Eh, it's alright for what it is. It's a sequel that's mostly enjoyable and entertaining. And feels like classic Burton through and through. Catherine O'Hara and Michael Keaton are also obviously having a lot of fun.

The original script for the Matrix had the machines use human brains for data processing, but the Wachowskis were told by the studio to simplify it.

Oh, didn't know the one with no color in peripheral vision, that's fun!

I mean we hear the sound of our blood rushing through the veins of our ears at all times, but our brain filters it out. That the "sound of the ocean" you hear when listening into a conch, it just amplifies the bloodwaves. Other fun stuff our brain does: Our eyes are actually perceiving the world upside down and with a blind spot right in the middle.

About 100 million. Probably more, since they had a whole thing with animated episodes to tell the lore already produced.

Oh, absolutely. But it shows that nothing will change unless capitalism in its current self-destructive form is destroyed.

That's why I really like the Mass Effect universe where humanity is more of an underdog species. Same with Babylon 5.

This is capitalist society in a nutshell though, isn't it. "I don't care if anyone else gets to see it, as long as I can still see it."

I mean, several books by Stephen King have actually been written by the mountains of coke and rivers of booze he did, as he has no memories of writing them.

I mean, technically everything from TNG onwards would be NuTrek and Kelvin-stuff would be NuNuTrek, or rather Re-Trek, since it's a reboot.
