Avatar. Good Lord what bad acting and visual dynamics will do for a movie.
any of the new MCU movies post-endgame. they were so generic, and it was clear some of the movies ran out of money on cgi or animation.
Guardians 3 was still good, I see it as the post credits scene of the MCU
The rest is boring to awful
introducing new content helps, rather than just promoting the next characther movie or show.
Probably getting some hate for saying this, but…. The Dune movies are some of the worst big budget movies I’ve seen. They look nice and the cinematography is awesome but that movie feels so damn empty.

A stressful two hours of screaming and bad decisions
That’s the point… We’re watching the spiral of a gambling addict. Its pure anxiety, and it’s done so well.
I get that but you are not convincing me that this is good
It’s good at what they were trying to do. It’s not enjoyable.
I guess its personal preference, it’s like eating food with a lot of spice. Some people enjoy the stress it brings.
Highly agree. The stress and anxiety is there for a reason. I actually hated it the whole time I was watching, but it was very much worth it. That being said, I don’t think I’d watch it again.
Anything that comes from Marvel. Overrated CGI tripe.
Even something like Iron Man 1 and 2?
I don’t like Iron Man 3 but 1 and 2 are quite enjoyable to me.I liked the original tobey maguire spidermans, but that was 20 years ago when they came out (and I was a teenager). I like them now for the nostalgia, not so much for the movie it is. And after those nothing really spoke to me. I went to see quite a bit of newer movies because my gf and friends do like them, so occasionally I give in and tag along for the company (I distinctly remember age of ultron and infinity war pt I for how bad it was, but the memory of some others I’ve seen faded the minute we got in the car home)
For me these movies all feel the same and formulaic. The stories are predictable, the characters flat and the edit is just too much focused on extreme visuals, spectacle for the sake of spectacle. I find many storylines very forgettable, to the point I even forgot that I’ve seen some movies before. In the edit, they are trying very, very hard to evoke emotions from the audience using tricks and tropes; but in the end it’s all a hollow shell, a cash grab without authenticity. At least, it feels that way for me. I understand many people love these movies, they’re just not my thing.
La la land. I hate that shit, I was happy when he lost the Oscar and I hadn’t even seen the one he won.

Hollywood is self-centered and loves movies about Hollywood. That’s really the only reason La La Land was in the running.
BladeRunner - is like they wrote the screenplay based on the excellent source novel, then cut most of the ideas out, leaving only things that make no sense. Rick Deckard is a terrible detective, and only wins the final confrontation because Roy Batty… just gives up? I recently decided that my teenage self might have been wrong and rewatched it… nah, still terrible.
The directors cut/final cut does improve the plot line but admittedly the original movie is more vibes than substance. I think a lot of the “neo-tokyo” cyberpunk aesthetic we take for granted had tropes which originated in this film.
