Wish JP wasn't a bad guy


I don't know about anyone else but does anyone kinda dislike the fact that JP ended up being a *beep* in the end, especially after that scene where he lets out his heart to Alex, that should've been a moment of clarity for him for the rest of the film to change and hopefully change his reputation among the employees at Brainasium

Yes, I agree. They needed a villain and they used the closest thing they had. Lazy writing, just like naming Dante's character "Dante". The film is about the LoLs, though. So I wouldn't think too much about any plot points.

Naming Peter Dante "Dante" wasn't lazy. It's not like someone was sitting on a couch going "Ughhhh, oh man, I'm so lazy right now, instead of coming up with a random name, we'll name him "Dante"". That was just a silly shout out.

Are you not entertained?!

Listen to the commentary on the DVD. It was admitted to have been lazy writing.

I agree. I would have liked it better if you found out he acted that way because he never had friends growing up and was a defense mechanism. I used to do the Melady, and would love clothes from the matrix.
