        What’s unique with Fast & Furious franchise is that they combine practical effects and extensive CGi at the same time, and it’s glorious when you watch them in theaters. lol

      Literally the DC Extended Universe: with its final 2 movies The Flash and Aquaman 2 releasing this year, and yesterday’s announcement of the new Superman (David Corenswet) and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) for a reboot

        Not to mention that they lied to us by saying Toy Story 3 is the end (and it concluded well). Then they did a fourth one tapos may Lightyear pa.

        Tbf, New Mutants was watchable… mostly because of Anya Taylor-Joy’s performance there as Magik. Other than that, meh. Buti na lang nakuha na ng MCU rights ulit sa X-Men.

      In Hollywood? Everything and anything will be remade and continued. Even a flop will eventually return. I don’t doubt the dark universe (with Tom cruise and Russell Crowe) will be revisited after a few years.

      • Jurassic Park (or World). Man, Dominion was a turd. The opening scene was a cringe and the whole felt like I was watching four movies in one.
      • Terminator. It’s pretty much dead after Salvation. T3 was fine, ironically this was my first Terminator film I watched.
      • MCU
      • Star Wars
