The reviews just dropped and it’s already looking shaky. Classic Blumhouse—only two settings: ‘clever reinvention’ and ‘sequel chaos.’ They did it with Happy Death Day 2U, and now M3GAN 2.0’s next.

I enjoyed this 2nd one way more than I thought after seeing the previews and the Chucky doll horror vibe to Terminator, over the top action hero tone shift. Couple of funny parts along with unbelievably silly, but overall provided a fun time.

Still have no idea how Megan can build a bat cave for two years unnoticed :pachaha:

It was what I expected of it. Good, silly fun. I don't know if there'll be a third but it was cool for what it is.

“We all thought M3GAN was like Superman," Blum said of his studio Blumhouse's approach to the M3GAN sequel, which saw stars Allison Williams and Violet McGraw reprise their roles from the original movie as a roboticist and her niece. "We could do anything to her. We could change genres. We could put her in the summer. We could make her look different. We could turn her from a bad guy into a good guy. And we classically over-thought how powerful people’s engagement was, really, with her."
During the podcast, Blum identified the movie's "genre-swap" — the first movie functioned as a horror movie with M3GAN as a slasher-type villain while the sequel pitched the bloodthirsty child robot as an action hero — as well as the decision to release the sequel in the summer as reasons behind the film's box office failure.
"We thought she could live in the summer, right? We thought, 'We're going from a little movie to a tentpole!' "
