Something to consider: because of the nature of the Major, the studio is absolutely not bound to having Scarlett return to the role and any sequel could still be 100% in continuity with the first movie.

I think her approach was accurate to the Major that was written for this movie. It was the script choices that were made to have a Major who is not confident or familiar with her cybernetic body.
I don’t think that the writer even realized there was any sort of debate on the issue. The movie was uniquely placed to actually have a some sort of discussion about it that almost no other film can and it simply didn’t. Huge missed opportunity.
My main complaint is that they should have taken it and run with it. It’s like there’s a 300 lb gorilla in the room, and the only thing we get is, “hey, does someone smell gorilla?” when they were uniquely situated to actually engage that gorilla in a unique way that almost no other setting can do right now.
The vast majority of it concerns the pacing, the lack of narrative and character development, over-reliance upon scenery, and a few other issue that have absolutely nothing to do with the casting controversy.
You’re best off watching Stand Alone Complex. It’s the best adaptation of the original materal—I’d even go so far as to say it improves on the original material.
I’m in the same camp, I like this movie better than the ‘95 movie.
The soundtrack was not distinctive, which was what I was hoping for.
What’s the problem here? This beautiful piece of engineering isn’t meant for filthy NASCAR. Turning left is for peons.
Nintendo also said there’s no widespread replacement program but... you know... if you want... you can send back that left one and they’ll replace it.
Am I living in some alternate reality? The green in Skittles is lime.
Or, if you know peanut allergies aren’t a concern, throw together regular M&Ms, Skittles, and Reese’s Pieces.
I have been the asshole who threw a packet of regular M&Ms, Skittles, and Reese’s Pieces into a bowl and set it on the table at game night.
“People looking at this think I’m some kind of explicit ethno-nationalist, but I’m not,”
And it feels like biting down on a knife if it gets to your mouth.
Seems to me like both sides could have mined this for content gold rather than going straight to whiny bitchfest.
Ghost Recon Jesus Was Way Cool.
Prior to the ACA my monthly premium would have been able to pay for one low end, but current iPhone.
Way more satisfying (and safer) is to just take your foot off the gas.
