You haven't truly wasted time until you sit through even a few minutes of this epic that a former coworker recommended (I should have caught the snarky smirk when he recommended it) ...

Alien Versus Ninja

Am I the first to say Serenity? no idea how that didn't make page 1.


and i mean the Matthew mcconaughey and Anne Hathaway one. Not the awesome one with Nathan Filion.

honorable mention is Honeymoon with Rose Leslie. no matter what you're told, do not watch this under any circumstances.

Snowpiercer


Good God, that film is so disturbing and depressing. Not a good time to watch that one.

I saw Proof of Life right after Russell Crowe did Gladiator and that movie was awful. Same for The Beach with DiCaprio

I didnt think the Platform was bad. Just very artsy and a bit confusing. I kept watching because I was waiting for something. What I dont know I was just waiting...lol

And I'll push back on The Beach.

I can see where it was unexpected and different for Leo at the height of his Titanic popularity, but I like it.

Yea, but you're a super fan, so you're biased.

Has nothing to do with that. There's plenty of Leo movies that I don't love.

That one with Russel Crowe. J Edgar.

Ok, so maybe not plenty, but some. Not my fault his batting average is ridiculous.

The Beach is one of those films that I will stop and watch any time it's on...I don't know why. Maybe I just love Danny Boyle films

I didn't mind the beach other than it ruined Koh Phi Phi.

I actually liked it. I thought the metaphorical aspect of it was as subtle as a brick but the acting and dialogue was top notch. Plus at 90 min, it felt like the perfect in and out.

I'm also a sucker for weird, dystopian premises. I can see how the ending would turn a lot of people off.

The Colony (on Hulu which is a hint) got me b/c it had Laurence Fishburne and Bill Paxton. That one starts off interesting enough and then really fades enough to be in the SUCK category.

I could only make it about 20 minutes into the Irishmen and it felt like a bunch of washed up actors trying to relive the glory days. Got bored. Is that one worth investing 3 hours or was I right?

SW die hards will defend TLJ.

SW fans that recognize the main arc is terrible will point to solo and rogue one as some sort of saving grace. But they are both pedantic films but ZOMG 90 SECONDS OF VADER MADE IT THE BEST THING SINCE MUSTAFAR!!juan

I quit the Irishman. It's not bad because Scorsese is so competent, but this is not exactly Casino, is it?

I couldn't finish the Irishman either. Probably what got me the most was De Niro and Pesci playing the young version of their characters. When De Niro beats someone up he has to pause between punches and kicks to keep from falling down. I'm not knocking the guys for being old, but that aspect of the movie was just more than I could get past.

I'm sorry your neurons fire at such a low charge that you think a muscle-man playing a robot trying to kill a waitress is good film making.

Wife and I watched Late Night with Kelly from the office and generic british chick. There's two hours I'm not getting back. I would liken it to a made for TV Devil Wears Prada.

I got an idea let's take that masterpeice "the cube" and inject the social commentary of a 13yo. We can make millions

Hold the Dark on Netflix - terrible movie, makes no sense, director makes giant leaps in logic and expects you to follow.

80% of Nicholas Cage movies after FaceOff or Broken Arrow (Can't remember which one was last)

Broken Arrow
That one was John Travolta and Christian Slater. I think you're probably thinking of The Rock, which was Cage's best movie by far.

Crap! You are right. OK. Face off, ConAir, Gone in 60 seconds - which ever was last, was probably last good Cage movie. The Rock was good too, but I think earlier.
