      I don't to spoil but so far this film falls into each every single modern writing pitfall, particularly when it comes to the fan film / established lore instinct.... GOOD GRANOLA.

      Did we watch the same movie? I thought it was extremely functional, economical, and indulgent (but in an earned way!). I'm trying hard to figure how we had such polar opposite reactions 😯

      Economical? It takes an hour to get to where the first film got in 10 minutes. It's hell bent on prequelitis - no actual conflicts, just positioning characters to eventually hit the beats of their starting points as "end catharsis." The illusion of arc. A tournamentless tourney

      Who cares what the first movie did? This is a different movie! If this movie wasn't interested in having a tournament, then I'm not either. Instead it gave me something like the Avengers; interpersonal conflicts that escalate until a catharsis

      I'm not saying it has to say the same movie, I'm saying that's a movie that showed economy and this movie is disturbingly lacking in it. And the interpersonal conflicts are all STALLING until we get to the endpoint the audience already knows. That's not cathrsis. That's...

      Man, it feels weird to disagree so hard with you. I'd be curious to see you deep dive into what exactly you didn't find functional cause I still don't see it. For example, (and not to belabor it) I feel like what you just described is literally criticism I've seen of The Avengers

      The Avengers actually understands conflict tho, and also that's about interpersonal dynamics of making TEAMWORK and the TEAM coming together. The "arcana" stuff here is basically "wait til i finally can do the thing that makes me look how i was in the game" and none of those

      realizations are built on actual psychology or character change, just the moment where the movie is finally allowing it to happen cuz someone else is in danger and they gotta try real hard. It's night and day.

          Night and day - maybe I have Johnny Cage's $300 sunglasses on because I still don't see it. I'll def keep trying to understand it, though
