The Enchanter's Theorem

In which Anji takes apart Zack Snyder's cute little idea of a movie and beats him about the face and neck with it for being criminally stupid.

So. Watched Sucker Punch yesterday.

Visually? OMG, fucking epic. Content wise? Content? What content? What is this content thing you speak of?

*sigh*

Zack, Zack, Zack. You can't do that with an action movie. Or, more accurately, decide what kind of fucking film you are trying to make and *make that.*

( Everyone has an Angel. )

*sigh*

I've seen this story before. I didn't like it the ten previous times before either.

But y'know what? Some day, someone beside Josh Whedon is going to pick up that poor little blond girl. Is going to give her agency and all the weapons she needs. Is going to give her strong warrior compatriots and is going to set her loose on the world. And when that day comes, I will buy all the movie tickets and all the popcorn that can be bought.

And if no one else does? Well, y'know what?

I will.

Oh wait. I already have.

Say hello, Alice.
