I wasn't expecting much of anything with the movie. I only watched it because it was free, and I was curious. The messaging about cash grabs, licensing, and lack of style were my favorite parts of the movie. It's just a shame that it exists and somewhat tarnishes the rest of the movies.

Yeah, but you did get to see an angry director have some corporate movie executives write her a check to tell them to fuck themselves in a pretty definitive manner.

That made me kind of happy, it was a relentless torrent of hate, but it seemed like it was aimed in the right direction.

Yes, I respected them a lot more after watching the movie than I did when it was announced.
