ITT: opinions

ITT: shit opinions*
Citizen Kane
>>63784457
>>63783996
These movies are objectively good, you are just dumb contrarians
>>63784487
>this movie is critically acclaimed so it's physically impossible to not like it
What?
>>63784538
If you don't like these films you are a pleb. Which is fine, just be aware of it.
>>63784538
There are millions of people who studied cinema and have years of experience as critics but you know more than them?
>>63783996
Do you understand the meaning of cult film?
> A cult film, also commonly referred to as a cult classic, is a film that has acquired a cult following. Cult films are known for their dedicated, passionate fanbase, an elaborate subculture that engage in repeated viewings, quoting dialogue, and audience participation. Inclusive definitions allow for major studio productions, especially box office bombs, while exclusive definitions focus more on obscure, transgressive films shunned by the mainstream.

>>63784572
You are basically implying that Top 250 of IMDB is the objective list of best movies ever made.
>>63784648
No, I'm not saying that
Star Wars is objectivelly a bad movie and it's still highly rated
>>63784648
Surely you could agree that most of the films in that list, are enjoyable right?
Or is it once something is rated by the mass, you decide it's fucking awful?
>>63784604
Yes I do, I was asking about films that fall into three lists that you do not get the appeal over
>>63783996
Her
Gravity
Forest Gump
Boyhood
Cabin in the Woods
In Bruges
Seven Psychopaths
Goodfellas
Anything by Pixar
Whiplash is the worst movie I've ever seen
>>63784791
I can't believe people like you exist in real life
This has to be bate
>>63784791
>Seven Psychopaths
Nobody liked this.
>>63784791
>Seven Psychopaths
That was acclaimed?
Kids
It's just like a super edgy after school special with sex and nudity.
>>63785113
>smoking weed is considering "edgy"
lmao, do you live in some theocracy from the 18th century?
Crash
I Heart Huckabees
Little Miss Sunshine
Boyhood
The Avengers
>>63785171
considered*
not even trying to stir shit up, but I live with a couple guys who are really into Superhero movies and I've never understood the appeal of a single one besides Scott Pilgrim or Kick-Ass (which neither see as superhero movies).
every year just look at all the oscar nominated movies for blockbusters Avatar
>>63784791
Her, I saw the same thing on a 30 minute episode of the Big Bang Theory
Pink Flamingos
Interstellar
Aliens
Big Trouble in Little China
Se7en
Avatar
American Graffiti
Moon
Gravity
Halloween
Lord of the Rings: Return of the king
Back to the future
District 9
Forrest Gump
Saving Private Ryan
Young Frankenstein
Hugo
Children of men
The Shawswank Redemption.

Not the anon you're replying to but I think the edginess may come from the virgin-only-having-sex kid that has filthy blood and the last dude who has sex with a passed out filthy blood chick.
I still liked the movie tho
>>63785327
>Moon
But why?
>>63785242
>Scott Pilgrim or Kick-Ass
Both are superhero movies
>>63785242
Spider-Man 2 was the last good super hero movie. Everything else is just overhyped nonsense.
>>63785773
Is Super a super hero movie?
>>63785799
Yes.
>>63785773
The first Iron Man was great.
>>63785856
Would you say it's overhyped nonsense?
>>63783996
One of my favorite movies, but yeah, the plot is an incoherent mess and if you don't like character driven films you won't go for it
>>63785958
Not quite, but it's also not a good movie.
>>63785983
I thought it was really great, beyond action, beyond black comedy, just really smart and well made.
Pure dogshit.
Might as well put all Tarantino flicks but this one is the quintessential Trampolino.
>>63783996
But its not dogshit. Its extremely quotable with interesting characters, and is a fun unique movie.
>>63784791
>Whiplash is the worst movie I've ever seen
I can understand that you dislike it, but Her, Gravity and a good chunk of Pixar flicks are way worse than that.
>>63785327
>Interstellar
literally the only bad movie the list
>There are people who unironically think Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movies are better than The Amazing Spider-Man movies
Literally how? TASM and the sequel aren't even that good, but they're legitimate kino compared to Raimi's unwatchable cringefests. Is it just le epic nostalgia of epic epicness?
Actually on the subject of Sam Raimi, I don't get the love for the Evil Dead series either.
>>63784791

>Star Wars is objectivelly a bad movie
>>63786409
People selectively remember Spiderman 2, which makes every other spiderman movie look like dogshit.
>>63786409
>Hating on based Spiderman 1 and 2
Worth if for Dafoe and Molina
>>63786409
Toby is a good actor and he was a great Peter Parker. He carried those movies.
>>63786409
Evil Dead is cult gold.
I feel like an alien when I watch Fear and Loathing and Las Vegas. There's nothing wrong with it but I really don't get why people liked it so much.
>>63783996
American comedy is very childish OP, that's why you didn't find the movie funny.
America takes modern british comedy, then dumbs it down to a level a 12 year old could understand and ruins the jokes in the process. Americans are idiots raised by idiots, they wouldn't understand subtlety if it came up and bit them on the arse.
>>63784487
>implying that being a counter-contrarian is anymore justified
>>63786519
Did anyone in this thread actually say they liked the first Spider-man? I only saw Spider-man 2 mentioned.
>>63784572
>studied cinema and have years of experience as critics
>watch movies and talk about them
SUCH expertise!
they're essentially mathematicians!
>>63785175
>Crash
So much this. It's the worst movie I actively recall watching and when I learned it had won multiple oscars, I was really confused and upset. How could anyone think that was a good movie?
>>63786678
I felt like I'd wasted 90 minutes of my life watching it, it wasn't funny or interesting, it didn't have a message to get across. It was just Johnny Depp getting high.
Raising Arizona
Didn't hate it but I guess I just don't get it.
>>63786716
I don't think so.
I'd be hard pressed to call it a bad movie but the awkward dialogue really brings it down.
BONESAW and William Dafoe can only carry a movie so much.
>>63786716
Spiderman is ROUGH looking today, all the practical effects stuff especially with Green Goblin just looks really shoddy and laughable. It's still a decent movie but it's nowhere near the perfection of Spiderman 2 which still holds up today.
>>63786747
Something to do with the racial themes being really timely in the early 2000s.
>>63786409
>Actually on the subject of Sam Raimi, I don't get the love for the Evil Dead series either.
For me, it's Duke Nukem, when I was a kid I thought he was the man, until I found out all his catchphrases were stolen from Ash/Roddy Piper/the 80's
Also: tree rape
>>63786174
What'd you think of Citizen Kane? Pretty bad right?
>>63783996
Here watch this you tool, it'll explain why it's great.

>>63787103
Its still shit
Its the equivalent of a DUDE WEED LMAO film
>>63787499
I know this is bait.
It has the best dialogue of any comedy.
>>63787590
>It has the best dialogue of any comedy.
If I am baiting than you are prone to hyperbole
>>63787031
No, Citizen Kane is good.
What are you trying to say? Orson Welles is leagues ahead of Quentin.
>>63784457
Welles was a fantastic director. Kane wasn't his best, but he was like 24 when he directed it. Watch Chimes at Midnight or The Trial or Othello if you want good Welles
>>63784791
I agree with all of those, they are just mainstream lowest common denominator wanna be patrician or just out right Jewish cash grab schemes, like every Pixar movie for example.
>>63783996
I never understand what so good about this one.
The dude! lol so funny. Really?
Thats... your opinion, man. This is supposed to be funny?
My guess is, since I dont smoke anything I cant understand whats so good about it.
