Yeah I have seen that

I guess it depends on how much you hate his work

Some might view it as an homage or easter egg, while others view it as a straight rip off

Either way, it is too similar to be a coincidence

Surprised how much time and energy people devote to a horrible movie. It's over, move on.

That doesn't make any sense.

I liked TLJ and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

Look at your post count.

Honestly i hate TLJ and most of Rian Johnsons work, but i personally don't see how he ripped of Escape From LA in those scenes.

Nor should you be, it's just a movie. If it floats your boat enjoy it. thumbsup

This entertainment section with posts like this is just embarrassing at this point.

If I was as sad as that youtuber, I could make a vid called "James Gunn is a SUPER HACK" and re-edit his opening scene shot for shot to Raiders of the Lost Ark. Super easy.

Cuz he straight up ripped that off.


What a hack.

I'm gonna start a kickstarter to remake Guardians of the Galaxy.

Really helps make your point when you edit the source material to fit your narrative too.

Yup was going to say the same thing, If I hack up Raiders shots to match GOTG, and vice versa... I could make a super compelling argument they are the EXACT SAME SCENE.

But that's also why I love being an editor... it's next best to directing yourself... so much control of the narrative.

Aren't there already like 4 threads tangentially related to this nonsense already?

What are you going to believe? Your eyes or these guys? C'mon Paul, they have to get their message out! There are people on the internet who are wrong! About a movie!

That`s nothing compared to the fan fiction novel Johnson ripped off. He`s obviously a big Harry Potter and eighties music video fan as well.

That's, we Artists, are constantly doing: taking a lill' of that and a lill' of this...and voilà! A "brand" new movie, design, clothing, car, sculpture, idea, etc...The list is waayy to long:rolleyes

George Lucas was a super hack. Leni Riefenstahl told me so. So did John Ford.

Dead.... on.....

The hyperbole in that title alone dictates the creator is a moron.
