- Jackie Brown
- Multiplicity
-  The Paper
- The Dream Team
- Beetlejuice
- Mr Mom
- Night Shift

Michael Keaton to a young billfromlaketravis: “your momma sure does care about your schoolin’ son”

mad max fury road is pointless, unwatchable garbage. i could say the same for many/most big budget movies these days. all style, no substance.

End jiggly camera syndrome. 

Except for this brilliant observation, the rest of you need to relook at the thread title. It’s unpopular opinions, not dumb ass stupid opinions.

War- Fury was stupid schlock.

Comic book- Venom movies are really bad— I can’t believe they got a greenlit sequel and trilogy. 

Drama/oscar bait- Oppenheimer is massively overrated. One of Nolan’s weaker movies to me. The Whale was mediocrity in a fat suit.

Kids- Dreamworks > Disney (this decade)

Comedy- Barbie was stupid and not worth a “social conversation” that lame people purported it to start

Musical- Hugh Jackman is a better Les Mis & Greatest showman than he is a Wolverine 

sports- the first creed movie was really good.

You think disliking shaky cam is an unpopular opinion?

Whoa dude really going out on a ledge here. 

Saw a billboard for it this morning on the way to the airport and thought “wow a third movie got financed?” when the third mad max movie is in question after furiousa bombed.

clearly you people (not you, but the royal you) think venom movies are good and worth spending money to see, to commercial success and continued development.

Greatest Showman is kind of good.

Gritty comic book movies suck and it’s time to end them.  The source material is a person dressing up in a themed costume, maybe with magical powers, and fighting another themed rival. It’s not a vehicle to explore the problems with America or imperialism or libertarian philosophy or whatever. We have Westerns and gangster movies for that.

Not only did they get it right by awarding the Oscar to Shakespeare in Love, Saving Private Ryan is a shlocky movie filled with comic book level stereotype characters. The opening scene masks the fact that it's very average.

Shawshank Redemption is way overrated.  I’ve tried to get through it several times and I’m bored to death and stop watching.  

Was going to post on this subject but you covered it very adequately

Stars wars is garbage 

I used to watch the CBS Evening News with my father every week day when I was a kid. It was anchored by some fellow named Cronkite back then. Followed the war in Vietnam, Manson, Watergate, etc. Anywho I still remember the first TV ad for Star Wars and him declaring it "a bunch of crap."

But I also remember him saying AC/DC were a bunch of homos just based on the cover of Highway to Hell so it's not like he was clairvoyant or anything

SPR is also overflowing with terrible acting.

I’m not saying Keaton isn’t good at what he’s done, Night Shift being the exception, but he’s playing the same character over and over again.

This is fair. It's a very Denzel type thing in that mostly everything is top notch but it's literally the same character

Yep. He won the Oscar because he did something different. 
 

And so did Keaton.
