This film took almost 40 years to get into production. 40 years. I can only imagine in all that time the changes that went into the script, setting, even the cast that were required to bring Francis Ford Coppola's, director of legendary movies such as The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, self described "magnum opus" to fruition. The crippling disappointment, the anxiety inducing uncertainty, the passionless movies he had to slave through in order to make his masterpiece come to life; the sleepless nights wondering if he would ever see what he believed to be his finest creation manifested, and the indescribable joy he must've felt when he finally shot the last scene of the movie that took half a life-span to bring together. Now after decades of waiting patiently, having 9/11 delay production for years, making studio friendly movies to pay off debts, selling his own family's winery to fund the production for this movie, it gets compared to The Rick and Morty Anime. That is fucking hilarious to me.

The Seven Deadly Sins of 2024 Cinema: 1. Pride - Megalopolis Thought it was an epic masterpiece; turned out to be a $200 million vanity project. 2. Greed - Rebel Moon Part 2 Zack Snyder’s quest for more explosions, more slow-mo, and more runtime. 3. Wrath - Joker 2: No Fondue Gotham’s Clown Prince is angry, but so are we for sitting through this trash 4. Sloth - Madame Web Lazy. From the directing, to the acting, to the CGI, outright lazy. 5. Envy - Borderlands Wanted to be the next big video game adaptation but ended up envying The Super Mario Bros. movie’s success. 6. Gluttony - Tarot Just plain slop 7. Lust - Imaginary A film that tried to sell itself with cute concepts, but left us with nothing to desire.

"Coppola adopted an experimental style that permitted improvisation during the shoot by letting actors write scenes and making his own spontaneous changes to the script. These methods proved divisive, leading to the resignation of the art department and visual effects team, among others, and raising comparisons to Coppola's history of challenging productions."

I personally worked on the miniatures for this movie and I still didn’t get anything that was happening on set… Coppola has put his own money and time to make this movie after the script got rejected over and over again by studios since 77’ (WITH REASON OF COURSE). It was lovely to bring back old practical effects for this movie but it all derailed when it was produced on a digital camera rather than film. It truly made the practical effects look CHEAP. I think we never got called back and the film went all CGI/Green screen after the whole Virgin “dilemma” since budget was getting tight. That’s what usually happens when you bloat your cast with high billing actors not willing to take a cut :/ Ultimately the film was trying too much ideas without having a solid storyline and style for cast and crew to commit themselves to. All these small storylines that seem like they are going somewhere but then end a minute later shows Coppola was wrestling with himself for years on how to end the story lmao. Honestly, this would have been a good bad tv series to tune into every week! I hope Charlie was able to get a screening with “live audience participation”…just a guy who walks into your theater playing a reporter talking to Adam Driver for 2 MINUTES. No audience participation at all. I saw the movie for free but still felt like I needed a refund for my time omg…

[@Feedsyourminds]

Thank you for your insight. As a practical effects lover and someone who has spent time working on various sets and is a camera operator this is so sad to hear. Are you saying that your practical models got removed in place of vfx? If so I wonder how far into the process this decision was made as it would be another reason as to why the vfx looked so shit, which ALWAYS comes down to deadlines. I hope that you came away from it with at least some money in the bank and portfolio pieces. It's sad to see your craft undervalued in modern cinema because practical still has such a strong place in cinema.

[@alexiz0013]

WOW, smh... 🤦🏽‍♀️ I'm sorry your work got wasted on this. Thanks for the insider info!!

[@latayantheazran]

As a writer, it drives me crazy how good they could've made this if they just did another draft of the script. Very often my stories are just as crappy as this one on the first draft, because there Im just throwing the ideas to the page to see what works and what doesnt. It normally takes me three drafts to actually turn a mix of random ideas into something worth reading/watching, and on Megalopois it seems they just kept a first draft as it was.

If it took Coppola over 40 years to make the "first draft" who the hell has time to wait around for the second? 😜

There’s no “they” in this case. It’s just “him”. Coppola had 100% full creative control over this, and it’s obvious that he’s got too much of an ego to have hired a co-writer to help him out

[@latayantheazran]

@@Marksman3434 Ok that makes even more sense. I'm always at my best when writing on a team, so we can tell each other that our ideas arent working. Theres only so many angles a single person can consider, with more people you can also draw on many different types of experience, and since everyone has to be on the same page, its a lot easier to write something that others can undestand. Single writers have the risk of making the conections in their mind and forgetting they need to explain them to the audience

[@tpslowbie]

you know the film is bad when charlie doesn't even wait for his hair to dry

[@kman9884]

I can tell you why it cost 100 mil. Heavy CGI focus. It’s not that CGI itself is expensive to produce, it’s that all the production houses are completely booked and in high demand, so they can charge exorbitant prices. If more mainstream movies went towards practical effects it would offset the demand for cgi, drive down the price, and make movies more profitable. But, that would require producers taking time to develop these movies, and they’re not about that.

[@alexiz0013]

What saddens me is that Coppola couldn't find any studio or entrepreneurs to finance the film. He had to wait over a decade and use his own money he made in the wine business, over 120 million dollars, to make the film. So far I think it's earned 12 million? Having a vision and believing in yourself can have catastrophic results.
