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

    I hate 20th Century Classic that has been so impactful on film making that it suffers from the Seinfeld effect. Every aspect that it pioneered is just so cliched now in retrospect - how dumb were people back then to have been entertained by something pop culture has completely imbibed over the past XX years.

    I found the special effects to be laughable; especially the practical ones. How could you watch anything made before CGI matured to a decent level?

    Don’t even get me started on the actors. None of them went method and abused their fellow cast and crew in the name of art. Additionally the script did not past the Bechdel test which completely ruined any sense of realism that the characters might have been attempting to portray.

    20th Century Classic is just one example. There are hundreds of films that don’t even have colour cinematography. Pretentious people try to tell us black and white cinematography is “more dreamlike”, pul-lease! Why would you want to watch something that doesn’t look like real life? You might as well be reading a novel at that point - and the whole point of movies is to completely replace novels so we can consume stories more efficiently.

    Don’t @ me on any of this. Just hop on your penny farthing bicycle and ride off into the sunset to your hipster neigbourhood.

    blade runner 2049. It’s a crap story with crap acting and direction. The visuals are just bad. I have no idea why it’s so liked.

      I liked nublade but og is just a really shitty detective movie. Groundbreaking and fundamental for concept art industry and sci fi but as a movie meh.

    I was trying to think of one and was thinking I haven’t really experienced intensely hating a movie that other people loved. Then I saw someone comment Avatar… that was one of the most overhyped events I’ve ever experienced. I don’t care about the entire Marvel franchise, but I’m sure someone could convince me of their merits. No one’s going to make me see Avatar as anything but rehashing an old story with annoying 3D gimmicky visuals.

      This is a polarizing film. A bit like a live action cartoon.

    Most of action movie franchises, tbh: James Bond, Transformers, Mission: Impossible, Fast and Furious, to name a few

      I would argue that while they aren’t good, they are fun. I like to call them “shut your brain off movies”, and I totally get why people wouldn’t like them.

      Like Fast and Furious for example. It doesn’t have a good story, or writing, or really even great acting. But it does have some really great scenes of cool cars going really fast and sometimes I like to just sit and relax and watch that kind of stuff. At least up till like 5 or maybe 6. Then it starts to get a little too weird for me.

        I like to call them "shut your brain off movies", ...
        I actually have a name for those too. I call them "monke brain" movies/anime or whatever form of entertainment.

        I don’t mind them. I knew what I was getting into when I went to the theater I simply did not like that particular movie.

    More of a genre than a particular movie, but any and all video game movies that aren’t the 90s shitshow M•rio movie or the 3 live action Sonic films. I’m talking live action because there have clearly been good video games based animated films like… well I can’t think of any right off hand, but they surely exist.

      I thought the last Mortal Kombat movie was pretty good.

        Kano was good, Cole and Sonya not so much.

    I am not an irritable person, but the ending of the whale Made me get up from my seat and yell “OH COME ON!” To the screen; Frustrating, corny , manipulative misery porn.

    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.

      Fury Road was good. My only complaint is that Furiosa and Mad Max were probably the weakest performances in the film.

      Furiosa (movie, not the character) missed the mark by a longshot.

    A Complete Unknown. It was very long, and I just found Bob and his life a bit boring. Apart from the music, of course.
