    This movie is going to bomb. A sequel is definitely not happening.

    The script is okay, at best. Unless they fixed major issues with it then I can't imagine it scoring over 65% on RT. That will alienate anybody on the edge of seeing it. Based on the script, this definitely is not a movie that people are going to leave and tell all of their friends that they need to see.

    Combine that with it being an IP that isn't a household name and you're probably not pulling in many new people. This movie has a $165million budget and I think they'd probably need to make at least $400 million to get the greenlight on a sequel. And I really don't see that happening considering A Quiet Place 2, Cruella, and Black Widow haven't even made that much.

    The sequel is really relying on Zendaya and Timothee pulling in a younger audience.

    I must not hype. Hype is the mind-killer. Hype is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my hype. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the hype has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    I think it looks great but if ya'll think this is going to do better than Black Widow or A Quiet Place 2...I don't know what to tell you.

    I can discuss the script and its potential as a film if you'd like. It's a fucking boring disaster - and that's coming from a person who wanted Blade Runner 2049 to include the scene of Jared Leto talking for 30 minutes straight. The side quest plots that have absolutely nothing to do with the main story aren't only out of place, but they are boring.

    You love to see it. What a great film.
