Sequel Talk- Sequel stuff

Oof, that's a tough question, mostly because I fully believe that I will probably come to appreciate Volume 2 more as time goes by.

That being said Volume 2 was a huge letdown from Volume 1 (The Sorcerer is the best ST episode, fight me), whatever momentum we got from the first 4 episodes just didn't carry, Will's storyline still remains the strongest of season 5 to me even if the coming out scene was clunky.

The finale was actually not bad, Vecna's storyline was powerful and giving him that moment of where he unapologetically owned up to who he is and didn't accept the redemption Will try to give him was a top moment for me. I didn't mind the final fight but the space was empty and we definitely needed more enemies instead of them just walking up to the mind flyer.

I did very much appreciate the almost hour long epilogue, it was nice to see everyone actually have time to tell us what happened to them since they were so many characters that needed the time to move on.

Overall I gave the whole season a 7 out of 10, I think it holds up to what Strangers Things is and has always been but I legit don't think the Duffer Brothers knew what to do with the staggering amount of characters they had and the military plotline was the weakest part and honestly if it had been cut nothing would've really changed.

If you have time, I would definitely recommend watching this video. I agree with 100%

Are you telling me no one has broken down the 17 seconds teaser to figure out every miniscule detail we can get (there's at least 2 scenes being teased there)? If someone has, I need someone to link me if not I can do it myself but I can't until Wednesday.

My long hair theory? In absolute shambles, what do you mean Taylor cut his hair for the sequel? What do you mean I don't get long hair Alex? Hate it here.

-Matthew couldn’t return to direct and it’s probably a timing issue, I’m guessing the studio was unwilling to wait for him to be available because the wait time for the movie is already stretching too long.

-Timing on the article suggest pre production has started and we’re probably waiting for NG to finish filming his current movie, meaning filming will probably start early next year.

-I can see this having a tight post production, meaning it might premiere at the tail end of 2025. I can totally see Amazon making this into a holiday movie. If anything else no later than June 2026 as Amazon is probably hoping for a repeat at the Emmys. A December release would also coincide with the Golden Globes and if it’s a slow year…..

-Gemma Burgess was probably brought in in conjuncture with Jamie Babbit to tighten/polish the script since they’re worked together before.

-Jamie Rabbit is a fantastic director, the sheer fact that she directed the pilot to Only Murders is already incredibly iconic. The fact that she agreed to direct the sequel speaks volumes of how excellent the script/story must be.

-interesting that neither NG or TZP got producer credits (unless I missed it) since Taylor said they were consulted about storylines.

I don’t ever moved on from things lmao, anyway I still keep up with him on Instagram and yes the hair I know.

Back? I don’t know, when fun stuff happens I’ll be here but I can’t promise anything besides that.

Im good, life is good, I might have a boyfriend???

Girl same, but at one point I ran out of stuff to theorize and then I developed a life????

They have somehow managed to find the director to make this the gayest movie to ever exist.

Mmmm...... not me coming back from the shadows because of this.

WME is a mess and a half and I am puzzled/intrigued about all this.

Here's a Link to my initial write up on WME and the timeline of Taylor leaving for a different talent agency.

That post was written on March 29th, 2024, so a year ago. How time flies, what the actual fuck.

I was a whole different person back then but I digress.

So anyway, Taylor did sign with WME and Anonymous Content right after TKB blew up, makes sense but as I say in my write up WME has a big "packaging" issue and that's where Taylor might've gotten bitten and one of the reasons he left.

My concern with this is that WME is going to yet another big shake up, Silver Lake one of the big investors of WME has stepped up and bought the whole thing outright so they now have power and they made the company private once again.

Also Ariel Emanuel CEO of WME, has now stepped down and it's now an executive chairman to the company, I'm sure Silver Lake would like to take him out altogether but he is the founder and probably owns a good chunk of shares to the company and it would be bad optics to find a way to kick him out.

Honestly looking at the articles, essentially the entire top of WME is about to change and I have no idea if that's for better or for worse.

When in regards to what that means for Taylor....

It doesn't look like he was happy with Paradigm, Booking Info tells me he had 3 agents with Paradigm and it is likely that he has trust/confidence in the agent leaving for WME, that he decided to follow them regardless of the talent agency itself. This is also what happened with his managers if I remember correctly.
