For me it's Gravity (the one with Sandra Bullock crying in space) and the last two Nolan Batman films. I just don't understand why people like them so much.

Nah man, see... you didn't watch it right.

First time I saw Gravity I was high as fuck on edibles and watched it on 42" plasma screen.

Shit was like the best 90 minute theme park ride of my life lmao

Also, the part where

spoiler

George Clooney jumpscares you by inexplicably returning from space and popping open the hatch to the spaceship

blew my goddamn mind ahaha

I watched it on my 120" 3D projector (while also high as fuck) and still hated the film.
Weed and a giant screen couldn't save that shitshow of a film.

because it's porn/fan service.

Gravity was a 2 hour 'omg going to die in space' porno.

Are you including the dark knight there? I though that was the best of the three.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

See this is what I'm saying. Everyone praises Dark Knight, so I went in all excited to see what the hype was about, only to leave the film thinking "this is it"?

It's not a bad movie, per se; I think the problem is that the hype had set my expectations sky high, and I don't think it could ever live up to expectations, no matter how good it was. But honestly just about every scene that didn't have Heath Ledger in it had me falling asleep on the couch. The cinematography was good (especially the IMAX shots) but I just wasn't interested in the plot.

I'm here with the nolan movies, but i thought the first one was the weakest of them. And by weak i mean it was pretty ass.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

lol Batman Begins is the only one of the three I like
