The Divergent Series: Allegiant Pitch Meeting

[@kurojngyuki]

It says a lot that even WITH Ryan's paraphrasing, even WITH Screenwriter and Producer guy's discussion, that I still have no idea what this series is trying to say, or even what this movie's plot is. I'm just here to enjoy the Pitch Meeting with no idea what this movie was even meant to be...

[@pyroavok]

"Plot? Theme? The fuck are those? Just sell tickets to dumbass teenagers and make me some money!"

It’s one of those movies based off a book that did have an actual plot and meaning but then they threw it out the window to make something entirely different
