Joker 2
Ant-Man 3
I Saw The TV Glow
Leave The World Behind
Basically any movie-adaptation of a book. I know I’m in the minority on this, but if I wanted the story of the book, I’d be reading the book, not watching a movie that’s often merely based on it. A new spin on an existing tale is the best of both worlds imo.
Congo is one of my favorite movies of all time I can recite every line in it. It’s only got a 23% on RT and like a 5/10 on IMDb but I don’t care. I still love the fuck out of that movie
Usually the opposite is true for me these days.
i feel like it’s much harder when you finish a movie, and you hate it, and then find out it’s one of the most critically acclaimed movies of all time.
this was my experience watching taxi driver. to this day, i have not been able to find a single other person who disliked that movie as much as i did
I thought the Percy Jackson movies were pretty cool. I was very wrong
My problem is that most movies I like were never universally panned, they were just sort of so so. Movies like Fandango. I really liked it but I think it got like a 5.5 on IMDB.
Sisters Brothers. it has decent reviews when i look now, but it seems to have flopped real bad at the theaters. I watched it free on YouTube and was amazed by it, and then I looked it up and saw it bombed. $38m budget, $13m box office. Oof
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was my jam as a little girl… but it might just be because I ended up being bisexual and there’s a lot of beautiful and badass people in it.
Fun movie! Idk if I ever bought the DVD but I would always watch it when it was on TV.
Yes I remember enjoying this movie. I loved all of the characters from legends and stories, as well as all of its steampunk elements. It’s totally underrated.
Have you ever read the comics? Quick read, and vol 2 is a straight up banger.
Just had this experience with The Men Who Stare At Goats. Thought it was a good watch, like 6.2 on IMDb. Would recommend
I also highly recommend the book (and all of Jon Ronson tbh)
6-7 on IMDB is a pretty decent score, plenty of good movies in that range. If it’s 5 and below it means it’s right proper schlock.
Death to Smoochy, my dark comedy about the mafia world inside of children’s TV show is utterly fantastic and I will not be taking questions.
That movie is fantastic. I had no idea it had poor ratings. Just thought it flew under the radar.
I’ll never not like Waterworld
Like most, I totally disagree. However, it had such great potential.
I feel the same about Valerian. The imagery was pure eye candy and then I watched it, so looking forward to a great flick, and what I got was… Valerian.
It’s definitely a spectacle.
One thing I had to learn quickly was that my preference towards anything cultural was not in line with what my peers found good/cool, so I strode down the road of enjoying what I enjoy and let others enjoy whatever they enjoy.
Here’s a short list:
Roadhouse
The 13th Warrior
Both Ewoks movies
I actually liked sucker punch.
Seems like alot of people didn’t get the A B C B A style of story telling that it did. I get on so many arguments with IRL people over it.
A) real world beginning and end of movie. she is in an asylum.
B) In her mind she is elsewhere dancing to get items to escape.
C)her dancing is shown as boss battles because her dancing is her fighting for her life in her mind.
I still can’t decide if it’s a brilliant retelling of One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest or schlocky trash, but it sure is fun.
A little of both. I mean they ended the same.
I saw it in the cinema, left with mixed feelings. I should probably rewatch it
The Thing.
Critically panned when it came out, and my favorite horror movie of all time. Of course critics feel differently now, but far after its following grew.
Oh, same. Absolute favorite.
