Have you ever wondered how Zack Snyder's "Rebel Moon" measures up in an era brimming with space sagas? Let's unravel this celestial tapestry together, navigating a podcast where the drinks flow as freely as "Rebel Moon's" garbage storytelling. With a Jack Daniels in one hand and a laser sword, one we only turn on when the fight is almost over, in the other, we traverse the visual grandeur reminiscent of Snyder's "300" days, while confronting the narrative turbulence that has Snyder fanboys up in arms defending their messiah.
Strap in for a starship ride of opinionated banter as we dissect the film's contentious storytelling elements. The inclusion of multiple sexual assault events as a narrative catalyst and the heavy reliance on exposition spark a fiery dialogue that's as potent as our weed. Michiel Huisman's "screen charm" isn't lost on us either, as we debate his contribution to Snyder's universe and the punchable-ness of his face.
As we hurtle through the podcast cosmos, we don't just stop at Snyder's world; we envision our own 'what ifs' for "Rebel Moon." Imagine a movie that keeps you guessing until the final credits, a story where the robot's personal journey would have rightfully stolen the show. So, if you've ever craved a podcast that discusses storytelling with as much passion as a cinephile in a midnight release queue, you've found your tribe. Join us, the High n' Dry crew, for a conversation that's equal parts critique and inebriated bantering.
