Same here. Terrific movie and sequel.
Strobes? Meh.
Apparently, you're not sensitive to that stuff. Good for you. (Most people aren't, actually.) The small number of people who are sensitive to that stuff can have some nasty reactions to it. I'm sure they appreciate the warning. The rest of us can watch the movie in peace.
So the “girl power” plot didn’t ruin it? I’m on the fence about seeing it, especially with Disney getting my cash.
The first one was nearly the perfect movie. If it needed a sequel, it should have been ten years ago.
