this is such a great movie, it was like a found jewel when i watched it to the first time it came to hbo, it gets a yearly rewatch. tilda swinton’s gabriel literally one of the coolest movie character portrayals i’d ever seen in my life. keanu, weiss, leboeff, rosdale, honsou, stormare jfc this move was packed. like i said, this is on my repeat list. such a great flick.

I really got into the television series as well, but sadly that was cancelled after just one small season, as I’m sure you’re aware.

I hope they have a role for Stormare, he killed it in the first one.

Oh FFS Akiva Goldsman and JJ Abrams? Well glad we all enjoyed the first one because the sequel is going to SUCK.

Fuck off Akiva Goldsman. How many IPs can he shit on? I Am Legend, I, Robot, Batman and Robin, Picard, The Dark Tower…

Maybe this will be the first time we get a conclusion. Or, wait, even better! It can lead into Constantine 3!

JJ guarantees a mystery box (or boxes) being introduced and not answered. A third movie might not answer anything, but JJ sure makes the questions.
