These Post-Credits Movie Scenes SUCK!
3. Vice - Fast And Furious Looks Lit
It's hard to watch a film like VICE and not exit the cinema with dents in your skull, such is the sheer heavy-handedness of its themes. Oh wasn't it clever to show that Cheny has no heart by literally showing him with an open chest during his surgery, OH HOW DEEP, HELP I'M DROWNING IN ALL THIS SUBTEXT.
The film doesn't so much spoon-feed you its messages like the little boo hoo baby that it thinks you so clearly are, but actively forces its arm down your throat for fear that you won't get all that tasty rich MEANING without it doing all the work for you. So of course its post-credit scene is also completely dripping with DO YOU GET IT YET YOU !*$% STUPID PIG, and it details a focus group who are now reacting to the movie you've just watched in a meta-fourth wall breaking manner.
As two members of the group from opposing sides of the political scale begin to argue in a manner similar to every YouTube comments section, they begin to brawl on the floor, and for a moment you sit there thinking "Ok fair enough, there are stupid people on either side of the coin, and maybe if we acted less like our politics were sports teams and looked to build bridges instead of burning them, maybe we'd be able to have a discussion about these moments and not resort to name-calling and violence"....
...but then this happens.
Another member of the focus group, seemingly ignoring the chaos states that she can't wait to see the new Fast and The Furious film, before calling the franchise...."lit"
Oooh. Feel that? that's your !*$% spine inverting from the pure unadulterated cringe. This is what the director Adam McKay really thinks about you, it's not about politics, it's about his idea that we're all too stupid to address the elephant in the room. Well done friend, you've passed sociology 101 and we're all very proud. Now if you could actually add something to the conversation rather than wheeling out your Year 10 art project of a mirror with "Society" scrawled on it in sharpie that'd be great.
