I hope not, because that movie sucked.



Let's talk about movies that everyone seemed to love for some god-forsaken reason, despite being terrible.


Or get angry at people talking about a terrible movie you like for some god-forsaken reason.

    I thought June was hilarious.

    I should add that I went to see it having not slept in over 24 hours at the time.

    Juno was a pretty great movie. It was funny and had unique writing and good actors.

    Juno was alright. I thought it was a fairly sweet story that suffered a bit too much from IndieMovieDialogue-Itis.

    I have no problems with the actors. It was superbly cast.

    But the writing is like taking a seasons' worth of Family Guy pop culture references and a bunch of made-up slang terms from the latest Disney television movie and cramming them into a five minute scene, repeated ad nauseum.

    I admit

    I laughed at the "Thundercats are go" line

    Until I realized the Thundercats never actually said that

    Ugh

    Also Napoleon Dynamite, the entire movie

    Well that sure makes me think of [indie band #1] crossed with [indie band #2] to form the super-duper combo of [comical reference to some similarity between the two bands]

    No, I actually really liked it.

    It was a really well done movie about the Hulk and his rage as a metaphor for repressed emotional trauma.

    I also like Ang Lee's Hulk, though I'm not really sure why

    I guess Sam Elliot certainly helps, and the few scenes where Hulk gets to smash shit are good

    I remember the day Men In Black 2 came out, I was so excited to see it.

    That morning I was reading the paper, and saw Roger Ebert's review of it, where he ranted about how terrible it was and a complete waste of time and money and so on.

    Except it actually was, and was one of the most horrible sci-fi films I ever sat through.

    What a great Hulk movie really needs is a balance between smashy and thinky

    Ang Lee was all thinky, little smashy

    The new film was all smashy, little thinky

    Neither was all that successful
