Someone hasn’t seen The Nice Guys… Gosling was great in that!

From the article:

Instead, it has a 92-percent favorable score on Rotten Tomatoes. That’s crud! The Nice Guys is not 92-percent good! It’s like 70-percent good. Maybe less!

That’s not how Rotten Tomato scores work, buddy. I believe this is a troll post, especially judging by another one of his articles “Ryan Gosling Is Not All That Good Looking, IMO”

That’s where I really knew that the guy writing the article was an idiot. It astounds me how many people completely misunderstand how rotten tomatoes actually works.

You may enjoy a movie regardless what the critics say about it
we must get the people to know that the criticism not the measure of the quality of movies, it’s just the opinions of the critics

People don’t already know this?

What am I saying, people are objectively stupid.

Ugh. These sort of people drive me insane. This reminds me of the petition which vouched for the shutdown of rotten tomatoes because suicide squad and BvS got really low scores.

It reminds you of that because it is. It’s the same petition.

We should start a petition entitled “We Don’t Know What Film Criticism Means.”

It will make about as much sense as a petition as that one does.

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

That petition wants Rotten Tomatoes shut down also but I’m speaking of a petition that specifically mentions Suicide Squad/BvS, and proposes a specific bias towards DC movies. What makes it even more ridiclous is that Warner Bros. owns apart of Rotten tomatoes. Same type of dumbass petition though 😉

Star Wars (1977)

This is the first time I’ve watched the movie since Ms. Fisher shuffled off this mortal coil. That knowledge didn’t impede my enjoyment of the movie any, but it was weird having it there in the back of my mind.

9/10

In the Heat of the Night (1967)
Wonder Boys (2000)
Barry (2016)
Mad Max (1979)

In the Heat of the Night was the best of these, Barry was the worst. First time watches for all four.

Oh, and I saw La La Land on New Years Eve, the theater was packed and it was thrilling. I recommend it.

I saw 2 movies, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Rogue One.

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children … 9/10

Rogue One … 8/10

Tim Burton did a great job showing his quirkiness still matters. Gareth Edwards had a great story to tell. It was the CGI replacements that drew me out of the moment. I also would have like to have seen Jyn be darker in the beginning and come to appreciate her path as a rebel like Han Solo did.

All in all, I had fun, and that’s all that counts.

The Green Mile

Don’t know how I never saw this until now. Fantastic. Loved it.

I Give it 9 wet sponges out of 10, subtracting one sponge for it being about 20 minutes too long.

The Lion King -

I still remember seeing this in the theatre, and I still remember a scene that stunned me. Over halfway through the movie, a bunch of leaves lift into the air and spell out the word “SEX”, but as a kid I thought that the leaves spelled out “SFX”. I was shocked and didn’t know what to think. It distracted me for the rest of the movie. Why would the SFX crew think that it was necessary to distract the audience from the film purely to draw more attention to themselves? It struck me as incredibly arrogant and conceited. Why should the SFX crew be deserving of such a semi-cameo when the voice-actors, animators, and artists are just as responsible for the movie’s creation? Even though I now know that I just misread it, and the leaves didn’t spell “SFX”, I still can’t unsee it, even though it has now been removed from the movie because of the confusion.

I actually think it is “sfx”…

And hasn’t it been George Lucas’d away?

Just like how they cut off the minister’s knees in Little Mermaid because people thought it was suggestive.

What about the dildos in the background? Are they still floating around?

Of course you didn’t. You’re not a latent pervert.

What’s hilarious is people were seeing these things watching the VHS on a tiny analog tv screen. And even if it really said SEX, were little Timmy and Suzie (not their real names) going to become deviated preverts as a result?

Where were you in '77?

I thought that it said “SFX” and I did!

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)

This movie is a pinata – a pinata made of schmaltz, stuffed to bursting with saccharine-coated corn, surrounded by a horde of cute but annoying little children who all yell too much.

That being said, the pinata is a nice looking pinata, and the mom at the party has an ass which looks great in a leopard print dress.

The Lobster (2015)
7/10. I thought it started out very strong, but after about the half way point i felt like it dragged and didn’t really have much advancement. i was also very sleepy, so that might have affected my thoughts on it. But i did really enjoy the premise, and most of the humor.

Age of Adaline (2015)
7/10
Wasn’t my first choice, but you have to let your wife choose some. i actually generally really enjoyed this. It should get a few points off for the terrible narration (and bad fake science), but i enjoyed the story, and actually thought Harrison Ford was quite good in this (apart from his introductory scene).
