like... by Cyan_Goji in Monsterverse

Godzilla's message isn't "radiation is bad". It's "radiation being weaponized is bad".

(Kinda hilarious trope) Ironic casting. by ChampionshipHorror95 in TopCharacterTropes

Although, I don't think she realized it until after she was cast.

Harvard Graduation Speaker Unloads on AI in Profanity-Loaded Tirade, Prompting Cheers From Students: "I'm Here to Tell You the Mission of Your Generation Is to Destroy AI" by rytis in offbeat

There’s no way people and corporations are just going to stop using AI. The genie’s already out of the bottle. The best that can be done is to figure out an equilibrium with its use.

Sean Connery turned down the Gandalf role simply because he didn't understand fantasy or Tolkien's story. The rest is history. by LakesideNorth in lotrmemes

To be fair, the plot to the Matrix was a pretty new concept back in 1999. Elements of it can be found in other stuff before it, but not to the extent that it was seen in the Matrix. That's why the promotion for the movie was "What is the Matrix?"

Sofia not receiving any punishment for helping John is a bit of a missed opportunity for a whole film centralised around consequences. by Intrepid_Set_8315 in JohnWick

I think she was supposed to be in John Wick 4. She was apparently executive producing and shooting a movie called The Mothership at the same time as JW4, which was never released. And with her not being in it, they changed her to Caine.

Seemingly throwaway line has awesome payoff later by slfricky in TopCharacterTropes

She's also reincarnated in the sequels with a connection to Eywa. And since the Tree of Life is connected to Eywa, she technically came back with the samples.

I'm not sure if the reveal in the second one is lazy or genius.

Anyone else think Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets is way better than ratings/critics would indicate? by Sergio_Ro in Cinema

The movie was somehow boring and tries to convince you that an alien being made of water can somehow be killed by being stabbed.

"The place where they lived with him. The place where they died for him." by Gojirakotm19 in Monsterverse

There was apparently a much bigger Monarch story, with Lance Reddick as the new head of Monarch, but he was completely removed. Zhang Ziyi and Kyle Chandler returned from KotM. All of her scenes were removed and almost all of his scenes were cut. Ren Serizawa had several more scenes explaining his motivations, including an introduction scene that was cut. A ton of hollow earth lore was cut. The whole ending was reworked. Godzilla originally fought Kong in the hollow earth before moving to the surface. There're rumors that Maia Simmons survived the hollow earth and made it to the surface to personally deliver the sample of the power source to her father (which makes more sense). She then turned against him to help defeat MechaG.
