I actually like the emo dancing more than the gymnastics, lol. But this is a given. Even fans of this movie hate this part.

I won't argue with any of this. I think it's fun and certainly visually terrific, but I can see why some wouldn't like this.

See, this to me? That's where we part ways. I think this stands on its own. The scene with Moore on the glass *alone* is worth the price of admission imo. It's fucking brilliant.

JP3 is far more forgettable, just due to lacking the visual splendor of the first two. I'll be interested to see if Trevorrow can capture the visuals-- the first trailer certainly seemed to indicate he's going big, which is a good thing (haven't seen the rest). I remain hopeful.
