    Glad to hear Fall Guy might be good. The leads alone had me interested.

    Wasn't this book shit? I purposely stayed away from it to prevent the original story from being tainted.

    Even the first book/movie's story line isn't great if you look at it too hard

    the first book is just 80's pop culture porn...in book form it was great nostalgia for GenX readers, understood why Spielberg changed what he did.

    I liked both the book and the movie a lot. Zero reason to look too hard at that type of story. You really wanna know what's in the fast food item you love so much?

    Pretty solid trailer, too. But yes, the leads alone make this seem like one of the better upcoming options.

    I didn't like his second book, Armada, so I too, stayed away from Ready Player Two.

    Twigs is dope im not worried about that. The first one isn’t peak cinema or anything but its kick ass aesthetically pleasing ride.

    Haven't seen the original, but that doesn't look great imo. Invincible John Wick trying to save a tormented ghost lover doesn't really do it for me, I guess.

    It’s kind of the original John Wick in a way. It’s not about saving anything or at least shouldn’t be

    Ah I assumed that the "something so bad happens that the soul cannot rest" meant he was about to go questing to save his dead lovers soul.

    slightly nervous about getting another one of his movies so soon, but I bet Poor Things was done filming long ago.
