I think Jupiter Ascending had some real potential and nice visuals, certainly better than just about every superhero movie nowadays.

ok

Sure, great visuals. Shame about the characters, acting, and plot.

Potential for what?

What was the budget for this thing again? Why do people keep giving those two money?

The world was interesting. The effects were great. The characters had potential.

The acting was incredibly shitty.

At least Sean Bean lived this time.

Yeah, it was so good that the Wachowski's are never going to get a budget like that again.

Visuals are nice and all, but when you have two terrible actors as the leads(just because they are attractive by hollywoods standards) and try and force them to show emotions like love, you get a bad movie.

Not to mention the overcomplicated plot and multiple characters that don't stand out from eachother.

This movie was absolute trash, and even the Wachowski's knew they were never going to get that kind of budget again. These guys are a 'one and done' kind of talent. Matrix was their one hit wonder, and they even ruined their own badass movie by making 2 bad sequels. They should stop before they embarrass themselves further

Being a great movie

You don't see the same potential in, say, xmen apocalypse

Potential for quip gold.
>did you change my clothes while I was unconscious?
>I wasn't wearing this before
>Did you change my clothes?

Did the Hackowskis manage to scientifically demonstrate that women aren't funny by mutilating their genitals? Or were the two of them never funny to begin with?

It had its chance and failed...much like you in life

Bound is great. But yeah, everything they've made after The Matrix has been dogshit, it's wierd.

>Not to mention the overcomplicated plot

>dead space queen gets reincarnated
>her existence alone entitles her to a huge chunk of a space empire
>everyone wants her dead so the status quo of the empire isn't upset
>merc sent to capture/kill her instead falls in love and helps her claim her empire

How was that complicated?

The characters and most of the acting/dialogue was awful. The things the queen and the bounty hunter said was so bad.

Casting was garbage too.

Redman was the only guy in the movie that "got it" and acted accordingly

Tantrum should have acted more like a dumb blockhead . It could have worked in the movie . Sorta like Flash Gordon in the 80s Kino

(Also the movie was too dark. Make it more bright and stream line the plot and it would Have been good )

I loved his silly murmuring

>certainly better than just about every superhero movie nowadays

Good one, faggot.

It was appropriately campy

They're soulless cashcows

Because the whole Matrix saga was soulful and genre ground breaking?

op didn't say anything about matrix saga being better than capeshit

No it was trash after #1

Yeah. Stupid Disney paying off critics to give it bad reviews. It's a masterpiece.

DAE favourite part of the movie when the girl fall down and space wolf boy caught her?

>DAE

Hey.

HEY

Stop it.

>Twilight with an alien.

I was alright (aside from lol janitor) until the plot looped twice.

>marry me, not him he is evil
>okay
>ka-blash! bam! channing tato here to save you!
>okay you're safe now so marry me, not my evil bro

Mila kunis is a bad actor and her character is kinda boring and that ruins it for me

Well, he brought up cashcows.
And, I couldn't imagine anyone doing something so ridiculous as implying Jupiter Ascending having soul to it.

Why is he smelling her head?

It was cool, but the whole thing with the protagonist being some random janitor who turns out to be heir to a space empire was lame. Doubly so when she decided she preferred being a janitor and went back to her shitty old life at the end.

Correction, she was a maid.
A janitor will need some electrical and plumbing training to fully flesh out their maintenance capabilities.

She washed toilets, for rich people, while not being too ethnic to the point that the rich person is leery of her being around their possessions. So she probably hypothetically made more than the average janitor without any training.

Could just as well been a story about an escort being the heir of a galactic empire. Which might have been a lot more interesting and explain why people kept undressing her and dressing her while she was asleep.

the premise of a reincarnated noblewoman of the galaxy is interesting

they really fucked up just about everything else

if it wasn't so fucking goofy, the trilogy could have been

1 jupiter ascending: low class woman discovers she is a reincarnated galactic noblewoman, thwarts plot to deprive her of control over dozens of inhabited planets, discovers the galactic economy's foundation is slavery/harvesting of humans unaware of galactic society

2: kunis liberates the planets she owns, depriving galactic society of harvesting them, informs them of galactic society, galactic forces/aegis attempt to arrest her/seize what they call her property, other rebel forces introduced to story, galactic society/aegis seize earth

3: revolution flick where the good guys beat the bad guys
