Death Day Sequel | Unexpected New Universe Construction

Madie 2022-04-19 09:02:30

The first one is just a popcorn movie to help our tired urban beauties enter a state of mindless relaxation. The second one actually minimizes the horror and funny clips and forces a parallel space-time concept... and it seems that this posture is to create it by yourself The constant proliferation of new stories in the concept of the universe shows his ambition and courage. After all, who would have thought that there would be a second when watching the first one...

Closer to home, the viewing experience is still very smooth, but there are inevitably some small bugs.

For example, why does the other Ryan have to use killing instead of explaining to solve the space-time problem? After the heroine travels through, where is the other heroine in that time and space? It was the roommate who was killed and the heroine who was in the cycle. If the heroine didn't go to the hospital to die, how would she cycle? In the end, the heroine returned to the original time and space. Has everything in the time and space not changed?

There is also a bug in the film, where the instrument was confiscated. The 15 minutes seemed to be added for the sake of adding, deliberately creating contradictions for the characters and promoting the plot. In essence, it was just a farce that had nothing to do with the theme.

Of course, we can regard the breakthrough of Death Day 2 as a whim and a brave attempt by the director and screenwriter. I think this is an imperfect attempt. To be honest, I was really surprised to see such a sequel, and I unconsciously had a good impression of it. The bugs in the second part were caused by poor thinking or inexperience, and they can be fully recovered in the third part and make it more mature. However, considering their intention to make it an ip, it's repulsive. So probably won't watch the third one.

    A botched version of the "don't dwell on a stagnant past" motif, the mother role is betraying the nature of this maternal space. It's a pity that in order to continue the puzzle-solving structure of the first part, it did not hesitate to destroy the "endless daily" feeling of such themes. The setting of the parallel universe not only weakens the "dream feeling", but there are too many sci-fi stalks. It has become a house gas, and the gap is too large. Easter eggs are new, and it would be nice if you could play a different type every time.

    I didn't expect to be able to seamlessly connect with the first one, and even fill in the hole. This second one should be the most serious and careful sequel of many horror movie sequels.

Happy Death Day 2U quotes

  • [at the lab, Tree explains the situation to the group. After she writes the equations on the board, they prepare Sissy]

    Tree Gelbman: How much longer is it gonna take?

    Ryan Phan: Thanks to your crazy memory, it shouldn't take long at all. I can have Sissy ready to go in just a few minutes.

    [Tree nods. Then she recalls she needs to warn Lori and say goodbye to her parents]

    Tree Gelbman: [to Ryan] I need a little more time. There's something I need to do.

    [Tree heads for the door]

    Ryan Phan: Tree!

    [Tree stops in her tracks and turns back]

    Ryan Phan: You sure you want to go back?

    Tree Gelbman: Can't spend my life living in the past. Got to take a leap of faith.

    [Tree leaves. Ryan ponders for a moment over what Tree said, then he returns to work on the compter]

  • [Tree goes to her sorority house. As she arrives, Lori comes out, on her way to the hospital]

    Lori Spengler: She finally rolls in...

    Tree Gelbman: Uh, Lori, hi.

    Lori Spengler: [chuckles, noticing Tree's dishevelled appearance] Big night?

    Tree Gelbman: [grunts] You could say that. Um, look, Lori, I...

    [pause]

    Tree Gelbman: It's good to see you.

    Lori Spengler: [chuckles, puzzled] Wha...? It's good to see you, too, Tree.

    [while Tree fumbles for words, something catches Lori's attention, and her smile fades. Tree follows her gaze and sees Gregory leaning on his car, looks annoyed. Lori sighs sadly and lowers her eyes]

    Tree Gelbman: He's not worth it. I mean, trust me. I've been involved with a married guy. I know what it's like living a double life. Always feeling like shit about yourself. But it's never too late to change. Someone once told me that "every day is a chance to be someone better." Maybe this is your day.

    [Lori listens to Tree intently]

    Lori Spengler: [smiles] Okay. Thank you.

    [Tree hugs Lori. She feels bad for killing her in the original dimension, even though it was of self-defence. She has grown to like Lori in the past weeks she spent in this dimension, and hopes she can save her]

    Tree Gelbman: Take care of yourself.

    [Tree leaves. Lori sighs, then goes to the hospital. Tree enters the sorority house and heads for Danielle's room. She knocks on the door, but no one answers. She enters the room and sees Danielle dressed in a nightgown and a robe]

    Danielle Bouseman: [surprised] Tree...

    Tree Gelbman: Hey. Um... look, Danielle, I feel really bad. I've totally been misjudging you, and it's completely on me. I am so sorry that I've, like, made this...

    [suddenly, Nick comes out of the bathroom, wears only a towel]

    Nick Sims: [smiles] Nice... three-way.

    [Tree realizes that Danielle cheats on Carter. She muses that maybe Danielle is not much better than the selfish bitch she is in the original dimension]

    Danielle Bouseman: [embarrassed] He's kidding.

    Nick Sims: No, I'm-I'm not.

    Danielle Bouseman: Nick's, um, shower was broken, so I said he could use mine. Right, Nick?

    [naturally, Tree does not believe this lame excuse. Nick is so stupid that he does not understand what Danielle meant]

    Nick Sims: [puzzled] My shower's fine.

    [Danielle gives Nick a murderous look]

    Tree Gelbman: Right. Um, you know what? Never mind. Sorry for interrupting. Bye-ee.

    Nick Sims: Bye-ee.

    [Tree leaves, closing the door behind. Angrily, Danielle slaps on Nick's bare chest]

    Nick Sims: Ow! What was that for?

    Danielle Bouseman: For being dumb as a rock. That's what.

    Nick Sims: Oh, really? How can a rock be dumb? They don't even have brains.

    [Danielle gapes at Nick's stupidity, and slaps him again]

    Nick Sims: [annoyed] Ouch!
