• Jim Kelly dying in Enter the Dragon lowkey messed up the movie for me. What a waste of a dope actor/character. (With all due respect to Bruce Lee)

• Hayden Christensen wasn’t that bad as Anakin, he just got stuck with a lot of terrible lines. No actor could have made some of that dialogue sound natural. It wasn’t Hayden’s fault.

• Marvel needs to quit playing and come correct with the Fantastic Four and X-men. It was cool to focus on the B and C-listers when they first started, but now that they have the rights, it’s time to get back to some real characters.

• X-men First Class is a well made movie on a technical level, but the :mjpls: tendencies ruined it for me. Basically every mutant who wasn’t white or a dude ended up turning heel with Magneto in the end.

• practical effects >>>>>> CGI

• The OG Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) is a top 5 comic book movie of ALL time. You can tell those people really did their homework on the comics and had a genuine love for the turtles. :to:

I think I said this in one of umpteenth unpopular movie opinion threads but Back to the Future 3 is the better of the BTTF sequels

Yea that movie is surprisingly better than it should be. It was dark and mature for a kid's movie

"There Will Be Blood" has absolutely trash cliché characters and a boring by-the-numbers plot. It only got buzz due to excellent acting performances and try-hard cinematography and score.



p.s. - I feel exactly the same way about "Legends of the Fall"

"Million Dollar Baby" is a horrible B-movie that would have been trashed as ridiculous nonsense if not for the stars attached and political pandering
