minus-squareJordan LundlinkfedilinkEnglish11•1 year agoI put this up as another comment: No spoilers, for me it felt like it was cutting bits and pieces from the original films and remixing them. “Oh, this is just like that bit from Raiders where Marian gets kidnapped… Oh, hey, that’s like when the tank ground up against the wall…” There’s entirely too much of “Well if you liked that, you’ll probably like this…” moments. Which isn’t always bad, but it doesn’t generate new memories so much as throw back to the others.
