    I would love a review of the Core! Its not amazing, but I feel like it isn't' as bad as you might think. I mean it's all obviously absurd, but they do explore real scientific concepts in some fun ways and the characters are pretty likable (for this type of film lol). Also, a lot of the characters are science professors so you would have plenty to say on that aspect I'm sure.
    If you need further convincing one of the opening scenes depicts a space shuttle landing in the LA river, so that's fun.

    It's a crying shame that George Miller was ready to go, immediately after Fury Road, as were all the actors and he already had the next story written. After the HUGE success of Fury Road, and given Miller was obviously on fire, the fact that the industry turned their backs on him for so long due to bullshit and pettiness and politics is disgusting. Had to endure another 20,000 Marvel vs Hulk vs Guardians Of The Galaxy : The Return! stlye bullshit movies while Miller sat on the shelf....

      The issue: People and companies have swapped out their competency for gatekeeper-ism. Expect little culture. Its ideology wars in the corporatocracy, and we are all losing out to it. Hegemonies suck. Because their ego comes before humanity.

      @@burtlangoustine1 Social conditioning, as has been the case since Eduard Bernays. We saw the video game industry takeover, mid 2000's, and what happened to THAT. Music industry the same, Simon Cowell world these days. Nobody gets a record deal unless they're pre-manufactured and sold their soul. But the movie industry I always figured could hold out. Then suddenly .... they didn't.
      Indie has kept me going for so long, and the odd gem gets through.
      Damn shame for future generations.

      Fury Road was certainly a huge success critically. But it cost between $154 million to over $180 million to make not including advertising. It grossed $380 million. It's said that a film has to make two and half times its production costs to break even. At it's lowest estimated production cost, Fury Road, at best, would have profited a few million dollars. At its highest estimated production cost, it would have lost over $50 million. So, it's understandable that a studio might be hesitant to invest in a sequel. Especially since Furiosa is said to have cost $230 million to make.

      @@richardb6260 You can thank Star Wars for that! Without the merchandise tie ins and sponsership deals that George Lucas demanded he keep with his contract rights, that franchise would have ended up in the same basket as said movie. And is the similar reason that you would not see a proper contiuation of LOTR because it would be seen as marketable assest by executives without the weak minded race/gender woke politrics tainting every inch of the subject matter. I'm grateful people like George Miller and Ridley Scott stick to their guns and at least try to keep it real without being caught up with in the instant gratification of modern day Pedowood.

    I've always loved learning about space and how the solar system works so I appreciate your insight.
    It does look like it will be an amazing movie. The visuals look really good. I hope it has the same pacing as fury road.
    Thank You

    Friend told me water wars would supercede oil wars. Those immigrants from the Patai Zone crowding in on us in both hemispheres will be looking for H2O more than anything else because systems theory is such a foreign idea to the bush-wah mentality.

    Maybe I’m a lone voice I hated Furry Road the premise was dumb no water no one would survive and where did they get the fuel for the motor bike for a start to travel 10 days or what ever it was. Lost in Space had better science than this dopey movie.

    • @brotherjohnnyxXxX

      The premise is simple - not dumb - just like the other Mad Max movies. In Fury Road it is stated several times that they have enough fuel and supplies to ride for 160 days.

      Fury Road - a feminist movie - was a financial success, received almost universal critical acclaim and Charlize Theron’s Furiosa simply stole the show.
