But the interwebs have been a-chatter with the movie you see here, the first out of the gate in 2023.
(And to prove people are eager to see it, that drive-in in California that I can't stop writing about has it playing as both halves of the double feature on two different screens.)
The question about M3GAN, produced by Jason Blum and with a story by James Wan, is whether it is more derivative of this:
or this:
Of course, plot-wise, it would be the former. But just because it came out more than 20 years ago, don't think we've forgotten about this Al Pacino classic also named after a female AI with numbers as part of her name.
The odd thing is that even though M3GAN's title has that 3 in it wherever you look, on IMDB and elsewhere, the poster itself does not. Or in any case, you can't tell whether it's a 3 or an E. In fact, it looks more like an E. You have to see the movie discussed in print to realize that of course it's a 3, because they couldn't resist.
Shit, now all the scammers now that we replace the E's with 3's in our passwords. (My current work password has a couple E's that are 3's.) People named Megan in particular need to get on changing those ASAP.
