@hazardman89 So far, I haven't seen a single reasonable response to why it's a bad adaptation outside of superficial shit.
This is why no actually good filmmakers are willing to touch these franchises, because fans don't know how to act.
@Kaito_Cam@dstrangevisitor You're repeating yourself.
The courier was called by the scientist we first meet, to keep his mistake quiet from the higher ups. It's entirely a story about human error mixed with corporate greed dooming us all.
Again... These questions are answered in the movie.
@JinksWasntTaken BOTH Sonic Adventure 1 AND 2 have a thick layer of jank to it that NO 3D Mario game has. Period.
Movement feels better. Level design feels better. Controls feel better. There isn't a thing Mario 64 doesn't do 1000% better than EVERY 3D Sonic game. Period.
@Kaito_Cam@dstrangevisitor Like bro said, it wasn't an emergency yet. It's clear the 1st scientist we meet is who called for the courier. It's implied he's the one who destroyed the first vial of the cure. He likely wanted keep such a mistake quiet. Hence the call
These questions are answered in the movie
@Dikkussu@DeanGagaKennedy Actual human beings in real life fight or flight situations are reacting like Bryan 9 times outta 10. You can pretend the average person is competent enough to not panic and stumble, but portraying this particular character that way just isn't honest.
@Dikkussu@DeanGagaKennedy A macguffin quite *literally* gives a story structure. It's the sole reason it exists as a storytelling device in the first place. You saying there's zero plot structure is not just flagrantly wrong... it's ignorant of the fundamentals of storytelling as a whole.
@DrPacD@keldane_@Trioxinghoul85 The ending of this film featured 20 uninterrupted minutes of a teenage girl getting raped by some guy on camera.
I mean, ARE YOU SURE this is the hill you wanna die on, you fuckin weirdo?
@Dikkussu@DeanGagaKennedy 4. Idk how you can seriously say the film has "zero plot structure", when the film itself is entirely plot driven, surrounding a macguffin.
5. "Lore breaking mutations" ain't a criticism of the film. It's you pitching a pathetic bitchfit cuz Leon/Claire/Chris/Jill ain't in it.
@Dikkussu@DeanGagaKennedy 1. I don't think it's drawn out at all. In fact, there strongest element of the film is its pacing.
2. I don't think I'd categorize the film as "predictable", but that's subjective.
3. I think placing the film in the viewpoint of an untrained everyman is compelling, actually.
