Comment on What wouldn't you have minded so much if it had only been executed better?

They Live - hailed constantly on social media as one of the greatest films in cinematic history, if not the greatest. The concept is fantastic, and the reflections on real-world propaganda and other forms of mind control are thought-provoking, but the only part most people remember and talk about, by a longshot, is the 6- or 7-minute alley fight about putting on sunglasses. My favorite scene was in a big room with a giant screen showing a galaxy, where business people were stepping onto a platform and apparently being teleported into space. What was the deal there? It looked like wealthy earthlings were doing business with a galactic civilization. I wanted to see where they were going. I mean I’m not saying it was a bad movie, just that it could have been a hell of a lot better.
