    Right?

    Stop being so fucking lazy. If you want to have high stakes, create situations that are believable for the characters. Instead of having a tank ram into a car at high speeds, rolling a dozen times and have the main character not be hurt (also in this movie).

    Have something realistic. Have her break her leg or get shot and lay incapacitated reservoir dogs style.

    So annoying. Everything has to be so scaled up. Why did the Red Room have to be a floating castle that blows up and falls down? Why can't it be inside a CIA base? That's more realistic and way more interesting as a plot line.

    I guess this is just movies now. I don't know how you can escalate from the world ending every movie.

      And they're just increasing bloat by saying that there are all these shadow wars happening. Secret agents. Magical covens. Extra-dimensional monsters. Like I get that's how comics are, but you'd think people would be bumping into people more often.
