The original Matrix made the Wachowskis some of the most famous writer-directors across our entire simulation. With 2015's Jupiter Ascending they tried to recapture the essence of the Matrix through a very similar storytelling method -- worldbuilding. The movie starred very in-demand actors like Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum and packed pretty amazing visuals as well, but ultimately ended up becoming yet another box office flop that lost around a 100 million dollars. In today's Anatomy of a Failure, let's compare Jupiter Ascending to The Matrix to see where the differences are and why Jupiter Ascending failed where The Matrix succeeded -- here's how to fail at worldbuilding. Hopefully Matrix 4 works out though.

Jupiter Ascending (2015)
Mila Kunis stars as Jupiter Jones, an everyday girl in the future whose life takes an unexpected turn when an ex-soldier (Channing Tatum) comes looking for her in hopes that she can live up to her destiny as the savior of the universe. Andy and Lana Wachowski once again dip their feet into sci-fi territory with this sprawling Warner Bros. epic.

The Matrix (1999)
What if virtual reality wasn't just for fun, but was being used to imprison you? That's the dilemma that faces mild-mannered computer jockey Thomas Anderson (Keanu Reeves) in The Matrix. It's the year 1999, and Anderson (hacker alias: Neo) everything wrong with jupiter ascending honest trailer jupiter ascending watch full movie online free jupiter ascending 4k clip hd the matrix fight scene neo vs smith agent smith matrix 4 keanu reeves box office flop lone ranger john carter blade runner 2049 works in a cubicle, manning a computer and doing a little hacking on the side. It's through this latter activity that Thomas makes the acquaintance of Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne), who has some interesting news for Mr. Anderson -- none of what's going on around him is real. The year is actually closer to 2199, and it seems Thomas, like most people, is a victim of The Matrix, a massive artificial intelligence system that has tapped into people's minds and created the illusion of a real world, while using their brains and bodies for energy, tossing them away like spent batteries when they're through. Morpheus, however, is convinced Neo is "The One" who can crack open The Matrix and bring his people to both physical and psychological freedom. The Matrix is the second feature film from the sibling writer/director team of Andy Wachowski and Larry Wachowski, who made an impressive debut with the stylish erotic crime thriller Bound.

War of the Worlds (2005)
An ordinary man has to protect his children against alien invaders in this science fiction thriller, freely adapted from the classic story by H.G. Wells. Ray Ferrier (Tom Cruise) is a dockworker living in New Jersey, divorced from his first wife Mary Ann (Miranda Otto) and estranged from his two children Rachel and Robbie (Dakota Fanning and Justin Chatwin), of whom he has custody on weekends. On one such visitation, looking after the kids becomes a little more difficult when, after a series of strange lighting storms hit his neighborhood, Ray discovers that a fleet of death-ray robotic spaceships have emerged nearby, part of the first wave of an all-out alien invasion of the Earth. Transporting his children from New York to Boston in an attempt to find safety at Mary Ann's parents' house, Ray must learn to become the protector and provider he never was in marriage. Also starring Tim Robbins, War of the Worlds was directed by Steven Spielberg, who had been planning the project for years, but set it aside until a wave of "alien invasion" films (led by Independence Day) had run its course.

But even that part was done poorly. There was no lead up to them suddenly being in love. No longing looks, no almost kissing, no reasons why they were attracted to each other (except that she's always liked dogs.... ICK!). Just suddenly in the middle of the movie they were in love, for literally no reason. It did nothing to push the storyline, it made absolutely no sense.

@eddiedingle767 3 года назад
@GroB Hahn to be fair, was The Matrix always intended to be a trilogy? Joel Silver, the mega producer at Warner Brothers, took a big risk on The Matrix, especially after a lot of the initial casting decisions fell through. Who's to say he didn't go to the Wachowskis and tell them, "Yeah, you're going to make more sequels. Why? Because I gave you a fuck ton of money to make your movie. People loved it, so you're going to make me more money." And if you know anything about Joel Silver, well... In case you don't, here's an example of a story about him. He was dating a girl in 1980s. She wanted to be an actress and he, with the clout he had, could make that happen. He told her that she shouldn't worry, and he had the perfect part for her in his next Blockbuster feature. And to his credit, she did get a part in his next movie, Die Hard. No, she's not John McCain's wife. You remember that scene when Hans Gruber's team infiltrates the building, and there's that brief brief scene when the topless woman runs out of the office when she's caught getting fucked? Yeah, that was the girlfriend If I'm wrong, and it was always intended to be a trilogy, Joe is still a coke head cunt, and the Wachowskis still wrote Bound and Assassins. Bound is fantastic, and Assassins is dumb fun

The problem is people thinking of Jupiter as the protagonist. In this particular story, she is the McGuffin. The protagonist (Kain) has to protect her from the antagonists (the space royals) The problem comes from the writers choosing to use her as the point of view character, which is somewhat necessary as Jupiter represents the audience; she is clueless about this world she has stumbled into and Kain's explanations to Jupiter are exposition for the audience so Jupiter and the audience learn about the world at the same time. I would imagine they would have given her character a lot more agency had they been able to make sequels.

Imagine if after the Beeeeees scene Jup started to realize she could actually influence living beings and slowly started experimenting and becoming better at controlling even people, but maybe only after interacting in close proximity. She could have become a character that could get out of sticky situations on her own, using only her cunning, and she could have had a taste of what real power felt like, almost falling to the dark side of control and debating with herself or others if what she was capable of doing was right. This could have also justified the ending where she prefers to stick to a job (at least part time) that grounds her in reality and in the life of normal people. What we got is princess Peach, always in a new castle while Mario hurries to save her. (I realize that those powers would be really similar to Code Geass, but the difference in the story is enough to make it original. Also, no fan of Code Geass would scoff at the possibility of seeing that kind of plot in a well done block buster)

You could have even added in some sort of mental conditioning to the CT character and having Jupiter around could have somehow fixed that or reversed that, give him more personal stakes in the movie rather directly tying back into the who of Jupiter but the what, as in what she can do, not just have her fall in love or whatever simply because the plot demands it or because she's special. As a story beat it is fine but it didn't really help the movie. I roll my eyes at these "save Earth" centric movies when apparently there's a whole lot more going on beyond our own planet.

The issue of not following or understanding about them is how the Wachowskis can't help but try so HARD to make their dialogue "deep" that it ends up becoming and pretentious, confusing mess where characters use complex words so blatantly and with no restraint that it becomes impossible for a normal person to understand what they are talking about. This was also a problem in The Matrix but for what it's worth it had an interesting world and concept, great action scenes and a main character, while not spectacular, did do cool and important things while having agency to his character that Jupiter Jones just does, not, HAVE!

@SampoPaalanen
@SampoPaalanen 3 года назад
In many ways those are worst kind of failures, the ones that had potential to be great but wasted that potential. I'd say the central love story isn't the issue here so much as the main focus character (indeed the one the film is named after) being essentially a prop for the other characters and also unclear and vague motivations for the villains. Granted I've not seen the movie myself but everything I've read/heard is that Jupiter isn't really actively involved in her story so much as simply taken where the story needs her to be, either physically or emotionally. If you made the focus character more of an active part of the story it would help a lot, for example have save herself from the villains at some point.

The Fifth Element is a pretty good comparison between these two flicks. There's a lot of similarities that be drawn between these two movies. Strange technologies, planets under threat, action, a world much larger than we know, other inhabited worlds, villainous aliens, benevolent aliens, strong male escorts to a female protagonist who proves pivotal in saving the Earth/Universe. Heck, even the actresses are both named Mila/Milla and are of Ukrainian descent. The huge difference between Jupiter and Leeloo is that Jupiter was barely a character and more like a Mcguffin and never underwent any kind of development, where as Leeloo was a character whose development and progression could be witnessed throughout the film. From learning how to communicate, to forming bonds with other characters, to realizing the importance of love and how it could be used to triumph over evil.

It feels like the Wachowski's did what Disney perfeceted with it's movies: take all the elements of a previous successful movie, change the sequence and alter them just that little bit and hey presto, we have a new movie.

For a ling time, I didn't believe they stole nearly all the concept to make The Matrix. After seeing their subsequent failures at every level, I changed my opinion.

@@Clockwork0nions You asked, so I'm just sharing what my individual understanding is. The Matrix and The Terminator franchises are both based on a single treatment by Sophia Stewart. There are a lot of reports that say she won a huge settlement after a copyright lawsuit. Other sources say it's just an Internet rumor/hoax. When I look at everything James Cameron has done, I can see his style. He is a competent filmmaker in his own right. When I look at everything the Wachowski's have done, the ONLY thing that is solid is The Matrix. If these ideas were stolen, it would explain the inconsistencies of the Wachowskis. On the other hand, Soderbergh, Tarantino, Nolan, Aronofsky, Ritchie, Shyamalan have consistent styles and consistent reception according to the way they applied their respective styles to their films. All of this is to say the Wachowskis didn't have much to do with putting their stamp on The Matrix. When they do leave their mark on a film, everyone is left scratching their heads (in a bad way). Filmmakers always have a Magnum Opus, but they only have 1 thing that stands so far and above the rest of their work. Even if they stole the concept, they learned NOTHING from the experience of directing a landmark film. It's all disappointing and baffling really.

@BAMGM
@BAMGM 3 года назад
Rogelio Bacanto oh, he definitely didn’t get _everything_ handed to him. Over the course of the series, he has trouble studying, he isn’t nearly as popular as one would expect from his celebrity status, especially in later books, and ultimately he has to go through a lot of trials, trauma, and failures, and has to overcome it all to earn his happy ending by *acting* rather than being carried around, with a good balance of his personal qualities and help from his friends allowing him to succeed. However, a lot of stuff in the early books, including his family fortune, the Headmaster’s attention, the very fact that most of the family abuse problems are mitigated by being sent to the most special school ever, and many events during the early school years, can be attributed to two factors completely outside of Harry’s control: who he is by birth, and Voldemort’s obsessive desire to murder him.

raksh9 as his legal guardians, he still has to come back to them every summer break. Every book usually starts at the Dursley household, with Harry or someone else from the magical world causing a commotion that leaves the household in disarray, so I guess that might sound like comeuppance to some people. To name a few examples, one of their important guests has a cake dropped on her head (I don’t remember if that was in the book or movie only), Uncle Vernon’s sister gets inflated and flies away like a balloon, one of the walls in their house is destroyed after someone gets stuck inside it using fireplace portal magic, or Harry and Dudley narrowly escape an encounter with demonic creatures best described as “despair incarnate”. All of these are from different books. Eventually, they do disappear from the story and are never seen again, but that’s probably better for their own safety.
