Cinema movies are not as good as some folks like to say they are

And some folks love to CAP with it, act like they smarter or come off like they a higher class or better than other folks….. when most cases it’s much further from the truth :mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:

Let me piggyback off this one.

"Character driven" movies are usually massively overrated. Unfortunately, more often than not, it means that there's not a whole lot of plot. Also means that you're probably going to asked to invest in a "deeply flawed" main character, which usually just means they're a shytty person meant to "challenge the audience".

Rotten Tomatoes has ruined opinions on movies, and to an extent, had a negative effect on how and what movies get made.

I really enjoy Get Out, but objectively speaking, it's not as good a movie as it's made out to be. It was very much a case of being the right movie that came out at the right time. That said, it still might be the most effective tool ever in explaining the general discomfort of being the only black person at a gathering of white people.

I don’t mind necessarily “thought provoking” movies. I just hate the monsters they create.

There is a certain Stan base that get a little too pretentious and act like they wear top hats and monocles and all of a sudden they’re better than other people or their opinions….. let me repeat that…. OPINIONS are worthier than others….. whom they deem lower class.

Everyone talks about Friday 2 but the 3rd one is the better movie in no small part due to Mike Epps.

This: only good scenes in Next Friday are Pinky's and Michael Backson's... I have to be really hungover to digest this movie :scust: Mike Epps is cool but not funny enough to carry a whole comedy by himself, the mexican neighbors was, etc...

Friday After Next is hilarious on the other hand: Katt Williams playin money Mike :mjlol:, terry crews as Damon :dead:, the story n second characters are way better than in Next Friday n finally its a christmas hood movie

- Belly is ass besides a few good scenes...it takes a lot to watch the sorry ass story; X's (RIP) overactin' n Nas ( the GOAT) non-actin ass :scusthov:... Its like these two nikkaz sat everyday with hype williams n talked about how they wanted be portrayed in every scene: Nas as the wise street cat that is above material things n X as the crazy ass hood nikka that nobody better test

:camby:

- Wolf of all Street: cant rewatch this shyt, it tries to hard too hard to be edgy n cause a reaction.... Leo the GOAT tho

Toy Story 2 is the best film out of the franchise.

‘03 Hulk is the best version to be depicted on the big screen. A dive into the psyche of Banner and mainstream audiences weren’t ready for that auteur direction. MCU’s is a fukking joke and I hate seeing Ruffalo stoop down in that role after seeing him in films like Zodiac.

Super agree on Hulk. CGI still holds up too imo, which amazing for when it came out. I saw it in theaters when I was like 14 or 15 with some cousins who were in their 20s and they thought it sucked because he never said hulk smash. Shoulda known then the kinda direction Marvel had to go to win, but I hate it.

I enjoyed Blade: Trinity :hubie:

Anything with Jennifer Lawrence is an instant skip:hubie:

The crime Trinity committed is there are flashes of a much better movie all through out it. Dracula lore shyt is dope, how he respects and dapped blade over all the other vampires, blade riding off in the night and the voice over calling him a weapon and how the war never ends? dope. I even love that RZA thirst track. Them trying to launch a new franchise, a lot of the comedy shyt just rough. A more experienced director (It was Goyer's first time directing iirc) and maybe a couple drafts and it could have been special. It takes a lot of knocks because it came after two really good films

Mike Epps has never been funny.

Ever.

I wish I could give you a thousand daps for this. The hate that Kevin Hart gets should be directed at Mike Epps. Dude is the black Dane Cook. Just corny and loud, but has never said or done anything to make me laugh. I can understand why most comedians have a fanbase even if I don’t like their material, but Mike Epps is a mystery to me. The fact that people willingly pay money to see him perform is mind boggling to me.

The last great horror movie was "Tales from the hood"

I still can't watch that shyt without feeling antsy.

Rocky 3 is the best Rocky.


Yall may not like that, but oh well.
