Adam shines some light on how 1998’s Mask of Zorro represented the end of an era. 1999 was a big year for CG and with it came a whole new paradigm for how Hollywood created blockbusters. Abe is there as well.

Wonderful piece mailman! Nice assist John Stockton! Man, I really wish Robert Rodriguez hit the directors seat on this one. That would've been magical. I can't get enough of this series you guys. Love ya.

The director negotiation sounds effing awful.

The second matrix did have one big set piece, right? Didn’t the build that like 10 mile stretch of highway for that car chase scene?

Adam Ganser

Great point. That really elevates the sequel into the mega-movie tier where money sort of stops mattering because of the guaranteed returns. But thanks for the reminder.

You can even argue the casting of Banderas, as great as he is, is also whitewashing. Banderas is Spanish, not Mexican. Last I checked Spaniards are still considered white (unless we’re gonna start being REALLY racist again). So this was kinda like casting a British person to play George Washington when you consider the Zorro is typically cast as fighting for Mexican Independence from Spain.
