    Can he make Baby into something other than DEFAULT PROTAGONIST? As someone who didn’t find the romance convincing in the slightest or Baby interesting outside of his driving, I don’t really plan on seeing the sequel. The action, the soundtrack, the editing were all great (and to be expected from Edgar Wright), but god damn the characters were boring (and in hindsight Kevin Spacey’s grooming of Baby is even creepier).

    Also, Baby’s real name is Miles. Sonic already made that joke with Miles “Tails” Prower.

      Continues Wright’s female characters being rather lacking as well. Debora was not deep. (Still irked at the Ramona mind-control thing, too.)

      I’d be far more interested in the sequel if in the meantime, Baby got into a disfiguring accident and after surgery came out looking and sounding like... almost literally anybody else.

    I bet everyone is glad a certain famous actor’s character didn’t survive to the end.

      Jamie Foxx’s character wasn’t that bad...

    It needs to be said: Baby Driver is overrated. The soundtrack was great, but the rest of it was meh. First thing I thought of when I watched it was “This is like The Transporter.” And The Transporter was better.

      It wasn’t a bad movie and it kept me entertained for two hours but yeah, the hype it got was way overblown.

      The first half was one of the best movies I have ever seen.

      And then the second half of the movie...

      The wheels fell off.

    I would like to get back on the saddle very shortly, because—slightly beyond my control—but there was four years between The World’s End and Baby Driver. I don’t want it to be that long again. I would love to have a film out in the next two years.

    Hm...what could have happened in the middle of those four years that stopped him from making a film?

    I cANT think of anything -MAN, that’s frustrating!

    I can’t wait to see what part Christopher Plummer plays in this!

    Finally saw Baby Driver over the long Thanksgiving weekend. For the life of me, I don’t understand the appeal. I found Baby annoying for the most part.

    Baby Driver, not a superhero movie? He has amazing driving skills (for no discernible reason), amazing driving luck (how convenient that two other red cars were right there as he approached that overpass), he can read lips (explained in-universe, but still), and wins the heart and faithful love of a literal Disney princess-level beautiful woman by smiling shyly once or twice. Also, he’s an orphan, and we’re supposed to unambiguously root for him despite the large body count he helps rack up... Sounds like a superhero movie to moi.

    Easily my favorite movie of 2017. Not sure I need or want a sequal though. But if he made one, I’d probably see it. Edgar Wright hasn’t disappointed me yet.
