    I hate that I didn’t know the second ended on a cliff hanger when I watched it. Wish I had known, since I would have avoided it and waited for the third movie to watch it all. Cliff hanger still passes me off.

      It doesn’t even foreshadow a cliff hanger is coming. It just ends mid conversation. No buildup or anything. Not a fun movie.

      When the first Lord of the Rings movie came out, it ended, and a guy stood up behind me and yelled “DAMN! THAT’S IT???!?!?”

      I got to explain “No, no, there’s TWO MORE…”

      It ended on a cliff hanger?

      Honestly can’t remember much of the film compared to the first.

    I’m sure they definitely won’t underpay and overwork the people working on it to get it out by an arbitrary deadline…

    Sony scrapped what they completed for Beyond the Spider-Verse shortly after the release of Across the Spider-Verse.

    That’s a pretty easy theory to put out when it was originally supposed to come out 7 months ago. I think they just vastly underestimated how long it’d take to finish. Scrapping the whole script so far would be an absurd overstep.

      I bet they’re trying to scrub off Lord and Miller from the credits. And the best way to ensure it is to make sure that no-one is their work makes it into the final cut

    Wouldn’t be surprised if the 3rd movie was bad. 2nd one was very unsatisfying. It didn’t feel like it stood very well on its own, and it felt like the majority of the movie was spent explaining the whole “cannon” concept.

      Every scene dragged on forever past it’s point. It was aggravating to watch compared to the first movie. And then bam, it just ends out of nowhere. They could have cut a ton of time out of it with better editing.
