      Arthur Chu Retweeted Ana Mardoll

      This really applies to almost every movie that gets sequels because good "first movies" were usually written as standalone movies that tell a complete story and to make it into a franchise you have to mess up something about the original resolutionhttps://twitter.com/AnaMardoll/status/1337391888605835266 …

      Arthur Chu added,

      Ana Mardoll @AnaMardoll
      Y'all like QTs with controversial opinions, so: QT with the name of a sequel/prequel that, regardless of standalone quality, profoundly misunderstood or mangled the themes present in movie(s) preceding it in the franchise.

      I mean, Rocky is obviously an example, right? Does that need to be said? It was plain as day that the original movie was about the idea that Rocky actually become champion was impossible, but for him to get as close as he did was how he finally earned self-respect

          And the original implied ending of the movie was that he goes back to his ordinary working-class life with Adrian but with this memory of the one day he went the distance against the champ nothing can defeat him anymore

          And it's just like c'mon guys Rocky 2 rips the poignancy away from that with its fucking literalism Sure why don't we revisit every bittersweet ending and give it a nice thick honey glaze Have a Casablanca 2 where Rick kills Hitler

          Stallone is a magnet for these, because the only series I can think of that misses the point even harder is RAMBO

          which is about how the united states used and discarded its soldiers, how they came back unable to function except as killers. the theme is especially pronounced with the original ending, where troutman kills rambo.

          I always liked to think of Rocky 2-through-whatever as Rocky Balboa's middle-age/elderly fantasies. "Ah, but what if, man?"
