WTF is this? Ineptly stealing iconic scenes from the original classic film. Some might call it homage. It's garbage.
Watching this makes me wish the writers had stayed on strike, indefinitely. That's the thing. This generation of writers and directors and producers are, as a cohort, lame, i.e. Lacking talent. Or, as I heard one Wall Street pundit explain, there's only so much talent to go around and it's spread very thin across all the media. That might just explain it. With all the outlets screaming for content, they are inclined to produce and present all sorts of crap. It's a veritable crapeteria.
Then there's the barrage of ads every few minutes on FX. I record and zip. Even so it's disruptive. Maybe try the Peacock model. Gimme ads up front then STFU.
