It also hopes to capture a whole new audience with a franchise-first PG-13 rating. Or 12A if youre british mate…stand up. Today we’re going to be breaking down the film’s ending and what it might mean for future instalments. We will be doing a more indepth breakdown when the film releases digitally so make sure youre subscribed for that.

I absolutely loved how Dek made weapons out of the animals and plants he encountered on Genna. It definitely paralleled Dutch using the jungle as a weapon and I loved how he used that one eel as a makeshift shoulder cannon
