...except here, you've unintentionally nailed it. THAT'S the point. these stories are deeply personal to them and there is no desire for 'appeal' beyond "this is the story i want to tell". And that's what I love about the film... "fan service" has ruined so much of franchise movie making, imo
>They need a fresh approach to this franchise, but one that >still builds on this world and story.
no, they don't. they are artists and their 'need' is to use their voice. their work just happened to be wildly popular and loved by many. they (or at least Lana) told you exactly that in the first 30 minutes of the film.
>Otherwise, this will just be another Terminator, sequel after >sequel that just doesn't work.
and Lana is fine w/that. It works for her.
>I get that the Wachowski brand REALLY works for some people. > >But there are so many more of us who love the core elements of >this franchise, and would like to see them put together in a >fresh way.
again, they aren't about 'fan service'
>Resurrections was an opportunity to do that, and it missed, >IMO, by a lot. IMO it deserves better than what its, erm, >architects have designed.
an artists' work deserves only the artists' voice, vision and execution. that's it
imagine if you released your music and it was deeply personal subject matter and folks start telling you the opportunities you missed and what your songs deserved, etc
i mean even if you didn't mind, and you choose to make the music your fans like or want, that's a choice you make...not all artists should have to choose that.
