I would have to agree, I saw it on streaming months after it was available and really enjoyed the movie. The trailer in the theater made me not want to see it but once I did I wish I had seen it in theaters.
My initial reaction to this headline: the fuck is Babylon?
Individually, scenes are amazing. But as a movie? A complete waste of time. That’s why it flopped, because it was just rich people burning money for absolutely nothing.
The AI industry: hold my beer…
I’m not sure anyone will be thinking anything about it in 20 years.
Other than her I’m not sure anybody was thinking about it 2 years after it came out
I’m one of those people. Knew about it for a while cause I’m a movie nerd but I read the plot.
It sounded like rich people indulging in hedonism.
Didn’t peak my interest.
The initial trailers put me off as well but the movie itself is about much more than that, is really well done and it’s entertaining
FYI…
Pique, not peak.
Wait so it’s not the highest point of my interest?
God damn English, I thought I had learned you by now.
Always happy to help spread linguistic oddities.
And if I’ve learned anything about English, it’s that you never learn it - you just learn more of it.
So I guess you could say, you’ll never reach the peak?
Just don’t say it’s piquant. That means your interest has soured. That’d be for the people who did watch it.
You could say peak of your interest, but yeah, it’s piqued.
Thank you TIL
It came out in 2022 and I’ve never heard of it, like not one commercial or preview. A quick search shows it’s over 3 hours long, drags out with no clear point and misrepresents history pretty badly. I’m not really surprised
Didn’t help the plot is completely opaque. I still have no idea what it’s about. It is in my to-watch list tho.
Sounds like those who’ve seen it still don’t know any more than you do.
