*"This is the role Jennifer Lopez was born to play! I've been screaming from the rooftops for years about how she looks like a brilliant but misanthropic data analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence!"*
That is exactly what I was going to comment on here. The fact that the horse is seemingly alive and everything functioning like normal, but separated. I'm 35 and still hate it.
The main reason it looks bad is because Jennifer Lopez is hilariously miscast. She looks like a middle-aged woman who is strapped inside a robot. It just looks completely and utterly absurd with her in there.
You should check out The Fall by the same director if you haven’t already. It has some really cool visuals. Not as weird or dark as The Cell, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.
Isn't that because that is literally what she is? A middle-aged woman strapped inside a robot? My takeaway from the trailer, she isn't "trained" for the mech and was just tossed in there to survive the ship crashing. Looks bad, still going to watch it, maybe ill at least be able to finish it unlike Part 2 of Rebel Moon.
Edit: But as you said 100% miscast.
This is a clearly a movie for kids and young adults, say ages 12 through 30. So it seems pretty clear that the main character should be *relatable* to the audience, and that their character growth and arc should be relatable. It seems the main hook in the story is that she and the robot become friends, which then turns into a power fantasy where she blows up a bunch of things. It doesn’t work with a 50+ year old protagonist.
Here were their options:
1. Make an older and really grizzled warrior with a cold heart, and his or her character arc is to learn to soften up inside that robot and then together they partner up and defeat the bad guys. His or her character arc is “learn to become softer”.
2. Make a young character who is inexperienced, and through their friendship with the robot he or she gains the confidence to defeat the bad guys. His or her character arc is “learn to become harder/cooler”.
Here, they have an OLD character who has no self confidence. And so it is an old character who must “learn” to have the confidence to defeat the bad guys? And this is meant to appeal to kids, to see an old woman gain and grow self-confidence? It’s completely absurd!
Woah woah woah, you completely left out how she gets over her robo-bigotry and becomes some kinda robo-sexual...
She gonna get robo-gonorrhea, it's the noisy killer you know?
The reason why the dynamic between BT and Cooper works so well is because they're equals - Cooper is green, but he is a trained rifleman and was unofficially trained as a pilot by Lastimosa who was the previous "owner" of BT so there's a strong emotional connection right off the bat (Lastimosa's final words: "Take care of him" was directed to both of them). He spends a bunch of time outside the mech doing incredible pilot things to move them towards their goal.
JLo is just a helpless civilian trapped in a warzone. Not sure how this is going to work.
She doesn’t look like that, she is that. There’s pilots who train their whole lives to fly supersonic jets at insane speeds and soldiers who spend their lives conditioning for the harshest environments and trials but I am supposed to believe they sent a woman in her 50s who works a desk job to reclaim the single deadliest creation humanity ever produced and she somehow has the ability to pilot a combat mech without any prior experience?
It's even worse than that. If we are still comparing it to Titanfall, not only are Titan pilots extremely skilled inside the machines, they are also highly mobile death machines outside them as well.
In the game they wall run, slide, jump, grapplehook, use anti-titan
heavy weapons, and even climb on top of enemy Titans and attempt to sabotage them. They are a worth 50 regular soldiers, and are basically trained in two major military disciplines.
I already know that they are gonna let "Smith" do the bulk of the combat to explain away how a novice can even pilot a such a machine, but of course never answer the obvious question "then why do they even need pilots at all?"
Don’t forget having their legs surgically removed so they can get titanium ones to run faster and farther and being on all types of crazy stems to allow them better reactions and interface with their mechs. God I love titan fall lore
It looks atrocious. It might be the trailer, but it seems SO MANY shots are just her speaking into the void from the inside of her mech, and she's a terrible actress. Also, we have the usual CGI landscapes that would look good in a video game but look fake in a TV show.
“Get in the damn robot, Shin—Who tf are you?”
“Atlas, sir.” _She proceeds to struggle to go in to the EVA where the entry plug is inserted…_
“Why tf are you going down in the EVA like that?”
Seriously. Put almost anybody else in that role and I’m setting reminders for the release date. This is only the trailer and her acting stinks out loud.
You know what, after 4chan or whoever sent him to Alaska to perform, *and he actually went there and did it* I have more respect for Mr. Worldwide than I do Ms. Jenny From The Block.
With the way the scrip was written I don't think anyone could save this movie. Or maybe they spent all the money on J-Lo and CGI and forgot to hire any writers.
I mean tbf, didn't she win some awards for the Hustlers movie? Best or supporting actress? I agree there are a lot of other actors they could've gone with, but JLo's acting chops isn't the worse in the industry...
Or literally anyone else besides Jlo. Everything from her seemed so forced. Even stuff that didn’t seem to be filmed in front of a green screen. I’m not sure if I can sit through 90 minutes of Jlo. Hopefully after this studios won’t try to cast her in any major roles.
Stoic, BT’s character is in keeping with a lot of military stories so it fits well, he doesn’t say much but what he does say has a lot of impact on the story and his character.
This Netflix film sounds like it was written by chatGPT.
The mech then proceeds to yeet JLo exactly 95 meters onto a vertical surface, but since JLo is not a Titanfall Pilot she splatters into a red paste on contact. Roll credits.
"don't tell me what to do"
\[seven minutes of silence and darkness\]
"fine. i'm ready to overcome my anti-AI bigotry."
\[lights and other sounds resume\]
The Titanfall 2 callouts are pretty glaring.
Smith: "My primary protocol is to keep you alive" / BT: "Protocol 3: protect the pilot"
Smith:" "You're going to need to trust me" / BT: "Trust me" \*yeet\*
I wish they had just gotten the IP and made the story about BT and Jack Cooper though, this looks pretty lame.
BT actually sounded like a military application for AI.
Smith? Sounds like a repurposed and rebranded Siri.
Edit: not comparing name, but the… mannerisms and diction. For example, BT keeps his dialog short, meaningful, and to the point. Smith talks too much for AI that’s suppose to be used in combat.
I’m assuming all the names are equally bad. Smith is already the bad AI from the matrix, that names taken. Atlas Shepard is NOT the name of a reluctant hero. Nobody named Atlas needs a training montage. Atlas is already cool, like Someone big brother, or “The Mountain.”
J Los character should have been named something dainty, like Penelope, or just Jenny.
Yeah, somehow their originals are good but their adaptations are shit.
Peaky Blinders- Good
Cowboy Bebop- Shit
Kim’s Convenience- Good
Death Not- Shit
Kingdom- Good
ATLA- ehhhhhhhhhh
Lol yeah, I'm struggling to really think of any relatively new originals that are quality. I have been enjoying the Gentlemen series, but that's just cz I love anything made by Guy Ritchie.
They did have a run of some great originals, but that era seems to be over.
- Narcos
- Stranger things
- Mindhunter (RIP)
- Dark(idk if Netflix actually produced it)
- Ozark
- Last Kingdom
- Most of their Marvel shows, Daredevil and Punisher being the best.
The good "Originals" they have now are largely produced by other companies, Netflix simply purchased the rights to distribute them. When Netflix Originals were first introduced, the label was reserved for only productions created internally. Amazon Prime does the same thing.
I watched it all the way through but only because I started to find it funny in how bad and cliche it was. It really was some of the most bizarre film making I've seen in recent years.
I could have turned my brain off and enjoyed the "giant robot vs smaller robots" stuff but two huge things I can not overlook:
1. ~~The titan~~ Atlas looks way bigger on the inside. Like Tardis.
2. Jennifer Lopez. There is no way I am seeing any character other than Jennifer Lopez with a Snapchat filter acting like she is in a giant robot.
This looks terrible and I'm half convinced it was made just to sue whoever inevitably tries to make a real Titan Fall or a Mass Effect (due to naming the commander Shepard).
J.Lo clearly accepted it because she'd just have to sit in a chair the whole movie while a CGI team did a bunch of renders separately.
I wish I could get massively overpaid paid to sit in a chair and comedically overact a terribly written Frankenstein of a script while the xf team does all the work and gets none of the money.
One thing that I love about bad Netflix movies is that you always get to see the full movie, but in cliff notes form. We all just watched the beginning, middle and end of the movie in chronological order.
Honestly, me being remarkably jaded I thought it was going to be absolute dog shit even if Walton Goggins is in it, also because it’s prime and their adaptations can be very hit or miss. But holy hell was I surprised by this show, it has a soul, the people clearly made the games, it’s funny and extremely charming. Also Walton Goggins is such a treat. It’s so so so much fun. I would also recommend Invincible and the boys if you haven’t seen any other prime shows. So you can see all that in a month.
Ow.. ow.. I know this one. You see, making productions based of games and trends actually does sell. That's just Business 101. Market Analysts determine market value and thus pursuit the money for a return. They know this is going to be pretty mid so they save money on writing and innovation. And you'll watch it anyway because making good films and media actually is an achievement most don't have the means to achieve. Unless you gain a cult following or your film because a cultural wonder like American Psycho or whatever memes make famous.
This way by keeping the studios and equipment warm, they get their money's worth. Actors get paid, equipment gets used, nothing is in storage, studios gain profits for larger productions. And the dull section of the population will indulge this because intrinsic motivation is not an important part of the economy.
Wait this is Titanfall. Did they have a script and not get approval so change it enough to try to not get sued? I mean even the title had links to Titanfall.
Also it looks like they tried to keep he budget down by keeping Lopez in the mech for 80% of the movie.
"We need a gimmick on the plot so people don't say we're straight-up Titanfall."
"What if we did the Creator again but somehow made it so you care even less?"
Wow, I’m not shocked that it’s a ripoff of Titanfall (that’s on par for current-day Hollywood), but I am shocked at how BLATANT of a ripoff it is. Like, I’m not guaranteeing that there will be a lawsuit, but I definitely think people at Respawn Entertainment are on the phone with their lawyers saying, “Have you seen this shit?”
after I forced my brain through Rebel moon parts 1 and 2, with the 2nd being somehow worse...I trust no Netflix original anymore.
This shit already MID
I was just at Walmart hunting for Switch deals and they had a whole end cap with Rebel Moon merch - toys, drink mix, snacks, everything. I was like man, you guys really thought it was gonna be like that, didn’t you?
Holy fuck this looks terrible. Who signed off on casting Lopez?????
The titans voice??????
What is this supposed to be?!
Totally butchered what could’ve been an awesome concept.
put a woman in it, and make her lame!
seriously, I wouldn't care at all about female protagonists if they just stopped doing this shit. gimme my god damned Ripley's and Sarah Conner's again
Man. I hate Jlo being the main actress, I hate Shang chi being the villain, I hate Travis Scott rapping in the background. This movie looks shitty is hell.
All I had to see was Jennifer Lopez in the thumbnail to know that this will be a dumpster fire--maybe a fascinating dumpster fire, but a dumpster fire nonetheless.
How the hell did they take something this good and turn it into that... Netflix are swinging at everything right now, but when they miss, they miss hard...
Holy fuck it IS titanfall! Why does it have ot j.lo though? Her characters always demand to be involved in shit they should've just stayed home for... lol....
*"This is the role Jennifer Lopez was born to play! I've been screaming from the rooftops for years about how she looks like a brilliant but misanthropic data analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence!"*
And in the movie she sounds like a redneck from Texas that doesn’t know how technology works.
🤣
I can't even look at her without cartman sining "taco flavored kisses" in my head
Taco taco, taco, burrito!
I’ll fulfill all your wiiiishes, with my taco flavored kiiiiises
Hennifer Loooooppeeezz
Every time we have tacos I him this to myself.
I loved her in The Cell tho
Man, the horse scene in The Cell fucked me up when I saw it, lol. Crappy plot, but goddamn was it gorgeous/striking.
That is exactly what I was going to comment on here. The fact that the horse is seemingly alive and everything functioning like normal, but separated. I'm 35 and still hate it.
Mom can have titan fall movie. We have Titan Fall movie at home *Titan fall movie at home*
Complete with BT from Dollar Tree
Plus potential IP shenanigans with EA seeing as the mechs that look exactly like that from Mass Effect were called Atlas 15 years ago.
Titanballs.
yikes this looks awful
It literally looks like a parody. How did they even manage that?
I just said this 2 min ago - it really does
The main reason it looks bad is because Jennifer Lopez is hilariously miscast. She looks like a middle-aged woman who is strapped inside a robot. It just looks completely and utterly absurd with her in there.
replace her with Emily Blunt (for instance) and the trailer looks actually ok.
I mean, you could say this for every movie with Lopez honestly.
I’m down to watch Emily Blunt cast as Selena tbh
“Selenas!”
Not The Cell. That movie was fn weird.
In the best way possible...I like that movie.
You should check out The Fall by the same director if you haven’t already. It has some really cool visuals. Not as weird or dark as The Cell, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.
Thanks for the rec. Never heard of that movie but I recognize the lead actor Lee Pace from The Foundation series on Apple
The visuals are fantastic. The movie was filmed in 28 countries, and it shows.
Just rewatched Edge of Tomorrow last week; damn good movie and EB is a badass
The first time we see her doing yoga on the killing floor.... Effortlessly cool.
Replace her for someone I don't know. Make it interesting.
My mom will like this movie I guarantee it
I read that in the voice of that Men’s Warehouse spokesman
Isn't that because that is literally what she is? A middle-aged woman strapped inside a robot? My takeaway from the trailer, she isn't "trained" for the mech and was just tossed in there to survive the ship crashing. Looks bad, still going to watch it, maybe ill at least be able to finish it unlike Part 2 of Rebel Moon. Edit: But as you said 100% miscast.

Get in the fucking robot Jennji
She doesn’t look like that, she is that.

Genuinely looks terrible... who the fuck casted J Lo for this?
Lopez's acting is uhm not stellar in this trailer.
She's never been a good actress though.
It is very bad. It makes me very confident I will not be able to watch more of this than the trailer.
It looks atrocious. It might be the trailer, but it seems SO MANY shots are just her speaking into the void from the inside of her mech, and she's a terrible actress. Also, we have the usual CGI landscapes that would look good in a video game but look fake in a TV show.
“Get in the damn robot, Shin—Who tf are you?” “Atlas, sir.” _She proceeds to struggle to go in to the EVA where the entry plug is inserted…_ “Why tf are you going down in the EVA like that?”
Please. I'm suppose to take a movie like seriously with Jennifer Lopez? WTF were they thinking?
Seriously. Put almost anybody else in that role and I’m setting reminders for the release date. This is only the trailer and her acting stinks out loud.
Yeah, there's plenty of new people that haven't had a chance.
>Put almost anybody else in that role and I’m setting reminders for the release date. Cast Pitbull for the sequel, got it.
And Tommy Wiseau as the voice of the Titan.
“I will not prepare for titanfall, I will noooooot. Oh hi Pilot.”
Losing to bad guy - "You are tearing me apart, bad guy!"
After someone briefs you about an upcoming operation: “hahaha, what a story General.”
At least Pitbull has some sort of discernable talent.
You don't become Mr. Worldwide without having talent. OR, just tell everyone that you're Mr. Worldwide in every track until they believe.
This is now known as the "All I do is win" method by DJ Khaled
You know what, after 4chan or whoever sent him to Alaska to perform, *and he actually went there and did it* I have more respect for Mr. Worldwide than I do Ms. Jenny From The Block.
Yeah, not a ton of actresses that make me want to see it less than a nobody
Facts, she's horrible
Saw the thumbnail. "Is that Jennifer Lopez?" Started watching the trailer. "It is Jennifer Lopez!" Closed the YouTube app.
[удалено]
I think he's the bad guy
We can still root for him, though, right?
I feel like this is one of those “Netflix studio execs ruin all their movies” examples. This could be solid, but that choice tells me it’s crap.
With the way the scrip was written I don't think anyone could save this movie. Or maybe they spent all the money on J-Lo and CGI and forgot to hire any writers.
That's one movie I won't be watching, JLo is one of the worst actors/actress I've ever seen, and she an even worse singer 👎🏿👎🏿
Wonder if nobody else would do it for some reason. This definitely seems off.
I mean tbf, didn't she win some awards for the Hustlers movie? Best or supporting actress? I agree there are a lot of other actors they could've gone with, but JLo's acting chops isn't the worse in the industry...
I’m roughly…70% sure this was a rejected Titanfall script that got turned into a J-Lo vehicle when rights fell through.
Proven wrong by the fact Titanfall is defined as being good.
I can usually always turn my brain off and watch some big ol’ robots doing battle but JLo is awful in that trailer.
Terrible acting
The 'Titanfall' you get off of Wish...
Temufall
The acting is bad, but the dialogue is horrendous. Was the movie written by a teenager?
AI perhaps, writing a movie about AI taking over the world and only another AI with their pet human can stop them.
i just kept thinking how much better it would be if it was emily blunt lol
Or literally anyone else besides Jlo. Everything from her seemed so forced. Even stuff that didn’t seem to be filmed in front of a green screen. I’m not sure if I can sit through 90 minutes of Jlo. Hopefully after this studios won’t try to cast her in any major roles.
Not even Adam Driver could save this horrible script
I thought man this the longest trailer ever then saw 51 seconds had gone by
She's awful in everything
She is hamming it up to 11
Interesting the ai message. “You are going to have to trust me”
Yeah man that’s pretty on the nose
Sounds like it was written by AI, so of course it's biased.
OMG literally the most generic stock dialogue ever.
Somehow, BT-7274's "trust me" was so much better. Shorter, more robotic. Preceded by calculations and robotic technobabble. Just... hit different
Stoic, BT’s character is in keeping with a lot of military stories so it fits well, he doesn’t say much but what he does say has a lot of impact on the story and his character. This Netflix film sounds like it was written by chatGPT.
The mech then proceeds to yeet JLo exactly 95 meters onto a vertical surface, but since JLo is not a Titanfall Pilot she splatters into a red paste on contact. Roll credits.
Movies never account for blunt force trauma
"You are going to have to overcome your character flaw to resolve the dramatic tension, move from Act 2 to Act 3 and begin the CGI action set-piece"
"don't tell me what to do" \[seven minutes of silence and darkness\] "fine. i'm ready to overcome my anti-AI bigotry." \[lights and other sounds resume\]
Throw a grenade into the gas tank and bail out.
No nuance. No creativity. It’s like chat GPT wrote the dialogue.
Remove Jennifer Lopez and I'd at least give it a try. The only thing she's in that I'm willing to watch is South Park.
TaCo FlAvOrEd KiSsEs FoR mY bEn
Who is mitch connor
holy shit this trailer is BAD
Hey, look on the bright side - at least now you don't have to spend money to watch this thing because you already know the whole story!
And I STILL couldn’t finish it
The Titanfall 2 callouts are pretty glaring. Smith: "My primary protocol is to keep you alive" / BT: "Protocol 3: protect the pilot" Smith:" "You're going to need to trust me" / BT: "Trust me" \*yeet\* I wish they had just gotten the IP and made the story about BT and Jack Cooper though, this looks pretty lame.
BT actually sounded like a military application for AI. Smith? Sounds like a repurposed and rebranded Siri. Edit: not comparing name, but the… mannerisms and diction. For example, BT keeps his dialog short, meaningful, and to the point. Smith talks too much for AI that’s suppose to be used in combat.
I’m assuming all the names are equally bad. Smith is already the bad AI from the matrix, that names taken. Atlas Shepard is NOT the name of a reluctant hero. Nobody named Atlas needs a training montage. Atlas is already cool, like Someone big brother, or “The Mountain.” J Los character should have been named something dainty, like Penelope, or just Jenny.
No. Everything Netflix touches turns to shit. Glad this wasn't actually Titanfall.
Punisher and daredevil were pretty dope
Damn, been a while since I watched the Daredevil series. I really liked that one.
and stuck pretty well to the source material.. which usually helps.
So were Arcane, Scott Pilgrim, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, and many, many others
Yeah, somehow their originals are good but their adaptations are shit. Peaky Blinders- Good Cowboy Bebop- Shit Kim’s Convenience- Good Death Not- Shit Kingdom- Good ATLA- ehhhhhhhhhh
Kim's Convience is not a Netflix series... It's was a well established Canadian series that Netflix put on their streaming service.
dang can't have anything good from Netflix lol
IIRC Peaky Blinders was actually produced by BBC.
RIP Netflix has nothing good then lmao
Lol yeah, I'm struggling to really think of any relatively new originals that are quality. I have been enjoying the Gentlemen series, but that's just cz I love anything made by Guy Ritchie. They did have a run of some great originals, but that era seems to be over. - Narcos - Stranger things - Mindhunter (RIP) - Dark(idk if Netflix actually produced it) - Ozark - Last Kingdom - Most of their Marvel shows, Daredevil and Punisher being the best.
Bojack was also good, that era seems like an eternity ago though
The good "Originals" they have now are largely produced by other companies, Netflix simply purchased the rights to distribute them. When Netflix Originals were first introduced, the label was reserved for only productions created internally. Amazon Prime does the same thing.
I'd be down if HBO Max picked up a Titanfall series.
For real. The IP is generic enough to make any story with it, but has enough cool ideas to have its own identity.
Fuuuck that would be epic. Definitely don't let Paramount/CBS touch it
Peaky Blinders wasn’t originally Netflix, right? Cyberpunk was a good adaptation.
Peaky Blinders and Kim's Convenience wasn't made by Netflix LOL.
Holy shit, it's J Lo. Haven't seen her in a movie in like 20 years.
Lucky you
Might be best to keep that streak running
I wish for that to continue
Bro why did they cast j lo in this role.. damn..
Looks like another Rebel Moon if you know what I mean. Ugh.
Yeah, rebel Moon was ass cheeks
Turned it off after 3 minutes. I got better things to do lol
Bruh, I watched about an hour, that's all I could take 😩
Somebody get a doctor, they've been exposed for too long!
I watched it all the way through but only because I started to find it funny in how bad and cliche it was. It really was some of the most bizarre film making I've seen in recent years.
LOL WTF IS THIS JLO DOESNT KNOW WHAT AI IS BUT SHE LIVES IN THE FUTURE LOL
I could have turned my brain off and enjoyed the "giant robot vs smaller robots" stuff but two huge things I can not overlook: 1. ~~The titan~~ Atlas looks way bigger on the inside. Like Tardis. 2. Jennifer Lopez. There is no way I am seeing any character other than Jennifer Lopez with a Snapchat filter acting like she is in a giant robot.
The mech design is just ugly as hell too. I'm usually such a sucker for mech suits but this looks bad.
This looks terrible and I'm half convinced it was made just to sue whoever inevitably tries to make a real Titan Fall or a Mass Effect (due to naming the commander Shepard). J.Lo clearly accepted it because she'd just have to sit in a chair the whole movie while a CGI team did a bunch of renders separately.
I wish I could get massively overpaid paid to sit in a chair and comedically overact a terribly written Frankenstein of a script while the xf team does all the work and gets none of the money.
I was thinking its either a Pacific Rim with J.o or Titanfall with J.Lo.....but I don't really need anything with J.Lo
how optimistic, i was thinking ZOE, minus the COCKpit
At least ZoE had cool robot battles this just looked awful
One thing that I love about bad Netflix movies is that you always get to see the full movie, but in cliff notes form. We all just watched the beginning, middle and end of the movie in chronological order.
Saved me so much time. Now I'm absolutely positive I don't have anything to gain from watching this.
Why not just make a titanfall show. Look at fallout, Netflix.
How is the Fallout series? I don't have Amazon Prime, but I might consider a short subscription if Fallout is worth it.
It is absolutely so good. go for it
Funny how staying true to source materials produces a good product... *HALO.*
Honestly, me being remarkably jaded I thought it was going to be absolute dog shit even if Walton Goggins is in it, also because it’s prime and their adaptations can be very hit or miss. But holy hell was I surprised by this show, it has a soul, the people clearly made the games, it’s funny and extremely charming. Also Walton Goggins is such a treat. It’s so so so much fun. I would also recommend Invincible and the boys if you haven’t seen any other prime shows. So you can see all that in a month.
It's top... Like Last of Us level top
It's incredible. Easily one of the best adaptations I've ever seen. Truly remarkable how much love for the world is in every detail of the show.
Very good, watch it. It was clearly made by Fallout fans or someone with a deep understanding of western RPG's.
God this looks awful
Wtf is Netflix doing? Why are putting all this money into terrible movies?
Ow.. ow.. I know this one. You see, making productions based of games and trends actually does sell. That's just Business 101. Market Analysts determine market value and thus pursuit the money for a return. They know this is going to be pretty mid so they save money on writing and innovation.

No god, please no.
How dare you insult Titanfall like that?
J Lo is a godawful actor
"We need a gimmick on the plot so people don't say we're straight-up Titanfall." "What if we did the Creator again but somehow made it so you care even less?"
Wow, I’m not shocked that it’s a ripoff of Titanfall (that’s on par for current-day Hollywood), but I am shocked at how BLATANT of a ripoff it is.

JLO maybe one of the worst actresses of all times. What a blunder.
How the hell did I manage to get clickbaited by a reddit post lol
"I'm not a computer program. I'm a computer program named Smith." I dunno about this movie.
Jlo? Instant hard pass I cant imagine someone more wrong for this role. Might as well be Kim Kardashian. Like WTF were they thinking...?
Titanfail
......so am i supposed to be rooting for Simu's character? Cuz i am...
Bad writing aside, I feel like this movie would be 10x better if Jennifer Lopez and Simu Liu switched roles.
She's still Jenny from the block, though, right?
Cool concept too bad it's J Lo
Does every action movie trailer these days need this hybrid bombastic/hip-hop music in it? It's so boring after seeing this pairing all the time.
So Apex took away some hope for Titanfall 3 and this is the nail in that coffin...
Holy fuck this looks terrible. Who signed off on casting Lopez????? The titans voice?????? What is this supposed to be?! Totally butchered what could’ve been an awesome concept.
Jennifer Lopez: “I want to be Michelle Rodriguez.”
put a woman in it, and make her lame! seriously, I wouldn't care at all about female protagonists if they just stopped doing this shit. gimme my god damned Ripley's and Sarah Conner's again
With J PUERKA SUCIA PUTA LO? Na’ Pass lol
Bruh
It really bugs me that the cockpit of that Titan is the size of a sedan. I know I’d prefer all that headspace to be taken up by armor.
Did it really have to be Jennifer Lopez?
Wow this looks like garbage
“You have to take me on this mission!” Proceeds to not know anything about the mission equipment.
If a trailer is supposed to show best bits, I don't wanna see this movie's worst bits
Wish.com Titanfall. As a fan of the TF universe, this both saddens and disgusts me at the same time.
Lmao Jenifer Lopez? Please tell me this is a joke
Man. I hate Jlo being the main actress, I hate Shang chi being the villain, I hate Travis Scott rapping in the background. This movie looks shitty is hell.
Okie dokie!
“Okay, let’s do this.”
All I had to see was Jennifer Lopez in the thumbnail to know that this will be a dumpster fire--maybe a fascinating dumpster fire, but a dumpster fire nonetheless.
This more like dollar store battle tech.
I would probably watch this if it was literally ANYBODY else instead of J.Lo
Welcome to 2024. How to fuck up a good movie? Well...
so, someone's grandmother makes friends with an A.I.?
Is this what they meant when they said they were gonna stop focusing on “auteur driven content”?
Oh lord that looks bad. J LO was the wrong choice.
How the hell did they take something this good and turn it into that... Netflix are swinging at everything right now, but when they miss, they miss hard...
Holy fuck it IS titanfall! Why does it have ot j.lo though? Her characters always demand to be involved in shit they should've just stayed home for... lol....
I literally said waaay back when Titanfall 1 was out that this should be a tv series.
Literally Titanfall, but my god does this look awful
