--Yes! I was talking about that with a friend weeks ago. I mean. How do they make a living when people are so swayed by blockbusters.

--Woof.. tough man to please. Not exactly the audience comedians want for stand up. Haha!

--There is such amazing cinema out there which doesn't make even a million dollars, but beats the absolute pants off these big blockbusters. Shame

--Partially true, but honestly, it's not that either. I honestly think they make really retarded movies that shove the same contrived shite things down our throats bit with different explosions and dick jokes and ... the cattle that we are lap it up.

--I can enjoy that with my friends for sure, but to have that dumb shit shoveled at me after paying for it and all the hype I heard about the movie was just mind boggling. I am not going to another hollywood hyped blockbuster, superhero movie Ever again....ever

--Huh. I thought Interstellar was good. Like how people get inside some other guy's dream! Ahh... bendy worlds!
13 Jul 18:11
--The new star wars was boring asf and I like the star wars universe, even the shit prequel episodes. Interstellar was the highest rated sci fi ever and it was excruciating for me. And I love the science aspect of it...bit still hated it

--But yeah, don't ever let any one else's opinion on anything sway you....especially for movies. I stopped listening tonanyone about movies

--I like critics. Most of them are heavily invested into the craft of whatever they are criticising, and most are way more informed than the average idiot who blows 30 bucks on a rehas, remake, travesty of a movie that the entire retarded population of humanity seems to like :)

--@Eyli: Bah. Makes me want to eat fish 95% of the time. Haha! (But I heard it was a great movie!)

--It's pointless in my opinion to rate and judge things that are inherently subjective, which includes most if not all, creative endeavours. It's not that there isn't a way to determine skill and merit and craft, but that 99% of us are too selfish and motivated by our own views. Wrt of more people like it, it's good. Lord. Justin Bieber, The Kardashians, Trump. Fascism. nope, that argument does not stack up.
13 Jul 18:07
--Because critics are full of malarkey that's how! I hope they stop deciding for me which one is better! The point system sucks. I can't talk back at them (unlike/like the YT commenting system). It's imposing!

--Here we go. Casino, revered as one of Scorsese's best. Great story, great acting. Great shooting. 80% tomato. And Star Wars Force Awakens beat Casino by 10 points? How!
13 Jul 17:50
--The new Star Wars was good. But 90% Rotten Tomatoes good? Really? Get outta here! Haha!

--Well, I think it has to do with what is generally seen as good, but if it's not your taste, well.. than it's not your taste :P. I had it with the new Star wars movie, a lot of ppl loved it because of the nostalgy and references to the old movies. Well, I had never seen them and don't watch much Sci-fi in general, so I was bored :p
13 Jul 17:45
--I tried to watch the Revenant just because the critics say it's good. But it just bored the hell out of me!
13 Jul 17:44
--@Eyli: That is true! Yeah. Meta-data is probably the way to go if anyone wants to have a factual basis. But, you know, self proclaimed critics! Not just Internet, magazine, or any publication critics. Even the Oscars!
