    The Wachowski’s made history with their groundbreaking movie The Matrix back in 1999. But it seems like over the past 25 years they’ve never been able to recapture that magic, try as they may have.
    Jupiter Ascending rdefinitely raises some questions. Like why is Channing Tatum half a dog? Is Jupiter even interested in anything that’s happening? Why does this movie do the exact same scene twice, back-to-back and beat-for-beat?
    To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Jupiter Ascending!

      Agreed. They still had a budget for gorgeous costumes and tons of CGI in J.A. But if your movie has a bland main protagonist who seems to be sleepwalking through the story with a disinterested expression (same problem the Twilight movies have) and the script can be pulled apart by a few logical questions, the CGI budget wasnt the issue...

      Perhaps because
      1) Queen Elizabeth was of the "female" human phenotype. Beards are typically s characteristic of the male human phenotype.
      And jumbling up phenotypes is TIGHT.
      And funny.
      2) Queen Elizabeth is dead. So a beard of bees--rather than, say, globs of maggots consuming the decaying flesh of the former Sovereign of 12 countries--is an amusing twist.

      Hearing it described like this, I'm getting those familiar "This started as someone's fanfiction" vibes. Could be an original story, but that general level of narrative ability... where it's really just "This would be cool, so it happens. And that would be cool, so it happens too." Little trace of any kind of red thread or cause-and-effect chains precipitating events, so much as just... a bunch of random stuff all thrown at the viewer until, at some point, it ends. A child's story, of sorts. Not bad, necessarily, but... incongruous.

      @@Templar462 Consider the overall story; a "normal" person in modern day discovers that humanity is really just a small cog in a galaxy (or greater) spanning empire that is using those lives as a commodity for the rulers own benefit, and this normal person happens to hold a status that can overturn that circumstance to save humanity as a whole....
      IMO, that's a great premise for a movie or a series of books. I know I've read worse ones.
      In terms of the execution, when I first watched the movies I chose to ignore those details, but the critique is pretty damn close to spot on. If things had been fleshed out; film 1 the girl finds out about the galactic empire and that she holds a special rank in that empire that she was not aware. Film 2; after discovering the size and scope of the empire, the protagonist tries to stake her claim over the planet she wants to save, but has to deal with the "royal" feud in order to maintain that claim, beating the 2 of 3 weakest siblings. Film 3; Starts with battling the final sibling, then the protagonist gathers forces in order to relinquish the "empires" control over the planet or to destabilize that empire in such a way that it cannot present a threat to the earth for the foreseeable future.
      Yes, it would hit the brakes on most of the action, but there are many books where the anticipation of the conflict takes up more space than the actual conflicts.

All of their projects suffer from this problem with their "better" stories mostly grabbing the story structure from other sources. The first Matrix is fundamentally Alice in Wonderland (which the Wachowskis make obvious via the Alice in Wonderland references in the movie).

    It's nice that, when I'm interested in knowing what a movie is about but cant stand the thought of watching it, Ryan George saves the day 🤣

    Naming your lead character after one of Alfred Hitchcock's Three Investigators is tight.

      The movie would have been ten times better with the original Jupiter Jones as the lead tbh. Wouldn't even have hurt the plot, as there is no plot.

      YES! I was wondering if anyone besides me recognized the name Jupiter Jones! Also, it should be noted that Jupiter has been an exclusively male name for at least a few thousand years. The "-piter" part of the name literally means "father".

      They should’ve named her Bob Andrews or Pete Crenshaw. Missed opportunity.

    This is the first time I could see Producer Guy at the end just saying “No. No, we’re not doing this one. “

      And then, "...Aww, c'mon dad!? Even if I get the Wachowski Brothers??"
      "Okay, but only if you get the Wachowski Brothers..."
      **12 months later**
      "I got the Wachowski Sisters!"
      **Producer Guy stares...**
      **Pitch Guy stares...**
      **Producer Guy stares...**
      **Pitch Guy stares...**
      "...ohh, okay. FINE!!"

    This movie makes me really appreciate that Iron Man never really "skated" around on the jets.

      Thank goodness they didn't include the skates from the older Iron Man comics.
