I’ll go first. Mine is that I can’t stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It’s like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds
Can I do a TV show?.. I’m gonna do a TV show.
The Mandalorian is boring!
They should have called it “Shiny Boba Fett and Baby Yoda travel planet to planet doing stuff”.
It’s part of an ‘extended cinematic universe’ which is apparently a thing these days. So it counts?
Anyway, I love westerns and space fantasy, and The Mandalorian kinda combined them in an episodic way that I could basically watch forever. Although it did fall apart in season 3, despite the well-intentioned efforts to tie back to the larger Clone Wars arc.
Ok, I admit it soon got outmanoeuvred by Andor, which was damn good even if you’re not a Star Wars fan. But Mandalorian paved the way IMO for a good pulpy episodic series with no bloody Skywalkers or Jedi Council BS. So that’s a win, right?
Andor is so good.
The worst thing it did was introduce baby yoda. Stupid piece of shit, I want to punt that little twat. Minions-for-millennials-ass-bitch
There’s like 3 or 4 interesting episodes in 3 seasons…
I’ve never been able to get past the first two minutes of The Godfather
Different strokes for different folks, I guess. I think it’s one of the greatest films ever made because I watched it, not because someone told me it was.
It insists upon itself.
But seriously, 95% of the “classic” movies deemed so important are just not that good. They might have been remarkable for some reason at the time, but from a contemporary perspective, they’re often boring, long winded, and generally not interesting.
It’s the same with books. Some people decided at some point which books are considered “good” and everyone just has to eat that or be considered stupid. Can’t speak for other languages, but I think it’s extremely suspicious, that in Germany the “canon books” are almost all from a rather short timeframe, which just happens to coincide with 19th century nationalism.
Movies have that period in the 1960-80s.
I didnt hate it, i just thought it was too predictable.
Not controversial. You like what you like.
Now, if you had said something like “The Last Jedi is a good movie.” Well, that’s demonstrably untrue.
It LOOKS good, I’ll give you that. The salt planet with the red soil was inspired.
It’s too bad Rian Johnson didn’t get an average 5th grader to proof read the script.
For example:
Leia and Rey have this touching scene where Leia gives her this tracking gem that will let her come back to the fleet no matter where they go.
Then, in the VERY SAME SCENE, the New Order pops out of hyperspace and another character says, out loud, “they tracked us through hyperspace???!? THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!!!”
First - you literally just explained how yes, it was possible 2 sentences ago.
Second - Tracking devices have been a thing since the first Star Wars.
“TARKIN You’re sure the homing beacon is secure aboard their ship? I’m taking an awful risk, Vader. This had better work.”
No, I stand by the fact that it is a good movie. Just because it has some flaws doesn’t make it universally bad. It’s not even close to the worst movie in the franchise either. Rise of the Skywalker grabs that without hesitation (That outright is a TERRIBLE movie) but the Prequels are all significantly worse in both writing and direction than The Last Jedi. Revenge comes a lot closer and I’d say personally is tied with TLJ on coherence. George Lucas was a moron. He never had a plan but people constantly think he did. Within all three of the OT movies alone he keeps changing everything from characters to lore. The Prequels got worse because he had no one to temper him. That being said, this is about TLJ.
That being said, there’s no issue with the writing there in my opinion. Leia and Rey do have a touching moment, sure, but that was in the Force Awakens not The Last Jedi. Leia also straight up never gives her that bracelet on screen because JJ Abraams is a complete and utter fuckwit. The scene in TLJ is between Finn and Leia where Leia reveals the beacon to Finn. He asks how Rey would find us and Leia and shows him. He says “A cloaked binary beacon.” She says “To light her way home.” You are right in that the scene does continue immediately into the First Order tracking them but how they tracked them was completely different. The beacon tells Rey (and only Rey) where Leia is when tracked. But Snokes vessel outright tracked them through lightspeed itself. They didn’t check the location of her and then jump to her. They actively followed the fleet through hyperspace itself without needing end coordinates. This was shown later in the movie and Leia directly says it by saying "They tracked us through lightspeed.* Something that hasn’t been shown to be possible on screen.
Yeah. They’re in the same scene but that wasn’t an accident. There wasn’t people behind the scenes who were that monumentally braindead. That scene was written that way with the purpose of making people think that the two would be related. Now I will give you that it’s not well written how they use that throughout the rest of the movie but it was put there on purpose. It was to make people doubt Leia (supporting him through the Poe arc, which worked way too well despite the fact that he did not have a singular leg to stand on with his entire argument despite everyone and their mother thinking he was right) and seem like the clear and obvious fix. They completely dropped the ball there, I admit. But overall I didn’t have a problem with that scene specifically. Just how they used that scene. Especially considering that tracking device was never actually used. Seriously. They added in and then never really used it. I don’t know if it ended up on the cutting room floor or what. The intention was clearly to fuck with the audience because Rey doesn’t ever find the Resistance using that bracelet. She meets up with Kylo on Snokes ship and Kylo is the one who gives her the coordinates.
The logical writing progress would have been to have Finn doing his thing (that arc, I grant you, is fundamentally worthless. The whole casino segment is a waste of screentime and only manages to produce a couple of light gags which all focus on BB-8) and Poe advancing on Leias position during his mutiny. He gets to Leia and gets the bracelet, destroys it and they jump to lightspeed. Everyone breathes a sigh of relief and then the First Order shows back up anyway, having tracked them. Holdo has a scene of “I told you so”, probably just by staring at him without saying anything, and then everyone freaks out on what to do. Leia is still out and Holdo is in command so she decides to try and ram them with the last lightspeed jump of the cruiser that they somehow manage to movie magic in the last second from all the X-wings, life support, yadda yadda. Forcing the rest to evacuate to Crait. Movie continues on as normal.
The issue to me isn’t that the writing didn’t make sense. It did. My issue was that they expected the audience to connect too many dots on their own. Ended up with people making different connections than were intended. Too many things were left on the cutting room floor while stuff like that Casino segment was allowed to go on for way too long. Or the kiss between Finn and Rose which was just fucking bizarre. So much so that even Finn in that scene has a look on his face like “What the fuck are you doing?” But with all the issues that TLJ has? I still find it to be a way more coherent story and more interesting one than either of the first two Prequels. And Rise of Skywalker because that movie is idiotic. Like a good script doctor could have fixed it and made it a decent movie but they made so many weird fucking decisions and bizarre writing choices that literally nothing about it makes sense. What pisses me off is people then blame Rian Johnson for the problems of Rise too when half of that was on the studio for not being able to make up their mind on directors/writers (that movie has way too many writers) and the other half falls squarely on the fanbase for reacting as strongly and negatively as they did to the first two sequels.
91% of film critics agree it’s a good movie. That’s more than feel that way about Return of The Jedi. And way more than any of the prequels.
91% of film critics didn’t want to be on the wrong side of a rabid fanbase. ;)
The rabbid die hard Star Wars fans are very loud about hating that film.
Sure, but the critics couldn’t have known that when they wrote the reviews.
The movie was alright.
“Somehow the emperor returned” was terrible.
All I could think of when he said that was, Princess Bunhead in Thumbwars: “I escaped somehow, let’s go!”
“Somehow the emperor returned” was terrible.
Okay. Rise of Skywalker is a walking pile of dog shit that has a wildly inconsistent take on everything. However. I have never had a single problem with that line and I am stunned so many people did. That was a rebel talking to other rebels. Why, exactly, would they know anything about how Palpatine returned? Dude was on a planet out in the middle of uncharted space. I literally cannot think of another way for them to tell each other that Palpatine returned without evoking vague imagery like that. They literally do not know what happened.
I can only speak for myself, but it wasn’t so much the line as the hand-waving that came with it. It was more that I found the line relatable, but you’re right about it being appropriate for the scene.
“The dead speak! The galaxy has heard a mysterious broadcast, a threat of REVENGE in the sinister voice of the late EMPEROR PALPATINE.
Because it makes zero sense. What possible reason would Palpatine reveal himself. It’s not just against logic, it’s against character. Yes, that particular line was a rebel talking to a rebel, but it shouldn’t have happened at all.
Darth Sidious spent the first two movies cosplaying a senator. He is the titular Phantom Menace, as in “hidden”. Palplatine would absolutely stay hidden if everyone thought he was dead.
He stayed hidden during that period because it served him. He showed his true colors (literally) in the fight with Windu and dropped all pretense. He didn’t even try anymore in the Senate. Just went full authoritarian and made it all about himself. The next 20 years were no different. Fuck sakes, he was still cosplaying as a senator but openly running around being a Sith and taunting Jedi as seen in the clone wars show.
While he does keep a low profile when needed for his plans, he will kick open the doors and announce his presence when he is confident his plans have gotten to a certain point where he’s sure he cannot be stopped. Saying he would absolutely stay hidden 100% is to ignore a massive amount about the character.
The line is just funny because its a great tldr of the movie
Because it was just saying out loud what hollywood writers have been doing on movies for a while. “somehow this movie happens. Just pay us.”
The problem is the movie didn’t show him returning. Instead they’re just like hey Palps is back! With absolutely no lead up or anything. They should have actually shown the message or whatever it was he sent out to get everyone all worked up in the first place. Then that line wouldn’t have sounded so cheap.
It makes sense that the rebels didn’t know about it. It doesn’t make sense that the first the audience hears about it is that line. It feels lazy. They could have mentioned, in an offhand way, that the remnants of the Empire is pursuing cloning tech. Not only would this tie the final trilogy to the second trilogy. (First? Episodes 1-3, anyway) But it would also make that line make way more sense.
As as much as the Thrawn trilogy feels like bad fanfic, it does tie the whole clone wars/rebellion thing together, and features someone who comes back as a clone. I think it would have made a way better trilogy than what we got.
Remember when they snuck off on some escape ship to go get help for their crew in imminent danger and then decided to dick around on some horse racing casino planet? It’s like they completely forgot why they were there. I thought TLJ had some neat ideas but I don’t know how anyone can overlook that weird loss of urgency in the middle of the film. It’s like your house is on fire and your family is trapped upstairs, so you run over to a neighbor’s house to call the fire department, but you discover that they got some dog fighting thing going on in the backyard so you decide to go deal with that first, then you call the fire department but it turns out the dispatcher was in cahoots with the arsonist who started it in the first place, and then you return home with your tail between your legs and your mom didn’t even know you had left. The whole second act could have been a dream sequence and it wouldn’t have changed a thing.
Liking a film that 91% of critics gave a positive rating is controversial?
I think this is more popular than you think. Most serious SW fans appreciate Rian Johnson’s attempt to take the franchise somewhere it had never been before, storytelling-wise, and the shitty retcon-fest that was ROS seems to have made it better by comparison. I’ve seen plenty of people online say it’s the best aged film out of the sequel films.
Love TFA. Love TLJ. Love parts of ROTS but it’s… rough. Not a movie I’ll choose to rewatch without a really strong reason. Most of it is so disjointed. You can tell there were so many ideas that were cut from the movie and things that were put together in ways that weren’t. Then there’s that fucking dagger…
Weird you could replace the phantom menace with rots, dagger with “podracer” and your have another completely true sentence!
If you rip out everyone involved in the casino planet, you have a really cool dark and surprising twist on the franchise. The only really interesting things in the whole trilogy happened in The Last Jedi
Indiana Jones 4 is a great entry of the series. It’s just as slapstick and ridiculous fun as the rest of the series (I didn’t enjoy the 5th one as much though).
And yea that is an unpopular opinion, can’t tell you how many have disagreed with me as soon as I say that, both in real life and online.
Indiana Jones 4 starts to really fall apart on act 3, but the first two acts fit pretty well. I actually think the 5th is better than the 4th.
- Raiders
- Crusade
- Doom
- Dial
- Skull
Is probably my order.
My order is:
- Crusade
- Skull
- Raiders
- Dial
- Doom
Yea not really a fan of Doom… Too many boring underground scenes.
I agree with this ranking, but I’m actually tempted to put crusade and doom above raiders. IDK why, but I feel like raiders just has a few scenes I forget about just because they’re so slow moving.
The Last Crusade über alles. Connery and Ford’s chemistry is hilarious and touching.
AND the only suspension of disbelief visually is an old knight. It holds up so much better over time because the minimization of goofy affects the other movies have for their big bad.
Not to mention when the goofy effects do start they look cool as shit. The visual effect in the “He chose… poorly,” scene still holds up today.
I never met another person who like Eye of the Beholder, I really enjoy it. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0120662/
The Thirteenth Floor (1999) depicts a better story about simulated reality than The Matrix (1999) does.
I like both movies, but I think The Matrix has a billion times more spectacle going for it. I still think about The Thirteenth Floor regularly, but I’d rather sit down and watch The Matrix again for entertainment’s sake.
The thirteenth floor was a (pretty good) remake of the German 1970s movie “Welt am Draht”.
Mine is- the Marvel/DC superhero movies all but entirely ruined cinema.
Where I wrote of MCU was Wonder Woman. I liked the movie and acting, but the story was so dumb. I called out the antagonist from the first time I saw him. The story was the same as all the MCU movies, I realized, after it:
Here’s this unstoppable bad guy, here’s the main characters getting their ass beat by the bad guy, here’s defeatist attitudes that they can never beat the bad guy, main protagonist suddenly “believes” they can beat the bad guy, beats bad guy, and roll credits. Splash of some sort of callback end-credits gush scene, and end.
But Wonder Woman isn’t MCU…
Does it really matter? They’re so interchangeable she may as well be.
Superhero movies are utter shit, and I cannot understand why people like them.
My only exception is The Dark Knight. And Iron Man 2, because I saw it at a tech conference pre-release and won a computer at the event.
Found Scorcese’s Lemmy account
The first Iron Man is good. For me it went downhill from there.
You didn’t like the one where there was a bad guy and they fought the bad guy and then won against the bad guy?
Was that the one where a person/thing/object was thrown into a building?
Ohhhhh, yes, but I think you’re thinking of the other one. It’s the one with a few casual one liners.
Ahh yes. The one where the villain weaponized a glaring plot-hole and everyone was doomed until they figured out that they’d already covered this in a previous movie.
Agreed. Studios used to make loads of fun cheap films, now everything has to be a blockbuster CGI-fest.
I saw another comment saying it was a trend and temporary; that may be true but it has definitely ruined cinema for too long already.
I gave up after Tobey McSpiderman 2.
At least the first two Tobey McSpiderman movies were legitimately good, the problem was some studio exec went “LET’S MAKE NOTHING BUT SUPERHERO MOVIES FOR THE NEXT TWENTY-FIVE YEARS!” Sometime after the second one, I lost track of how many The Incredible Hulk movies they made, and then stopped paying attention. A very few have risen to the top since, including The Dark Knight and Deadpool, both legitimately good movies.
The last movie I saw at the theatre was Inglourious Basterds. Over the years, I’ve looked at what’s playing with dates and such, and…there’s nothing I want to see.
My favorite Mad Max film is Thunderdome.
That is definitely an unpopular opinion, mad respect though
It is hard to separate nostalgia from any rational opinions I have about this movie, since it came out when I was a randy and uninformed 15 years old. That said it had really interesting characters, a plot which I could follow and I especially liked the village of kids from the crashed plane. It had a Lord of the Flies vibe, but with a counter-narrative to the doom and gloom theme that humans will revert to barbarism, but also not an idealized, utopian vision of what would happen. Even Bartertown had an element of social commentary. It seemed to be offering different versions of how people would organize themselves if we wiped away current civilization and social structures. Which one is better? It does not directly make a judgement, but in some sense Max is fighting for what feel “right” to him in order to redeem himself for not being able to save his family and all the terrible things he has done in the wake of the disaster to survive. Honestly Thunderdome is one of my favorite movies.
Thunderdome is fun. But ranking it above fury road is a choice
/action Takes shovel and starts digging what appears to be his own grave.
I think Fury Road has amazing visuals, cinematography, practical effects, stunts and all that. But I really did not find the story of the characters interesting.Honestly it felt more like Fast and Furious than Mad Max.
I upvoted because the first part made me laugh. But I wholeheartedly disagree. Fast and Furious is legitimately stupid. I thought fury road’s story was great. “Concubines of an abusive king in a post apocalyptic world escape his clutches and mad max helps fight off their pursuers” is as good a concept as any. It’s not citizen kane but it’s also not supposed to be. It’s an action/adventure movie with really good performances and incredible visuals. The fact that the story makes sense and has a lot of interesting moments (like Max’s PTSD or whatever those flashes of that kid were) means it can’t be compared to fast and furious.
That’s fair, I may have been overly dismissive with the plot, maybe I need to go back and give it a second look.
Come back and let me know if you do. Even if you still don’t like it I’m curious how you would expand that opinion. When it comes to fury road I’ve been in an echo chamber. You’re the first person I’ve seen dislike it.
Edit: I hope at the very least you agree it’s not fast and furious though, I took that personally 😂
I went back and watched it and I see what you are saying about Furiosa and the concubines, it is a great device for setting up the chase. The chase then becomes the rest of the movie. Furiosa and Max have invincible plot armor during these chases and while I can appreciate the artistic skill in crafting these action scenes, I found sitting through them all a bit laborious.
The most interesting thing about the story to me was how Max and Furiosa went from straight up try to murder each other to becoming best buds. This happens so quickly and without a lot of explanation and to me that is a bit jarring. It seems to me the reason they dont spend more time on it is that the chase has already begun. And this to me is what keeps me from loving this this movie, they compromise on story in favor of chase and action scenes. While there is a lot to love about this movie, it is still not my favorite Mad Max movie.
Nice! I don’t disagree with most of what you said about the story except for not liking it. I really enjoy the fast paced action. I also don’t mind the story taking a back seat when the action is done as well as it is in that movie.
It’s been a few years since I’ve watched it (maybe before COVID) but to from memory I didn’t think they became best friends right away. They were trying to kill each other and the only reason why they stopped was because they were basically on equal playing fields and if they continued fighting the hoard would catch up to them without either of them escaping. They already had a common enemy, the only reason they were fighting was because Max wanted to GTFO and leave them, while Furiosa was trying to protect her homies. Once Max figured out he wouldn’t be able to drive the truck anyway and Furiosa realized Max won’t try to hurt her friends is when they started opening up more. For me, that’s plenty.
Another story centric scene I liked a lot was when they ran into the old women from Furiosa’s tribe. I forget it’s people acting in that scene, the pain and longing in Furiosa’s eyes is so tangible and realistic. Plus “badass old ladies” is such an awesome device and I think they did a really good job at executing that.
Thanks for coming back with a well thought out opinion. Like I said earlier, you’re the first person I’ve seen dislike it, but everything you said makes complete sense. I think it’s just a matter of taste and what we grew up watching. I also haven’t watched the mad max movies with Mel Gibson, I tried watching the first one after I saw fury road and I don’t think I got 20 minutes in. It didn’t even feel apocalyptic at all, like weren’t there cops😂? I’m sure it’s great but I was expecting 80s style “war boys” and something fast paced like fury road. I might go back and try again because I just realized maybe it shows the world fall apart and I am interested in seeing that. I just thought it would already be post apocalyptic and it just seemed like 80s Australia to me, my favorite thing about fury road is the world around him being so goddamn interesting and unique, never saw anything like it when it came out. And haven’t seen anyone do it better so far.
What is your favorite mad max movie?
At the top of every reddit “What movie should never be remade?” thread is the LOTR trilogy. Well… I totally agree the movies are great, but not quite timeless. When I rewatched them a couple years ago for the first time in a long time I couldn’t get over the feeling that it screamed “Filmed and directed in the late 90s and early 00s!” I don’t have the film knowledge to point out exactly what it is but something about the way it is shot looks very dated to me and hasn’t aged as well, in my opinion, as everyone on the internet says it is.
I really do love the music and the art style and sets and casting too. Maybe it doesn’t need a reshoot, but a recut?
The problem is no one is ever going to put in the work and prep production effort that Jackson and his team did. It could be made better and more modern, but will it in our current environment? No, all the practical effects would be replaced by CGI, all the armor and costumes for the tons of extras would just be CGI, the extras themselves would be CGI, and it probably would be packed with meta commentary and jokes. Just look at The Hobbit compared to Lord of the Rings. It doesn’t work without all the effort and pre-production, and I don’t think we’re getting a studio to ever make that bet again. It was pure luck we got it the first time.
I think part of it is that movies are edited differently now. We’ve become used to much faster pacing, much denser storytelling and sweeping drone shots of everything, so older movies generally feel a bit lame now
Man, hard disagree. Some of the CGI hasn’t aged especially well but those movies are technical marvels, the likes of which will never happen again because nobody will ever have the passion for the project Peter Jackson did.
CGI definitely doesn’t hold up, that troll in Mines of Moria, various Legolas shots, etc. are pretty rough. But everything else is still great.
On a side note I’ll always hate the people that decided to add all that CGI to 2011 The Thing when they had already filmed everything with practical effects. If I ever meet them IRL I will give them the most well deserved ass punch.
Side side note, still waiting for the practical effects version of 2011 The Thing to be released.
Some of the green screen shots could definitely use updating
This was exactly my thought… Some of the ent scenes are really rough now. Fantastic movies, though!
Tbh I think it’s kind of impressive that the green screen work is the rough part of the ent scenes. Treebeard himself is still really impressive imo. I had some of the eagle scenes in mind though
It still looks better than The Hobbit though.
The CGI is still a bit dated (although somehow The Flash topped that), but there’s far less compositing of solo actors in green rooms, due to forced perspective.
The original Blade Runner movie is not nearly as good as the sequel. The sequel highlights how lesser the original’s plot was. We overly praise the first one because of the Tear in the Rain Speech.
I wanted to downvote your stupid ass but op asked for unpopular opinions. So fuck you here’s an upvote.
Thanks, to be clear I don’t dislike the original. It does a lot of stuff good, like world building. But 2049 is actually structured with acts and has a main character who develops throughout the film.
I like them both a lot but the original is a classic I keep going back to. Maybe I’m just the right age for it.
It’s definitely a classic, it just seems like the parts with Ford in the middle of the film doesn’t really achieve much to me. I think a version of the film around Deckard chasing just Roy Batty (and not the others) might have been better. Hauer did fantastic work every time he was on screen he should have got more.
But maybe it was an artistic choice to include Deckard hunting the other replicants as a commentary on meaningless violence.
I have tried to watch the original like three times and I fall asleep every time.
Well, they were trying to stay loyal to the comic, but I can understand that. But I definitely about other movies copying, its cheap and annoying. Oh, and spy kids was actually good.
That’s what I’m saying. And yes, it’s shitty cgi, but they make it work.
The original Star Wars movies were probably really good and genre defining in the late 70s, but they’re just boring and campy now.
deleted by creator
Same with original Star Trek. I love Trek, but that shit is unwatchable. I read the novels to get the context to better enjoy TNG and after, I can’t hand the godawful sound effects and William Shatner’s smug mug. How are there so many episodes based around how “attractive” that man is?!
Nostalgia is a hell of a drug
I accept this. I saw these when they premiered- like lining up outside the theatre and everyone cheering, etc. That was in middle school and high school and it was a true experience at the time. So, I’ll always have a soft spot for them, but you’re basically correct.
This post is so confusing. Do I upvote opinions I strongly agree with or down vote them?!
Upvote things that contribute to the post, downvote things that don’t. Has nothing to do with like/dislike, or agree/disagree.
Totally agree with you!
Upvote since I agree with that sentiment
This is one of the things that killed the unpopular opinion subreddit, and made Reddit in general so annoying. The upvote/downvote is not an agree/disagree button, it’s for promoting valuable discussion and hiding the opposite
Upvote things you agree with, upvote well articulated but controversial opinions.
If everyone upvote things they agree with well just end up with popular opinions D:
Downvote 'em all!
Chaotic evil?
For these types of threads, I usually upvote things that are actually hot takes with some justification or unique insight. People that post an extremely popular decision or just insult something that a lot of people see value in get downvoted. Mostly it’s moderately common takes or unusual opinions with no elaboration, so I don’t vote on those.
I like this criteria. I’m using it.

In a “so bad it’s good” way?
I’m not giving “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey” a chance.
However, “Santa Claus Conquers the Martians” looks like a must-see holiday movie this year.
Santa Claus Conquers the Martians was done up by the MST3k folks, if you’re into that. Personally I’d prefer that experience over the original
It’s easy to hate popular things. Makes people feel edgy.
Most critics are frustrated artists.
Adam Sandler would be under a bridge smoking yabba if we went by his “critical reviews”
Right? Like totalky different context ;)
Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, etc are corney as fuck, but in a fun way. You can throw shit at the wall as long as you do it in an entertaining way.
My fave “movies” are random shit I made as a teenager or other random works of random auteurs.
I love low-production value, its just funnier and way more creative in a necessity type sense
I feel the same way about a lot of different art forms. I like stuff that’s janky with a lot of heart.
I don’t particularly care for gatekeepers or like Yelpers either aha
Bad reviews are my gateways into entirely foreign delightful worlds ;)
Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson are great, imo.
Adam Sandler sucks nuts and his movies are the dumbest shit ever made. And not funny-dumb, but annoying.
I regret that I am able to upvote this only once. I am definitely not in the target demographic for his style of comedy.
I prefer flam over flim.
