Rate The Last Movie You Watched - April V3 - no tv shows - General

Not gonna sway me folks. You can like shitty movies. [del]ishtar[/del] I've seen a lot of movies. Not only does my family have A LOT of movies, but I also spend A LOT of money going to see movies. So much so that both of my parents bought me gift cards to the local theatre for Christmas. [editline]2nd January 2015[/editline] Perhaps I just have poor taste, but I like the movies I like.

Watched Blue Ruin. Solid 10 from me, top notch film. It's a revenge flick where the main character isn't a badass and nothing really works out.

[QUOTE=mikeyt493;46844318]Savages is so fuckin bad dude [editline]2nd January 2015[/editline] "I had orgasms...... He had.... Wargasms......"[/QUOTE] i literally turned it off after that

Third part of the Hobbit - 8/10 Didn't care to follow the book much and had some really cheesy moments but I found it to be very entertaining.

[QUOTE=Solomon;46844306]I really liked John Carter[/quote] [quote]I thought drive was only an OK movie, [/QUOTE] It's like you want us to not take you seriously. Besides that why even mention all of that stuff, next someone says that some of the movies you like are objectively shit (because Avatar and John Carter are) you're gonna submit us your CV or what?

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;46844441]just out of curiosity, what is it that you like about avatar other than the effects[/QUOTE] The story believe it or not. I realize that it's Pocahontas, but its just really neat and I think Quaritch was a neat character.

There are much worse things in this world than Avatar. I think its a fine movie. I havnt watched it since the theaters but its not shit.

I really just like watching movies and I'll take any chance I can get to say which movies I like.

[QUOTE=Solomon;46844644]The story believe it or not. I realize that it's Pocahontas, but its just really neat and I think Quaritch was a neat character.[/QUOTE] So you say you liked avatar for the story.

cmon blue indians man

[QUOTE=Killuah;46844679]So you say you liked avatar for the story.[/QUOTE] This is the most pointless post I've seen in a while Avatar is pretty ok imo looks nice and not much else but it's a decent watch

Avatar may not have been perfect, but it excelled at creating a good alien atmosphere.

It the most exploitative movie of the last few years and the story is one of the most idiotic plots too so if you don't want to look stupid in front of people who actually like to think and process the things behind the sparkly effects you might want to watch [url]http://redlettermedia.com/plinkett/other-movies/avatar/[/url]

i don't see how that video really goes against what people are trying to say here it's not the best movie ever made and it isn't even cameron's best either but the movie is at least a decent watch

Nah, I'm good. I watch movies to enjoy myself. I'll talk about what I enjoy and why I enjoy it. I'm not here for people to tell me that my opinions are wrong and I'm an idiot. Didn't come for that, no siree.

The way it's insulting and belittleing every viewer by the kind of stupid shit it expects the viewers to swallow? That whole video basically shows how only simpletons and people with no clue about movies would enjoy Avatar and if that flied over your head I really don't know how to make it more clear to you.

Did Avatar kill your family or something. You're being awfully offensive over this.

avatar was ok

[QUOTE=mark6789;46844797]Did Avatar kill your family or something. You're being awfully offensive over this.[/QUOTE] I'm kinda angry about how the stupid shit Cameron pulls works and sets a trend. Look at all of the stupid neat-3D-effects-but-shit-script-and-story shit we got now. The Hobbit 3 being the latest emtry into that category I want successful cinema to be better than that. [editline]3rd January 2015[/editline] On good movies: The Drop 8/10 go watch it it's slow and good

[QUOTE=Killuah;46844828] I want successful cinema to be better than that.[/QUOTE] how much money it makes is immaterial. [QUOTE=Killuah;46844828]how the stupid shit Cameron pulls works and sets a trend[/QUOTE] this also doesn't matter, better avatar than transformers...

Maybe I'm just one of those idiots you're going on about. I also really like the use of the word simpleton. Lets people know you're really smarter than everyone else and how we're clearly wrong in liking this thing.

Oculus 0/10 because it had nothing to do with virtual reality. 6/10 because it was a decent horror movie with an interesting premise, but had a confusing plot (I may be dumb).

The story. :downs:

why?
