We get it guys, you didn’t go to the theater because you haven’t left your basement in 4 years. You don’t have to keep commenting that.
My basement has an amazing home theater setup, complete with wet bar, popcorn machine, and a really nice recliner/couch set.
Why would I pay $20 to sit in some ratty, smelly, flop house of a theater when I can queue this movie up in a few months for free and watch it in the lap of luxury?
I just don’t believe an actress who can’t even act out eating a cheese burger like it wasn’t beneath her could act like a post apocalyptic hard ass.
Also, this thumbnail makes me think this prequel is really just the origin story of her buzz cut.
I didn’t really have a problem with Anya Taylor-Joy in the Queen’s Gambit. What makes you think she can’t act?
I didn’t have a huge problem with Queen’s gambit. I was not convinced that her character in The Menu was actually a working class person, though.
She strikes me as the kind of Actress who has a brand, and that brand has nothing to do with her acting skills.
To clarify, I mean she seems like her brand involves “don’t eat that cheeseburger too much like a poor person”, or she will spoil her image.
One of the theaters I used to go to is now a massive Amazon warehouse.
I’m ok with that—in practice and principle.
Wait… theaters still exist? They were expensive before food prices doubled. How much are they charging for a bag of popcorn now? Do they accept bills less than $100?
Is it all self-service now? Are we now expected to push <play> on the movie computer AND clean the theater before we’re allowed to leave? Are you forced to watch ads while you clean up?
Ever since Jiffy Pop hit $50 at the self-service Dollar General, I barely leave home anymore.
Furiosa is 5 years too late. People who cared about her, stopped caring about the character years ago. They give us enough of her backstory in Fury Road. For viewers to know her history. If the viewer stops to connect the dots. So making this movie pointless.
Your right, the new fans who were attracted to the franchise grew up and forgot about in that time. Why the Hell did it take 10 years to get another mad max(ish) movie out… its insane that it took that long.

I mean, COVID set a bunch of films back, just for starters. After that, Idk. WB has been making some disastrous executive decisions since they merged with Discovery. I’m a bit amazed Barbie was released, rather than getting torched for the tax credit. Could be they sacked their marketing department and told an AI to do the job, and now its just gone underpromoted.
