The most predictable thing happened :marseywait: as Francis Ford Coppola's MegaSLOPolis bombs hard. Gets D+ cinemascore as well :marseyunamused:.

Every cringe thing you heard about the film is true as well. Some unfortunate theater wagie :marseymcwagie: has to ask Adam driver's character a question so that they can break the 4th wall and talk directly to the audience.

I've seen it

>The modern/ancient rome setting isn't nearly as cringeworthy as I expected, I actually think the basic premise could have worked well

>There's very little in the way of plot and it's not artistic enough to get away with it

>It doesn't really work as a "so bad it's good" movie, there's a few funny moments but you can just look it up online and get the same experience

>It feels like Coppola went through 1000 different iterations of the storyline and couldn't give up random elements from each version, rather than trying to make a kind of anthology film

I don't really see it as a modern version of the room, more like showgirls - it will be forgotten about except for a few contrarian video essays "why megalopolis is actually Coppola's masterpiece"
