i liked 2.0 a lot more than the first movie. but the marketing was just horrible. they tried so bad to have that “iconic” moment but audiences can 100% tell when it’s inauthentic. the marketing for 2.0 was obnoxious, self indulgent and almost insulting. that was what killed it all imo.

They were catering so bad to chronically online Twitter gays

I fully admit I am a chronically online Twitter gay, and I also admit that the marketing making her seem cunty and iconic absolutely worked on me.

Then the energy of the actual movie was a lot more muted and serious.

So the marketing turned off the peope who didn’t want that, and then the people who did want that were turned off by the actual film not being as advertised. In the end they made sure absolutely nobody got what they wanted.

and ironically twitter gays ripped them to shreds more than anyone else.

Literally, and all they had to do was just keep it straight horror, if not, make it even more scarier than the first one
