![]() ![]() ![]() It has a Star Wars vibe in parts, like the "royal" wedding scene and the space battles, but there were no good characters to experience this adventure with. I really wanted to care about this universe. Why not have more of them? Oh we're just going to focus on the playboy brat now, okay. It's not worth trying to piece together every plot point they throw into the movie because it will just lead to confusion and disappointment, and eventually frustration when you realize how much potential was wasted in creating this massive universe.
