REBEL MOON - LIKE SEVEN SAMURAI BUT TRASH

The fact that his two good movies involved directly translating comic book stories and their visuals (sometimes scene for scene) to the big screen is no coincidence. He has a very specific skill set and telling stories ain’t it. He’s a visual interpreter, not a storyteller.

[@CopaExMachina]

If the narrative is storyboarded out for Snyder, and all he has to do is paint by number, he's good to go.

[@fallous]

Zack Snyder is a cargo cult film maker. He has no understanding of why scenes he likes in other movies have emotion and weight, instead thinking that if he just recreates them visually then he shall also convey those emotions and narrative weight. He is the short-bus riding rooster convinced that crowing causes the sun to rise every morning.

The stick-to-itiveness' of every sci fi movie of the last ten years starring mary sues defeating an army of accommodating stuntmen is really something to behold. No matter how many people complain about it, even women, and no matter how many of these movies bomb, every movie just insists on it. It is like they cannot help themselves. Star Wars, Marvel, this, just every movie is we need to have a female lead who can defeat every thing with no effort, even if she has zero superpowers or reason to be this good..because um, that is just the way it is now! The barn scene where that 130 pound woman soaking wet just strong woman's her way through like ten guys is where I knew this movie would be awful and turned it off like 20 minutes later.

There’s nothing tactical about her behavior. Every single fight scene she is just open and exposed in the middle of a group of opponents. That’s the quickest way to be worm food. The world building is atrocious and infantile and so the plot that follows makes no sense whatsoever. A big world killing battleship takes Darth Vader to a family farm? WTF? He uses the giant dog bone of tyranny and leaves a small contingent of soldiers forgetting to turn off their ‘autorape’ switches. She then proceeds to drive the Algerian space bus to pick up Tonto, the Wicked Eitch from the Far East, and Uncle Remus to fight space Vader. Because they’re running out of resources? Yet build this massive fleet of incredibly advanced ships that couldn’t get resources from empty planets? This makes Dave Filoni‘s stories look positively Shakespearean.

Of course it is...because Zack Snyder himself pitched the idea to George Lucas. The movie was turned down because Lucasfilm was in the process of being purchased by Disney. So yes, he's had this movie on his mind for awhile. He even pitched it as a Star Wars movie, but not associated to the already known Star Wars storyline. Just kind of a one off movie. That's probably how Disney got the idea to promote Solo, Rogue One, and shows like Mandalorian, Andor, Obi-Wan, etc etc.

I mean the budget thing is kind of impressive. For 166 mill he did both parts which if we assume they both have director's cuts is 8 hours of footage. Most hollywood blockbusters for that amount of money can barely squeeze out half a movie. Dial of Destiny would be 45 minutes long if the budget was 166 million. And color grading aside, Snyder movies look better than your average MCU schlock. Did he really cheap out on catering or has a genius accountant, or slow-motion helps out not only with running time but also the budget, more movies should learn a thing or two about getting more bang from your buck from Snyder.

I thought Rebel Moon was thoroughly mediocre. I don't think it was dogshit, but I'd have a hard time believing a studio would green light the project with someone else at the helm. Not with that budget. My main problem with it was that it had no characterization and the plot was a cannibalization of Star Wars. It's one thing when Disney releases a Star Wars movie that "rhymes" with another movie, but it's quite another when some other movie does it. It looks to me like Snyder got lazy, and when his Star Wars script was rejected, he made the minimum changes he had to make to avoid being sued before he gave it to Netflix.

[@dewulfe9913]

Really good review, have a sub. I'd just add how illogical the initial premise is - a highly advanced, space-faring enemy needs to....raid a primitive village...for grain. That just doesn't fly.

[@paulchin4094]

The strong prey on the weak is nothing new.

[@CopaExMachina]

@@paulchin4094 True, but that still doesn't help this premise expecting a village of 100+ people who can barely feed themselves be expected to feed a ship of 5000+

[@CopaExMachina]

Extremely illogical indeed. 100+ can barely feed themselves are now expected to feed 5000+? LOL Thank you for the sub.

[@paulchin4094]

@@CopaExMachina Perhaps you need to be reminded them that some fantasy or sci-fi, intentionally play with logic and reality. It's the director's goal might not be strict adherence to logic, but rather creating a specific atmosphere or exploring themes in a fantastical way. Suspension of disbelief: I'm sure you understand this the concept. Every movie requires some level of this, even realistic dramas. Directors have creative freedom and make artistic choices to achieve their vision. Sometimes, logic might be sacrificed for artistic expression, symbolism, or emotional impact.

The director is overrated. Fight scenes are terrible.

True. Also true.

There is so much wrong with the film it was weird to focus on women weak girls cant fight lol.

That is the moment Rebel Moon hinged from mediocrity to atrocious.

[@stevenalexander403]

Wow

[@CopaExMachina]

Yeah

[@freakshow1890]

I have to be honest, im not a huge Snyder fan...I like sonme and dislike others. But I have to say I enjoyed Rebel Moon. Is it thr greatest movie ever?? NO BUT it was entertaining and fun. I think so many people on the internet have breen swayed by the overwhelming negativity about this movie and the hate for Snyder. I think people are SHEEP and easily swayed. I would bet that more then half the people bashing this movie havent even seen it. I prefer to make my judgement by actually watching something. Too many trolls and people who just want attention and likes on their channel just spew negativity to gain popularity. NO TALENT IN TROLLING!!!

[@CopaExMachina]

I blame Zack Snyder for the overwhelming negativity Rebel Moon is getting.

This movie is bad but I have no clue how it even remotely reminds anyone of seven samurai

[@CopaExMachina]

The basic (and I do mean basic in the strictest definition) plot to Seven Samurai is here. Village hires warrior to protect them from a stronger force.

By calling this movie dumb you have insulted an entire planet full of regular dumb people. Shame.

Yeah but in my defense they don't know when they are insulted 😂

Jesus people’s reaction to this Film is so negative and an overreaction. The movie Is just ok. Not Great. Not terrible. I’ve certainlySeen worst movies just this past Week. That rotten tomatoes gave better reviews.

[@CopaExMachina]

What was the most enjoyable moment for you in Rebel Moon?

[@jsun58]

@@CopaExMachinaoverall enjoyable. Gritty, loved the music, action, costumes. I want to learn more about Jimmy …I should also point out that in 7 samurai NONE of the characters have any backstory. They just get collected to fight. In RM I can guarantee you that all the characters will have a backstory revealed. Everyone is judging this film with one eye open. Ok so let’s say they add a bunch of backstory in part 1, then the complaint will be the film isn’t progressing enough. Or only 2 characters will be collected because so much time was spent in backstory exposition. You just can’t win

Snyder's best movie is Dawn of the Dead

Come on now, let's at least try and be honest with each other

[@remyd8767]

@@CopaExMachina I love Dawn of the Dead. It's probably my favorite standard issue zombie movie of all time. Let me rephrase. It's my favorite Snyder movie.

[@StephenRansom47]

#SnyderCut … 🤦 AGAIN! … again 🥱 The trailer loop is how I feel about this director … like filming zero G scenes in Apollo 13, bad luck for my stomach, I guess. Perhaps it’s his plan- to make us sick. This way we’ll buy his Cut Rich Contracted Side Hustle. 🤮 🤑🤢

because IT IS a 7 Samurai but a failed clone

On top of that it is quite possibly the worst clone of Seven Samurai
