I need to actually watch it to have a real opinion, but all the gifs I've seen of Richard Simmons being an asshole don't make me want to watch it in the least bit

The Harry Potter movies are abysmal.

The samurai in The Last Samurai are the villains and Omura the industrialist the hero who frees Japan from feudal asshole overlords.

It warms my heart this thread was only two pages long before it died. Such poor takes...
I'll partake though: Alien is a good movie, but it would've been a great movie with 3-5 more minutes of action sequences sprinkled throughout the second and third acts featuring Ripley running away, hiding or fighting off the Alien.

I just finished Fallout Season two and it was boring.
Twisted Metal is the best game > TV/Movie adaptation.

I gave that season an A+ just due to Alexandra Daddario tits alone

The thread is about hot takes. Not just stating facts.

I watch 120 minutes of content in 2 minutes without spending a dime. Marketing departments cram all the best scenes up front to win opening weekend, so I stick to trailers only. Same highlights, 90% less runtime. On the rare occasion something actually looks worthy, I'll upgrade.

During a drunken debate I once unmasked a friend who couldn't explain his "love" of Lynch's movies.
I think there are a lot more out there pretending just to sound cool.

I liked his Playstation commercials, if that counts.

I think I'll actually finish all the seasons. I loved season 1, absolutely amazing, but once I hit season 2 they started filling the episodes with sex and a main character fondling clothing store mannequins. It felt like the maturity level dropped by 50%. How good would you say that the rest of the seasons are if 2 is the peak?

The whole series is great and well worth watching. Season 5 is probably the weakest with a somewhat implausible subplot, but again, still good television.

Daenerys did nothing wrong.

Shows made for that ratio must be watched in it. Gilmore Girls is absolutely gorgeous as long as it isn't in widescreen. The framing has so much thought put into it.

Pffff fuckin Joffrey did nothing wrong.
I watched that show. They had the technology.
A couple of wheels and a bit of chain.

Problem solved. No more whores with caved-in arses....
For the topic.
Kim bauer from 24 is the fuckin worst

He may have been a Royal c**t, but he was 10x the king that wet fart Tommen was.
Edit: 24 Kim gave us prime 10 Elisha though.

People focus on the twisted violence of David Cronenberg and Peter Verhoeven movies; they don't get the props they deserve for being masters of pacing.

Hmm, it's one of those shows that I loved as kid, it scared the pants off me, but I dread to go back to it now because I know it will be full of cringe.twin peaks is peak shit tv
There was nothing like it at the time though, with that deep level of mystery and pay off.

Batman Begins doesn't really hold up.
It's not bad, but some is just… not good.

There seem to be fewer sequels and franchise releases at the moment, perhaps cinema is making a comeback.

Jango Unchained is incredibly overrated, and Tarantino himself could have played a more convincing slave than Jamie Foxx.

Most movies of the last 25 that are "hot, hyped, or award" worthy, are trash, and Hollywood is Trying to empty our wallets on these projects by "favored sons and daughters". For whatever individual reason.

I still enjoy some of them but yeah lot of them just comes off as overhyped
Is it me or has there been a recent pattern of movie stars kids getting into acting? Not saying they are bad but
Maya Hawke
Lewis Pullman
Wyatt Russell
Just to name a few. They are pretty good at acting but I noticed that there's been a sudden influx to this type of nepotism in the past five to ten years. Back than it was just Colin Hanks and the Fanning Sisters. I just found it weird that's all

Denis Villeneuve Dune movies aren't good. Not good sci-fi movies, not good Dune movies.

I suppose there is something to say about nepotism vs. kids that kind of grow up in the biz knowing the routine of the job of an actor. Maybe they also have a solid foundation of seeing the classics from that viewpoint as well.

i'm a big HP fan but yes i somewhat agree with you. i am glad they doing the new TV show because it looks like they are going to be a lot more faithful to the books.
the first two movies are quite good adaptations but we already know season 1 of the new show is going into a lot more depth than the movie. it's going to be amazing once we get to season 3-6. movie 1 and 2 leave out small scenes with additional character/world building but movies 3-6 skip entire events and sub plots. movies 7-8 did a decently good job of the final book because they split it into 2 movies but they still left out a lot of things and ruined the final battle.
if everything goes well with the TV show it will be the definitive on screen adaptation by a long shot.
