I must live in the future, cuz it’s on HBO Max right now!

Jupiter is off the charts horrible. My wife & I still make fun of it all the time - “My friends call me Jupe!” …and all the nonsense about bees lol

I also thought their Speed Racer was horrible, although that seems to have a fan base now.

However, I highly recommend Cloud Atlas. I’ll go to bat for the Wachowski’s all day long on that one. One of my favorite movies of all time, a legit work of art that gets better and better the more you watch it. If anything, it’s one of the best editing jobs of all time…cutting between 6 different stories with entirely different tones, yet somehow weaving it all together with a cohesive flow & structure. Amazing.

LOL, I’ll watch it cuz it’s “free”. If it’s as awful as people are saying, I’ll turn it off. Easy peasy. Too bad I paid to see Ghostbusters Afterlife…Sat though that entire boring nostalgia bukkake.

I respect T3 because it respects a fundamental truth about time travel: if you’re witnessing robots from the future, that future has happened. Judgement Day has to happen. There are no Terminator stories or John Connor’s existence without that future. Genesys & Dark Fate don’t respect that loop.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles series is actually really good & has a lot of interesting takes on the story/more/concept. Worth watching if you haven’t seen it.

Cameron did not direct or write Dark Fate. He gets producer credit as a courtesy & paycheck.

OMG, I’m an hour into this thing & had to shut it off. WTF *IS* this?!??! The writing, the acting, the cinematography, the music…horrible….and the worst sin, boring.

Watch Cloud Atlas. You’ll see an amazing movie with great characters, great acting, amazing editing, beautiful music. Definitely the Wachawski’s best work - but they collaborated with director Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run) & were adapting a great book. I have a feeling the extra talent they were working with & pulling from saved the day.

Dang, that’s an existential nightmare.

No, it just sucks because it sucks. It’s nostalgia bukkake & doesn’t understand what made the original great. Not that it has to recreate a formula, but if you’re going to do something different, it has to have something magical there & not just rely on “remember this” stuff. Same reason GB Afterlife sucked….but at least GBA was somewhat competent as a film.

I never saw a Mad Max movie before I saw Fury Road…so - having zero expectations or series knowledge, I really enjoyed it. It’s the type of apeshit movie full of style & action that we really don’t see anymore from current films.

Can’t explain it. I pretty much saw every movie in the 80s - went to the theater every week and watched tons on HBO. A few slipped through the cracks, and the few times I’ve tried to watch the original Mad Max, I just get really bored and turn it off lol. Maybe I’ll try again one day.

My grandma took me to see Robocop when I was 10 lol. My dad took me to Nightmare on Elm St. 3: Dream Warriors

Dune was really good. I thought it would be boring or confusing based on its cinematic history - but I really enjoyed it & am looking forward to Part 2.

You can get it and still think it sucks. How can you find Dune boring but not Faketrix 4?!

If someone told me this before I watched the new one, I’d never speak to them again.

It’s clear that everyone who hates this one is mostly BECAUSE they’re a fan of the original.

Well, putting on an accent for a character is much different than getting dubbed after filming. It wouldn’t make sense for Peter Parker to be played with Tom Holland’s real accent.

When I was a kid, I was so used to how Bob Hoskins sounded in Roger Rabbit & Super Mario, I thought he was putting on a fake accent for Hook. Blew my mind when I found out that was his real accent!

Uh….huh? Alls I’m saying is Peter Parker is a kid from NY, so the British actor is playing him with an American accent. Completely different thing than a company dubbing a movie because they think American audiences won’t want to watch a “foreign” movie.

What does dubbing have to do with purposeful accent choices have to do with canon have to do with The Matrix? Lol …can we just get back to Matrix 4 sucking ass?

I feel asleep 3 times before finally finishing it. Ooph. How unfortunate. I know Keanu’s acting has been made fun of before, but at the end of the day it usually works for his characters….but this? OMG…I think he was a fake CG AI & not even really Keanu. He blurts every word & each sentence has zero tone or emotion. It makes me wonder if he was even on set with anyone…maybe he shot all his scenes alone and they’d just feed him out of context lines to repeat.

Why wait for it on disc? It’s on HBO max now. Sign up for a free trial, watch it, and quit.

Wha….what?! Keanu’s acting in this movie is the absolute worst I’ve ever seen. They might as well have saved a few bucks and recast Neo with Tommy Wisseau.

Nah, we get what’s going on- it’s just poorly written, poorly acted, poorly, shot, poorly edited, poorly paced, poorly structured and was just a bunch of nonsense bullshit.

Cool, totally relevant to this thread. Sticking up for my friend is totally the same thing as a shitty movie
