They weren’t confident after how well Control did?
I actually just watched the first half of this movie for the first time tonight. Had to pause it to let my dog out and now go to bed. Not sure about finishing it. That’s just me.
That movie is such a rollercoaster you owe it to yourself to finish. It’s just an accelerating spiral of weirdness.
Idk after a certain point the weirdness just becomes an excuse for tricking the Academy into giving awards to a movie that delivered half of its emotional journey through exposition.
And it worked, dammit, I DID want a refutation of nihilism told through anal dildo kung fu, it turns out.
Here’s what you do: watch act 1 sober, then when act 2 starts you pause the movie and take three big ass bong rips and press play.
I did not like Alan Wake 1 and hated that movie. Alan Wake 2 is just a GPU benchmark to me.
…I think maybe you need to play the first game again. And maybe American Nightmare.
What do you think The Dark Place was?
What did you think they meant by Ocean?
The first game is about >!Alan Wake slowly realising that while he’s saving Bright Falls, he’s also imprisoned at the bottom of the lake. He’s basically at both places at the the same time, because he’s written himself into the story.!<
