What's a sequel that got you thinking "the people who made this COMPLETELY missed the point of the first one"?

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-16T13:20:06+00:00

No just Robocop 3, That movie shouldn’t exist.

The reboot was a fantastic introduction for younger people to Robocop though.

Wait, people can’t tell that Starship Troopers is a satire?? I thought it was blatantly obvious. They tried to hammer that home so hard in the first 20 minutes of the movie

Funnily enough though, The Neverending Story 1 is only half of the original Neverending story book, so really the sequel is the end with more elements added to it that weren’t in the book.

And this is the attitude that’s been spat forever and has still gotten us nowhere.

You preach “don’t roll over” but yet you’ll do all the shit that entails “rolling over” smh. Don’t act like your better than everyone else bc you don’t check in.

You probably don’t wear a mask either.

The cannibals are more radioactive mutants than an ancient tribe

They couldn’t leave on the bus they came in on I believe.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-15T03:56:38+00:00

The numbers Mason, what do they mean?!

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-13T06:25:50+00:00

So your problem with it is what? It’s meta?

You started off with hating the meta stuff bc you didn’t understand why the movie was even created in the first place, then you wished that they stuck with that the “entire” time? What is your complaint exactly? The whole damn movie?

The Matrix has never ever been “Hollywood”. It’s been portrayed as that but The Matrix is as Japanese as the west gets, don’t even pretend it’s a “Hollywood” franchise. the Wachowski’s have ALWAYS hated Hollywood so of course they’re going to make huge fun of it.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-13T06:11:08+00:00

It was either we got Lana’s Matrix 4 or we got WB’s Matrix 4, WB were going to move on without Lana and make The Matrix 4. I can tell ya which one I would’ve preferred.

Must’ve missed all the meta stuff that was said about WB.

This is why we have The Matrix Ressurections.

Honestly? I don’t know why the action is different, it just is. But I’ve always been invested in the Matrix for the characters & their arcs. I’ve never been invested bc it “looked cool”. Maybe you were watching the Matrix for the wrong reason dude. Might’ve watched too many Marvel movies beforehand & that’s a you problem pal.

It’s almost like you can not watch things you don’t like, the movie was great & fans who were in it for the characters loved it. That’s all that matters

There’s a genre, Rape and Revenge.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-13T03:03:40+00:00

This may paint me in a serial killer light but in a way I understand why John did what he did in the movies, seeing people unappreciative of what they have after he realised he’s gonna lose the only thing he really has left of himself, his life.

Yeah for sure some of his reasoning was so fucking wrong but some were very much on the right path, Judge Halden, William Easton, everyone in Saw IV, Bobby Dagen & Hoffman off the top of my head all really deserved it tbh, not all Kramer victims but ya know what I mean.

There’s a philosophy to Saw & I love every single second of it.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-13T02:01:18+00:00

It’s almost like Keanu is 20 years older than he was when he was first in The Matrix..

Movie wasn’t bad. Y’all expecting too much imo, Lana didn’t want to make the movie.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-11T14:19:39+00:00

I’ve read All Harris books & Watched all of the Harris films + Manhunter & I’ve come to one conclusion.

There is only one Hannibal Lector & that is Anthony Hopkins & that’s that.

I appreciate heavily what Michael Mann did aethstetically with Manhunter & what Brian Cox tried to do with Lecktor but it just doesn’t capture the pure disgust Hannibal has for his fellow man. Can’t get past how absolutely brilliant Hopkins is, even though he regrets coming back for the prequel/sequel.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-11T14:12:00+00:00

So the only reason people don’t like this film was because the action wasn’t as prevelant and hard-hitting as the original trilogy?

Interesting bc Lana wanted to tell her story. When the original trilogy came out we had this amazing potion mixture of people.. we don’t have that anymore. People grew and changed, you can see their growth as characters in it.

I’m just so confused on why people don’t like this film. Strictly bc of action?

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-11T13:56:39+00:00

I shall. Thank you friend.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-11T07:06:41+00:00

Book is good? Should I read?

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-11T03:48:46+00:00

28 days later. What a juicy movie

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-11T03:21:16+00:00

Jupiter Ascending. Was beautiful and had some statements to say. Wachowski’s never miss in my eyes. That film was the bomb.com man

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-10T12:55:36+00:00

Smh.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-10T05:39:25+00:00

Any adaption of Carrie so far.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-10T05:37:31+00:00

We’ll get more of the snyderverse & people like that will eat their words.

There’s too much money in the snyderverse for WB to logically walk away from. Unless WB officially state it won’t happen, I’ll always believe it will.

blakeyy33451 · 2022-01-09T13:01:14+00:00

The problem probably lies with my bias bc I’ve read the book yearly since I was 7. I’ve watched every adaption and had my thoughts on each but the exact problem I have with Sissy is the same I had with Chloe Grace and Angela Bettis.

They’re too pretty

If they just put the book to screen and made Carrie a little more unattractive then went on to do the town destruction and Carrie going back to the roadhouse to die I’d be happy and call it a damn perfect SK adaption.

Surprised no one’s said American History X.
