These movies are for stupid people.
dangit, I was all exited for a second, thought a third one came out
I really liked Glass Onion ;-;
There is a 3rd one coming…
Netflix picked it up (straight to DVD, basically). It’s called “Wake Up Dead Man”, presumably because all the people with taste died during their accidental viewing of the second movie.
Mmmmmm. I don’t know about this one…
I loved the first one and despised the second one.
I really don’t know how I feel about a third, but I’m certain it will set the tone for how I feel about any subsequent movies.
I watched the first one with my extended family on one of those Christmas gatherings where everyone is trying to pretend they don’t hate each other. To be fair, I watched it a second time on my own to see if the movie was actually better than I initially thought.
nope. I appreciate Chris Evans’ portrayal of a shithead legacy with a grudge, because my real life sets me up to be a guy like that in my real family (which is very much like the fictional family in the movie). It’s just so ham handed, though. Like an episode of a kid’s Disney show from the late 90’s.
And Daniel Craig sounds ridiculous. Good god
I really liked Looper until I made the mistake of, you know, thinking about it for more than 10 seconds. The shotgun design still kicks ass though which is about the only good thing I can say about it now, oh, and the performers were quite good.
Last Jedi absolutely shit the bed in every way possible, so at that point Rian Johnson was dead to me. He needs to pay an average to slow 5th grader to come in and point out all his plot holes so he can have someone else fix them.
Never watched Knives Out, highly unlikely I will.
To be fair to Rian on TLJ, from what I understand, he was given absolutely zero information to work with from JJ, and when he tried to salvage the plot of TFA and get the franchise moving again, they scrapped his character work and plot lines and “somehow Palpatine returned” was what we got. The new trilogy was a fucking mess, and I don’t blame Rian for that, especially because I know he can write a tight plot.
“Somehow Palpatine Returned” was Rise of Skywalker… after Johnson painted them into a corner by killing Snoke, reducing the resistance to a size that could fit on the Falcon, and offing Luke Skywalker instead of Leia when he had the chance.
But I tend to give Rise of Skywalker a pass because a) Johnson fucked them and b) Carrie Fisher died and it was supposed to be “her” movie, like Force Awakens was Hans and Last Jedi was Lukes. :(
Kathleen Kennedy admitted that the story wasn’t mapped out and that JJ would work with Rian who was to direct the second and write the third film. However, JJ abandoned the project for Star Trek and Cloverfield, and left Rian in the wind. The third movie went through three different directors and a handful of writers (with Rian being excluded completely) before Kennedy called JJ back in, who then abandoned everything Rian had done in 8 and decided that he wanted to make 9 all by himself, thus, “Somehow Palpatine returned,” not to mention that intro that makes the first 20 minutes of the movie feel like a recap to a film that never happened. It was a clusterfuck.
The whole plot of that first movie was entirely based on that there is a person who pukes when she lies. Tell me please how that is not idiotic?
Get em lol
First one was ok because of Chris P and Chris P. Ana De Armas did her bit too.
Second one just got lost.
