  • We have been blessed with Part Two of the Rebel Moon Saga. I actually think the first chapter was better than this one. This series of movies should have had time to breathe a little and be a Netflix series and not a three-parter imho. I hope Part Three is better but I will reserve judgment until it is released.

      @flippert0, I would like to know that as well. Sir Anthony Hopkins is someone who can literally do anything and people will watch it. To reach a point in your career where you can elevate the entire film by your voice is god-tier skill. When he talks I paid attention to the film. I respect Sir Anthony Hopkins and his career choices.

      Tony was doing voices of some of his famous characters when he was recording his lines, Snyder told me he’s such a cool guy. I’m guessing you’re asking this in an insulting way as in he’s too good for it? What’s weird is many people I spoke to that was part of the movie were proud of what was made, unfortunately Netflix pitched the idea of making two movies and so we’ve not really seen the actual crazy full movie yet

      Like Judi Dench, Hopkins is at the stage of his career where he's a bona fide legend and he's won every award there is. So he's going to relax, goof off and take roles that amuse him or that he thinks the children in his family would like.

    • @yikesreviews
      @yikesreviews  Місяць тому +1

      @originallyjohn2196, Thank you very much for the comment and the sub. I was talking with my sister about this movie. How I was so angry, and sad while watching it and they told me that Zack Snyder and James Gunn have somewhat similar styles when it comes to writing and directing. They both worked on Dawn of the Dead so in much the same way they have come up together professionally. However, while one of the pair has gone on to do very well in terms of writing, directing and architecting the next iteration of a comic cinematic universe, the other part of the pair has floundered to reach the same heights.
      I think there is some small rivalry in Zack and he has not let that battle go where it appears James Gunn is moving on to bigger and better things. I could be wrong but it makes sense. Zack Snyder is a gifted director. He is able to set up a scene quite pleasing visually. However, the basics is what he has trouble with and trying to do too much and his ego is his Achilles heel.

    Tranformers: Revenge of the Fallen gave birth to so many critics we watch today. Jeremy Jahns, Stuckmann, and others.
    Rebel Moon 2 seems to be that new generation builder. It's universally hated, uniting even the most combative of UA-cam reviewer. So many channels are building off of the awfulness of this film. A new generation born...

    • @yikesreviews
      @yikesreviews  27 днів тому

      @jmsmys13ify Awesome comment by the way! Uniting through awfulness does bring the world together. I think because we can see the potential in what Snyder is trying to do. I admire the fact that Zack did not let Lucasfilm stop him from doing what he wanted to do. However, just because you can do a thing does not mean you should and if you do that thing do it to the best of your abilities. Rebel Moon is not Zack's best and I know he can do better. I'm just waiting to see it. Thank you for your comment and support.

If Zack can learn to get out of his way and let go of some of the control he has in the creative process I think we would be off to a great start.

      @frankallen3634 I actually like Man of Steel despite its flaws. Henry Cavill had the unfortunate task of working with the material he was given. Cavill believed in the character of Superman but was directed to show the sad, grim, dark side. I would have really loved to see a Man of Steel 2 but alas that ship has sailed. I'm hoping and believing that James Gunn will know how to direct one of the finest Superman movies since Donner's Superman. Thanks for your comment and support.

    No hate... but you should write a script for your rant. I know it's free form or free thought....but it's a bit random.
    And i know that someone will say something like "well the movie was also random" but still.
    And i don't mean an actual script but at least a rough outline. That will help with some of the stammering and unintentional pauses. You just didn't seem to be going in a clear direction. It was more of a ramble than a rant. I was at least somewhat distracted by the fact that you were losing your place.

Strip down the bullshit of the past decade or two and get back to the wonder, the heart of film-making. I know there is a film in Zack somewhere I just want to see it and not feel like I wasted my f***ing time. Thank you for your comment and support.

      Snyder is a visually evocative director. I can see pieces in the movie that fans would enjoy and I respect that. For me though, I'm left feeling dissatisfied with the movie as it was shown to me. Yeah, there's another cut that MIGHT be better but I am judging on the final product that Netflix premiered.

      @yuikendal4868 Snyder's films have always been visual fast food. The expectation of Snyder has been can you make this film look cool and get a lot of people to watch it. I think on that metric he has succeeded.
      However, he has been given validation by his ardent fans and studios that everything he does is acceptable. He struggles when it comes to writing that it takes a toll on his directing capabilities and vice versa. All of these aspects have turned the quality of his recent films from enjoyable visual spectacles to mediocre flights of fancy.
