These are some very clever sentiments, pal. You echoed everything I've been saying about this clusterfuckery for the past five years. Yes, you're right, the twist doesn't work because: it's cheap. It doesn't have any point in the story other than to reference some pseudo-socio-political underline. ...Which gets undercut because of how comedic and lowbrow the execution is. And, most importantly, the promise of the main villain was more interesting than the actual villain we got.
You didn't actually say the 4 things that would've made the twist better. You only said what was wrong. I was expecting you to mentions 4 ideas you would have done to make it better.
Well thanks for watching and commenting but yes I did say 4 ways to make it work. 1. make the real villain interesting. 2. Don't go jokey on the fake terrorist idea. 3. Save the reveal for the end. 4. Make the twist interesting/related to the plot. I never said I had a new story to pitch, I said I had ways to make the make the story they did work. Yes that is going to deal a lot with what didn't work. If the mistake with the film was they went 'left' my idea would be "go right." Overly simply? Maybe, but a whole film studio missed it. My follow up video actually suggest some new story ideas.
