Screens

A place to talk about movies, TV and videos on Farcaster.

Tried watching the new Matrix movie on a flight, couldnt get 10 minutes in. 

The awkward dialog between the main characters trying to set up the plot was unbearable cringe. What happened to subtle world building?

This was a movie about how they didn’t want to make it

databases, open source, community, remote.

is there a better Matrix, than the original? (i haven't seen one after, so am looking for recommendations)

Every additional Matrix movie has been an order of magnitude worse than the previous one.

Apparently not even Wachowski’s, nor primary cast wanted to make it, so the studio said “we’ll make it with or without you”, and I guess the screenplay was decided to be a “fuck-you” to the studio because it’s just comically bad.

Watched new Gladiator 2, the same, absolute cringe and nonsense

made the mistake of watching it in the cinema when it came out and the only good thing about it was seeing the flashback scenes from the 1st on the big screen again
