Wonderful article, great read. Two main reasons I personally never liked this movie:

This jacket kinda rocks though

And Brian De Palma

I think he and James Cameron are battling for the title of the movie director with the most stylish shirts.

TFA was a clumsy,  heavy-handed stab at nostalgia, TLJ was a clumsy,  heavy-handed stab at subversion.

Meh! I remember this being announced as Wan’s take on or homage to the giallo genre. I can’t see that at all. But maybe for the better, he is not necessarily the guy I want to see tackle one of my favorite subgenres.

I hate how they sucked out the anarchy of the toons,  the very feature tat let them stand apart from the Disney ones.

This movie looks ugly and has no memorable action whatsoever.

who else thought his ship’s gonna be called “Left Behind” from now on?

Is “steaming service” an honest typo,  an intended pun or a Freudian slip?

Not trying to stick out with a “contrarian” (ugh) hot take here, but what a mediocre movie this is. Often boring, always heavy handed and as we can expect from Whedon, filled with cringy corny one liners and the look of a TV movie. Loki is an unexciting villain and while the Hulk is admittedly a highlight, Whedons…

The real good pun was done already,  I am not above picking up the scraps.

Adrian Broody?

Bill Pullman is alive. You must have confused him with Dick Laurent.

oh boy,  I didn't get this silly quote right

I am a little bit of a Frankenstein myself)

Harsh,  lol

Can't they give sharks a rest for once?

Their choice for the theme song is pretty daringly unusual and exciting

Did someone say Stan Lee already?
