Gone With The Wind

Everything Disney did with Star Wars

I know this is heresy but any Godfather movie, or the Sopranos, or anything that romanticizes the fucking mafia. To me organized crime characters are pieces of shit I can't admire or relate to. The only movie that ever made me root for gangster types was Pulp Fiction, which is a masterpiece.

Can it be a director?

The dark Knight is the only good Nolan movie. And Heath carried all of the weight

Avatar. Good Lord what bad acting and visual dynamics will do for a movie.

9. Closest I've come to walking out of the theatre. So disappointing after the great short, which they took and just animeified

Eternal Sunshine if a Spotless Mind has such good reviews and people speak fondly of it online. I hated it, just thought both characters were insufferable, and there was nothing remotely romantic about it. Felt like I was trapped in the bad relationship with them.

If The Sopranos was boring, what you’d get is The Godfather. It’s boring. And it insists upon itself.

I’m gonna give the opposite answer than you want. I feel like most movies recently are like that but some I had to get into the right mood to enjoy them. The first time I watched the new top gun I thought it was garbage propaganda then I gotta into jet sims and think it’s an awesome movie. Same with mad max fury road, thought it was trash until I watched 1-3 then 4-5.

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.

Absolute snoozefest with possibly the worst cast leads in modern history.

Oppenheimer.

3 hrs of nausea-inducing quick cuts

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.
