When you recaped the found footage. It was meant for the sequel on what the government got from the recording. The sequel was supposed to be chronicle: martyr. Which takes place 2 years after the 1st movie (of course). So, Matt is a hero but yet people see him different. We meet our antagonist jack and Mariana(I think). Mariana stole footage from the government that had the recording from Andrews camera and so on. And well they built some Ironman suit to face Matt if he’d ever gone rough. Gosh, and well his life is so weird. He’s pretty much homeless, grew out his hair. Never graduated high school, can’t see his parents anymore. And well he does but it’s rare and all. And man I really hoped that the sequel was made. You can Read the whole script in one search. If you need the link I got you. Gosh but great review.
After making the video, I looked into the making of the sequel and how the director did his best to sink it but I didn’t look into the synopsis. There’s some interesting things from this for sure but I kinda like this being a one off story. Thanks for posting this and teaching me a little more and thanks for the nice comment!
Chronicle is an incredible movie! I saw the movie twice in the theatre back in the day and I've seen it many times on dvd, Josh Trank did a great job making you feel sympathy for andrew and how the three main characters react to their new abilities is very realistic and believable and just how it goes from them having fun with their powers and then things spiralling out of control with andrew!
In the original script for Chronicle 2: Martyr it wouldve been explained that all the footage was collected by the government, and they tried to hide what happened. The main antagonist happened to hack the CIA’s servers and put all the footage together and released it as a movie called Chronicle, to expose what happened. It would probably sound better if I gave full detail, but id basically just be explaining the whole movie.
If you’re sad and didnt want a chronicle two because Steve and Andrew won’t be in it then you gotta read the pitch for chronicle 2 I know there isn’t gonna be another movie but still
@@Knight121198 nahh I’ve been waiting onna 2 for years I need it it kud like start off wit like kids frm the highschool being interviewed abt wat they really knew abt them 3 Nd they’re reactions or sum shii
Let me know what I should review next! Still going with the daily uploads! Tommorow is the last day but it's also the longest single video I've done so I'm excited for y'all to see it.
The guy talking about the philosophy and psychology stuff had an impact on how the bad dude (I forgot their names) and how it made him believe his views to the extreme
Great review. I'm going through watching all of your other videos now. I'm glad i found such a small channel with such a great perspective. Your format is long so maybe get deep with it? I feel like you didn't delve into the philosophy of this story.... I can't hold a strait face anymore))
Yeah I feel like I'm still trying to balance both aspects of the reviews I do but hopefully, I think I've gotten better with the newer reviews at doing both.
I like to think someone like the CIA cannonically Compiled the Footage together, the Reason the Footage from before the Cave and in the cave is there is because the camera luckily survived and was Excavated with the Dead Crystaline creature. The footage at the end from the camera in Tibet was found almost by luck, whoever found it only knew to search for Matt in Tibet cause of Andrew's near throwaway line in earlier footage. Whoever is covering these events up likeley wants to capture and study Matt, likeley to weaponize his abilities. In the real world the CIA actually ran a study called "Project Stargate" in the 1970s and 80s in which they studied telekinetics, telepaths, ESP, and astral projection also known as remote viewing. Hard to think Landis and Trank didn't have this in mind when making this film
Steve had to Die first because he truly was Andrew's best friend and one of the Only things keeping Andrew on a good path. The Deaths of Steve and Andrew's mother are what truly broke him and sent him on his Rampage
This movie spawned my obsession with real power. Telekinetic energy must be possible. The manipulation of gravity is the manipulation of the most powerful force in the universe
There was a sequel planned but the director didn’t like where it was going and stopped progress. Personally, I think it’s done that this was a one and done because I don’t really think there’s too much more that could be added to make a sequel interesting
@@PRsGrabBag I suppose you right, but I feel like a lot more could have been explained, like if they got their powers from the crystal then surely it could have happened before, and they could not the last ones to have powers. And how did Steve die? If Mathew struck him by lightning, how come there was no lightning recorded? And he had technisis powers, not controlling the weather?
Yeah maybe a sort of prequel could have been interesting but I don't see how a sequel with new people getting powers would really be all that different than the original. And for Steve's death, Andrew wasn't really controlling the weather, I think its more that he was losing control of his powers and that was affecting the weather.
@@-Marvel_JC- somewhere I read that their powers allowed them to control electromagnetic waves and energy which entails telekinesis but also more. Not weather manipulation but probably can influence lightning. Just watched it again last night and didnt notice the sweat floating off steves face towards the chrystal when they got their powers
This is literally a super underrated phenomenal movie it sucks that the sequel theyre working on is gonna be an all female lead set 10 yrs after the first movie it shouldve just been a direct sequel
I dislike matt too, not my favorite character obviously. I think him not showing any Sympathy for his cuz andrew is really dissatisfying and very disappointing as Andrew needed him the most. Hell Matt didn't even cry during Steve's Funeral, wtf is up with that? Talk about Having that Sociopathic energy. Yikes 😔
...Review?... More like a recap... I never watched the entire movie so I decided to download it, While waiting for it to complete I figure I watch what I thought was a review instead I got the entire movie... With commentary... Thanks!
