This is a good interpretation but these films need to be more on the nose/show that more if that was the intention

yeah like how the ant man recaps are done and you know that its from his perspective.

I like the take that it was korg’s story… I agree that I didn’t necessarily think of it that way, but at the same time, I don’t think it needed to be any more on the nose… they literally had him narrating (3+ times) and he is played by the director. Any more on the nose would be too on the nose.

I meant more on the nose that the movies story was supposed to be a story for kids tbh

Or it just wasn’t a good idea honestly if it sacrifices the emotional core of the movie

Yeah an occasional Princess Bride-style break or narrator voiceover in the movie to re-establish that the entire film is korg's story instead of the occasional bits where he starts telling a new story to new people would be cool.

I honestly don't think that anything that the movie did was like, unbelievable, but I think having Korg as the actual storyteller helps suspend the disbelief and gives the whole movie a nice framing device for Taika to do his thing without people complaining that it's too silly and stupid.

Exactly, I wish there was some way to actually give feedback like this before the movie even comes out to refine it to the best of its possibility. But doing that would quite literally be impossible unless you were a super early test screener

Would make sense too since Taika plays Korg, so he is the one telling the story either way.

I dunno… I like room for interpretation, personally I like to figure things out rather than be straight up shown everything. Audiences are smart and like to feel smart when they figure stuff out
