Should the thread title be "Which movies are you watching?"?

no, it definitly didn't make it great. i was hoping for a well-made disaster movie. this was not. they should really just stop trying and leave these movies to roland emmerich since he seems to be the only one who can do them right

Why is it plural?

It should be "Which movie is you watching?"

No, no - maybe if it was even slightly self aware it would have been watchable - this movie is such a turd. Right from the opening scene they let you know how bad this film will be, so I guess at least there's that

I've been rewatching the Disney animated movies and I'm close to coming up with a definitive ranking.

notes:
Treasure Planet is unfairly maligned.
Brother Bear is gorgeous.
Pocahontas is one of the worst.
Sleeping Beauty has a unique and cool style and is probably one of the more underrated ones.
I had no idea Atlantis existed until recently, and the art style is based loosely on Mike Mignola's art, and it looks amazing.
The later movies are extremely formulaic, but the animation deserves so much better.
Lion King is best. Maybe Lilo and Stitch second.

Watched Exodus last night - although it still left me with a bitter taste - I didn't hate it as much as I thought I would

I very badly want the 4-hour cut of this to be released.

I don't think I'd be able to sit through that. I found the current cut of this film to be stupidly long
