How to exploit the feature
"There will now always be a movie mission which can be completed with the energy you have left."
This example will be based on a 3hr movie (2000 movie points)
As you all know, the way to do well in the movie point temple is to get your movie points as close to 1999 as possible and then hope you get a great spawn for the last 3 missions. In other words, you want to go OVER the 2000 as much as possible. In the past, you only got one shot at this and if the last 3 missions were all low movie points, you had to accept that. The new feature BBE added changes all that because it creates the opportunity to re-roll your missions while slowly creeping up to the 1999 goal.
Here's how you do it:
Just do your movie missions at first as you usually do. When you get to around 1800, ALWAYS make sure your movie energy is ONE more than the mission you choose to do BEFORE you launch that mission. For example, if the mission you want to run is 6 energy, wait until you have 7 energy before you launch it. The whole point here is to ALWAYS have only one energy left after running your mission.
This will now spawn a ONE energy mission and 2 random ones. If you like one of the random ones, then pick that one BUT make sure you don't launch it until your movie energy is ONE greater than the mission.
Why do this? Well as you get closer to the 1999, the random missions might not be large enough to give you that many points over the 2000. In that case, you just run the ONE energy mission, making sure you wait until you have TWO points of movie energy. This will get you a very little bit closer to 1999 but it will also spawn a new set of missions, including another 1 energy mission. As you keep doing this, you creep ever closer to 1999 until you have the right mission for you to go over 2000 as much as possible.
Basically, the 1 energy mission is a free roll.
IMPORTANT: If you do this, you have to micro manage your movies because you never want your remaining movie energy to be greater than ONE after you complete a mission
NOTES: The one energy missions seem to range from 9 to 14 movie points so keep that in mind as you approach the 1999 goal

Not just because it needs to be fixed if they left themselves exploitable but also because if it's something intentional meant to be a factor in the current temple.
