well it wasn’t like bad? it wasn’t really my genre

i was more interested during the mystery bits and less during the high school bits. not surprised i mean i dont think im the target audience

‘mitsuha, get out of there before the comet strikes’

‘what about the other 500 people who die in this event?’

‘what about them?’

[fancyfade]

this movie’s so fucking weird mitsuha (female protag, high school aged) set up taki (male protag, high school age) on a date with one of his coworkers while she was in his body?

[fancyfade]

at least the arts pretty

[fancyfade]

most of this epilogue (except for vic listening to the recording his dad left him) feels pretty unnecessary though

[fancyfade]

On a more d3pressing note, Victor is definitely volunteering to plug into the unknown alien technology not just to save the world but also because he just watched his dad die in from of him (his mom already died earlier) and now has no one

At least aquaman recognised that cyborg is not in the headspace for this decision to be entirely fair to him (Victor) at the moment

[fancyfade]

Watching the four hour cut of justice eague cuz I can't sleep while feeling this sick

Anyway

The fact that darkseid got pwned his first invasion of earth makes sending Stephen wolf the second time kind of hilarious

"yeah, darkseid would come himself but last time he was here he got his ass kicked by amazons, atlanteans, humans, old gods, and a rogue green lantern and now the giant baby is too a scared to show his face here and sends his uncle to do his dirty work"

[fancyfade]

Aquaman, fighting flying parademobs by jumping on them in air and parademon surfing: you know, falling is really just like flying without control if you think about it ;)

Teams flyers: no

[fancyfade]

I know it's because they need cyborg and flash to destroy the unity and presumably wonder woman and aquaman to fight steppenwolfs, but it's hilarious that the squishiest member of the team (batman) is on para demon army distraction duty

[fancyfade]

Cyborg: I want to plug into the unity, fuse with it

Wonder woman: no you don't know what were going in to

Cyborg: um excuse me? I thought not having a plan was your thing, "let's raise superman from the dead with this alien tech we don't know what is or how works"

[fancyfade]

No bearded supes?

I thought post res superman always had a beard.

Though I will say poor superman. Imagine like just getting brought back to life and then "hi so uhhhhh steppenwolfs definitely on his way and the earth might get destroyed please help fight"

Before you even get your morning coffee

[fancyfade]

You figure the justice league would ask silas for help mother boxing supernan back to life since he's the only peron on earth who's successfully used one before. They don't even have to have him in the building if they're worried about collateral damage they could use a phone or camera

Granted Vic probably will have some stuff to help since he's a genius and his tech is made from the mother box. But you figure more help wouldn't hurt

[fancyfade]

I will say I'm always kind of bored of the "superman is hands down the most powerful member of the league" interpreatation

Like one of the most powerful ? Probably. But I don't care for acting like he's on a whole other tier from the other heavy hitters

[fancyfade]

Unable to beat wonder woman and aquaman in a fight, steppenwolfs has resorted to negging

anyway finished the movie w/ my dad

i tried to politely duck out when my cat got off my legs, there were like 30 mins left so i was “oh im in pain in my chair im gonna go 2 bed” and then dad was like “ok i’ll pause it we can finish it later” and i was like “no you finish it without me don’t worry” “No i don’t mind” anyway

so i just sat in his chair (less painy) and bit the bullet and finished the movie cuz idk.

so basics: it was extremely underwhelming. i have no idea why it got talked about so much. my guess is entirely on nostalgia factor, given how my dad was like “oh panam, they aren’t around anymore” or “oh that’s so-and-so” or “oh (insert history trivia)”

but without nostalgia factor the thing is just like ... listening to a loud fart in a quiet auditorium. thats my review of the movie

also like did bruce lee murder quentin tarantino’s goldfish or something? it seems like tarantino had a huge problem with him for no reason.
