Questionable Questing

At least in MCU Ruffalo can disappear in the background and have a giant CGI monster take his place when needed, but here he was the main villain. The one you were supposed to be scared off when he talked about killing of the MC. The one who supposedly has a cult of fanboys that he uses to control the ship, and yet here he slurred his words so much I couldn't understand him half the time.

And yes Patterson was the newest Batman. He also did twilight funny enough. But he's the attractive lead in a drama or dark noir, not the retarded nobody your supposed to feel bad for. It's like everytime he got bullied in the movie for being disposable and not being a real person, I laughed because everytime he lost his shirt you can see Patterson's six pack and a jawline that can cut glass.

Sorry i'm ranting about this. It was just so bad. lol. At least with Megapolis it was so bad it was funny. This was just sad.

Patterson did one of my favorite versions of Bruce Wayne by showing how much of a broken weirdo he'd be

Megapollis I don't know of except memes its bad.

I'm not even going to attempt to explain Megapolis since I doubt the writer had a clue what the fuck he was schizo baballing about. All you need to know is the the main villain and MC recited lines from Hamlet at each other in this slam Poetry session in the first ten minutes of the film.

Clip now

And you read my Andal and First men thoughts?

You think I'm bullshitting? This was in the first ten minutes with zero explanations for anything anyone is talking about.

I did read the andal thoughts, and I really like the idea of the pursuit of perfection or beauty. It ties in with knightly traditions and the idea of becoming something bigger than yourself. Of becoming a legend. How everyone's doesn't just want to be pretty, they want to be the prettiest you can possibly be. They want to push their magic and potions as far and as hard as they can or die trying.

It also neatly ties in with the Southern obsession with material status and need for luxury which neatly contrast with the North's more practical mindset and joy found in simple breeding. Not needing complicated parties, rituals, and girls covered in diamonds to be happy.

Both descend from the Queen's Way. The core principle of Lyanna's belief as it has spread in Westros is sex is good. Not it feels good or should be accepted. Sex is a positive reinforcing element to be pursued for its own sake. Why and how is the divide between the Andals and the First Men.

The North does like its bonefire nude dancing ceremonies but the covered in dimonds is a good one. They like flesh and sound raw

Where as the South will have honor duels over the ownership of silk Lingerie and dresses. Really play up how materialistic and greedy they are about sex.

Well, that's the thing. Religion wise, the North is far more materialistic, but maybe in a different way. Your saying it is in the clothing the Andals focus, while for the First Men and Woman it is about the tattoos and pregnancies and flesh. Always the moaning rutting howling flesh

The movie clip you showed me is both obtuse and yet awesome in parts. There are good ideas here with the civilization tree symbolism and other lines. Yet also, what the fuck is going on

Megapolis has some cool ideas and beautiful cinematography, its Francis Ford Coppola for God's sake, but none of it makes sense so I never got anything out of it. There's just so much symbolism that never get acknowledged or integrated in the story, a lot of the characters don't feel like people but rather spokespersons for their choices sin or virtue.

Sounds like too many ideas cooked together without a story with characters to drive it forward

Exactly. Apparently it's been marinating in the director's head for like forty years since he couldn't find a studio willing to finance it. So that might explain the pretty disjointed narrative.

That will do it. Going back to the Andals, under the Queen's Way its chivalric romantic parties. Sex is a way to improve one's harmony with a group
