I think Netflix's Death Note is better than the anime.

the second season of the wire is the best one, 4 and 5 are shit.

Star Wars was never good

The Princess Bride is trash.

Boring equals better?

emma myers is beautiful. so what if i am indian

Villeneuve's Dune is better than Lawrence of Arabia, which is a story about a gay manchild's fancy being abused.

Also, Dune has a much better soundtrack than people give it credit for. You're listening to the wrong version.

The Thing (2011) is a good movie.

A movie can't be "bad" if it's enjoyable enough.

dune is just star wars for movie snobs
every time i see someone unironically praise it I die inside

Great film The original oldboy fight is better but there's no nuch wrong with the remake

It's honestly not terrible but it should've been a miniseries, not a 100 minute movie.

Guy Ritchie deserves to get a Bond film before Nolan. Would be way more kino.

Procedural dramas are trash.

not a hot take here but everywhere else it is
with extremely rare exception, cartoons/animation is completely incapable of replicating authentic human emotion, due to the level of over-acting that VAs put into their vocals to compensate for the animated faces not conveying emotion
every fucking time I see reddit and reddit-like places rave over supposed mature themes and storytelling it's always still characters screaming and being hyper even during supposed somber moments

Robocop 2 is the best Robocop because of nuke and the child gangster

You may actually need to have a high IQ to appreciate Bayformers (ironically) because lesser minds seem to have trouble "tracking the action" in these films.

I don't know what's going on!

Who is who? I can't understand who is punching who?!?!? HALP!

If you have a high IQ, it's usually not hard at all to understand what's going on. Did one of the autobots just jump into the air and transform mid-air and then slash the decepticon before transforming back into a car and driving off? Yeah no problem, if you have a high IQ, you tracked that whole exchange without an issue. It's the dummies who couldn't understand what just happened and are scratching their heads.

Being obsessed with pajeets is almost as bad as pajeets themselves. Absolute low class garbage behavior.

There are hundreds of great movies coming out every year, and the only reason you think differently is because Anon Babble is packed with doomposters that don't actually watch any of them.

hundreds

name one

Willem Dafoe Ryuk and black L carried it but Light and Misa were awful. It's tough to say though because the anime was retarded in many ways as well.

People are too retarded to keep track of releases, let alone have a developed enough taste to know what to keep an eye on and what not. Dumb retards need spoonfeeding and because that ain't happening anymore (media woke and blablah) they throw a tantrum.

I thought that was Murdock from The A-Team in the thumbnail.

Snowtown makes the michael rooker serial killer film look like a pussy

This month alone is absolutely loaded with VOD releases

Black Bag

In The Lost Lands

Mickey 17

Alto Knights

A Working Man

Ash

Havoc

The Rose of Versailles

No country for old men is still the best film of the century.

defends woke garbage

opinion discarded

It was all awful but dafoe

In the last month alone:

The Penguin Lessons

Ne Zha 2

The Alto Knights

Black Bag

Opus

Work on your reading comprehension, smoothbrain.

100%, I'm always hearing "I had no idea about this film" from people who don't watch TV and use adblockers, as if Hollywood should be breaking into their house and telling them what's coming out soon. If you claim to love movies, you just need to take it upon yourself to check the local listings occasionally.

It's Star Wars but better

and?

true for 1 and 3 at least

your standards are rock bottom

A24 produce mostly good stuff

I bet you haven't seen any of those movies

How?! Stupid retcons, trash cgi, adds nothing to the story

Yeah, let's pretend you're so above it all, you utter pleb. You have neither taste, nor anything interesting to say about perhaps anything at all. Philistine crybaby scum.

We have truely reached the age where trolling and being retarded is no different anymore & people will usually believe the first thing they fucking read without 2braincells goin on, bleak future

it was alrdy bad 20years ago, but there is no hope left now

True. Luckily I'm a bit of an OCD fag. Had a real fun time explaining my boomer dad the other day why I don't care for AI skimming through books for me.

hot take Anon Babble related

90%+ of actors have a twin or sibling lookalike, the requirement for making it A list

Hot take for movies

Disney recasts Luke Skywalker

Lilo & stitch faithful adaptation causes Tangled to be a faithful adaptation

Nolan will inject his signature Man v Time in Odyssey and it will be shit

Check

I think coolsville sucks

90%+ of actors have a twin or sibling lookalike, the requirement for making it A list

Unlikely.

Disney recasts Luke Skywalker

Likely.

Lilo & stitch faithful adaptation causes Tangled to be a faithful adaptation

Possible but depends on Lilo & Stitch numbers.

Nolan will inject his signature Man v Time in Odyssey and it will be shit

Likely but I think the movie will be solid.

Carlito's Way is better than Scarface.

I HATE RDMoore and what he did to 78's Battlestar Galactica.

retcons

nooooo not muh sacred John Carpenter kino how dare you get a detail wrong that literally no one but autismos noticed!!!!1111

trash cgi

the cgi is not that bad

adds nothing to the story

It's just a movie. You watch it for enjoyment. Although I did like the bit where they explored the alien ship for a bit.

I like Roger Moore's Bond and I find those movies incredibly enjoyable. Total comfy campy kinos.

Matrix 4 is grossly underrated

agreed

If you have a higher iq you notice that the transformers look like metal wires strung together and are actually creepy

Star Trek is meant to be watched while high. Star Wars is meant to be watched while drunk.

Alex Garland is a good director.

Ridley Scott has not gone senile.

Chris Hemsworth is an underrated actor.

Spectre is the best Craig Bond.

TV should stop taking itself so seriously and go back to 20+ episode seasons a year. The budgets are also simply a joke at this point.

Every single Ridley Scott director’s cut only makes its respective movie worse. Yes, even Legend.

Street Fighter is legit good. Fuck all the haters

literally every indie movie is good

a shocking number of them were good around 2011-2015 but TDS ruined cinema even before covid did.

watching festival slop in 2025 is fucking embarassing

No, it's Star Wars for pseuds.
