The Matrix
Jurassic Park
… can we just pretend? Please?
Unpopular opinion, I actually really like the third one
…uhhhhhhh, I would ask your mom if she smoked while pregnant with you. There’s clearly something wrong with the development of how your brain came out.
Look, I’m not saying any of them come close to the original, but imo it’s the second best of the series (including all the dogshit jurassic worlds) because it sticks to what made the first one great; small amount of people trapped on an island with dinos. The Lost World was like half that but then it turns in to some weird almost king kong-esq thing. Also i love me some Goldblum but he’s better as a foil imo and Chris Pratt has nowhere near the gravitas as Sam Neil. Like really besides the annoying parents what do you not like about the third one?
U can just say Téa Leoni is hot
District 9
I remember reading that they were trying to get District 10 done?
Yeah, but before the director made several more movies that were all bad. I don’t know how he keeps getting work.
And yet people keep giving Snyder money to make movies for stupid teenage boys.
Yeah, that’s another that makes no sense to me. People largely dislike all his recent works. “Let’s give him a huge budget for a two part star wars fan fic!”
Snyder has an amazing eye for action. Sucker Punch, 300, and Watchmen were all amazing visual/auditory feasts. Everything else about his movies is just average to below average, though.
Giving him a Star Wars makes perfect sense when you consider what Disney thinks of the Star Wars audience. “Just give them laser sword and space ships and explosions and they’ll be happy.”
Blomkamp is better in every way. I think he got blacklisted because the money guys didn’t like his social commentary.
Blokamp is great at effects and story ideas, he’s not a good director. Even District 9 is a bit of a directorial mess but there’s enough interesting story there to overcome that. The rest of his films? Not so much.
