    I predicted the movie was gonna be trash from the moment I saw the trailer. The first one was half decent, can’t expect anything actually revolutionary coming out of Hollywood but even without that, it was a complete story that didn’t need continuity, but these dumbasses can’t help themselves in creating nothing but remakes and sequels cause they have no creativity whatsoever.

      They have creativity, there’s hundreds of starving screenwriters and directors hanging around LA right now that would love to get a shot at making their movie (now whether they have the skills to actually make a full movie is a different thing). Hollywood keeps rehashing remakes and sequels because it’s safe and makes a ton of money.

      I knew it’s done for as soon as they said it’s going to be a musical, first one was masterpiece for a comic book movie, it actually had good social analysis in terms of showing what unfortunately happens to some people irl who have certain mental issues and are sometimes pushed to far. We literally didn’t get a great DC movie since The Dark Knight, they finally do it and then blow it up immediately by deciding to make the sequel. Should have been one and done.

        Even narratively speaking there just wasn’t anything else left to tell. It was a good standalone movie but capitalism ruins everything. Probably just best to pretend it doesn’t exist lmao.
