[hider=Things not even trying to be about games.] [quote=@Fabricant451] Careful, your mask is slipping [/quote] [s][i]Why did you make a separate post just to add this?[/i][/s] Your excellent sense of humor is showing as always. [quote=@Fabricant451] What are you talking about, one of the most acclaimed movies of the last year involved multiverse and had rules and explained itself without any complication or convolutions while also telling a story that resonated with people. [/quote] Going to bat for Multiverse of Madness are we? Man, you'll argue contrarian for just about anything, won't ya? [quote=@Fabricant451] Hollywood is no stranger to complicated movies, and your opinion on the Minions aside those movies are still well received. [/quote] That's nice. [b][i]But I want good movies.[/i][/b] And whatever one considers "well received", doesn't exactly make it good, nor worth the multi-millions that it cost to produce. [quote=@Fabricant451] Hollywood doesn't even do "it was all a dream" stuff anymore. And they're likely to produce a solid 3/5 movie about a plumber with no real personality. [/quote] I don't rate movies above average, let alone highly, when their characters have no personality. But different strokes. And there's modern movies that still have that trope/pointless dream sequences in them. So... [quote=@Fabricant451] Just because you think Hollywood is some monolithic thing producing bad content, doesn't make it so, and that just says you're not seeking out movies. [/quote] Yes, I alone think this. And the way you described how they'd make the movie (by making a few random references with '''an elf''' guy) already sounds terrible enough. Though I'd bet all the money imaginable, that it wouldn't even be *that* well versed in the end product. [/hider] [hr] [@Fabricant451] What fun new movies are you looking forward to this year? John Wick 4, Trolls 3, Insidious 5, Spiderman 2, Another f*cking internet found footage movie, The Nun 2, The Meg 2, Insert every marvel and DC movie here, Mission Impossible, Hunger Games, Indiana Jones, Transformers...(I could keep going.) But more seriously, is there anything you're actually expecting to be of excellent quality?
