The Worst Star Wars Ever! - Rebel Moon Part 2 

Zack lost everything with BvS

Zack needs to at least stop writing. I'd like to see a comparison with other directors who've dropped off. The Wachowskis come to mind.

if zack was making a movie with val kilmer in the 90s, his face would've been burnt by now

Thing is, Seven Samurais _in space_ has already been done too. Battle Beyond the Stars was one I saw on TV as a kid when it first came out many decades ago. It's campy as hell. It has a spaceship with boobs! And it's still better than this tripe.

Maybe he should move on to doing short films instead or get a writer to help him out. But I couldn’t care less if he decides to stop due to massively failing and losing all his money trying to make movies. I don’t have to watch his future films either if he keeps making them just so none of my money is spent on garbage.

It hurts to hear 😅👍

To me, the real sad part is that his sort couldn't act on their delusions of grandeur without literal armies of enablers on all rungs of society.

He and his cult fans are the most pretentious people on the planet.

Most Netflix movies look this bad....why? 🤔 Is it lighting? They all look like cheap tv shows

I think ZACK want overtop the room😂

Which itself is derivative of Seven Samurai, a way better film

@@ramert32 Bug's Life was still a good film on its own, though. Hopper made that film great.

I was just thinking this, especially with the presentation of the banner(s) by a child artist(s)

except insted of the villain being grasshoppers, its a human. "Give me your food or i get the insecticide."

And Hopper actually smart and have logical reason to keep bullying the ants

It was explained.

@@Flippokid Out of curiosity - what was the explanation?

​@@Flippokid The smart villagers were all sent to astronaut camp?

@@maelstrom2313 yeah but they still had floating platforms so even if they made them then taken away wouldn't there be someone who created something better before being taken away

@@Flippokid Was it space Amish? I bet it was space Amish.

Whats sad about that is the characters in a bugs life are supposed to look abit cartoony. Whats Snyders excuse

A Bug's Life has a ladybug undergoing an arc of accepting his femininity. Snyder wishes he can write arcs this good.

>Kills a literal child. >Refuses to kill the villain. >Kills a bunch of random soldiers on her way out. What did Zack mean by this?

@@DonVigaDeFierroprobably wanted to communicate ”I am actually inept and all my cred comes from nepotism“

Hopper, alone, elevated that film compared to this.

Battle Beyond the Stars told the EXACT same story better, AND actually had several good reasons that our heroes could win against the space nazis, in that the recruited warriors had a combination of technologies and tools that would give the town a fighting chance. (hand weapons, very fast trench building technology, each hero had their own unique fighting spaceship and unique scifi racial abilities)

@@sprinkle61 "They made that in a cave, with a literal box of scraps!" - Snyder in private.

😂😂😂 beat me to it, I just comment that 😊

Also when faced with extinction for not bringing in enough grain, surely you can use better tech just this once, right? He just doomed his people because he wouldn't accept help for just 1 harvest. Like you can go back to your old ways after you prevented your deaths!

Your little activist writer thought it sounded better in its head

Those villagers are really stupid and the movie should have end with them being wiped out.😂

@@KabodankiYou mean “progressive”?

Nah, it'll be fine. The interstellar, space national socialists are running their ships on coal. The eventual heat death of the universe will happen first.

They really do resemble space Soviets

oh, really?!

Yep, "space nazi" isn't what I thought when seeing those uniforms. Looked more like Space Soviets with their cold war era Soviet style uniforms. Although, if that was the case then the farmers would be shot and the rest sent to die in working in a gulag while the farm was collectivized (i.e. taken by the govt). Yeah, checks out.

I hear you have 2 piece of shit movies for me? Well yes sir, I do!

Same

This movie gave me an appreciation for Disney Star Wars. At least I like the character design. The space ships and battles sorta feel like Star Wars and look pretty good. Here the color palette and weird flat light just look awful. The slow motion is unbearable. Is it to pad the run time? There is so much the movie would be a third shorter without it. I made it maybe 10min. My mother turned it on when I was at her house. Luckily I was just about to leave anyway. Shit I just realized it was the first one. I guess it doesn’t make much difference.

Diddo

BBtS at least had a space battle in its Space Opera!

@@franohmsford7548 BBtS did this exact story and plot SO MUCH BETTER, I can only conclude that Zack Snyder has never seen BBtS, because if he had, he could have just stolen like all the elements from that much better B movie. Why not have the recruited heroes have enough small arms to equip the town ? Why not have the recruited heroes have tech that can just build defensive trenches quickly ? and of course, why not have spaceship VS spaceship, in your space opera ? This worked so much better in BBtS, because each hero had their own cool 'x-wing fighter' style spaceship, and they were all different sizes and had different weapon systems, so even if the space nazis had more ships, the hero ships were clearly better, and had a kind of 'diversity is our strength' thing going, where they could deux ex machina some cool shit to turn the tide, where here there is literally no way they should ever win, or even have a chance for a fair fight, since there is no reason for the bad guys to even land their forces near the town, since they don't even need the grain at all !

@@sprinkle61 Oh...I think he's seen it. He's the exact age and demographic to have seen it at the drive-in when it came out. Just like me. But richer. And more of a c@nt.

There was also a sci-fi interpretation of the story made in 2004 as a single season limited series anime called "Samurai 7." Also much better than Rebel Moon. Snyder capitalized on the idea of "What if it was Seven Samurai, but with too much slow motion and it was bad?" Jeez, I mean even Pocahontas/Dances with Wolves in Space "Avatar" was better than Rebel Moon.

​@@KekoaponoHonestly, what's with Hollywood filmmakers thinking that their expensive pet projects are high cinema?

Right but his movies would have been so much cheaper and yet still just as good. Man made films on a $50 budget. His fantastic 4 movie is genius.

I hope not. I'd prefer 2 'trilogies'. Aren't they all the rage ? 😁

No joke! Dawn of the Dead was written by James Gunn (lol), 300 and Watchmen are like near word for word/page for page adaptations of their respective graphic novels (Frank Miller and Alan Moore), even Man of Steel was written by Goyer and Nolan. The more creative control Snyder has the worse his movies have gotten.

Watch it. You won't be unhappy. You'll laugh more than you have in a long time.

​@@criticalcommenterI'm not sure I could look at the non-binary man-girl for more than 15 seconds without wanting to enucleate myself. 😵

No kidding. He turned on the fandom

Tax write offs. Maybe they all LOVE snorting rail after rail of blow togther.

Either that or it’s a front for international money laundering.

​@BizznessBox Bro Snyder is damn washed out its disgusting. He did the terrible "sit around the campfire and everyone give direct exposition about their background" shtick back in suicide squad and he got universally DOGGED for that movie. He has ZERO self awareness. Truly failing upward

Bruh, rebel moon is so bad it’s good. The slow mo farming had me rolling🤣🤣

Imagine if Tommy and Neil were in this or directed it 🤣 then it might be watchable

​@@williampoole1742You're tearing me apart, Scargiver!

Battlefield Earth was also a garbage movie that at least entertained us at a comical level…if you are talking about John Travolta playing evil space lord Jonathan Davis of Korn.

Battlefield Earth at least had the unintentional comedy going for it. It was so bad it was awesome.

I disagree. Those two films were hilarious. This is just dire.

@@bjornskivids yh atleast with battlefield earth you had overacting John Travolta keeping you entertained

@@rhyslightning3037 Good point

At least Jupiter Ascending had some ambition, Also, Mila Kunis, which is always a plus in my book.

I know that’s what I was thinking. But why bother with story when you have archetypes? There just as fleshed out, right?

No kidding. If “token” had a picture in the dictionary, he’d be the guy 😂

Who?

@@BiggieTrismegistus djimon honsou

This garbage is a trilogy??? Good Lord, what a train wreck

Its gonna be a hexology​@@crazyralph6386

What's the connection between communism and the people who founded and run Hollywood...

Hollywood has tons of Brett Whiteley movies?

Learn who founded and runs Hollywood. Then notice.

How dafuq they achieved space travel with coal? Unless the coal is actually Dark Matter.

Zac stole that idea from 1930s flash gordon. Very lame.

@@alienalchemist It's possible, it's just incredibly weight-inefficient.

@@alienalchemist According to Snyder, the big head thing that Korra put the explosives on, is a ''space god'' that the Empire enslaved and is powering the ship. ......and they feed it with coal. How does this shit even work?! I have no idea.... I'm not making this up btw. that's on the off. FanWiki site. ( Yes, there's a Rebel Moon FanWiki!)

It's space coal, much more caloric value than common one 😂

“It was never explained” well that certainly explains why both the movies are a load of shit

And wouldn't that nickname mean she's not a very good soldier, if so many of the people she fights survive to show off their scars?

@@paulgibbon5991 Why would that make her a bad soldier? You think a soldier is only successful if he/she kills every opponent he/she encounters? Maybe the scars she gave to her opponents were the scars of missing limbs. Or they are metaphorical scars, because she ends more relationships than Taylor Swift.

@@paulgibbon5991 In reality it is more useful tactically to wound enemy combatants and have the other side need to evacuate and hospitalize them rather than killing them. Better yet, if they are maimed and can never return to battle again. That's a huge drain on enemy resources. Having to support a cripple that's unfit for duty.

And then imagine having the audacity to be offended when that same audience goes “nah, we’ve got better things to do with our time”

A barista just pisses in a cup. The manager tells him to make 5 more. Or something like that

the style is old and stale, too. as the audience has grown, he's somehow regressed.

Not just style over substance, but basically no substance at all, and the styles are just a random mishmash of better things, a little Tarzan, a little Pride and Prejudice, a little a bugs life, a little Battle Beyond the Stars, a little nazis, a little Little house on the Prairie, even a little of the home scene from 300

There's no style. It's a crap attempt at recyling tacky imagery from 1970s and early 1980s "Adult" comics like Metal Hurlant and Epic Unlimited. Badly. Very badly.

As wide as the ocean, as deep as a puddle.

On a different note, here’s a hot take “Style over substance” almost perfectly describes Bladerunner 2049

Its amazing how most film makers today have taken the Michael Bay approach to film making….. and people think its good film making 🤦‍♂️

I disagree. I think the fact that they’re bombing shows that audience still demand good entertainment.

I'm amazed he is a middle aged man with a family 👍

Doesn’t that insult 16 year olds? A 5 year old more like.

The way you finished that gave me Sam Rockwell vibes in seven psychopaths. "No shoot outs?!?!? No shoot outs?!?!?"

Teach us. I've never heard of that.

@@Chilicharger665 Essentially, if something orbits too close to another body (as defined by their masses), it gets torn apart by gravity varying too much across its surface. That's probably how Saturn got its rings, and it'll also happen to Phobos and Triton (the moons of Mars and Neptune) in several million years.

thanks, I've just been knowledgenated.

@@Chilicharger665 Basically, a moon or large celestial body can't be that close to a planet, once it's within the planet's Roche Limit the gravitational tidal forces will break the moon up or pull it into the planet. Yes, I can see that a giant planet or series of moons looks cool floating in the sky in a sci-fi movie, but that's not how science works.

​@@stevew8513don't gas giants just absorb the other planet once the gravity starts to pull it in?

I really like the rhythm in the wiggy wiggy wild wild west song...but in saying that, it instantly turns in to here comes the men in black in my head. Just bounce with it!

I never liked it. Too campy and silly

The problem is that it was too goofy! Whilst not going all the way into Spoof territory. If Will and Kevin had calmed down a bit Wild Wild West could have been decent fun.

It was cheesy fun, at least. Kenneth Branagh, and his giant spider, saved it.

The politically incorrect banter between Will Smith & Kenneth Branagh was the highlight for me.

He was actually bullshitting an old man and a farm boy he guesses don't know any better, at least in the original script.

​@@eXpriestuntil they tried to justify it in the solo film. It was better when he was talking nonsense

@@crankfastle8138 Yes.

Except that makes no sense; what, he went 13 parsecs in 12 parsecs? How is there a shorter route in space? But, it sounded cool, and it was plot-relevant, so it's no big deal.

​@@billjacobs521 Well you're not wrong. But think of it in terms of a navigator bragging about his skills. And for Han's boasting to have any weight you have to assume that the Kessel Run poses several navigational challenges ie. it isn't just a straight shot. It's a great bit of dialogue because in a single line it really helps establish Han's character in the viewer's mind. Unfortunately the audience had no understanding of the Kessel Run so most people when they heard it for the first time assumed that the writer didn't know what a parsec is, because they assume Han is boasting about how fast he can go. So maybe the line, memorable as it is, is not quite so great after all. As we eventually learn -- though not in the the movie -- the Kessel Run is normally a 20 parsec hyperspace route. Hyperspace travel requires a navigator to plot the route. If Han did what he claimed then he would indeed be a good navigator.

You forgot about thermal vision periscope sights for the single big gun on a spaceship needing to be hand-cranked to maneuver the barrels lol

They need that organic, hand harvested, family owned grain for their famous spacenazi IPAs, which is the main export fueling their war economy.

@@mikestafford6900 Analog just feels better man. You would know if you were into guns at all man.

@@Six_Gorillion lol a spaceship has to defend itself against any point in a sphere and you say analog feels better. You should ask to join the writers on Rebel Moon 3. With your Napoleonic mastery of artillery, you'd be an invaluablel consultant. You know, to keep things real. Unless you're just cranking one out and I missed the sarcasm

​@@mikestafford6900You missed the sarcasm

That shit remind me of Star Wars when they need to find something in a planet and they just happen to land on the exact location it is.

didnt that movie have slama hayeks asscrack in it? I think it did. Robot head confirmed gay.

Indeed. Even Dawn of the Dead falls apart in the third act.

I won't lie, that scene more than almost any other really lends credence to the theory that this movie was written by AI that had other popular movies' scripts fed to it. "And now scene where heroic sad character with no emotions to display but who has secretly bonded with random npc child, dies saving said npc child from evil Nazis. Child is very sad. Scene is very poignant and meaningful because 7,249 movie scripts user has fed this prompt generator have said so.

​@thehoerscorral8565 lmao yeah, it needed more a fleshed out meaning. Why didn't they just make them the same race and her be like his Aunt that left town or something? Random kid all of a sudden sad made little to no sense.

But she had the name before he got the scar, no?
