It gets its release in the US next week.
I haven’t read the book, but from what I’ve gathered it’s a political nonfiction book. I don’t see how you can adapt that into a movie, unless it has a biographical portion I’m not aware of. Wikipedia says it’s a heist film, anyway.
What would the movie even be about? A positive portrayal of eco-terrorists? I’d love to see it, but surely they couldn’t get away with making a movie like that.
The movie is about a group of people sabotaging a pipeline. There.
I plan to watch it and hope it's good. It's tiring that so many people on this website just have this idea that everything is bad or that it's cool to not like anything.
Assuming things will be bad and made in bad faith because things have been bad and made in bad faith means you’re just pretending to be cool :so-true:
like OP said,
hope away but I don't think it's reasonable to expect it to be good or even think it's particularly likely that something like this could get funded and be good.
Judas and the Black Messiah was directed by someone who wanted to portray the Panthers more accurately and more radically, but he said the studio forced him to edit things out and add Jay Z for the soundtrack lol
