Yeah, nothing against Olatunde Osunsanmi personally, but the mere thought that someone actually got a “best director” award for this seems almost absurd.
It’s one of the few directors I’ve noticed in a negative way ever. Astounding.
Movie? Was there a movie?
Even Threshold won an Emmy. Perspective.
Yes but that was makeup I believe.
Yeah, for make-up. Detail.
"THRESHOLD" was infinitely better than SECTION 31.
At least this movie managed to have pretty much everyone agreeing on something. Quite a feat these days!
The director just won an NAACP Image Award for "Outstanding Directing in a Television Movie, Documentary or Special".

It probably won because nobody has heard of the other nominations. Maybe I am wrong on that being not from the US but the field seems weak.
He won the award, not the movie.

I do know of some unironic fans, including the CBR reviewer.
Honestly, I wouldn't mind a sequel. The cast was good and there were some interesting character setups. We could actually get something good out of it with a tighter script and (and, yes, I appreciate the irony here) maybe a different director.
Another movie probably isn't likely, but if IDW released a sequel comic I'd buy it.

How does one be an ironic or unironic fan? Surely you either just are a fan of something or you aren't, right?
Some people just like stuff in the "it's so bad it's good" sense.
