It's stupid, but MKO user and best friend xxBSINxx always gives me shit about Bumblebee killing Soundwave in Transformers DOTM since Bee is his favorite transformer and Wave is mine. I still don't hear the end of it.

Before I lost touched with them, two of my book worms have a problem with the Harry Potter series.

It was horribly noticeable when I finally went with them to see the fourth movie. (The Tri Wizard tournament) I don't know the actual story to any of these movies because I don't really enjoy reading books as much as they do, so of course I'm going to be behind on everything.

Every. God. Damned. Scene. One of the girls would complain everything that's wrong because the book had it a different way. I couldn't tell you how many times I had to tell her to shut up. The worse part had to be when Voldemort finally came into the scene for the first time.

She screams, "His eyes are supposed to be red!"

I may have screamed "What a dick" when Hans didn't kiss Anna in Frozen at the theaters, but that was funny. This was just annoyance and got a lot of "shhh" from the crowd around us.

And every time we watched a Harry Potter movie, there they are, arguing what's wrong while I'm just sitting here saying, "Can't you just appreciate the fact that it got turned into a movie?"

Of course... they said no.

My wife and i argue every time we watch "shaving Ryan's privates." I say they got too close to the skin and she says it's just right. Women...

Watchmen. I will argue for it until the goddamn bitter end. Friends saw the shitty theatrical cut after I told them to see the directer's cut or don't bother (movie had been out for awhile). Unsurprisingly they were underwhelmed and slightly confused, thought it was lame. If people wanna say the book is better thats cool, but don't watch a sub par version of the movie and then trash the whole story or I will rip out your throat with my fucking teeth.

The next one will be Godzilla, for sure had some problems and didn't quite deliver on all the hype, but it is not nearly as bad as some people say it was. For real some people talk about this movie like it murdered their families or something, they fucking loathe it. The cut away from the Hawaii fight scene was for sure a kick to the balls though, I will concede that.

Whaaat? Chumps. Had a vaguely similar (inverse) experience in '98 when friends and teacher didn't believe I A) hadn't seen Titanic and B) had no interest in seeing it. Still haven't. Still won't. Suck it.

Dark Knight Rises.

My fanboy brother can't stop sucking the cock of the masked vigilante for anything. This movie has an unbelievably large amount of mistakes ridden throughout it, and it is just plain boring. The 'hero' of the movie NEVER even defeats his enemy, even at the end! This movie sucked beyond what I thought possible for a Batman flick.

That movie IS the worst of all the HP movies, deviating the most from the book. However that still doesn't give your 'friends' the right to spoil it for you. I prefer to save discussion and criticism for after the film ends, then everyone can join in a nice conversation, rather than be intrusive and irritating.



I saw Titanic for the first time earlier this year. I didn't really have much interest in it before, and only watched it because my flatmate just happened to put it on. Better than i expected, but still nowhere near what the hype built it up to be. Also the ending is really lame.

The two movies I like and many of my friends don't are Donnie Darko and Animatrix. The dismissal of DD is usually 'lame emo crap', and no one has given any justification for disliking AniM beyond 'it's shit'. I personally barfed rainbows at both of them. DD for its wonderous depth and twisted convoluted plot, and AniM for being a) better than the following two sequels and b) adding backstory and exposition in a visually remarkable way.

Guardians of the Galaxy.

We always argue whether or not Groot can keep regenerating into more Groots.

My theroy on why Groot regenerated is because when they were *Spoiler alert* holding hands at the end with the infinity stone; Rocket Racoon was holding a piece of Groot, which made the twig grow into a new Groot - while my friend thinks that all you have to do is sucessfully plant one of Groot's twigs in a pot and water it.

Woah, I never thought of that. I was assuming all you had to do was plant and water him.

Interstellar VS Gravity




Sorry folks. Interstellar is the space movie of our generation. Not Gravity.

Do musicals count?

If so, Grease.

One of my besties just couldn't stand the movie and thought it was stupid. It's my second favorite musical of all time. (Rocky Horror #1!!!)

The only logical explanation I can think of is the nostalgia factor. I grew up watching it and she didn't catch it until the late teenage years. Even then I'd think it would be fairly pivotal but nope.

To flip it, she loves The Goonies and The Lost Boys and I didn't really care for either of them. But then I go back to the nostalgia thing, I didn't watch either (and I still haven't seen The Goonies all the way through and I won't) until my 20's. Yet, she grew up with both.

Oh, God. Grease.
Out of all my friends who do like musicals, I'm the only one who can't stand Grease. I just find it so fake and feeble. It's as bad as Guys and Dolls. It's like it tries too hard to be "cool" as do all the characters. I don't really like that "all-American wholesome" period of the 50s-60s anyway and it's got all that high-school poser attitude.

Sorry to be blunt, just trying to give cogent reasons for disliking something rather than the "I don't like it because it's shit" response that most people give me. It's a very annoying response because there's no way to move a conversation on after that.

Ive seen Grease back in the day with the parents on WB11. Not sure if I loved it or hated it.

But hey if you compare it to other musicals, Grease is up there. How many great movie musicals are there anyway ?

It's all good. I respect your opinion, and believe me, I've heard worse about it, lol. Maybe it's just because it was the first musical I'd ever seen, I was an impressionable young'n, and my mom is like the biggest Olivia Newton-John and Travolta fan ever. Oddly enough though, "Hopelessly Devoted To You" is my least favorite song in the movie, but all the rest are complete love.

Also, did ya know "You're The One That I Want" is still one of the best selling singles of all time? Well over 6 million copies sold in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and France alone. As well as reached #1 in Austria, Germany, U.S.A Billboard Hot 100, U.K, Ireland, Finland, and many others.

So at least I know that I'm not alone. There's a ton, dude. Rocky Horror Picture Show, South Pacific, Rent, Chicago, Annie, Into The Woods, The Sound Of Music, Mamma Mia!, The Phantom Of The Opera, West Side Story, Hairspray, Moulin Rouge!, ect, ect. Then you've got more others like - The Nightmare Before Christmas, Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory, The Wizard of Oz, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Mary Poppins, and like every fucking Disney movie lol...Should I continue?

I was told he acts like a phoenix. He dies, he comes back to life.

Aaaaahhh, how could I forget about these classics, specially The Nightmare before Christmas. Good point. Nightmare Before Christmas was so good as a kid back in the day I forgot it was a musical flick to this day.

Yeah, I'm not sure if those are technically considered musicals, but to me, if characters are busting out into songs more than once during a movie (not to mention the whole thing), I see it as a musical. But that's why I separated those.

A few other controversial films between my friends and I are Superbad, Nacho Libre, Pineapple Express, and Tenacious D:Pick of Destiny. I just could not stand those movie. So much in fact, I couldn't even finish most of them. I guess I'm just not big on that dopey lame-brain kind of humor that "comedians" like Jack Black, Seth Rogen, and Steve Carell have to offer.

Nacho Libre was utter garbage. My friends and I couldn't finish watching that either.

I can't believe I completely forgot this one. The same friends from before, we're huge on Disney, okay. I am a die hard Hercules fan, to the point where I even complain that the damn title of the movie is incorrect.

*It should be noted that Hercules is the Roman name while Heracles is the Greek version, since this movie is featuring Greek mythology and not Roman, they should have been more careful titling this movie.


Anyways, Meg is my all time favorite Disney character besides Mickey Mouse and I said, "Meg is the first female to ever die in a Disney movie."

And the friend argues.

She gets crushed by a giant pillar leaving her in the hands of the Sisters of Fate while Hercules/Heracles is saving Olympus from Hades' rule. Hades makes a sneer comment after the Titans get destroyed saying that he's got a friend who's "dying" to see him. This of course leaves us to back and forth cuts to Hercules/Heracles riding Pegasus like crazy towards her, Meg is groaning and the Sisters are pulling her string. It gets cut before he gets to her thus "killing" her.

Her skin turns gray, her body is literally motionless. When he cradles her in his arms she falls completely limp. Her soul literally had to be carried back into her body and her skin goes back to color. She died...

All the princesses never got killed. They either fell into deep sleep or they never had anything death related happen to them. And for some reason these people cannot seem to grasp that Meg is literally the first Disney woman to die in a Disney movie.

(I'm not counting any animals because they're not human. I'm strictly referring to humans. I am also strictly referring about the good female characters, not the evil ones.)
