You are nonspecific in the beginning of this movie as far as like when exactly the movie is set,
00:04
but for yourself, how detailed did you get as far as just the timeline of events between war and kingdom?
00:10
Yeah, a couple hundred years is what we keep saying, you know.
00:13
It's just a thing where, you know, some people are like,
00:16
oh, the world doesn't look old enough, or the world doesn't look too old, or whatever it is.
00:21
So it's like it's better just to like do many generations later and let them kind of think what that means for themselves.
00:26
But for us, it's hundreds of years, enough time that kind of dark ages have happened,
00:30
enough has been lost, eroded, you know, and transformed, manipulated, you know, all that kind of stuff.
00:36
So that's kind of where we went, and we have ideas for like what sort of brought us to this point,
00:43
but it's really kind of fun just to drop right in the middle of this thing, and there's so much we don't know.
00:47
It just puts us in a good place to where we can just kind of rediscover a world along with these characters,
00:52
you know what I mean, rather than just doing that kind of direct sequel thing.
00:55
That was the choice, really, to get some distance.
00:57
It gave us a lot of opportunities, actually, and freedom, I guess, to kind of do our own thing, you know what I mean?
01:02
Well, even like talking with the actors, like, I mean, they are such rich characters,
01:06
but you don't kill us with exposition, like you don't give us everything.
01:10
We'll see if that works for people, but we chose to kind of do 2 plus 2 instead of 4, right?
01:15
To give people, maybe people lean in and kind of do their own interpretations of things.
01:19
Partly of that is just there's too much damn movie in it.
01:22
There's too much stuff, you know, but hopefully we found that balance where there's enough to get you interested
01:27
because we've got ideas where we can keep expanding all this stuff in the future if we're lucky enough.
01:32
But you're right. We tried hard not to, you know, to go in to hold your hand too much.
01:38
We'll see if it works.
01:39
Sure.
