Ask Lemmy

I hate that movie too, but because I read the book and it was great. they completely ruined all the story and worldbuilding to make it a shitty feel-good movie for tweens.

Nosferatu, the one that just came out, is very well done. It's also just Nosferatu: Again.

I was very bored watching the movie because it's the same story I've heard before many times. Those 2 hours and 12 minutes dragged hard.

Donnie Darko.

It was so overhyped back when it came out because the OG hipster crowd of the early 90s thought it was cool, as did younger people who valued things that were “indie” as if that inherently adds value.

Dune

Boooooooring

I strongly agree with you OP, about Hollywood. They can't put actually ugly people in the movies so they try to act like someone is ugly when they are a complete stunner.

Another thing, in movies and TV shows they keep saying "you look tired", to actors who look competely normal and really good. No difference at all from their normal looks. And yet, they keep doing that shit. Once you think about this, you get annoyed every time it happens.

Ok my movies are:

Oppenheimer. Such a boring movie and everyone loved it.

Gravity. George Clooney is a charming clown in space, doesn't fit the story at all, and everyone liked it.

Probably more, but those are the absolute top rated ones that I don't agree with the public on.

Poor Things

I saw nothing but praise for this thing and have no idea why. None of the characters are relatable, their take on female empowerment is creepy and gross, and almost every male character is either evil or a simp. This is like a weird fourth wave feminist Frankenstein porno.

Literally every thor movie OTHER than Thor Ragnarok. They're just stale and full of lore that I don't care about, also the older ones are so dark I can't see anything. Ragnarok is SO funny to me and I was hoping Thor: Love and Thunder (the sequel) would be like that too but it was just too lore heavy for it to really latch onto me :(
Perhaps I just have the brain of a 12 year old that laughs at a guy getting hit in the head with a big rubber ball but like I'm in the movie for a good time, not note taking 😭

Ragnarok and Guardians Of The Galaxy feels like fun short story books that's like 200 pages and has images while the others feel like the 4th book in a series that's like 500 pages each.

that being said I know hardly nothing about the marvel universe past basic stuff, so it's probably just me 😅
(also I don't know box offices, I just know what my peers opinions are on them)

Tropic Thunder

I bought the DVD on spec, as everyone seemed to love it and I was going offline for a couple of weeks.

What a dog that was. Gave it away by bitching about it and waiting for someone to support it.

I honestly can't stand the vast majority of popular movies. They also keep getting longer and longer, and I already struggle to sit through an hour and a half long movie
