BW’s Saturday Article Link> Blumhouse Takes Blame For M3gan 2.0’s Flopping?

In a rarity for anyone in the Hollywood system, Jason Blum didn’t go after fans or YouTube critics to blame and shame them for not seeing the sequel to teen horror hit M3gan, about a robot “best friend” who goes to murderous lengths to protect her young charge. The sequel went for a Terminator 2 type story where the villain of the first movie is the hero of the second against an even worse threat. It did not go over well, but the Blumhouse founder and producer actually looked at what THEY did wrong instead of fans to figure out why the second film didn’t do as well as the first. Horror isn’t my genre so I’m not the guy to ask. It still lost me at “hang on to your vaginas” and the robot’s more sensual posing but I wasn’t going to see it anyway. No, those are not blamed, either.
