I loved it when I was a teenager, but Scarface doesn't hold up well at all.
A History of Violence is very boring and Ed Harris is the only good thing about it.
Fight Club is just alright.
I actually like season 1 of Parks and Rec.
The last two seasons were a mixed bag, but Always Sunny is still funnier than anything else on TV.

It is rare I see someone that hates Fresh PRince. I found it painfuly unfunny when it was airing. And hated when it was in reruns on like 10 channels. I've sat with people who were rolling on the floor in laughter during it and I sat stone faced not thinking any of the show is funny or interesting. Sounds like me when I got talked into going to see Bad Boys in a theater. Sat there the entire film wishing I had seen anything else.

I legitimately had no idea it was even made until it came out. Speaking of unnecessary remakes. Apparently there's ANOTHER Black Christmas coming out. Didn't they just do one a few years ago with Michelle Trachtenberg? That was almost 10 years ago now. So not surprised it is getting remade. They remade Cabin Fever 10 years after it came out. And it was almost a scene for scene remake. I forgot if I have posted these in the thread before. Jaws-Over-rated,sure it started the summer blockbuster. But I get bored about 30 minutes into it. I rather watch Jaws 2 or Jaws 3D. Exorcist-Not scary and not good. Been told "It really works if you are Catholic" Thanks to my mom I was raised Catholic and the film still bores me. The book on the other hand is scary and really good. Friends-Never was funny. Even with my distant cousin as one of the leads I couldn't make it thru an entire episode. All I ask from a sitcom is 2 good laughs an episode. Sopranos-Doesn't hold up to a second viewing. First time I saw it I enjoyed it. Then about 5 years ago got every season on DVD for cheap. Made it thru season 3 and just wasn't enjoying it. Return of the Jedi-The first part of the film is great. Then they leave Tantoonine and it goes to shit. Ace Ventura 1 and 2-First one is funny the first time I saw it and not after that. The second one was crap and I wish I had never paid to see it in a theater. Elf and Anchorman-Will Farrell is only funny in short bursts. Like on SNL. After about 20 minutes he gets uber annoying and goes from making me laugh to making me want to smack him. ID4-Lots of sound and fury but no story. OK FX work. But Will Smith was horrid in the film.

Didn't they just do one a few years ago with Michelle Trachtenberg? Knowing how things have gone, this one will somehow try to be a continuation of the original timeline. Too bad Black Xmas had no sequels to erase from continuity.

Darren Aronofsky's stuff walks a fine line between conceptually powerful and just plain goofy. I like him in the same way I like Baz Luhrmann's work where it's kinda camp.
Fear Of A Black Hat is a funnier mid 90's hip hop satire than CB4 was.
I'm glad Cats Don't Dance is gaining a following over the years, because it was a damn great animated feature that got screwed over through a corporate merger and bad marketing. If you're into expression work, Danny and Darla are gold mines.
Madonna's not a "great" actress, but I really liked her in Evita and Dick Tracy. She's nowhere as good as Queen Latifa or Lady Gaga on screen, but she's in that midtier that Beyonce and Justin Timberlake fall into with their acting. Where they don't blow me away, but also don't take me out of the story either.
The original unabridged Yu-Gi-Oh doesn't get enough credit for strong character writing, especially between Yugi and Pharoah.

SNL is shit
I tried watching cos of the hype. The skits were painfully unfunny yet the audience went wild. The hosts or comediams,are also not funny.
I don't get it

Having finally finished the show tonight, Game of Thrones' final season wasn't that bad. At least, it as bad as the furore suggests.
It's definitely unbalanced and feels a little rushed in places, but it's not the huge drop off a cliff I was expecting.

Fear Of A Black Hat is a funnier mid 90's hip hop satire than CB4 was. Both movies are funny, but Fear of a Black Hat is actually the better hip-hop satire as it really was the hip-hop version of "This is Spinal Tap." CB4 only had the documentary portion as only a part of the story, whereas there was the plot involving Gusto, played by the late Charlie Murphy, who was both funny and menacing at the same time.

I only liked the first season of Friends. That is all.

Justice League might be a Frankenstinian monster of a movie, but it’s still a more bearable watch than Batman V Superman. Re-watched BVS yesterday for maybe the dozenth time and I’m gonna go the other way: I think Justice League is more competent and more sound (...) but I enjoy BVS more. Bloated, lost, melodramatic and self indulgent..but Bens portrayal of Batman is a treat. And the entire Batman Vs Superman thing appeals to me. Ironically, I’d say somehow BVS is more of a Frankenstinian monster than Justice League and thats probably why I enjoy it more despite being a mess.

CB4 did have Phil Hartman, so it gains ten extra points from that.

Seinfeld was highly overrated. When it was actually funny it was brilliant. But those moments were very few, and very far between. Otherwise it was dull to watch and why people thought it was so great is beyond me. It’s also aged horribly in syndication, as they used way too many pop culture references.

I really don't think that Michael Bay deserves all the hate he gets. Okay, I get that he has made some bad films, but a lot of them are fun. Sure, you can argue about the Transformers films - which is what I believe garnered all the hate he has had for years - but I have always liked the Bad Boys films. I also liked The Rock, Pain & Gain, and 13 Hours. I didn't mind The Island. Still haven't watched Pearl Harbor, though I may need three hours to kill for that. Armageddon, well, I thought was okay at best, but I may need to revisit that one.

Hummel was a good honorable man driven to do bad things, because of what the government had done. At the beginning of the movie when stealing the rockets, he called for nonlethal rounds to be used, he didn't want a single soldier to die in that theft. When they got to Alcatraz, he got the school kids to leave, so they wouldn't be hostages. Michael Biehn's character even tells Hummel that he agrees with him, hell in the shootout Hummel is yelling at his squad to stop firing. Mason tells Goodspeed that Hummel wasn't gonna launch the rockets. Hummel made sure that the one rocket that was launched went into the ocean. The villains were the mercs that Hummel hired despite not working with them, and Womack. That was a great decision by Bay and the rest of the people making the movie.

It absolutely blew my mind when I found out Con Air is NOT a Michael Bay film.

Lord of the Rings is incredibly boring
Extant is one of the best tv series you're never heard of
Back to the Future 2, Persona, and 8 1/2 are all vastly overrated
all of Woody Allen's film suck

I do agree he is honourable but he threatened to launch a rocket on San Francisco, for all intents and purposes it makes him a villain in the story even if he was bluffing
