I wanted to watch Furiosa and Megalopolis in theaters, but I lost track of time with life stuff. I finally got to watch Furiosa last week cause it’s on Netflix, and I’m bummed I didn’t see it on a big screen with big sound. It’s such a fun batshit movie, and you can tell Chris Hemsworth is having a blast playing Dementus.
Conversely, the movie making the highest profit was Inside Out 2 with $650 million.
I still need to see Megalopolis. I’ve heard a pretty even split on it being confusing trash as well as being the best film ever made.
It comes across as so damn pretentious, and I don’t mind artsy fartsy movies. Bad writing, mediocre acting (although I think a lot had to do with direction) and add in some awful cgi, and it was one of the worst movies I’ve seen in a long time.
Most of what people thought was CGI was a combination of practical effects + projection.
This is not CGI:
I’m losing it… “2024? Shouldn’t they wait until the year is ov… oh… oh…”
That said, Megalopolis was robbed. It likely won’t really be understood for a decade.
