Ask Lemmy

Terminator Genesys. It's loathed by terminator fans for a variety of reasons and I won't defend any of the writing or casting decisions, but I do give it credit for trying to do something new with the story and time aspect. I think it could have been a lot better if they took a bit more time with it and recast a few characters, but overall it's a popcorn flik to me, turn your brain off and enjoy.

I won't say it's hated but I feel like it completely fell under the radar because of covid.

Ron's Gone Wrong

I really liked it. It came out of 20th century studios, I suppose it's technically under Disney now. It got released and no one gave it the time of day.

I don’t think anyone hates it but Congo has a low rating online despite it being one of my favourite movies of all time. I can recite or word word

Star Wars Ep 1 gets more hate than it deserves. It's not a masterpiece by any means, but it's enjoyable.

People really like to hate on Jurassic World, but I quite enjoyed it.

Dare Devil, directors cut. I thought it was as good a super hero origins movie as any of the others.

Chicken Little - I'm not here to defend it, but it has a place in my heart.

The Lone Ranger (2013). Yeah it's at least a half hour longer than it should have been but I thought it was a fun movie

Johnny Mnemonic. Keanu cannot act for shit in it, the story isn't exactly gripping, hell the action in it is somewhere in the shitter. Oh, and Henry Rollins is a nerdy doctor. All if it adds up to a campy trip of slop that triggers my guilty pleasure.

Wild wild west. I wish to be entertained.

Jupiter Ascending. It was a low writing effort but big budget high fantasy with a slightly too perfect protagonist, "science" that makes absolutely 0 sense, and a cartoonishly evil villain just absolutely chewing the scenery which is pretty common, except most most of the time the protagonist is male. I loved seeing the equivalent of my 13 y/o mary sue fanfiction on a movie screen with a massive budget (edit: and channing tatum as her loyal dog consort-boyfriend). Just this once. More than that would get as tired just as quickly as the male equivalent. But just this once it was delicious. I have the poster framed actually, the real poster from the theater, my friend who worked there saved it for me.

There is an often panned movie starring Robin Williams called Club Paradise. It's not a good movie but it's a fantastic feature length SNL skit.

I had to look it up to remember the name, but Agent F.O.X. It's one of those cheapo 3D kids films (looks original instead of being a rip-off and actually looks good animation wise) that is cheesy. Sometimes it's good to watch B-rate 3D kids films so you can die of how cringe it is, despite from what I can remember the movie not being 100% cringe like 99% of all cheap 3D kids films (but still cringe).
