"is more comfortable cramming references to the first film than doing anything different." That's a pass. I'm not sure people trying to relive a movie experience instead of creating a new one has ever made anything worthwhile. Ok... maybe Evil dead 2?

Highly recommend not watching the trailer! It gives away so many of the iconic surprises of the book. Seriously just read the book or go in blind to this show/movie. WTF is wrong with trailers showing us everything now.

Alba's take on the iconic comic book hero is unforgettable and one that fans will certainly think about for years to come.

Have literally never thought about this abomination after it came out other than seeing it in the dollar bins.

Good luck. Snake.

Great movie. I've seen many with the "one take" premise. Time code, Russian Ark and the ones that pretend but don't really. Rope and snake eyes. Victoria is an amazing feat of filmmaking.

God. I miss the days of these requests and bridge burning as a young punk. "Oh you don't want us to mention x y z" First song talk about whatever weird thing they don't want you to. "Oh you don't want us to swear?" First song getting the crowd to chat give me a f.u.c.k. "Oh we need to turn it down?" Crank it on the second song. We are young and angry and we were never expecting to get paid this all means nothing to us. Side note. Always be nice to the staff and sound person they are just doing their bullshit jobs.

I don't think it would be about the workforce but the fines. Most major corporations seem to try to avoid anything with stiff fines. They will straight up remove reviews rather than cut into the bottom dollar if the minimum fines are high enough.

I agree with the comments here. It's not very good but they go so far out of their way to laugh at themselves and the studio for making the film that it becomes charming. There are a lot of 80s / 90s sequel movies that make weird choices instead of rehasing and I'd much rather see something I'm not expecting. They know full well that a direct sequel would never please the fans so they basically destroy Matrix lore. I don't think Neo fires a gun which I found incredible as statement on the previous movies. So yah not good in the traditional sense but it's quite original in its post modern take on internet fandom, studio forcing sequels, lack of originality, commenting on not giving the audience what the think they want, etc.

Amazing photo. So cool to see. When I see things like this I wonder what flat earthers say when there are literally thousands of photos like this. Do they think there are people just a bunch of people creating fake photos?
