Did DC just copy the Marvel Spiderman idea..
Wasn't there just a penguin series basically, with the young batman series?
Soundtrack is changing speeds every few seconds?!
These 'chosen ones' should never be 'infield' ever + more
They show the rape scene twice in 2 'versions of history', but basically it's the same a second time?

I put my very soft spoiler in spoiler so you can read it.
For me it was worth
Appreciate you for writing that, hope you have good days
When i watched the movie i did not think the mother was racist. And i thought the daughter was portrayed as a little racist. I did not feel the director tried to sell anything, i think he did a great job painting realistic people (Not perfect. On the whole rational. And not making superstupid decisions like so often in movies)
My guess is a movie like eg 'before sunset' you say also that nothing happened at all, just because they were 'just talking'.
I think it's same with this one here. While in this one i think also a lot happened. There are just no clear conclusions. Actually the <spoiler>houseowner black guy gave us the explanation at the end</spoiler> and i like that they did, but the movie is i think about empathizing with this feeling of being out of control and not knowing what's happening, thats the goal. Not 'but who did it!'. There are other movies that are about 'ok, what happened, how can the heroes stop it' and they can also be great, and this one was different and i liked it. And i can believe it's not the cup of tea of other people.
Not sure, perhaps they know someone and want to help them. But the scenario of the movie - attack of foreign country: just cutting off communication by hacking and doing some minimal terrorist attacks and misinformation, so the country starts their own civil war and do their own coup de tat - supposedly the cheapest way to fuck up a country.
Is a kinda political scenario
The countermessage is 'our vulnerability is our divisiveness, don't start a civil war'
Besides that i really like the movie, i think it's an artistic movie that's about the characters, and about this situation they are in of mostly not knowing. And realistic characters, realistic choices, and i don't see it as a political movie at all
:)
I thought the house owner was quite humble
I really enjoyed the tension of not knowing - i knew the same thing as the characters - basically hardly anything - and so i felt with them in the confusion and tension of 'omg, this is weird, now i really wanna know what's going on'.
We never see inside the city, but we see a lot of helicopters over the city when the bombs go off.
Also the black guy right at the end explained very clear what is happening, what's the scenario of the movie - that there are no rogue forces, just cutting off communication by hacking and doing some minimal terrorist attacks and misinformation, so the country starts their own civil war and do their own coup de tat - supposedly the cheapest way to fuck up a country.
Rose is super-stressed and that's why she clings on to her new favorite series, she seeks comfort in that.
I found all characters to be realistic and human, and not making superstupid decisions (like in many other movies).
Also no interracial woke messages i see at all. Teslas are just crashed because of their great ability to self drive. The black daughter is a little paranoid and racist, the movie does not portray this as anything good, she is just portrayed as the others as not perfect humans. I really found this movie to be much more exciting and interesting than eg the latest marvel movie (don't feel much great tension, interest or empathy with the characters there)
Now that's a dark way to end it :)
I have to agree i also thoroughly enjoyed it, i loved the tension throughout and agree the ending was a bit underwhelming to me. On the other hand i imagine someone making this in a series, and then it would have a strong start and then get old soon - while the movie it keeps being interesting, then there is like a 30sec ending and done.
The Dears thing was a bit to mystical to me.
I was sometimes a little bit confused in the start/middle of the season,
and i found the last episode to be very emotionally satisfying and i slowly felt that i finally kinda get the story)
Wondering about the same
Don't think they did
My best explanation:
Loki God of mischief magician has some kind of natural talent for time travel or smth - that's why 'the one who remains' chose him to be his successor, cause he didn't want the job anymore. And led him on his path to finally meet him and offer him the job.
