Movies: General Discussion

I recently watched the latest Mad Max movie. I'm surprised that the rating dropped so little compared to the previous installment. The amount of “bad” green screen increased significantly, and the action decreased significantly as well. Although, overall, the story is well developed.

Welcome to 2025 Hollywood.
