It looks maybe enjoyable but not good enough to actually pay for or go out of your way to see.
Calling things "meme things" is an old and forced meme.
You might as well post a fedora, or a cool face. Maybe say 'such quality, much movies' or something to really hammer in that you're a bad human trying to fit in somewhere

i dont care about op these were good films.
The question is what movies might you have missed (that were good):
Tomorrowland (too unfocused and tried to sell science to 10 year old girls)
Bone Tomahawk- shot on no money in California, somehow managed to get Kurt Russel to give the best performance since tombstone.
Pixels- just good fun, even though all they did was remake The Last Starfighter. the type of movie you could take a group of 10 year olds to and still have a good time.
Chappie: more good fun harking back to Short Circuit
American Ultra- comedy drama with a unique storyline. mediocre execution.
worst of the year, non children's movies:
San Andreas- the rock punches an earthquake
Jupiter Ascending- Differential equation boots and elf ears on Magic Mike Guy
Entourage- everyone looks 25 years older. all people involved with this should be gassed.
Ricki and the Flash- nothing rocks harder than a 65 year old Meryl Streep
Vacation- somehow they managed to make a comedy that completely lacks humor or warmth or any feeling whatsoever.

If you're not ideologically bonded with the board after 7 years then you've always been in the wrong fucking place. Just because you've been on /tv/ doesn't mean you are /tv/. There are many posters here with ingrained reddit sensibilities they don't even know about.

i've never seen that pic beforekek'd
>>63617268
There's nothing wrong with not having PHYSICAL books.
Eitherway, literature is one big meme. Films are a billion times better, and I suspect the reason for that is the amount of people involved in producing any one film, which help prevent "tunnel vision" from the creators to a much, much greater extent than in the case of books. Thus, even the worst 10% of the best films are more fantastic, more grounded, more emotive, more textured and more intricate than the top 0.1% of the best books. I would certainly consider someone with an extensive modern fiction library to be a red-flag: if it's old, then it could be a legacy. If it's non-fiction, then it can be informative. If it's new and fiction, then the person must not be very smart to be able to appreciate such low-quality work. By new I mean the age of the book itself, not the age of the script from which the book was copied.

"Fun" is what people say when a movie's shitty but don't want to admit it

I agree. I didn't like a single movie I saw this year. I'm saving Star Wars for next year and hopefully it's good. I'm just waiting for this year to end.

You fuckers just want to shit on movies for the sake of being negative. Granted, most of these movies were not fantastic cinematic marvels, but a number of them had decent redeeming qualities. Acting as if the entire year was an unforgivable waste because it had a run of flawed films that retained good qualities (say fury road for great practical effects, directing and editing) is asinine and childish to the extreme. You are the kind of people that would shit on Picasso for being a meme painter, or claim that Stravinsky was a hack of a composer because he followed a trend in modernist composition.
>>63620289
When the good outweighs the bad then the film is a disappointment. You could find something good to say about most of those movies but ultimately they're still overall failures.

Grasping at straws. The meme crowd hated those movies. I saw them both at the theater and each time fucking three quarters of the audience walked out half way through because they hated it so much. That's the opposite of a meme movie.
>>63622234
the meme crowd loves both of those movies. they're both reddit as fuck.

Nope. The numbers speak and it doesn't sound like love to me.

>Bone Tomahawk- shot on no money in California, somehow managed to get Kurt Russel to give the best performance since tombstone.
This was such a fucking shocker. I put it on expecting bad b movie and Kurt hamming it up. Unexpectedly the best horror and western of several years.
Deserves recognition.
I really liked Meme, The Meme and Memes.
>>63622632
It was the shittiest film I've watched this year, everything was terrible about it except Kurt Russel performance.
Bone Tomahawk is my favorite of the year, but I haven't seen many films I wanted to yet. Also saw The Revenant, but IMDb won't let me rate it yet. Gave it a 7/10.
>>63623788
>watching this much garbage
holy shit, no wonder you have poor taste
>>63623864
As a genre fan, I admittedly have to kiss a lot of frogs, but instead of making a blanket statement like that, was there a particular rating you disagreed with that you'd like to intelligently discuss?
>>63616117
Memes and reddit make your post seem superficial, when you actually have a point.
This is the worst year of the American commercial cinema I can remember of.
The movie crop is so awful it's actually terrifying.

desu i think we all agree on the jist of it though
i think you'd be hard-pressed to find people who disagree, outside of /lit/ (and desu i think even there it wouldn't be a one-sided debate)
books a shit
films a good
there's a reason films are a bigger industry even though it relies massively on plebs shelling out $10 a pop for 2.5 hours of entertainment
>>63616792
>Tomorrowland (too unfocused and tried to sell science to 10 year old girls)
And it bombed in the box office so now we won't get Tron 3. It still hurts.

I'm tempted to insult you for having cheeto-Mt Dew breath, reading comics, and playing WoW. I'll just be more reserved and assume that you are uneducated and from a lower-class family.
>>63616117
Ex Machina is a good movie if you ignore the kek parts, Fury Road is a good movie if you ignore the fact that it's not Mad Max, The Martian isn't half bad.
Yeah, the rest is shit and I'm afraid 2016 is gonna be worse.

What brings you plebs on here? Go somewhere else with your normal faggotry!
What actually makes something a meme film? Is it the overdone, winking at the audience, cringey post-modernism that prevents most narratives being told in earnest? Or that they aspire for their scenes to literally end up as memes? Do any of you even know?? Train wreck was totally GOAT tho. 2/10 hambeasts are my hnnnggg
>>63627827
The willpower of autists make it. Or, in many case, just one.
>>63627827
Personally, I think it'should when the director adds something that he thinks is a good idea that will be adapted by the audience
"What a lovely day!!" Is a good example of this.
They milked that so hard.
>>63616117
Movies, Television series and video games have all gone to absolute shit. I'm not just getting old, i got old a while back. There is a social agenda in anything with a decent budget now a days.
I am really sick of producers and directors deciding they serve a greater purpose in socially conditioning than entertaining. It is like i feel they thought they had me locked. Like i was watching because i had to. I watched because i was entertained.
Show after show and movie after movie are failing because of this, but they just keep trying. I have not enjoyed a video game since 2010 if i am being perfectly honest.
