My problems with Tron: Ares have nothing to do with Jared Leto other than he probably shouldn’t be in movies or producing them.

Like, I’m dissecting this thing and reworking it over and over.

So, I’m happy. It made me feel something so strongly.

🦇 Spooky Scary Arsenal Bat 🦇 @arsenalbat.art · 8h

The way I feel about Tron: Ares is very similar to how I felt after seeing Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep because I can’t believe how much they missed the mark on a sure thing.

Portland protestor frog costume: What are you trying to tell me? That I can dodge pepper balls?

Morpheus from Matrix movie: No, Frog. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to.

For the visuals and the NIN it is a blast, I’m just having a bit of a conniption fit over the story and dialogue.

I’m doing my best to be good and not spoil it, but, dude, I’ve not checked out so hard mid-movie in a long time.

Sadly, I think it is. How much I don’t want it to either. I got my Tron 3, and maybe a franchise but

I might have said “oh, fuck you, movie” out loud at least twice.

It is the movie equivalent of kicking the can down the road.

My non-spoiler thoughts of Tron: Ares. Christ do I want to spoil this because I have thoughts.

Tron: Ares is the Jurassic World: Dominion of Tron movies.

Which might be harsh because Tron: Ares is better, but they are really shockingly similar.

Tron: Ares is the #Im14AndThisIsDeep subreddit of movies.

You are mostly correct, but I will go to bat in support for both Hellraiser 2, Hellraiser: Bloodlines and Hellraiser (2022).

Jack Posobiec explicitly says that "Antifa" dates back to the Weimar Republic, explicitly acknowledging that this administration is opposed to those who resisted the arrival of Adolf Hitler in Power.

I mean, the ICE “crack downs” are basically an extension of “look how tough we are! We are Stallone! We are warriors!” (And real people are getting hurt)

But they look assholes in cosplay while people in inflated frog costumes twerk in front of them.

Them freaking out so much about this is the fundamental psychological breakdown of the modern day GOP:

1. They don't want to rule, they want to be validated
2. In America, to be validated is to be recognized by our chief export: Entertainment.
