Alternate Ending...
Theory... maybe spoilers
I didn't expect much. But I laughed the whole time.
Incredible animation. Terrible movie.

I agree. It's one thing if the entire movie is Twin Peaks / Mulholland Drive. But it wasn't. The first 95% of the movie was pretty standard plot line stuff. The entire style changed at the end with Giganta showing up. I'm suddenly trying to place symbolism and... ahem... giant metaphors. Very odd.
But aside from that I liked it. It wasn't overly woke. Usually lesbian heroes seem to be Mary Sues who can do no wrong. I liked the steroid angle and the effect it had on the relationship.
I liked the epic fail on assuming the exploding car would burn out overnight. But this movie didn't really pick a lane and stay in it. It went Lord of the Rings meets Pulp Fiction meets Marvel at the end.
You have to think of it as entirely software. And this software has been hacked. The agents are the anti-virus software. It seems simple to me.
Ishido ends up captured and buried up to his head. He lasts three days before dying. Yeah, I wish they would have not yada yada'd past that. He was the villain the whole ten episodes.
How did this guy not go to jail?! Did he not defraud any of those minors (not that all the kids were minors...) with the loans he had them take out just to pay his program?
My theory: whatever you experienced first is better. I liked every book I read better than the movie until I read Bourne Identity. What a slog of a book! The movie was way shorter. But my brother told me I was crazy. He read the book before seeing the movie.
Same with songs. Van Halen's You Really Got Me - I heard that first and fell in love with it. Then I heard the Kinks original. I thought it was lame.
+1 - The Shining is the only one I agree with, just because the movie is so much scarier. The book is a better plotline arguably. The Dead Zone, Mist, and Stand By Me weren't even close as far as the detail goes in my opinion. And Misery... SO toned down. Breaking his legs with a hammer? Please. In the book she sawed them off and cauterized them with a torch. Annie was a savage in the book. And what she did to the cop...
And The Running Man - it was more like Harrison Ford's The Fugitive than the Arnie Swarzenegger clown show. That has to be the all time worst King adaption. Absolutely nothing like the book. Lawnmower Man is right on its heels.
Did you happen to catch the dialogue with the priest? It was the one where he confessed to having homosexual thoughts. Don't worry, it seems the whole internet missed that part too.
I think it was pretty clear through his confession to the priest that he was having sexual urges towards Padraic. This wasn't acceptable in the community, so he ghosted him in a most violent fashion.
Unfortunately you can't expel someone for being suspicious or potentially a future criminal. And very few, relatively, parents are available or prepared for home schooling. This problem is far more complex.
All you need is the giant number and the crypto is yours. That's why they're so guarded.
