    Both the first and second movie feels like they cut about 30 minutes from the middle, so I have 0 interest in this one.

      It’s a Sonyverse movie, what do you think?

      Reviews are mixed-to-negative. A lot of people are criticizing the plot, as it’s mostly a road trip buddy movie instead of carrying the vibe of the first two. Some are even saying it’s the worst of the trilogy.

      Personally, I enjoyed it for what it is, but then again, I also enjoyed the Tomorrowverse, so maybe I have bad taste.

    So?

    Like seriously though, besides the owners of the IP that get to rake in all the milked franchise money, who the fuck gives a shit about how much a move made?

    Does it make fans feel better that their favourite IP made some money for a corporation?

    Like that has got to be the most uninteresting and capitalistic metric to judge a film.

      I believe people should care about how much money a movie makes. The more money it makes, the greater the likelihood that we will see more movies like it.

      Like that has got to be the most uninteresting and capitalistic metric to judge a film.

      No one is judging this movie, or any movie, based on how much it made. Box office gross has nothing to do with a film’s quality, or lack thereof.
