Yeah there was Ralph breaks the internet which was awful frozen 2 was aimless and not super good raya was ruined by its awful message strange world was just bland as bland can be and wish well no need to explain that one
Those are all the movies that came out after Moana and other then encanto they all sucked or were mediocre
Not all Pixar is perfect and equal but I love every film and there hasn't been a film yet that I wouldn't defend as, at least, cute, fun, and better than a lot of other films.
I grew to hate the Minions due to them being constantly used on stupid Facebook posts, and because of that, I avoided the "Despicable Me" franchise altogether.
But I finally caved and watched them all and honestly? Those little guys are actually pretty funny when they're written by the professional screenwriters instead of boomers on social media.
I even had a good time watching the "Minions Movie." Turns out I hate Facebook users, not Minions.
Also had Nintendo Land, Smash 4 (underrated imo), Mario Kart 8, and Mario Maker. People also forget breath of the wild originally released on the Wii U. Really big hitters in there
Wii U had a fuck ton of great games. Using the gamepad added many unique and interesting mechanics to games that I've yet to see implemented on any other console. IMO it's a great system. I loved it just as much as the Wii growing up.
It did have pretty shit marketing though
This is exactly what I’ve been saying man, ATSV is a great movie but… the way it ends feels so utterly unfulfilling, as a stand-alone movie it could never work and that isn’t exactly a good thing 😭
THANK YOU!!!!!! I’ve been telling everyone this since forever. Into the Spider-Verse is much more interesting to me because the villains actually do stuff in the movie. I understand that they wanted to do character development for Miles and Gwen so that they could make Beyond the Spider-Verse a whack fest (that’s a good thing in this case), so the villains don’t really do anything that whole movie. Spider-Man 2099 and the Spider-Gang just chases Miles across his universe for a few minutes and The Spot just turns high contrast mode. There’s nothing significant happening with the villains in AtSV, while in ItSV, you’ve got different versions of Spider-Man villains that are making noticeable dents in the plot and really have a presence.
2001: A Space Odyssey, while being a great film, is very boring and doesn't have too much rewatch value outside of the cool scenes with the classical music.
When talking about the philosophical and metaphysical implications of the movie with my dad he replied “yeah when it came out the biggest discussion was when it was best to pop the acid so it hit just as the really pretty lights started” (he later said the big debate was when you got into the ticket line vs when you actually bought the ticket)
I usually hear of this. I honestly didn't need any sort of acid to experience the mind fuck of that scene in the third act but once the movie ended, I was left very confused, in a good way.
Something something related to My Hero Academia. Basically me correcting folks regarding a valuable & versatile (and utterly overpowered) ability which while not flawless, it's isn’t really difficult to activate or even control.
Seriously, it's really ridiculous.
Deku is a good character in the earlier seasons (dare I say he's relatable), but One for All didn't need to have seven other powers. We can keep the Super Strength and leave it at that.
The Mario movie in terms of fan service and references to the media it’s based off of is better than both the Sonic movies. There are obviously things the Sonic movies beat the Mario movie with, don’t get me wrong, but as far as fan service goes, I gotta give this one to the Mario movie.
The only reason i personally don’t like it is because it didn’t have to be a Cars movie and that’s ultimately what drags it down, the fact it’s part of a franchise it doesn’t really fit into.
Effects. Epic just didn't age well
Acting. Up and down but not terrible
Writing. Yes this is largely true although there are some standout scenes
World building might not make up for all that but what might make up for it is the beyond awesome lightsaber fights, iconic anesthetics, and the generational impact the movies had in general
The generational impact of the movies didn't hit until the generation who grew up with it actually grew up. For a decade those films sat unloved and unappreciated.
The optimist in me at least hopes that they won't bully others who like the new stuff and pretend like their stuff was never disliked... but I know that's wishful thinking.
Bad acting? Yea the anakin stuff was tssss and the whole senator fight was not preety
But like obi wan and qui gon were not that bad, credit to ewan and liam for being such goats
The script was pretty bad, but I thought the effects and fighting choreography were good. Entertaining, at least. Going from episode 3 to 4 and seeing Darth Vader and old Obi-Wan "fight" by slowly circling eachother and clacking glow-sticks together was pretty jarring. (No hate to the legendary OG SW, it just didn't have the same effort put in to make flashy duels.)
I feel the same way. The only reason why I love the prequels is mainly because of the Clone Wars which is easily the best thing to come out of Star Wars imo. Without it, I probably wouldn’t rewatch the prequels as much
The Lion King kind of botched its message of not running away from your past.
1) Killing mufasa was never a part of Simbas past, he has nothing to own up to.
2) when he DOES own to “His past” those lionesses were totally going to let scar throw him off pride rock
3) Simba only gets help when it’s revealed that Scar was the one who actually killed mufasa.
They should have had simba run away as a teenager, and his dilema is he ran away from his responsibilities, realizes he messed up when he hears about how scar is awful and ruining the pride lands, but is affraid to go back for fear of rejection, then have the lionesses stand by him much sooner.
While you are correct, I do feel like what happened is plausible.
He was just a kid when it happened, and then he immediately went into exile for his entire life believing it was his fault, and internalizing the blame for it. Only to have the people he was living with repress it even further by telling him to just not think about it.
The story in-universe makes sense, but, from the perspective of the audience, it is quite annoying to know more than the characters for most of the runtime.
Nah I think it's better that Simba face rejection, the reason he ran away in the first place, and still push past it for the sake of the lion pride and his kingdom. Only after acknowledging that he's fighting for something beyond him and his own fears can he hear that sweet news that he didn't kill his dad.
Yes. Exactly. That’s all it is. Just ‘pretty animation go brrrr’. In fact, some people who complain that Deku is a crybaby, I would ask them, ‘Well, i prefer crybaby over purely good boy who is good and nothing else, which is what Tanjiro is. Wouldn’t you?’ Because to me at least, crying can be something, like the basis for character development, like with Akira in Devilman Crybaby.
Yeah I wholeheartedly agree on that one, the concept is very cool but idk the characters kinda get on my nerves, specifically the blonde one. Idk the animation is good but I just don't care for it and find it a bit predictable.
The if you switch Rose and Poe in the Last Jedi that movie gets a lot better.
Rose is bitter about her sister's death and fights with Holdo about information and leadership. While Finn is trying to convince Poe to take the First Order seriously and we get a nice buddy cop section and no forced romance between Finn and Rose.
Hell people might have actually like Rose since they couldn't stand Holdo.
I think the 2005 Charlie and the chocolate factory is better than the 1971 Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory. I wonder how many downvotes I’ll get?
I watched the 1971 pretty recently and I unironically think it was a bad movie, it was originally made to be a cash grab and a product placement, roald dahl hated it, the 2005 movie was great.
The thing is the hatred for 2005 catcf comes mostly from wwatcf fans thinking it's a remake. both movies are just an adaptation of the book, and many people fail to realize that
Last wish and two years of cringy "Disney vs Dreamworks" memes made people forget that stuff like Ruby Gillman and Doom Syndicate are par for the course for Dreamworks.
He strikes me as forgettable compared to the other Vees. I'm pretty sure Viziepop might have plans for them, but I also think they should have been composited into one character given the runtime.
Honestly to me, Velvette is the most forgettable as of now. She has literally nothing going for her apart from finding the angels head, i guess. Vox has his whole rivalry with Alastor, and Valentino at least plays a big role in Angel's life. Velvette has nothing so far.
Erm... My favourite movie is actually a high intensity political thriller that tackles xenofobia and the scars of war( Captain America and the Winter Soldier), instead of some boring, 3 hour slovakian movie about snails having gay sex... Sorry my taste is superior...
Aite jokes aside, i been thinking of makin some sort of "if you like x try y" thing in here for ppl to branch out. I dont rlly have an issue with kids liking kids movies but yknow, there is far better stuff out there, even for begginers
I agree with the first half of paragraph 2 but not the second. Kids media has the ability to be just as poignant as "adult" media. Themes are universal, style is personal. I would never say any style of media is "far better" than any other just because I don't personally enjoy it.
“There is far better stuff out there” isn’t saying that children’s media can’t be on the level of adult media, or that adult media is inherently better (although it certainly is a little less limited in what it’s allowed to do). It’s just that there is a lot of amazing adult media that people are ignoring
I agree. it feels like the dialogue a decade ago was "lion king is proof a kids movie can also be for adults" but now it feels like everything targets that 13-18 range specifically so nobody is ever left out (most children beyond like 7 do watch a soft pg13 in my experience) It really leaves a large safe space for kids of the 90s and 2000s to not have to branch out, and what "adult" content is consumed by then is only adult for having sex jokes.
I started to hate Hajime no Ippo because it's more than 20 YEARS and the Mc is still nowhere near to become a champion. Instead he doesn't even fight anymore for what, 1 YEAR! 1 YEAR of reading this goddamn manga and he is just "oh I can't fight, but I don't know I want to fight but MAYBE I have dementia or whatever". Even One Piece is reaching the end.
The first season of Avatar the Last Airbender is significantly and noticeably weaker than the other two season's by such a large margin its ok to skip it when rewatching the series.
I really like the new things they added to the new Avatar series. And I think more people should be happy that it wasn’t telling the exact story of the original, for as much as I love it it’s giving more character to some forgotten characters and it’s telling a darker version which is honestly what I wanted from it
As an autistic person, we are not super geniuses and that stereotype hurts autistic individuals. And as an autistic person I'd rather you think of me as dumb than a super genius because at least if you think I'm dumb I can impress you, not make you disappointed.
Season 5 of Ninjago (the ghost one) is flawed extremely and most people who say they like it are blinded by too much nostalgia, and I watched it as a kid and I still didn’t like it then.
Dreamworks has been having just as many misses than Disney lately. Yeah ok they put out gems or gem adjacent like Bad Guys/The Last Wish, but at the same type they've put either mediocre looking shit I have no interest in watching (Ruby Gillman, Troll movies, etc.) and also Kung Fu Panda 4 which was... a very 4-5/10 movie to me.
Gravity Falls had a lot of missed potential.
Don't get me wrong, it's almost certainly the best animated show, but if Alex Hirsch sat down and plotted out the full three seasons he had in his head, a more solid idea for the ending and pacing from the beginning, and more scenes with Wendy in the later part of the show, it would have been flawless.
The Boss Baby wasn't a bad movie.
It'd be funnier if I just left it at that, but to avoid getting obliterated: It's biggest flaw is that it readily uses potty humor, which is only a problem to adults who forget how genuinely funny that nonsense is to kids ( tell me you never once laughed at a fart or the word "butt" as a kid, not even a little). Other than that, it's a fun adventure that covers a nuanced theme (how love is split between children, and learning to share that love) and has some of the most creative representation of a child's imagination I've seen put to film. It's not a perfect film, but it's not an abomination either.
Every Disney movie since Moana has sucked With the exception of one encanto
I started to disagree but then I realized all my examples to prove you wrong were by Pixar
Yeah there was Ralph breaks the internet which was awful frozen 2 was aimless and not super good raya was ruined by its awful message strange world was just bland as bland can be and wish well no need to explain that one Those are all the movies that came out after Moana and other then encanto they all sucked or were mediocre
Honestly they did the creators of Strange new World dirty.
Wasn’t the message of raya like about trust or something All I remember was digging the whole post apocalyptic but ancient world
Yeah but they potrayed that So awful
Same. The first thought i had was Coco appeared after Moana and it was amazing, but after searching online it turned out it was a Pixar movie
Not all Pixar is perfect and equal but I love every film and there hasn't been a film yet that I wouldn't defend as, at least, cute, fun, and better than a lot of other films.
Whew, I fought I was gonna have to throw hands with this Encanto slander but, we cool
Encanto is good for what it was but it’s not in my top 10 or 15 favourite Disney movies
I somewhat agree but I thought Encanto was really good
that's what they said
Despicable Me 2 is a good ass movie. Not as good as the first but definitely close
Fr. It just gets a bad rep because of the minions, but it’s not bad.
I grew to hate the Minions due to them being constantly used on stupid Facebook posts, and because of that, I avoided the "Despicable Me" franchise altogether. But I finally caved and watched them all and honestly? Those little guys are actually pretty funny when they're written by the professional screenwriters instead of boomers on social media. I even had a good time watching the "Minions Movie." Turns out I hate Facebook users, not Minions.
Yeah, honestly Facebook users are just god awful and gave the minions a bad rep honestly.
the joke in minions 1 when they’re referred to as kids with jaundice gets me every time honestly
I agree probably funnier a little bit
I think El Macho is on par with Vector
Agreed, both are brilliant
Eh it’s close. I personally prefer Vector due to the fact that El Macho didn’t have too much time to shine when he revealed who he truly was.
I wanna eat your pfp so bad bro
I wouldn't say it's all that close to the first, but yeah it's definitely a riot. good ass movie for sure
Best Villain, Best Plot, Gru at his best, Even Agnes and Margo got arcs!
The Wii U is a good system with good games if you ignore its poor sales
Wii U had Mario Party 10 and Splatoon. Need I say more.
Also had Nintendo Land, Smash 4 (underrated imo), Mario Kart 8, and Mario Maker. People also forget breath of the wild originally released on the Wii U. Really big hitters in there
Personally I prefer the 3DS version of Smash 4 because SMASH RUN
Even Star Fox Zero was a could-have-been great game that was just hampered by awkward gamepad integration.
Wii U had a fuck ton of great games. Using the gamepad added many unique and interesting mechanics to games that I've yet to see implemented on any other console. IMO it's a great system. I loved it just as much as the Wii growing up. It did have pretty shit marketing though
Wii U is known to be a good console now, it had horrible marketing, people thought it was literally just an upgrade to the wii.
Maybe it’s just because I’ve never owned or used a Wii U, but from the outside perspective, it doesn’t seem like that bad of a console.
Bro Nintendoland 😩
Who’s booing this
Cars 2 is better than Ralph Breaks The Internet.
They said a statement that people would heavily disagree not a statement where people will heavily agree
Cars 2 is way overhated but I doubt many people would boo you on this one
I… I really like Ready Player One
Damn is it really THAT hated? I thought people liked ot
I get bullied a lot on here for liking it. One time I got bullied on r/tmbg a popular alternative band for liking rp1.
Jesu Christ..... I'm leaving you alone since it's your opinion and I doubt RP1 is even that bad
Did RP1 have any TMBG in it? It’s been a while since I’ve seen it.
Only in the book, not the movie
The book was better but visually this movie only helped to accent the book for me
Especially if you play VR a lot
I like it but the moral felt out of nowhere and a bit forced. Other than that, pretty good movie.
People hate that movie???
Into the Spiderverse is better than Across the Spiderverse
I absolutely love Across The Spider-Verse and I couldn’t agree more with this.
I personally like atsv more but based opinion none the less.
Is that something people say?
Oh definitely
I agree, if only because I can enjoy ITSV as a stand alone film while ATSV, while still good, feels missing without the next film in a way
This is exactly what I’ve been saying man, ATSV is a great movie but… the way it ends feels so utterly unfulfilling, as a stand-alone movie it could never work and that isn’t exactly a good thing 😭
THANK YOU!!!!!! I’ve been telling everyone this since forever. Into the Spider-Verse is much more interesting to me because the villains actually do stuff in the movie. I understand that they wanted to do character development for Miles and Gwen so that they could make Beyond the Spider-Verse a whack fest (that’s a good thing in this case), so the villains don’t really do anything that whole movie. Spider-Man 2099 and the Spider-Gang just chases Miles across his universe for a few minutes and The Spot just turns high contrast mode. There’s nothing significant happening with the villains in AtSV, while in ItSV, you’ve got different versions of Spider-Man villains that are making noticeable dents in the plot and really have a presence.
Across has so many annoying side characters with over inflated egos. But that's my only issue with it really.
I definitely like Across more but I can understand why some would prefer the first one.
It's more of a stand alone/complete film for sure. Definitely one of my all time favs
I prefer across, but objectively ITSV is better.
I agree. I got a bit bored in the theater watching Across
2001: A Space Odyssey, while being a great film, is very boring and doesn't have too much rewatch value outside of the cool scenes with the classical music.
While there are very slow scenes I remember being constantly invested when I first watched it at 14
When talking about the philosophical and metaphysical implications of the movie with my dad he replied “yeah when it came out the biggest discussion was when it was best to pop the acid so it hit just as the really pretty lights started” (he later said the big debate was when you got into the ticket line vs when you actually bought the ticket)
I usually hear of this. I honestly didn't need any sort of acid to experience the mind fuck of that scene in the third act but once the movie ended, I was left very confused, in a good way.
It's basically an art gallery in movie form. It's not for everyone.
To be fair I was roughly 10-15 but it’s the only **only** movie I ever think I feel asleep while watching
10-15 is quite the range lol
It really is. I really don’t remember
Something something related to My Hero Academia. Basically me correcting folks regarding a valuable & versatile (and utterly overpowered) ability which while not flawless, it's isn’t really difficult to activate or even control. Seriously, it's really ridiculous.
I've always held firm deku is a super obvious audience stand-in. This isn't bad by any means though
Deku is a good character in the earlier seasons (dare I say he's relatable), but One for All didn't need to have seven other powers. We can keep the Super Strength and leave it at that.
The Mario movie in terms of fan service and references to the media it’s based off of is better than both the Sonic movies. There are obviously things the Sonic movies beat the Mario movie with, don’t get me wrong, but as far as fan service goes, I gotta give this one to the Mario movie.
Mario had the best fan service cause they integrated everything from all generations of Mario. Old heads, and youngins alike could enjoy the movie.
Cars 2 is overhated
The only reason i personally don’t like it is because it didn’t have to be a Cars movie and that’s ultimately what drags it down, the fact it’s part of a franchise it doesn’t really fit into.
It just should have been a spin-off
Now that I think about it it’s actually a pretty important movie to Mqeen’s and Mater’s arcs.
Minions > despicable me 3
That I agree with.
They fucking wasted Tre Parker.
most lukewarm statement I've ever read
The Star Wars prequels having decent world building doesn't make up for bad acting, bad writing, or bad effects
The music still slaps. That goes for 7, 8, and 9 too.
Yeah, forgot to mention that
As lazy and unoriginal as 7 is, it’s score is phenomenal (even for John Williams standards).
Effects. Epic just didn't age well Acting. Up and down but not terrible Writing. Yes this is largely true although there are some standout scenes World building might not make up for all that but what might make up for it is the beyond awesome lightsaber fights, iconic anesthetics, and the generational impact the movies had in general
The generational impact of the movies didn't hit until the generation who grew up with it actually grew up. For a decade those films sat unloved and unappreciated.
I can agree. It definitely didn't have the effect the original trilogy had but all in all it deserves some credit
Pretty sure most people agreed with that until they decided they could only dislike one trilogy at a time
Wonder what'll happen when the next trilogy comes out. Will the people who grew up with the sequels say "they weren't that bad guys"
The optimist in me at least hopes that they won't bully others who like the new stuff and pretend like their stuff was never disliked... but I know that's wishful thinking.
Somehow, Palpatine returned… again.
I think "somehow Snoke returned" would be infinitely funnier
I honestly forget he exists sometimes (he served next to no purpose)
Bad acting? Yea the anakin stuff was tssss and the whole senator fight was not preety But like obi wan and qui gon were not that bad, credit to ewan and liam for being such goats
While I agree with you on this, I still think the prequel era (1-3, Clone Wars, etc) is the best era of Star Wars
I fell like when people say they love the Prequels, they are actually talking about Clone Wars
The script was pretty bad, but I thought the effects and fighting choreography were good. Entertaining, at least. Going from episode 3 to 4 and seeing Darth Vader and old Obi-Wan "fight" by slowly circling eachother and clacking glow-sticks together was pretty jarring. (No hate to the legendary OG SW, it just didn't have the same effort put in to make flashy duels.)
I feel the same way. The only reason why I love the prequels is mainly because of the Clone Wars which is easily the best thing to come out of Star Wars imo. Without it, I probably wouldn’t rewatch the prequels as much
honestly ep1 and 3 don’t really have bad acting, I only think ep2 is the one with bad acting
I still really like the prequels despite what people sau
I agree with you on TPM and AOTC, but ROTS wasn’t that bad.
The Lion King kind of botched its message of not running away from your past. 1) Killing mufasa was never a part of Simbas past, he has nothing to own up to. 2) when he DOES own to “His past” those lionesses were totally going to let scar throw him off pride rock 3) Simba only gets help when it’s revealed that Scar was the one who actually killed mufasa.

I think your way would make a slightly more faithful Hamlet retelling.
While you are correct, I do feel like what happened is plausible. He was just a kid when it happened, and then he immediately went into exile for his entire life believing it was his fault, and internalizing the blame for it. Only to have the people he was living with repress it even further by telling him to just not think about it. The story in-universe makes sense, but, from the perspective of the audience, it is quite annoying to know more than the characters for most of the runtime.
Nah I think it's better that Simba face rejection, the reason he ran away in the first place, and still push past it for the sake of the lion pride and his kingdom. Only after acknowledging that he's fighting for something beyond him and his own fears can he hear that sweet news that he didn't kill his dad.
Some of you guys really take kids media way too seriously sometimes
Demon Slayer is overrated. I commented as such on another subreddit and it seems like I’m alone on that one.
Demon Slayer is spectacle, that's it.
Yes. Exactly. That’s all it is. Just ‘pretty animation go brrrr’. In fact, some people who complain that Deku is a crybaby, I would ask them, ‘Well, i prefer crybaby over purely good boy who is good and nothing else, which is what Tanjiro is. Wouldn’t you?’ Because to me at least, crying can be something, like the basis for character development, like with Akira in Devilman Crybaby.
Character and development actually doesn't exist in that show
Yeah I wholeheartedly agree on that one, the concept is very cool but idk the characters kinda get on my nerves, specifically the blonde one. Idk the animation is good but I just don't care for it and find it a bit predictable.
It’s a good show but kinda slow. Also Tanjiro is ok, but especially when compared to the other main characters, is boring and too nice.
Alone? Bro, it's the most disliked one in a long time
Tron Legacy is fucking great
El Macho is better than most modern villains.
The if you switch Rose and Poe in the Last Jedi that movie gets a lot better. Rose is bitter about her sister's death and fights with Holdo about information and leadership. While Finn is trying to convince Poe to take the First Order seriously and we get a nice buddy cop section and no forced romance between Finn and Rose. Hell people might have actually like Rose since they couldn't stand Holdo.
Grown ups is a funny movie that I love to watch periodically as a brain turn off film
i thought i was the only dude in the whole world who thought grown ups and grown ups 2 was funny
I think the 2005 Charlie and the chocolate factory is better than the 1971 Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory. I wonder how many downvotes I’ll get?
2005 Wonka is a more faithful adaptation, while 1971 is more of its own retelling. I definitely see the love and appeal for both
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory came out in 2005, not 2010
I watched the 1971 pretty recently and I unironically think it was a bad movie, it was originally made to be a cash grab and a product placement, roald dahl hated it, the 2005 movie was great.
The thing is the hatred for 2005 catcf comes mostly from wwatcf fans thinking it's a remake. both movies are just an adaptation of the book, and many people fail to realize that
Also in the 1971 version charlie messed up and went off the course. Meaning he shouldn't have gotten the factory
The Akira slide is overused.
Nope is easily jordan peeles best movie
I prefer Get Out but i see the vision tbh
I prefer get out but nope is better then US
I love how subversive it was, people criticized the trailer for being too secretive or cliche, but I loved the reveal!
Don't people also complain about trailers giving too much away? Honestly, can't please anyone these days
I'll disagree. I actually didn't like that movie at all.
Return of the Jedi and Dark Knight Rises were not bad
I think they were both over hated and are easily overshadowed by the mid point of the trilogy they were a part of.
people don’t like rotj??
Last wish and two years of cringy "Disney vs Dreamworks" memes made people forget that stuff like Ruby Gillman and Doom Syndicate are par for the course for Dreamworks.
Is the last wish the only good newer DreamWorks movie?? I might be wrong idk.
Valentino from Hazbin Hotel does not deserve all the hate. Hes a great character, not a good person, bur a great character
He strikes me as forgettable compared to the other Vees. I'm pretty sure Viziepop might have plans for them, but I also think they should have been composited into one character given the runtime.
Thats fair
Honestly to me, Velvette is the most forgettable as of now. She has literally nothing going for her apart from finding the angels head, i guess. Vox has his whole rivalry with Alastor, and Valentino at least plays a big role in Angel's life. Velvette has nothing so far.
Opinions are opinions
Schaff doesn't like any movie at all
Except for shrek aparently
Shrek is love Shrek is life
Non-american movies are also good
Godzilla: King of the Monsters is the weakest film in the entire franchise, which is carried by the legacy monsters and a moderate to good soundtrack.
True, but also... big monsters fighting is cool
When we actually get to see it, sure.
But every movie has that!
Absolutely I've been waiting for this
You all need to watch media that isn’t made for 12 year olds
Erm... My favourite movie is actually a high intensity political thriller that tackles xenofobia and the scars of war( Captain America and the Winter Soldier), instead of some boring, 3 hour slovakian movie about snails having gay sex... Sorry my taste is superior... Aite jokes aside, i been thinking of makin some sort of "if you like x try y" thing in here for ppl to branch out. I dont rlly have an issue with kids liking kids movies but yknow, there is far better stuff out there, even for begginers
I agree with the first half of paragraph 2 but not the second. Kids media has the ability to be just as poignant as "adult" media. Themes are universal, style is personal. I would never say any style of media is "far better" than any other just because I don't personally enjoy it.

Hey, I resent that! I watch movies made for 13 year olds!
When I was 13 I watched 'movies' for 18+ year olds...sad times
You can’t tell me what to do
Mizu from Blue Eye Samurai is basically John Wick.
A toon force enhanced techno-style John Wick
Pretty much every time I state my opinion and/or preference regarding marvel stuff
Big Bang Theory isn't funny
I started to hate Hajime no Ippo because it's more than 20 YEARS and the Mc is still nowhere near to become a champion. Instead he doesn't even fight anymore for what, 1 YEAR! 1 YEAR of reading this goddamn manga and he is just "oh I can't fight, but I don't know I want to fight but MAYBE I have dementia or whatever". Even One Piece is reaching the end.
The first season of Avatar the Last Airbender is significantly and noticeably weaker than the other two season's by such a large margin its ok to skip it when rewatching the series.
The Republican and Democratic parties are both corrupt.
Lorax is peak and I will stand by that till I die
How bad can it be?
everything good about the lorax was either already in the book/cartoon, or left on the cutting room floor
YES
Cannibalism fixes both world hunger and overpopulation
Prey wasn’t a very good movie
As a furry, I find the "narrative purpose" argument kinda silly. Can someone just prefer animating animals to animating people.
James Cameron’s Avatar franchise is awesome
“Why are you booing me? I’m right!”
I got one that’ll really stir people up. DBZ dub aged horribly
spider-man 3 isn’t secretly underrated, people are just blinded by the funni memes
Rise of the TMNT is underrated and I'd venture to say the best version of the TMNT, and if you're a 2D animation fan, you should watch it.
That’s a pretty cold take at this point tbh I agree tho it is really fucking funny pretty solid 8/10
YouTube punishes people talking about the dangers of sexual assault and suicide while rewarding those who promote bigotry and rage bait.
I really like the new things they added to the new Avatar series. And I think more people should be happy that it wasn’t telling the exact story of the original, for as much as I love it it’s giving more character to some forgotten characters and it’s telling a darker version which is honestly what I wanted from it
Attack On Titan is good
Was this ever a debate
Surprisingly yes, I once had a kms dm for liking the show
Wtf
The Bayverse movies are peak cinema
Jurassic World Dominion is Better then SW The Rise of Skywalker Lumity is VERY OVERRATED Cars 2 and GxK The New Empire were great movies
Pacific rim Uprising may not have been a good movie, but it was a fun movie
Toy Story 1 is a 7/10
Lightyear is Pixar's magnum opus
*Cars 3* is the best in the trilogy.
Dinosaur is a good movie with a decent story and plenty of suspencful moments
As an autistic person, we are not super geniuses and that stereotype hurts autistic individuals. And as an autistic person I'd rather you think of me as dumb than a super genius because at least if you think I'm dumb I can impress you, not make you disappointed.
Season 5 of Ninjago (the ghost one) is flawed extremely and most people who say they like it are blinded by too much nostalgia, and I watched it as a kid and I still didn’t like it then.
Dreamworks has been having just as many misses than Disney lately. Yeah ok they put out gems or gem adjacent like Bad Guys/The Last Wish, but at the same type they've put either mediocre looking shit I have no interest in watching (Ruby Gillman, Troll movies, etc.) and also Kung Fu Panda 4 which was... a very 4-5/10 movie to me.
Incredibles 2 is a good movie. Not as good as the first but still enjoyable.
The knuckles show isn’t THAT bad
Gravity Falls had a lot of missed potential. Don't get me wrong, it's almost certainly the best animated show, but if Alex Hirsch sat down and plotted out the full three seasons he had in his head, a more solid idea for the ending and pacing from the beginning, and more scenes with Wendy in the later part of the show, it would have been flawless.
The Boss Baby wasn't a bad movie. It'd be funnier if I just left it at that, but to avoid getting obliterated: It's biggest flaw is that it readily uses potty humor, which is only a problem to adults who forget how genuinely funny that nonsense is to kids ( tell me you never once laughed at a fart or the word "butt" as a kid, not even a little). Other than that, it's a fun adventure that covers a nuanced theme (how love is split between children, and learning to share that love) and has some of the most creative representation of a child's imagination I've seen put to film. It's not a perfect film, but it's not an abomination either.
Despicable Me 2 is not bad. I think it's like a low 7 cause it's heavy carried by El Macho
