Controversial film opinions

[FlyingLotus]

Ferris Bueller is a cocky, thieving shithouse. If he nicked and crashed my vintage Ferrari, he’d need more than a’day off’ to recover.

Totally agree, found him to be unbearable.

 

[Maravilla]

Even the Godfather 1 and 2? Classics.

So good that not even the presence of the god-awful Talia Shire can tarnish them in any way.

 

[riffraff]

Independence Day was the beginning of the end, where fancy CGI fully became a mainstream substitute for good plot and acting.

Oh there’s been substitutes for good plots and acting around for as long as fillums have been made.

 

[Grimes]

Majority of films coming out over the past 10 year or so are really devoid of any colour. It’s like they have a greyish filter over it. I think I read recently they’re doing it for realism but it looks stupid imo and there’s nothing real about it when they’re sticking this filter on top of some Disney make believe rubbish.

Sound mixing has also been very poor. Some films I’ve found the dialogue to be barely audible to the point of putting subtitles on.

 

[riffraff]

Mafia films are shit

Givower man. That’s like saying ”war fillums” are shit or “western fillums” are shit or “costume dramas” are shit. Some are some aren’t so errrrh yer reet that’s a controversial opinion……….as you were.

That’ll be the shite speakers in yer modern day tellys caused by their thinnes apparently. Youd almost think the tv manufacturers want us to shell out for extra hardware to be able to hear whats on their tellys.

I always thought the wedding scene at the start of 1, she's quite genuine. Awful in 3 like when she turns into Mrs Mafia

Then there's Sophia Coppola

The green mile is shit and boring

I’ve had trouble in the pictures too mind, I’ve heard some of the Nolan films are terrible for it pardon the pun

Spot on and the actor has never made a decent film before or since. Absolutely dreadful as wooden as a fence post. Plus he lost control of his car in Ireland and killed someone for which I think he got off with a 500 quid fine or something ridiculous like that. Still he’s married to that insufferable horse Sarah Jessica Parker so I suppose karma worked its way.

That's going to get a reaction. Watch your Letterboxd

Perhaps shit a bit harsh but I just don't rate it. I don't particularly rate forest gump either tbf

Whilst there is digital stuff in there, the majority of Independence Day was shot using miniatures and practical effects.

I'm not too bothered either way, I just thought of that pun and then went looking for an opinion to reply to

That reminds me

Tom hanks is boring

I'd love to disagree but I don't rate him. Mind he's decent in saving private Ryan

All American films of that era with the ‘Brat Pack’ and their peers were like pulling teeth. Even Lost Boys is only rescued by a couple of decent tracks. The 80s really was a cultural stink bomb.

He's great in Torch Song Trilogy in his own annoying way.

 

[The Freshest Kid]

Timothee Chalamet is awful.

I don't like the pianist.
