Quote from: Manti on Jul 22, 2022, 09:52:36 PMFunny enough, the one thing that gets me a bit "itchy" is the fact that a number of those twitter reviewers are calling it better than the original and "the best movie in the franchise by far".
It always reeks of momentary hype and sensationalism to me, when someone drops such a comparison with an old classic. Like, how do you want to really push the new movie? Just say its better in any way than the previous gold standart.
Dont know if i managed to really express what im feeling here. Im definitely very hyped, dont take me wrong.
I'm 100% in your camp on that. I try to remember that the people who say these things PROBABLY don't hold the first one as high as we might. There are people who hold terminator over T2, I think they're bonkers, but there's JUST SO MUCH that goes into everyone's reasons of how much and why they like a film. There are people who like predator 2 more, why? It just has some element that's special to them over all else that the first had, like non-stop action vs suspense, more predator screen time, yada yada yada, you get it, everyone gets it, i'm just grinding metal now.
