What’s your “The Beatles suck” type opinion?

[BonnieMcFarlaneMe2]

The first had aged awfully, including the action scenes. I can't even say that about certain other era action films. I just watched Bulletproof Monk again, an admitted piece of shit, but those action scenes are still entertaining. Hell, the movie is still entertaining for what it is, but I can't watch Matrix or the following two.

RESURRECTIONS, however, I've come around to liking. The action scenes take a backseat - thankfully, because they're not that great - and the story is at the forefront. It pokes holes in all the lore they created in the original Matrix run as well as the idea of reboots and remakes in general. There's actually a heart and even intelligence to it, like the old science fiction I enjoyed from the sixties and seventies. Still not a great movie, but I like it better than the first three.

First one is good and the rest suck cock. I enjoy the revisionist history about the movies though. “The movies are about being trans!” Are they?

Quoting two of my posts without ribbing them. I thought you were better than that, Ray. *sniff*

Shrek is a terrible movie with no redeeming qualities, save the animatics with Chris Farley before he died putting that shit on cheeseburgers. I don't care if you were 5 when you saw it.

Eddie Murphy as Donkey rules though. The movie does suck in general though.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is a piece of shit.

I swear I've tried multiple times to get into that game, I just can't. All you fucking do for the first 2-3 hours is open some drawers, listen to a load of dialogue, go hunting and then ride a bunch of whores into town on a wagon. It's fucking boring and I just lose interest and quit.

The first game did the 'slow, easing you into things' intro perfectly. It set up the story and you didn't do much but it was still fun and interesting. 2 just feels like it's trying to punish you. I want to play a game, not an interactive movie, faggots.

Modern horror films have become boring.

They're either bland jump scare fests to get as many people in the cinema as possible to pad their numbers, or they're gorefests with no atmosphere or story.

Also, Phil Collins is an alright dude.

Fucking yes. Every hyped/highly rated movie this year has weirdly been a horror. Late Night with the Devil, The Substance, Oddity, Trap (haven't seen that yet but it looks terrible) and they've all been overrated as fuck. It's like they don't even try anymore. All you have to do is come up with a somewhat unique concept, make sure it's stylishly shot and people will act like it's a masterpiece.

The short where the kids find a glitch and play around with it is fucking amazing. It might actually be better than the original movie.

Late Night With The Devil was ok, at least that had something to it and was unique. I have not seen The Substance, and being Cronenberg-ian, I might not.

I think the last one I saw that got it "right", was the first Paranormal Activity in a cinema. It was slow, but it had just come out, and it worked.

Unless you're doing something period piece, like the Corman Poe Cycle, or visually interesting like The Thing, horror should really be cheap and effective, like the first Halloween.

How great was the original Blair Witch Project? It was fucking terrifying and they made the actors go into hiding so it would be real to people outside of the movie.

I think the girl from Blair With just sells dope now and the fat guy from it did a movie about gay porn or something. Cool people.

Ehhhhhhhhh I knew it wasn't real when I saw it, but it had great atmosphere.

They tried to pull a less offensive version of the Cannibal Holocaust scheme, make it seem real when it wasn't. Difference was, CH was so offensive it ruined the directors career and the actors had to break their NDA's to prove they weren't killed. He made a very realistic horror film and it bit him in the ass.

At no point did Blair Witch ever seem real to me, though I know they tried.

I was in 6th grade and bought it hook line and sinker for a while.

Exactly this.

Bought it as I loved the first game, however I've no interest grooming a horse, feeding a fucking horse, shaving and bathing.
I just wanna do missions and goof about, I don't play video games to replicate the mundanity of real life. As a result I've not played any video games in over 5 years now.

You don't like that they made your facial hair grow at a realistic rate so you have to shave in a video game?

 

[Turk February]

I think with Rockstar Games since Max Payne 3 you can tell every fucking game is an experiment to see what they can eventually put in Grand Theft Auto. I really don't think they gave a shit about Red Dead Redemption 2.

First of all, The Beatles rule.

I can still remember my dad throwing on Sgt Peppers when I was like 11, nodding his head along staring at me intently with this sly grin waiting for my reaction. He really thought he was blowing my mind and I had to pretend it was good so as not to hurt his feelings.

You know what Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds stands for, dontcha??? LSD!! Wow, dad. Very groovy, you old faggot.

Sgt. Peppers is what posers consider the best Beatles album. It's nowhere near one of their best.

Had some good segments in it. Some not so good.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is a piece of shit.

Completely agree, I wrote about it a while back.

Finished Red Dead 2 a while back.

It was not that good. I hate games that hold your hand the entire time, it's not any different from tracing some gameplay you saw on YouTube. All you need is to be told to rob a train and then you should figure out the rest for yourself. With RDR2 it's; Explicit instructions on how to get to...

No, I'd prefer a beard shaver so I can keep my stubble and look like a real cowboy.
