you're asking for more exposition than the first movie provided
part 1 was an absolute disaster of a film that I still can't really believe came out in the way it did, not sure if I'll even bother watching part 2 but people say it's somehow worse than the first is making me want to see exactly how bad it can get
the fact that we don't even have the final version of part 1 out yet is also just absolutely hilarious

I was watching a review and they said that..
Lol
The princess is clearly based off of Princess Peach, she wears a pink dress with white gloves and is stuck inside the bad guy's base at the end
Lol
Someone above mentioned they have slow mo farming let's goooooooo
Snyder should just go for it and have someone milking a cow in slow motion.
Yeah, the first one didn't seem to do too great. It was sandwiched between Leave the World Behind and an action movie starring Kevin Hart called Lift, and both of those did quite a bit better than it. This one seems to have considerably less hype behind it. So, it's viewership numbers aren't going to be pretty. And it doesn't help that Snyder kneecapped both of these movies by announcing before either of them that the "SnyderCut" is coming out after the release of these.
This isn't going to have enough of an impact to leave any scars.
He knows how to ask good cinematographers to point the camera in the right direction and get good shot compositions.
I watched Part 1 out of morbid curiosity and it was surprisingly boring; it did not even entertain me in a bad way. I'm not sure I can bring myself to watch Part 2 since it sounds like it's even worse.
I wouldn't even go that far. I really think that his earlier career was entirely him having talented people cover for him as he took the credit. As he started to believe his own hype and shedded the talent to do things himself, the movies have consistently gotten worse.
He's Tommy Tallarico but A) People are still giving him money for some reason, and B) He actually believes his hype and isn't scared to keep putting his "art" out there lest people discover he has no clothes.
‘Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver’ Review: The Second Half of Zack Snyder’s Sci-Fi Debacle Is Almost as Disastrous as the First
Any hope for the second part of Snyder's Netflix epic has been dead since December, but it's still shocking just how lifeless this movie feels.

lol the intro is just Anthony Hopkins spouting any old shit. It's just incomprehensible nonesense 😂
I made the point badly, but that's what I was getting at. Most of his early films have some nice visuals (300, Watchmen, MoS etc) but the moment he becomes Director of Cinematography from AotD onwards his stuff starts to look like shit, especially with that awful shallow depth of field effect.
I saw someone mention this on twitter and thought the person was joking omg‘Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver’ Review: The Second Half of Zack Snyder’s Sci-Fi Debacle Is Almost as Disastrous as the First

Wait I know why he did this. Seven Samurai also had a stopping point where the samurai chill out in town and the movie uses this time to develop characters and stakes and get you pumped up.‘Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver’ Review: The Second Half of Zack Snyder’s Sci-Fi Debacle Is Almost as Disastrous as the First

If Snyder took this idea and then misfired on execution in just copying aesthetics as he often does I can see why this would occur
Not sure about that, he did decide to use a broken camera for Army of the Dead and tried to pass it off as a creative statement.
Should have named it Rebel Moon Part 2: Farming Sim.
Like youve built a team of warriors… to farm. Now I don't even know who these people are tbh because the films have not created a good reason to. I simply don't give a shit about them to care. Or why the fuck the baddies care about a single farm in a vast universe.
and why does the whole film just seem likes it's in slow mo on top of the actual slow mo.
This could actual beat out the first in how bad it is. Which is something.

It pisses me off he changed his concensus on the movie. I should have screenshot it. Even he knew how idiotic he sounded.
UPDATE:: I was half right. It was actually his Dune 2 review where he went hard on it while praising Rebel Moon.
I knew I wasn't crazy.
Is that actually a serious quote? Seriously serious?
i know right. i kinda want to watch part 2, but i'd way rather watch the extended editions of 1 and 2 than rewatch this trash twice. but how long will the extended editions take to come out, and will they come out relatively close or months apart...
this is what dumpster diving must feel like
If you're going to pick through discarded pizza boxes, you definitely want the ones with all the toppings (the full director's cut, one might say) stuck to the box roof not just the cheese, it's true.
Just finished watching it and I don't know wtf that was. It was like action set pieces and slo mo shots the movie, the loosest definition of a story, no idea wtf is going on just a bunch of cobbled together action sequences and explosions. It's like a kid smashing toys together in a playset and then saying now turn that into a $100M movie.
After this piece of crap, I'll be shocked if a major studio gives Snyder a big budget again to blow away with his hackneyed bullshit.
Like there has to be a limit to failing upwards but then again this is Hollywood...

I didn't think the movie was that bad exactly, but IMHO:
- the first chunk of the movie (an hour or so?) is... "skippable". All the flashbacks etc. are... surprisingly short, predictable and utterly pointless.
- nothing develops in interesting manner. There is no clever plot, storyline or twist. Nothing surprised me about the characters... it's just entirely predictable "stuff" until the entirely predictable showdown.
- the strong accents really didn't help, most notably the lead character's.
- by far the worst action scene is the one they used in the trailer, the rest of the combat scenes seemed 'fine' to me.
But I can't think of anything in the movie that I'll remember tomorrow. The 'epic moments'... just weren't very memorable for me.

To the surprise of no one… that was bad. And dare I say it… somehow… SOMEHOW worse than Part 1. There is nothing of worth here. The empire (or whoever the fuck they are) are just useless and there's no aura of fear or to be scared of them. They get there asses handed to them by farmers and women and children. The admiral is a joke that exudes delusions of grandeur in every sense. There's no foreboding sense from him. None of the characters have anything that stands out and make them memorable or likeable. You simply don't care about these people. It's unspectacular. There's like, what, 2 main locations in the whole film? The farm and the battleship. And some pointless flashbacks.
Yeah, I checked out once
Holy shit, and they have the audacity to try and set up a THIRD movie? Jesus Christ.
badass swordswoman died to four normal ass dudes after taking on a giant fucking spider in the first movie all by herself. How fucking lame.

Wait, does it actually end on a tease for a third film?
Will they be able to defeat the guy they defeated in the first two movies?
