yeah, i agree that BP2 was really boring.
I find it offensive that a lot of people thinks its not only a good movie, but a movie that matters or that should win like, an oscar or something. Thats why i think we need to remember how fucking shitty it is.

I heard Margot Robbie's last four movies have lost over $100 million each. I don't know if its true but if it is that's some run.

Really, Amsterdam worse than Bullet Train?

I haven't seen Amsterdam but I find that very hard to fathom

I still want to see Amsterdam.

I don't care at all about Bullet Train and in fact turned down an opportunity to see it in the theaters for free.

It's incompetent. Thor is cringy and weird and the tone is all over the place, but Amsterdam is amateur

It's hard to describe just how awful Amsterdam is. It feels more like a simulation of a movie, made by aliens or robots, than a movie. Pictures move. There is sound. But it is not a movie.

can we take a moment and think about how bonkers the press tour for Dont Worry Darling was?
I will remember more about that than the tedious half baked kinda of a remake of Antebellum that the movie was.

I see this format is popular on Twitter now, I thought maybe we could try it out with a few extra categories:

Disappointment: Blonde

I wanna make a top 10 of 2022 but I still need to see a few movies. I know a few thing though :

- I knew I wasn’t going to like Black Pantha 2, but I was actually surprised on how boring it was and how awful the fx were.

- White Noise is the epitome of unwatchable.

- I miss comedies. They seem to be completely gone. Then you have an abortion like Bros, that’s actually trying to pass as one.

Has to be the lowest budget for a Michael Bay joint, no?

Probably. And you wouldn't know it by watching it. It looks great. It does a lot with very little.
