      It wasn’t the worst movie I have ever seen, but I was constantly distracted by how derivative everything about it was. I was laughing at parts that were meant to be serious because it was just so ridiculous.

      What I said when the movie ended was: “it’s not exactly bad”.

      Instead, it’s something else. It’s not good either. But the one thing I know for sure is that it has enough time to add another half-a-dozen cliché short-stories that don’t add anything to the main line. It could have pulled 2 or 3 good one from Matrix.

      Eh I like campy scifi space opera movies and it delivered. We don’t get that many.

      It was way too superhero for me, but I didn’t realize it was a Snyder movie until I looked it up.

    It was actually good imo.

    Also can’t wait for the Red Rising TV show to come out.

      I typed out a huge rant in response to this, absolutely hating that series for reasons I can’t get started on without spiraling into an unhinged rant again, and decided that was way too negative a response for some casual excitement about an upcoming series.

      All I’ll say instead is I hope the show is better about staying on theme than the novels were.

      And, hey, best case scenario?

      We finally get a good Definitely-Not-Space-Marines show.

        In all fairness I just started the 3rd book and I’m unsure of where they’re going with it right now… but the first two were great reads. The whole class color system is a bit weird at times I have to admit but it’s still great entertainment. I’d also be interested to read your opinion more than a rant about it if you feel like it.

          The problem in that case is I absolutely can’t talk about the problems with it without spoiling the ending and quite a lot of the drama from the third book, but I will say I enjoyed the series quite a lot, teen drama and all, until #3.

          I’ll also say if you loved the combat in the second book you’ll love some 40k Space Marine novels because it was basically just a typical Astartes drop pod assault, including the MC melting a guy’s face with definitely-not-a-Betcher-Gland.

            Gotcha. I’ll keep on reading. And yes I did enjoy that battle I’ll the the 40k novels.
