  • Terminator Terminator: Dark Fate > Terminator 2: Judgment Day > the rest
  • meh at: Alien(s), Goodfellas, Infinity War, and The Thing
  • The Lord of the Rings trilogy is pretty boring, but I should maybe give it another chance before writing it off
that's all I can think of, for now

Friday the 13th is super mid, even for slasher films, and a lot of the '80s slasher films with weaker reputations are much more fun or interesting, like The Mutilator, Madman, Blood Rage, and The Slayer.

That's a cold take.
I wouldn't even call it mid, F13 was always bad from the word go.

Nah, F13 is definitely considered a better movie than the ones mentioned. They're just wrong. I guess the hotter take would beem specifying The Mutilator, The Slayer, etc. as good.

I think that movie is not meant for everyone. It's definitely in it's own world, and there are very few movies that approximate the feel of rural American high school in that late 80s period.

Lots of gritty dramatic movies about high school in the early 80s... lots of flashy rich 90s high school representation in California, but Napoleon Dynamite has this very nostalgic feel, despite not specifically being set at any stated year.

If you can't relate to that feel and time, I totally get it.

I don't think it's a bad movie, but Scorsese's stuff is heavy on the narration/PoV stuff, and I just didn't like Ray Liotta as Henry Hill, so that went a long way with my enjoyment of the movie.

I ended up liking Casino a lot more.

Many of the great dramatic films of the classic era (30s and 40s especially) were made by people who excelled in comedy. It turns out that occasionally making the audience laugh while telling a story works really well for dramas because it gives them a human warmth that a lot of films lack. John M. Stahl is certainly a good filmmaker, and there are quite a few gems in his filmography, but there's a reason his best movies aren't as well remembered as those of Frank Capra or Howard Hawks. You don't have to squint quite so much to enjoy them. They just aged better.

I still like comedy but not just dumb comedy is this a hot take? Dude Where's my Car and those spoof movies in the early 2000s I hated those. Not another Teen Movie!

I'd rather play CastleQuest or some garbage nes game than watch those.

I love that movie, but you've gotta admit the back half feels wildly unfocused compared to the first half.

Introducing Ray's wife as another superhuman, even by the end of the movie, felt like it didn't go anywhere

Batman 89 is still the best Batman movie even with its flaws. Jack is still the best live action Joker and we need more classic clown prince of crime Joker instead of philosophizing super dark Joker.

Temple of Doom is the best Indiana Jones movie.

A lot of the older dumber James Bond movies (Diamonds are Forver, Man With The Golden Gun, A View To a Kill, etc.) are still good. Just campy.

Came here to say this. It's fine, but not among the GOAT movies like many put it.

Batman Begins is boring. It's just a crime drama which incidentally happens to have a man in a mask. Where's the fun in that? I'd rather be watching Heat.

EON should abandon the 007 franchise. They're so apologetic about the sexism, racism, and homophobia of the old films that the James Bond name has become a liability rather than an asset. They're better off to introduce a new character and market them as being, "From the studio that brought you Casino Royale and Skyfall..."

I feel if done right, they could go back to the 50s/60s and have Bond be a gritty, flawed hero. Would take some masterful writing to make him come off as an asshole, but still likeable.
