Can we talk about this movie?
Why is it so weird? It's a direct sequel yet the writing, directing, and tone is like night and day compared to 11.

What's the beast Oceans movie?
the all women one
That was kind of the point. You don't get probably the hottest cast of the century together just to remake the first one.
No I'm talking about 11 (2001) and 12 (2005)
Wasn't the original screenplay supposed to be something else but they ended up retrofitting it into an Ocean's movie?
It was based of a completely different story and was modified to work in with the current story.
Imagine being Steven Soderbergh and peers like Kevin Smith and Alex Proyas are more famous than you. It must really hurt.
>The story of this film was taken from "Honor Among Thieves", a screenplay treatment written by George Nolfi that was originally intended to be a John Woo vehicle. When it was decided that Ocean's Eleven (2001) was going to have a sequel, Warner Bros. asked Nolfi to rewrite the script, adjusting it for the Ocean's Eleven characters.
absolute kino scene
these are below average movies that get a pass because it's with a bunch of cool kids. Half the characters don't even matter and are just filler and the best actor is Casey "man, chester's by the sea" Bestfleck
This is some Cloverfield shit.
It happens more often than you'd think. I'm pretty sure every Die Hard sequel was some unrelated original screenplay that got John McClane shoved in. Same for most of the Hellraisers.
Guess I don't know much about movies. This is just one of the few examples of sequels that feel so alien.
It's true though. 13 felt more like a sequel than 12 did. It's odd.
Watching the 11's for the first time is quite an experience.
The 12's is more of a comedy, there were moments where my sides were completely gone.
The 13 is really a payoff, from the techno Claire de Lune, to the ending and Reuben making it, it's so good, I love them all.
Doesnt this movie have that retarded scene where Julia Roberts character looks like Julia Roberts so they try to disguise her to steal some stupid diamond in Italy or some shit?
Soderbergh stuck his head up his ass and thought his shit was great
Die Hard With A Vengeance was literally the same scenario as ocean's 12
yes
This is the worst oceans movie by a mile. The whole movie is pointless, from the antique heist to the egg. They stole the egg at the very beginning of the movie in a very boring, generic way and then spent the entire rest of the movie bullshitting you, the viewer. The more times I see the scene where they talk nonsense (if Halloween and thanksgiving yadda yadda), a scene the first time I saw thought was hilarious but now find borderline insulting, I believe it perfectly encapsulates the entire movie: it doesn't make sense because it doesn't have to make sense. After all, the joke is on you, the viewer.

Loved this movie
The fuck are you even saying? You named two dudes with careers in the toilet and Soderbergh, who just directed Logan Lucky. That movies awesome btw.
>Oceans Seven Eleven
this movie is closer to oceans eleven than either of the sequels.
