Some other surprises: how many pointless red herrings were in the film, and how obvious the &#8220;twist&#8221; was. Ishana Night Shyamalan has learned a lot of lessons about movies from her father. Unfortunately, it seems like she&#8217;s mostly learned the wrong ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Furiosa, again<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/furiosa.jpg\" alt=\"Furiosa menu bar\" class=\"wp-image-1408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/furiosa.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/furiosa-300x38.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ga2so.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/furiosa-768x96.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still fun the second time around. My only complaint: The projection in the San Francisco Alamo Drafthouse (in the smaller theater at least) was surprisingly pixelated. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who watches The Watchers?
