Agreed, they're letting him find his footing, he's working better for me too
Nah, he'll leave her for someone 15 years younger whose star is on the rise
The Ash Clan are a rough people because they live in a rough environment. But they can't/don't leave because there is something special there that can't/don't want to survive without. The bad humans learn of this and want it. Maybe they already tried, which is what caused the Ash Clan and their territory to be the way they are now. Jake is initially hated but naturally becomes New Alpha. One of his children falls in love with an Ash Clan, and a child dies, while another achieves a milestone on the way to adulthood. There is more mystery about Sigourney 2.0
Respectfully I disagree, though I see your point
The original movie is my all-time favorite movie. But one of the critiques was that it wasn't scientifically accurate as to how the dinosaurs would actually be. The dinosaurs in Dominion having feathers was more realistic.
As such, saying that the dinosaur clones are actually mutants, due to scientific mis-steps in-story, allows them to work better in the story and explain away any inaccuracies, and allows for the writers to improve and make more accurate, like the feathers
This is a post where I think age is relevant.
I'm 39, so I missed the chance to see this on initial theatrical release. So in my case, I'd say it's just one of those cultural memory things. It's so seeped into culture that we all just know. Kind of like Romeo and Juliet. Whether they've actually read it or not, anyone who's so much as heard of Shakespeare knows how that ends.
If you're young enough to have seen it initially, or lucky enough to somehow have gone in blind but old enough to remember, I'd say it's in the story beats. You see enough movies, you can just tell where it's going. The constant mentions of his dad, and the blanks of the past not being satisfactorily filled in.
Well and not to mention the way it just reads. It makes it sound like Ryan and Taylor exist to do her bidding. As well as admitting she'd have trouble standing on her own without them. Which is fair. She's not a terrible actor and I'm not trying to dis her, but I don't see an Oscar in her future. Her appeal was her looks first. She's smart enough to realize this, which is why she wants to branch out into other areas, like her beverage line and wanting to be a producer. And I can't blame her for wanting to hit producer status, but she went about it all wrong
There's three seasons if they keep each one around 6 episodes instead of trying to stretch it out, but HBO prefers condensed seasons anyway
He'll appear as a vision to his long-lost daughter, encouraging her to embrace her dark side
I love all of his movies so far, and plan to continue to see them all theatrically, and anticipate enjoying them.
But I wish he'd surprise us again with a completely original story again like The Witch. Everything since then, (again, while great and so I'm not really complaining as much as it sounds like I am), has been based on an already existing story. For that, and being his debut, The Witch remains my favorite of his, and the one I still find most horrifying. Though Nosferatu will be a different experience once I can watch it at home
Also, look at it objectively from Patrick Dempsey's POV. By just name-dropping him in 5, that's sort of like committing him without asking him, and painting him into a corner, which I know I wouldn't appreciate on principle, even if I did like the project. He is busy enough. Like, let's have a discussion first
