You disagree but you won't block me
Catchy songs. Terrible message. The whole point is that Sandy needs to stop being herself and embrace her inner self to impress Danny. How Romantic
Grease Sucks!
Way too long, a terrible portrayal of autism, and honestly the only thing I’m grateful for is that it resulted in a Frank Ocean song.
Forrest Gump Sucks!
Very Stupid, Too many plot holes to enjoy. Bottom Nolan for me.
The Prestige is mid
Spiderman 3 is great. Top 3 spiderman movies alongside into the spider verse and spiderman 2. Corny as it is. I think it's a masterpiece
Spider-Man 3 is Top 3 Spiderman Movie
Cosplay Scorcese. I like Joaquin Phoenix but it's a worthless of a film.
Joker Sucks!
Hot Takes
Now we're arguing
The first one is also great but this one have so much soul inside.
Kill Bill: Vol. 2 is better than Kill Bill: Vol. 1
I think Get Out (2017) is just fine and Nope ( 2022) is Good. I just like the methapors in this better.
Us is Jordan Peeles Best Film.
Dark, mature, musically unmatched. Disney never went this hard again.
The Hunchback of Notre Dame is Disney's best film.
I also have a soft spot for the David Lynch one. The first one feels more deliberate and expressive.
Dune (Part One) is better than Dune: Part Two—though both are great
Bold, personal, and emotionally honest. People confuse “not for me” with “not good.”
Turning Red is Top 5 Pixar.
Hottest Take
Unforgivable for some people
Less Nostalgia, More creativity. The second one is the worst one by far.
Home Alone 3 is better than Home alone 1 and Home Alone 2.
Miyazakis worst. Frustrating. I give you the visuals but that's about it.
Howl's Moving Castle is not Top 10 Ghibli.
I like the film. I think he did good. Nothing revisionary
Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems is not Oscar Worthy.
It commits to the nightmare instead of mythologizing it. Brutal, relentless, and mean, exactly what the franchise should be.
Halloween II (Rob Zombie) is the best Halloween film.
If cinema is about excess, ego, and genius, then Amadeus is the medium at its peak.
Amadeus is the greatest movie of all time.
