It wasn't baaad, but it wasn't great. It was a solid MEH. What a waste of two hours. I know, I know, I should have known better(it's a goddamn Marvel movie) but I love the FF and was curious. Great casting and aesthetic, but utterly lukewarm when it comes to memorable scenes or any kind of wow moments. Very FF paint-by-numbers. Esecially after DC killing it with Superman, it makes this movie look even more mediocre. c/movies I promise I'll never do this again 😭

the vast majority of people understood it to be a reference to the Israel/Palestine conflict hence why you and I are even talking about

The vast majority of people are fucking illiterate and they read shit into it that wasn't there, which is why it explicitly disappointed me. Anyone thinking "the director was commenting on Israel" is wish casting.
