So, this movie cost $320 million to make and it's going straight to Netflix?

Wow. Having watched the trailer, it just seems so unoriginal, like it's made up of parts of other movies. Post-apocalypse, friendly robots, a road trip, an eccentric older man, the inevitable action sequences... If someone told me ChatGPT came up with the plot I would believe them.

I genuinely thought you were joking or exaggerating but it ACTUALLY cost 320 million dollars to produce?

There's no fucking way. I smell a money laundering scheme.

It was originally set up at Universal for a theatrical release, but I've heard they balked at the budget.
