Anybody else expecting them to fsck it up?

[–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 21 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Yes, most definitely. Though, they did a pretty good job the first time around, up until the 4th one.

Also, you can say fuck on the internet. Nobody cares

Maybe it was autocorrect, and they’re a Linux user: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fsck

The 4th one was the second best, in my opinion. I haven't seen 5 though, but from what I can tell it wasn't very well-received.

They should have made every movie standalone, 2 and 3 had too many moments where I felt they were just dragging things out to justify a cliffhanger and a sequel.

I'm starting to think the point of most of these reboots is to fuck up the memory of the original

You can't really find the original "Old Boy" anymore. You have to watch the American remake that misses the point of most of it
