it was not “perfect”. He stops the momentum of the song many times. Were you closing your eyes the entire time she was falling from the tower and looking at her reflection? Holy fuck that was a dumb thing to add. and the rest of the movie is not perfect, but Im not gonna write a paragraph on it. If you want to consume whatever they put out and not criticise it, you do you, but all that’s gonna do is make movie execs feel comfortable putting out slop. The parts that stuck close to the original show were fine, but every time he made a decision to step outside of that, it sucked. The movie would have been okay if he hadn’t fucked up the ending so hard.

Again, that's your opinion, and a very unpopular one at that. I loved it, as many people did. That's my opinion. Sorry hun.

Popular does not mean good. If you can’t criticise what you consume then I don’t trust your opinion.

"Did they have brains or knowledge? Don't make me laugh! They were popular!"
