Almost every live action adaptation of any classic animated movie.
Eternal Sunshine if a Spotless Mind has such good reviews and people speak fondly of it online. I hated it, just thought both characters were insufferable, and there was nothing remotely romantic about it. Felt like I was trapped in the bad relationship with them.
I couldn’t get into any of the LOTR movies. I like fantasy, I like adventure, I like fighting, but those films are boring as hell to me.
I upvote you for being brave enough to voice your opinion on this.
I like the movies but hey everyone doesn’t like everything

Once upon a time in Hollywood.
Closely followed by anything that’s self-jerking Hollywood’s ego. I’m looking at you too La La Land!
I know this is heresy but any Godfather movie, or the Sopranos, or anything that romanticizes the fucking mafia. To me organized crime characters are pieces of shit I can’t admire or relate to. The only movie that ever made me root for gangster types was Pulp Fiction, which is a masterpiece.
If The Sopranos was boring, what you’d get is The Godfather. It’s boring. And it insists upon itself.
Oppenheimer.
3 hrs of nausea-inducing quick cuts
How about one that will actually piss people off: The Shawshank Redemption
This movie is fine. I don’t understand why it tops so many peoples lists for greatest movie though.
Most of action movie franchises, tbh: James Bond, Transformers, Mission: Impossible, Fast and Furious, to name a few
I would argue that while they aren’t good, they are fun. I like to call them “shut your brain off movies”, and I totally get why people wouldn’t like them.
Like Fast and Furious for example. It doesn’t have a good story, or writing, or really even great acting. But it does have some really great scenes of cool cars going really fast and sometimes I like to just sit and relax and watch that kind of stuff. At least up till like 5 or maybe 6. Then it starts to get a little too weird for me.
I like to call them “shut your brain off movies”, …
I actually have a name for those too. I call them “monke brain” movies/anime or whatever form of entertainment.
I guess I can convince myself by rewatching if it actually is good, but:
Cabin in the Woods.
Tap for spoiler
I understand they were going for meta-horror, but it was so in your face, so mediocre, so shallow.
Scream series is far better meta horror imo.
Super Mario Bros (1993) - it is just horrible, the only good thing about the movie is that it has a practical Yoshi puppet.
LOL no over ever tries to claim this movie is actually good
Everything Disney did with Star Wars
Idk Andor is some of the best star wars ever. Even considering the original 3.
Also the lightsaber tech that they have adds so much to the visuals of the movies and TV. Having lightsabers that actually glow AND allow for contact during combat is just incredible.
Good try but no, not interested
I mean I guess that’s fair, but Rouge One and Andor are peak star wars. And if you don’t wanna watch them just cause they happened under Disney then you’re missing out
I saw the first few Disney SW movies and I don’t think I’m missing out on anything they’re throwing off the assembly line these days.
Also, I wouldn’t have commented under this post if someone I don’t even know could change my mind about this that easily.
Rian johnson is a national treasure!!!
Mad Max: Fury Road. I thought that was dumbest, most caveman pleasing trash that has ever received that much acclaim. Truly, the entire movie is designed to make a caveman go, “OOhhhH!.. WwAaHh!.. FFIIRE!.. DwWoOah!.. HaHhh!.. OOhhhH! LaDy!!..HhaHh!.. MAD!!..WoOoHhh!”
Thank you. I saw it, and it was one of the most boring movies I’d seen in spite of all the effects being thrown at me. Mind you, I went into it having watched Mad Max & Road Warrior hours before, and having skipped Thunderdome (and Waterworld). In all honesty, Fury Road is just “what if we actually made Waterworld the Mad Max sequel it was obviously supposed to be?”
I don’t really get the hype for Citizen Kane.
Though, I kinda think it might be because growing up, this movie was spoiled in almost every cartoon I ever saw (“Rosebud” was the punchline of so many jokes) and maybe not knowing the ending would have made it better. 🤷🏻♂️
Can it be a director?
The dark Knight is the only good Nolan movie. And Heath carried all of the weight
I’d put memento ahead of the dark knight, but agree Nolan is enormously overrated.
Mmm I don’t know; while I thought Tenet as a whole was overwrought the Opera sequence was an amazingly tight bit of storytelling.
His movies doesn’t suck. He’s an excellent technician and movie-mechanic, but his apparent inability to portray humans and their connections in a believable manner puts him in the overrated-book for me.
