He has done it again! Should Zack just stop? I hope everyone is doing well and remember if you liked this video give it a Like and Subscribe to the channel. And sharing the video is always a great help. Cheers Legends!
Thing is, Seven Samurais _in space_ has already been done too. Battle Beyond the Stars was one I saw on TV as a kid when it first came out many decades ago. It's campy as hell. It has a spaceship with boobs! And it's still better than this tripe.
Maybe he should move on to doing short films instead or get a writer to help him out. But I couldn’t care less if he decides to stop due to massively failing and losing all his money trying to make movies. I don’t have to watch his future films either if he keeps making them just so none of my money is spent on garbage.
what really annoyed me about that royal murder scene is that she kills all the armed guards and then just leaves. Instead of you know, killing the actual murderers with that high powered energy weapon she has. they only have knives Imagine all the lives that would have been saved and all the trouble she would have avoided if she had cut the head of the snake right there
We don't even cut wheat by hand now so in a sci fi future with robots, floating platforms and space travel they can't find an easier way to collect wheat
@@maelstrom2313 yeah but they still had floating platforms so even if they made them then taken away wouldn't there be someone who created something better before being taken away
What's even worse about the farming scene is that in part 1, Noble offered to pay for the grain 3x its worth and give them farming equipment that would help the farmers till the fields and harvest their grain faster. But the village elder said that they preferred to work with their hands 'cause they were closer to the earth, or something. But hover beds are allowed to bring the wheat in from the fields I guess.
Also when faced with extinction for not bringing in enough grain, surely you can use better tech just this once, right? He just doomed his people because he wouldn't accept help for just 1 harvest. Like you can go back to your old ways after you prevented your deaths!
Star Wars visual design language: familiar and used, but futuristic. Rebel Moon: Literally any period costume/prop/set that was lying around the art department.
Battle Beyond the Stars told the EXACT same story better, AND actually had several good reasons that our heroes could win against the space nazis, in that the recruited warriors had a combination of technologies and tools that would give the town a fighting chance. (hand weapons, very fast trench building technology, each hero had their own unique fighting spaceship and unique scifi racial abilities)
This movie gave me an appreciation for Disney Star Wars. At least I like the character design. The space ships and battles sorta feel like Star Wars and look pretty good. Here the color palette and weird flat light just look awful. The slow motion is unbearable. Is it to pad the run time? There is so much the movie would be a third shorter without it. I made it maybe 10min. My mother turned it on when I was at her house. Luckily I was just about to leave anyway. Shit I just realized it was the first one. I guess it doesn’t make much difference.
@@franohmsford7548 BBtS did this exact story and plot SO MUCH BETTER, I can only conclude that Zack Snyder has never seen BBtS, because if he had, he could have just stolen like all the elements from that much better B movie. Why not have the recruited heroes have enough small arms to equip the town ? Why not have the recruited heroes have tech that can just build defensive trenches quickly ? and of course, why not have spaceship VS spaceship, in your space opera ? This worked so much better in BBtS, because each hero had their own cool 'x-wing fighter' style spaceship, and they were all different sizes and had different weapon systems, so even if the space nazis had more ships, the hero ships were clearly better, and had a kind of 'diversity is our strength' thing going, where they could deux ex machina some cool shit to turn the tide, where here there is literally no way they should ever win, or even have a chance for a fair fight, since there is no reason for the bad guys to even land their forces near the town, since they don't even need the grain at all !
@@sprinkle61 Oh...I think he's seen it. He's the exact age and demographic to have seen it at the drive-in when it came out. Just like me. But richer. And more of a c@nt.
There was also a sci-fi interpretation of the story made in 2004 as a single season limited series anime called "Samurai 7." Also much better than Rebel Moon. Snyder capitalized on the idea of "What if it was Seven Samurai, but with too much slow motion and it was bad?" Jeez, I mean even Pocahontas/Dances with Wolves in Space "Avatar" was better than Rebel Moon.
I'm so glad that I don't have to watch garbage and be unhappy but instead watch hilarious reviews of said garbage, and laugh! Thanks RH! I got a lot of crap for liking "Sucker Punch," but these 2 abortions make "Sucker Punch" practically Oscar worthy!!! Thanks again!! 😀
"I imagine it's going to be really hard for a handful of Space Amish farmers who've barely had any time to train and prepare their defenses to fend off an entire army of Space Socialists with superior numbers and weaponry..." "Actually it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience!"
Nah, it'll be fine. The interstellar, space national socialists are running their ships on coal. The eventual heat death of the universe will happen first.
Yep, "space nazi" isn't what I thought when seeing those uniforms. Looked more like Space Soviets with their cold war era Soviet style uniforms. Although, if that was the case then the farmers would be shot and the rest sent to die in working in a gulag while the farm was collectivized (i.e. taken by the govt). Yeah, checks out.
One of the most hilarious things for me with the farming scenes was no matter what generous explanations we might be able to conjure up to explain why tech is missing or not used in various ways there is absolutely no way of excusing the levitating cart still being pulled by a fucking horse.
I heard the scene about the banners and was struck by a "what could have been". What if each person in the village is given a personalized banner. Perhaps they receive one when they are old enough to begin helping with the harvest. It's a sign of adulthood. We could see all the villagers display their own banners in their houses, even our main girl. Banners are kept by a villager until they die, when it is burned with their body. This could have been a moment of the villagers accepting the warriors not as hired guards, but as members of the village. But instead, it's just nothing.
The first one was legitimately one of the worst films I've ever seen. And his responses to criticism are mental. I think his best film is 300, and he has a great eye for cinematography. But he's a one-trick, and clearly can't write.
At least Tommy Wiseau and Neil Breen movies are so bad that it's funny, Snyder after Watchmen has made movies so bad that isn't not even funny, and the Rebel Moon garbo may just be the worst movies ever made.
Battlefield Earth was also a garbage movie that at least entertained us at a comical level…if you are talking about John Travolta playing evil space lord Jonathan Davis of Korn.
When I was 12, my friends and I wanted to film a Star Wars parody. Initially, we considered starting with the same opening as in 'A New Hope,' but then cutting to shots of coal workers from the Titanic after showing a huge Star Destroyer. At the time, we thought about how stupid that would be...
No joke! Dawn of the Dead was written by James Gunn (lol), 300 and Watchmen are like near word for word/page for page adaptations of their respective graphic novels (Frank Miller and Alan Moore), even Man of Steel was written by Goyer and Nolan. The more creative control Snyder has the worse his movies have gotten.
Take your shots against ole Joss Whedon, but when he had very little capital to convey a big sci fi battle, there was only screaming in the background. His character: "we are just too damn pretty for God to let us die" (paraphrased). Firefly and other older TV shows were masterpieces because they made so much out of so little.
@BizznessBox Bro Snyder is damn washed out its disgusting. He did the terrible "sit around the campfire and everyone give direct exposition about their background" shtick back in suicide squad and he got universally DOGGED for that movie. He has ZERO self awareness. Truly failing upward
Someone really should tell Zack he sucks as a film maker. But given he's like every other narcissistic person in the film industry, he never looks at social media or even any reviews from critics apparently. So I assume, much like Darth Kennedy LucasNerf, he is surrounded by yes people who prop up his ridiculous ego so he'll always expect positive reactions to his hot garbage; and would most likely reject any critism as hate, like they all do these days.
This is what I've been saying. An imperial general who refuses orders to destroy a disobedient planet because he's come to care for the locals and eventually rebels with his men both is a bit more original than the 200th seven samurai remake and also armed soldiers with their own ships and munitions makes a lot more sense than training farmers to fight a world destroying army.
I laughed my ass off the whole time at how bad it was. How completely serious it took itself. Imagining how anyone involved with making the movie could look at the finished product with pride. Hilarious!
It surprises me so many people think that Kora is called the Scargiver because of the scar Noble got in part two, but she was already known as the Scargiver in part one. It's of course never explained where the name came from, but it's not a new nickname.
@@paulgibbon5991 Why would that make her a bad soldier? You think a soldier is only successful if he/she kills every opponent he/she encounters? Maybe the scars she gave to her opponents were the scars of missing limbs. Or they are metaphorical scars, because she ends more relationships than Taylor Swift.
@@paulgibbon5991 In reality it is more useful tactically to wound enemy combatants and have the other side need to evacuate and hospitalize them rather than killing them. Better yet, if they are maimed and can never return to battle again. That's a huge drain on enemy resources. Having to support a cripple that's unfit for duty.
In school we had to write a creative writing 3 page story. A friend wrote 27 pages and said the whole thing was basically one big space battle…..with loads of explosions. Needless to say he was very surprised when he got a C. He learnt at 13 what Zach Snyder hasn’t in his entire career. Ironically I prefer his story to the story that got top marks….which was a drama piece about a guy killing his abusive mum. Not one explosion (not even a little one)
Not just style over substance, but basically no substance at all, and the styles are just a random mishmash of better things, a little Tarzan, a little Pride and Prejudice, a little a bugs life, a little Battle Beyond the Stars, a little nazis, a little Little house on the Prairie, even a little of the home scene from 300
There's no style. It's a crap attempt at recyling tacky imagery from 1970s and early 1980s "Adult" comics like Metal Hurlant and Epic Unlimited. Badly. Very badly.
@@alienalchemist According to Snyder, the big head thing that Korra put the explosives on, is a ''space god'' that the Empire enslaved and is powering the ship. ......and they feed it with coal. How does this shit even work?! I have no idea.... I'm not making this up btw. that's on the off. FanWiki site. ( Yes, there's a Rebel Moon FanWiki!)
Is it just the one village that has grain fields? Could the Empire not occupy a different part of the planet and harvest wheat there? How would one village even be able to feed their entire crew, let alone Empire? Nothing makes sense.
I really wish some of these movie productions would stop doing the cliche of having gigantic moons and/or gas giants in close proximity to the planet they're on. Somebody needs to teach them about the Roche Limit.
@@Chilicharger665 Essentially, if something orbits too close to another body (as defined by their masses), it gets torn apart by gravity varying too much across its surface. That's probably how Saturn got its rings, and it'll also happen to Phobos and Triton (the moons of Mars and Neptune) in several million years.
@@Chilicharger665 Basically, a moon or large celestial body can't be that close to a planet, once it's within the planet's Roche Limit the gravitational tidal forces will break the moon up or pull it into the planet. Yes, I can see that a giant planet or series of moons looks cool floating in the sky in a sci-fi movie, but that's not how science works.
Except that makes no sense; what, he went 13 parsecs in 12 parsecs? How is there a shorter route in space? But, it sounded cool, and it was plot-relevant, so it's no big deal.
@@billjacobs521 Well you're not wrong. But think of it in terms of a navigator bragging about his skills. And for Han's boasting to have any weight you have to assume that the Kessel Run poses several navigational challenges ie. it isn't just a straight shot. It's a great bit of dialogue because in a single line it really helps establish Han's character in the viewer's mind. Unfortunately the audience had no understanding of the Kessel Run so most people when they heard it for the first time assumed that the writer didn't know what a parsec is, because they assume Han is boasting about how fast he can go. So maybe the line, memorable as it is, is not quite so great after all. As we eventually learn -- though not in the the movie -- the Kessel Run is normally a 20 parsec hyperspace route. Hyperspace travel requires a navigator to plot the route. If Han did what he claimed then he would indeed be a good navigator.
You guys are all talking now about how terrible Zack's matter is for having his character sit around in a circle and give backstory but none of you crapped on the terrible Batman versus Superman scene where they did basically the same thing with a dumb scene with a thumb drive with all the superheroes logos on it. I mean there's so much of his crappy mindset all over his movies and the only good movies that he has were written by smarter people like James Gunn and Frank Miller
I had to resist laughing at my friend's comment that the dinner scene and the banner stuff they made for the heroes, was on par with Guardians of the Galaxy where they let loose their dirty laundry before the final act.
I won't lie, that scene more than almost any other really lends credence to the theory that this movie was written by AI that had other popular movies' scripts fed to it. "And now scene where heroic sad character with no emotions to display but who has secretly bonded with random npc child, dies saving said npc child from evil Nazis. Child is very sad. Scene is very poignant and meaningful because 7,249 movie scripts user has fed this prompt generator have said so.
@thehoerscorral8565 lmao yeah, it needed more a fleshed out meaning. Why didn't they just make them the same race and her be like his Aunt that left town or something? Random kid all of a sudden sad made little to no sense.
I forgot how terrible the androgynous one looked when they were doing the flag things 😂 cheers for that. I still can’t get over coal powered hyperdrive spaceships 😂😂
You actually bring up a very good point during that royal family assassination scene. If all the dignitaries just turned to her in silence and glared menacingly, it slowly would have become apparent she was the fall guy. But zack snyder cant help himself, so he has to write it in a way that is cartoonishly stupid where they suddenly are all screaming at the top of their lungs how she's a murderer. It's such a simple easy fix, but everything has to be over the top daytime soap opera levels of "drama". Zack snyder has no filter, he clearly has nobody on the writing/production crew that has the balls to speak up and say "no zack... that's stupid. Do this instead."
I just don't understand how these people continue to fleece the corporations into giving them millions of dollars to produce absolute tripe. Where is the accountability? Where is the due diligence? There isn't any!
The problem is that it was too goofy! Whilst not going all the way into Spoof territory. If Will and Kevin had calmed down a bit Wild Wild West could have been decent fun.
So you're telling me that out of a whole planet that is potentially fertile for growing wheat, the evil empire concentrates on only one village, that somehow appears to be only producing place in the entire moon.
So they traverse galaxies on coal drive. And they want grain. Will they grind it? Do they have a baker? Maybe one of the funny hat guys will do pancakes?
@@Six_Gorillion lol a spaceship has to defend itself against any point in a sphere and you say analog feels better. You should ask to join the writers on Rebel Moon 3. With your Napoleonic mastery of artillery, you'd be an invaluablel consultant. You know, to keep things real. Unless you're just cranking one out and I missed the sarcasm
It's weird, I thought he was crap all the way back with Dawn of the Dead. Looks like I was a little too early, but I was right. As far as I'm concerned, 300 was his only redemption.
I keep thinking about this movie. Not because it was good, but because I felt like this film wasted my time, pissed off the part of me that loves storytelling and movie making. I can't stop thinking about it, every time I think about that one scene with the orchestra, I feel.....depressed. Every scene has something wrong happening in it. This film was a fever dream that I can't forget about. Thanks Zach, you made a film that's so bad I can't stop thinking about how bad it is.
Lmao even WHEN everything goes to shit & not according to plan, the orchestra still plays the background music matching the action😭😭 Also, you should’ve added the big baddie saying “do it💅 kill her DO it”! His voice (I didn’t watch the movie just a clip) made me crack up it was so high😂
When it comes to science fiction or fantasy I can forgive a lot of sins. But one thing I am not able to forgive is the idea of coal powered spaceships. Or demigod powered spaceships for that matter.
Mara looks very jupiter like, and from other shots it looks like Veldt is quite close to the planet. Jupiter's inner major moon Io takes 1.8 days to orbit... Europa takes 3.6. Even if the gas giant was less dense, it was farther out than it seemed, etc... there's no way the orbit is over 6 days. So half a cycle has gotta be less than 3 days ;p Also, an object that close to a gas giant will become tidally locked, where a day and an orbit last the same time... so really it should be "We can't do it in 3 days, it usually takes us half a day!"
Everytime one of these dumpster fires is released I ask myself if anyone at Netflix read the script first? And did anyone at Netflix say "Coal powered spaceships is dumb as hell! And a galactic empire is desperate for grain from one small village?"
My biggest question is the lady with the lightsabers cut off bother her arms before putting on the robo hands. Cuz we clearly see her cut off her left arm, then it cuts to her putting on the left robo at with her right (now) robo arm. How does that work exactly?!
I re-watched the first one twice, because I thought I missed something and was about to set up an appointment to get assessed for adult ADHD. From what I've seen of the second, I am pretty sure that's what having a stroke feels like.
It's funny that the ships in this film are powered by coal because I remember when you made that analogy in your video about the bombers in TLJ. Makes me wonder if Zack saw your video and thought "That's a good idea. Better write that down."
I think "Half a cycle 'round 'morrow" means they'll be halfway through the harvesting cycle by tomorrow. Meaning that by the time the cycle is halfway done, which seems to be that many weeks have passed since the harvest began, they'll have just two days left to finish the harvest. And once you take that into consideration, THAT'S EVEN WORSE! Two days to finish a harvest that's only halfway done! That's not how farming works!
Bro you mentioned the hovering platform and thats hilarious all by itself but what makes it even more golden is the scene where the "Alien" horse is pulling the hovering platform!!!😂 This movie was a travesty.......
Why is "the prince", whatever his name is, proficient with axes? Wasn't he just wearing a suit in his back story dump scene? How can he fight? Isn't he just some aristocrat?
He has done it again! Should Zack just stop? I hope everyone is doing well and remember if you liked this video give it a Like and Subscribe to the channel. And sharing the video is always a great help. Cheers Legends!
Zack lost everything with BvS
Zack needs to at least stop writing. I'd like to see a comparison with other directors who've dropped off. The Wachowskis come to mind.
if zack was making a movie with val kilmer in the 90s, his face would've been burnt by now
Thing is, Seven Samurais _in space_ has already been done too. Battle Beyond the Stars was one I saw on TV as a kid when it first came out many decades ago. It's campy as hell. It has a spaceship with boobs! And it's still better than this tripe.
Maybe he should move on to doing short films instead or get a writer to help him out. But I couldn’t care less if he decides to stop due to massively failing and losing all his money trying to make movies. I don’t have to watch his future films either if he keeps making them just so none of my money is spent on garbage.
Snyder - OK, now scream. Action!
Actor - AAaaaaaaaa!
Snyder - Cut. Scream in slow motion. Action!
Actor - A A a a a a a a a a a a a !
So Snyder's ultimate goal was to make a big budget rip off of A Bugs Life but with even less convincing CGI lol
Whats sad about that is the characters in a bugs life are supposed to look abit cartoony. Whats Snyders excuse
A Bug's Life has a ladybug undergoing an arc of accepting his femininity. Snyder wishes he can write arcs this good.
what really annoyed me about that royal murder scene is that she kills all the armed guards and then just leaves. Instead of you know, killing the actual murderers with that high powered energy weapon she has. they only have knives
Imagine all the lives that would have been saved and all the trouble she would have avoided if she had cut the head of the snake right there
>Kills a literal child.
>Refuses to kill the villain.
>Kills a bunch of random soldiers on her way out.
What did Zack mean by this?
@@DonVigaDeFierroprobably wanted to communicate ”I am actually inept and all my cred comes from nepotism“
Plot sounds like Pixar’s ‘A Bugs Life’ where the ants had to harvest the grain before Hoper arrives!
Which itself is derivative of Seven Samurai, a way better film
@@ramert32 Bug's Life was still a good film on its own, though. Hopper made that film great.

"Give me your food or i get the insecticide."

This movie reminds me of atrocities like Battlefield Earth or Jupiter Ascending.
Battlefield Earth at least had the unintentional comedy going for it. It was so bad it was awesome.
I disagree. Those two films were hilarious. This is just dire.
@@bjornskivids yh atleast with battlefield earth you had overacting John Travolta keeping you entertained
@@rhyslightning3037 Good point
At least Jupiter Ascending had some ambition, Also, Mila Kunis, which is always a plus in my book.
The guy from "Amastad" has played the guy from "Amastad" in every movie since "Amastad".
No kidding. If “token” had a picture in the dictionary, he’d be the guy 😂
Who?
omg lmao
6 rebel moon movies? - not sure whether to laugh of cry, so I'll do both: 🤣😂😅😪😭😪😅😂🤣😂😅😪😭
I hope not. I'd prefer 2 'trilogies'. Aren't they all the rage ? 😁
Someone really should tell Zack he sucks as a film maker. But given he's like every other narcissistic person in the film industry, he never looks at social media or even any reviews from critics apparently. So I assume, much like Darth Kennedy LucasNerf, he is surrounded by yes people who prop up his ridiculous ego so he'll always expect positive reactions to his hot garbage; and would most likely reject any critism as hate, like they all do these days.
Honestly would have liked the movie better if it was just about General Titus. Djimon Hounsou is the only one worth a damn! Lol
This is what I've been saying. An imperial general who refuses orders to destroy a disobedient planet because he's come to care for the locals and eventually rebels with his men both is a bit more original than the 200th seven samurai remake and also armed soldiers with their own ships and munitions makes a lot more sense than training farmers to fight a world destroying army.
I laughed my ass off the whole time at how bad it was. How completely serious it took itself. Imagining how anyone involved with making the movie could look at the finished product with pride. Hilarious!
Just another example of Hollywood relegating Djimon Hounsou to roles he's too talented for.
It surprises me so many people think that Kora is called the Scargiver because of the scar Noble got in part two, but she was already known as the Scargiver in part one. It's of course never explained where the name came from, but it's not a new nickname.
“It was never explained” well that certainly explains why both the movies are a load of shit
And wouldn't that nickname mean she's not a very good soldier, if so many of the people she fights survive to show off their scars?
@@paulgibbon5991 Why would that make her a bad soldier? You think a soldier is only successful if he/she kills every opponent he/she encounters? Maybe the scars she gave to her opponents were the scars of missing limbs. Or they are metaphorical scars, because she ends more relationships than Taylor Swift.
@@paulgibbon5991 In reality it is more useful tactically to wound enemy combatants and have the other side need to evacuate and hospitalize them rather than killing them. Better yet, if they are maimed and can never return to battle again. That's a huge drain on enemy resources. Having to support a cripple that's unfit for duty.
Zack Snyder is a 16 YO with a budget.
I'm amazed he is a middle aged man with a family 👍
Doesn’t that insult 16 year olds? A 5 year old more like.
In school we had to write a creative writing 3 page story.
A friend wrote 27 pages and said the whole thing was basically one big space battle…..with loads of explosions.
Needless to say he was very surprised when he got a C. He learnt at 13 what Zach Snyder hasn’t in his entire career.
Ironically I prefer his story to the story that got top marks….which was a drama piece about a guy killing his abusive mum. Not one explosion (not even a little one)
The way you finished that gave me Sam Rockwell vibes in seven psychopaths. "No shoot outs?!?!? No shoot outs?!?!?"
Hot Garbage is too good of a description for this show..
Tepid garbage.='[.]'=
Imagine screwing up big time at work and telling the customer "well you'd better get used to it 'cause there plenty more to come"
And then imagine having the audacity to be offended when that same audience goes “nah, we’ve got better things to do with our time”
A barista just pisses in a cup. The manager tells him to make 5 more. Or something like that
"Princess Slayer"! Noice!
Zack Snyder once again brings us
Style over Substance
the style is old and stale, too. as the audience has grown, he's somehow regressed.
Not just style over substance, but basically no substance at all, and the styles are just a random mishmash of better things, a little Tarzan, a little Pride and Prejudice, a little a bugs life, a little Battle Beyond the Stars, a little nazis, a little Little house on the Prairie, even a little of the home scene from 300
There's no style. It's a crap attempt at recyling tacky imagery from 1970s and early 1980s "Adult" comics like Metal Hurlant and Epic Unlimited. Badly. Very badly.
As wide as the ocean, as deep as a puddle.
On a different note, here’s a hot take
“Style over substance” almost perfectly describes Bladerunner 2049
Modern movies illustrate the degradation of human mind.
Its amazing how most film makers today have taken the Michael Bay approach to film making….. and people think its good film making 🤦♂️
I disagree. I think the fact that they’re bombing shows that audience still demand good entertainment.
Can't belive how low stake, slow mo, drab, grain-infused BS this is.
Man you putting in clips of the Magnificent Seven, makes Rebel Moon look even worse. I didn't think it was possible.
Rebel moon part 3 - the fart sniffer
This garbage is a trilogy??? Good Lord, what a train wreck
Its gonna be a hexology@@crazyralph6386
"Laughably Stupid" the tag line for Rebel Moon AND Zach Snyder.
Coal fusion. 😅
How dafuq they achieved space travel with coal? Unless the coal is actually Dark Matter.
@@alienalchemist It's possible, it's just incredibly weight-inefficient.
@@alienalchemist According to Snyder, the big head thing that Korra put the explosives on, is a ''space god'' that the Empire enslaved and is powering the ship.
......and they feed it with coal.
How does this shit even work?!
I have no idea....
I'm not making this up btw. that's on the off. FanWiki site. ( Yes, there's a Rebel Moon FanWiki!)
It's space coal, much more caloric value than common one 😂
@@doublep1980
So there's millions of these space gods being as an engine?
Is it just the one village that has grain fields? Could the Empire not occupy a different part of the planet and harvest wheat there? How would one village even be able to feed their entire crew, let alone Empire? Nothing makes sense.
That shit remind me of Star Wars when they need to find something in a planet and they just happen to land on the exact location it is.
I really wish some of these movie productions would stop doing the cliche of having gigantic moons and/or gas giants in close proximity to the planet they're on. Somebody needs to teach them about the Roche Limit.
Teach us. I've never heard of that.
@@Chilicharger665 Essentially, if something orbits too close to another body (as defined by their masses), it gets torn apart by gravity varying too much across its surface. That's probably how Saturn got its rings, and it'll also happen to Phobos and Triton (the moons of Mars and Neptune) in several million years.
thanks, I've just been knowledgenated.
@@Chilicharger665 Basically, a moon or large celestial body can't be that close to a planet, once it's within the planet's Roche Limit the gravitational tidal forces will break the moon up or pull it into the planet. Yes, I can see that a giant planet or series of moons looks cool floating in the sky in a sci-fi movie, but that's not how science works.
@@stevew8513don't gas giants just absorb the other planet once the gravity starts to pull it in?
The grain extends life. The grain expands consciousness. The grain is vital to space travel. That guy from Dune.
Parsecs is a measure of distance. Han is actually bragging about his abilities as a navigator ie. plotting a shorter route.
He was actually bullshitting an old man and a farm boy he guesses don't know any better, at least in the original script.
@@eXpriestuntil they tried to justify it in the solo film. It was better when he was talking nonsense
@@crankfastle8138 Yes.
Except that makes no sense; what, he went 13 parsecs in 12 parsecs? How is there a shorter route in space? But, it sounded cool, and it was plot-relevant, so it's no big deal.
@@billjacobs521 Well you're not wrong. But think of it in terms of a navigator bragging about his skills. And for Han's boasting to have any weight you have to assume that the Kessel Run poses several navigational challenges ie. it isn't just a straight shot. It's a great bit of dialogue because in a single line it really helps establish Han's character in the viewer's mind. Unfortunately the audience had no understanding of the Kessel Run so most people when they heard it for the first time assumed that the writer didn't know what a parsec is, because they assume Han is boasting about how fast he can go. So maybe the line, memorable as it is, is not quite so great after all.
As we eventually learn -- though not in the the movie -- the Kessel Run is normally a 20 parsec hyperspace route. Hyperspace travel requires a navigator to plot the route. If Han did what he claimed then he would indeed be a good navigator.
The Magnificent/Seven Samurai in Space?
I suppose to compare this to Battle Beyond the Stars would be a grave insult to Battle Beyond the Stars.
They didn’t need the grain anymore because his entire army was slaughtered so there was no one left to feed!!🤣🤣🤣
You guys are all talking now about how terrible Zack's matter is for having his character sit around in a circle and give backstory but none of you crapped on the terrible Batman versus Superman scene where they did basically the same thing with a dumb scene with a thumb drive with all the superheroes logos on it. I mean there's so much of his crappy mindset all over his movies and the only good movies that he has were written by smarter people like James Gunn and Frank Miller
The seventh samurai set in Outer space was already done by Roger Corman in battle beyond the stars back when I was in junior high I’m almost 60.
I had to resist laughing at my friend's comment that the dinner scene and the banner stuff they made for the heroes, was on par with Guardians of the Galaxy where they let loose their dirty laundry before the final act.
Ah yes organic wheat, the most valuable commodity in the spacefaring universe, that’s why our movie is set in Amish Space Ukraine
12:09 You truely are a robot with that statement 😂
I won't lie, that scene more than almost any other really lends credence to the theory that this movie was written by AI that had other popular movies' scripts fed to it. "And now scene where heroic sad character with no emotions to display but who has secretly bonded with random npc child, dies saving said npc child from evil Nazis. Child is very sad. Scene is very poignant and meaningful because 7,249 movie scripts user has fed this prompt generator have said so.
@thehoerscorral8565 lmao yeah, it needed more a fleshed out meaning. Why didn't they just make them the same race and her be like his Aunt that left town or something? Random kid all of a sudden sad made little to no sense.
I forgot how terrible the androgynous one looked when they were doing the flag things 😂 cheers for that. I still can’t get over coal powered hyperdrive spaceships 😂😂
You actually bring up a very good point during that royal family assassination scene. If all the dignitaries just turned to her in silence and glared menacingly, it slowly would have become apparent she was the fall guy. But zack snyder cant help himself, so he has to write it in a way that is cartoonishly stupid where they suddenly are all screaming at the top of their lungs how she's a murderer. It's such a simple easy fix, but everything has to be over the top daytime soap opera levels of "drama". Zack snyder has no filter, he clearly has nobody on the writing/production crew that has the balls to speak up and say "no zack... that's stupid. Do this instead."
I just don't understand how these people continue to fleece the corporations into giving them millions of dollars to produce absolute tripe. Where is the accountability? Where is the due diligence? There isn't any!
Don't forget that in addition to the +6-part series, Zack plans to have "Director cuts"of each episode.
Can anyone honestly say that Wild Wild West wasn’t a bunch of goofy fun?
I never liked it. Too campy and silly
The problem is that it was too goofy!
Whilst not going all the way into Spoof territory.
If Will and Kevin had calmed down a bit Wild Wild West could have been decent fun.
It was cheesy fun, at least. Kenneth Branagh, and his giant spider, saved it.
The politically incorrect banter between Will Smith & Kenneth Branagh was the highlight for me.
Yes, I can. The TV series was great. The movie was everything wrong with modern movie adaptations.
So you're telling me that out of a whole planet that is potentially fertile for growing wheat, the evil empire concentrates on only one village, that somehow appears to be only producing place in the entire moon.
So they traverse galaxies on coal drive. And they want grain. Will they grind it? Do they have a baker?
Maybe one of the funny hat guys will do pancakes?
You forgot about thermal vision periscope sights for the single big gun on a spaceship needing to be hand-cranked to maneuver the barrels lol
They need that organic, hand harvested, family owned grain for their famous spacenazi IPAs, which is the main export fueling their war economy.
@@mikestafford6900 Analog just feels better man. You would know if you were into guns at all man.
@@Six_Gorillion lol a spaceship has to defend itself against any point in a sphere and you say analog feels better. You should ask to join the writers on Rebel Moon 3. With your Napoleonic mastery of artillery, you'd be an invaluablel consultant. You know, to keep things real. Unless you're just cranking one out and I missed the sarcasm
@@mikestafford6900You missed the sarcasm
How ZS still gets work, I don't know. Think he may be in the same secret club as Kathleen Kennedy
It's weird, I thought he was crap all the way back with Dawn of the Dead. Looks like I was a little too early, but I was right. As far as I'm concerned, 300 was his only redemption.
That king reminds me of horrible histories, is this some sort of peasant joke I'm too rich to understand. 😂
That warrior scream they all did at the end was pure cringe.
Seven Samurai in space was done before as Battle Beyond the Stars.
I keep thinking about this movie. Not because it was good, but because I felt like this film wasted my time, pissed off the part of me that loves storytelling and movie making. I can't stop thinking about it, every time I think about that one scene with the orchestra, I feel.....depressed. Every scene has something wrong happening in it. This film was a fever dream that I can't forget about. Thanks Zach, you made a film that's so bad I can't stop thinking about how bad it is.
Lmao even WHEN everything goes to shit & not according to plan, the orchestra still plays the background music matching the action😭😭
Also, you should’ve added the big baddie saying “do it💅 kill her DO it”! His voice (I didn’t watch the movie just a clip) made me crack up it was so high😂
The Wild Wild West was a great flick when i was a child. Wild West, 5th Element, Rush Hour, and M.I.B. shaped my childhood.
didnt that movie have slama hayeks asscrack in it? I think it did. Robot head confirmed gay.
The fact that Disney preferred the current scripts they're going with over this really says a lot about how bad it really is.
Around the table I kept thinking of "Miek wants to tell his story!"
3 days? Well... Venus' days last about 250 earth days. How long is a day in that planet?
I'm convinced Zac Snyder is your uncle and only making these movies to keep your channel in business!
I love how all the villagers speak stunted English as though its their second language.
When it comes to science fiction or fantasy I can forgive a lot of sins. But one thing I am not able to forgive is the idea of coal powered spaceships. Or demigod powered spaceships for that matter.
Apparently is coal-powered demigods.
Wait... Masculinized female protagonist actually has a straight sex scene? =0[.]o=
The first one was so bad, I decided not to waste a couple of hours of my life on part 2.
Once more, we have a crappy movie for you to take apart of in front of our eyes. A day of happiness.
Sci-fi about fighting over wheat. Sounds exciting.
Sofia with her teen face, body and voice - veteran-stormtrooper...🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Snyder, this is a really funny joke! 👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣💥
Mara looks very jupiter like, and from other shots it looks like Veldt is quite close to the planet.
Jupiter's inner major moon Io takes 1.8 days to orbit... Europa takes 3.6. Even if the gas giant was less dense, it was farther out than it seemed, etc... there's no way the orbit is over 6 days. So half a cycle has gotta be less than 3 days ;p
Also, an object that close to a gas giant will become tidally locked, where a day and an orbit last the same time... so really it should be "We can't do it in 3 days, it usually takes us half a day!"
Everytime one of these dumpster fires is released I ask myself if anyone at Netflix read the script first? And did anyone at Netflix say "Coal powered spaceships is dumb as hell! And a galactic empire is desperate for grain from one small village?"
The moment Zac Snider turned on Geeks and gamers I thought he was a total looser... I was actually right for once!
No kidding. He turned on the fandom
My biggest question is the lady with the lightsabers cut off bother her arms before putting on the robo hands. Cuz we clearly see her cut off her left arm, then it cuts to her putting on the left robo at with her right (now) robo arm. How does that work exactly?!
PrincessSlayer - Ha, see what you did there!
I re-watched the first one twice, because I thought I missed something and was about to set up an appointment to get assessed for adult ADHD. From what I've seen of the second, I am pretty sure that's what having a stroke feels like.
I would have loved to hear the screaming goats from love and thunder dubbed over the screams at 12.38
It's funny that the ships in this film are powered by coal because I remember when you made that analogy in your video about the bombers in TLJ. Makes me wonder if Zack saw your video and thought "That's a good idea. Better write that down."
Ha! I forgot about that. Maybe I should expect a royalty cheque 👍😅
@@RobotHead Yeah, that'd be great. Also, he should hire you as a script doctor cause he really needs one.
snyder doesn't have a 'best of' list, he's got a 'least worst.'
Indeed. Even Dawn of the Dead falls apart in the third act.
I think "Half a cycle 'round 'morrow" means they'll be halfway through the harvesting cycle by tomorrow.
Meaning that by the time the cycle is halfway done, which seems to be that many weeks have passed since the harvest began, they'll have just two days left to finish the harvest.
And once you take that into consideration, THAT'S EVEN WORSE! Two days to finish a harvest that's only halfway done! That's not how farming works!
the acolyte episode 3: *allow me to introduce myself*
It just looks awful....so so bad...like most new movies...just looks wrong
Bro you mentioned the hovering platform and thats hilarious all by itself but what makes it even more golden is the scene where the "Alien" horse is pulling the hovering platform!!!😂
This movie was a travesty.......
Why is "the prince", whatever his name is, proficient with axes? Wasn't he just wearing a suit in his back story dump scene? How can he fight? Isn't he just some aristocrat?
I laughed through most of part 2. Have to go now I only have 1/64th of a cycle around Mara to bring the laundry in.
Why does someone called "scargiver" give you a scar in a place you can easily hide it like your chest lol
But she had the name before he got the scar, no?
