Comment on What’s your favorite “flop” of all time?
Ilandar@lemm.ee 1 week agoI thought that film was at its best when it was essentially mocking the franchise in a very meta way. When it tried to get serious it just fell flat, the story was uninteresting and the action scenes (particularly the choreography) were so much worse than the older films.

I’m now at risk of becoming a Wachowski-explainer but I think actions scenes being this bad was either intentional or intentionally neglected. It got dumb at times because it expected you to suspend disbelief and all of us have trouble with that these days. 20 years of unserious media full of quips, 4th wall breaking and so on killed the child like wonder in many people.

Possibly, I’m not invested enough in their films or the franchise to notice that stuff though. I guess that makes me part of the joke!
