There's more than 1??? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Along the same lines, all those lame sci-fi ones that cater to teens/young adults like Invergent/Divergent/bla bla bla...too many to mention but luckily I don't remember their names. Ugh.

Many Marvel ones, maybe the odd one was good.

Anyone who likes the SW sequels should be shot on sight lol. Many ppl were making a big deal about whether Judge Dredd should remove his mask when the more obvious topic was that Kylo Ren should've kept his on the whole time - once he took it off, the mystique was gone and he was no longer menacing (probably the biggest arc in movie history turning a total badX character into such a loser emo. Incredible how they destroyed that cool character.).

Armageddon (Deep Impact was much better, like how many freaking times are they gonna keep repeating 'man, that Bruce Willis is such a HERO, he's sacrificing himself for humanity and hence will die!' I GET IT! LOL. Such a contrived movie.).

Many, many more, but can't be bothered to remember right now, perhaps later.

Nope... eye-rolling cringe-fest till the very end.

To be fair I find most comedy shows cringey... there's very few I actually like (seinfeld, the office (my all-time favorite), etc)

Lol holy shit. I was actually going to say do you not like dry comedy like Curb instead of the soccer thing. Love all those.

I do wonder if TL benefits from TV being overall total shit right now.

Whoah. Don't you dare say anything bad about Curb Your Enthusiasm if that's what you're referencing. I love that show!

The Twilight movies.

That could be one explanation.... But I'm just not sure.... Either everyone is high while watching TL, or people have transitioned into preferring dumb humor over dry and/or intelligent humor. I can't really put my finger on why I find something like Seinfeld or The Office absolutely incredible, but something like TL an absolute cringe-fest.

Looks like the "movies you loathe" thread that just started yesterday (I think) got blended with this long running thread.

M5Rick · 12-18-2021, 05:18 PM

Eyewitness. Catching up on these older movies this one has William Hurt and Sigourney Weaver riding pillion on an R75.

F30lolz · 12-18-2021, 11:01 PM

I went to see the new Spider-Man movie and it was great! Oh, I don’t want to spoil it for everyone but Peter Parker is Spider-Man.

studio54 · 12-18-2021, 11:12 PM

Watching Gomorra, and waiting S05E9 & E10, the final... will see what happens

Sedan_Clan · 12-19-2021, 02:22 AM

Watching the new Spider-Man on Firestick.

Damn you!

Watched Gone Girl again last night, last time saw it in theaters in 2014. Still one of my favorite Psychological Thrillers, easily one of David Fincher's best films.

Agreed. That movie was foking superb.

M5Rick · 12-20-2021, 05:23 AM

Time of year to say who your fave actor/actress is of this time, mine is Bruce Willis the king of cool who just pips it from a few others who came very close.
I remember Bruce on breakfast tv here a while ago being interviewed by a dopey couple who couldn't understand his chilling out answers, when he said it was probably jet lag they looked at each other astounded and ooh'd.

I just can't do it. The quality of the movie is as important as the movie itself. Those damn CAM links drive me nuts! LMAO

How many links did you go through to find it? I looked Friday night. There were 18 "links", and all of them were mislabeled. I had Netflix, Prime, some weird anime pop up, etc.

I was going to look again tonight.

Night Teeth is the name of that damn anime that pops up as everything it isn't. Comically, we tried several movies on cinema lately that were all that damn movie. We finally went from cinema to Netflix, clicked on a movie and I'll be damned if it wasn't the same into. Found out the name of the movie though.

ramman434 · 12-20-2021, 01:05 PM

Man, it was driving me nuts. Out of the 18 labeled for spiderman, I think that Night Teeth one popped up about 8x

That Rosamund Pike is quite the talent, her performance in "I Care A Lot" was amazing also.
