Napoleon Dynamite. The main thing I got from the movie was that know I know where a meme comes from.
I’ve never understood the fascination people had/have with this movie.
When this came out I went to the ends of the world to get a copy after missing out on all of the references… And then it was fine. I think it’s kinda funny know but I don’t understand how it blew up the way it did
The first Mad Max movie, just feels like a slog at times to get through and when you finally finish it there’s no resolution it’s just a cliffhanger into the next movie.
The Big Lebowski is extremely boring and nonsensical.
I tried twice to watch The Godfather and fell asleep both times. Nothing about it caught me at all.
It bored me. Tried the second one, didn’t get better.
So i’m not the only one.
Synecdoche New York. Every one of my friends who’ve seen it think it’s brilliant. I tried watching it and felt like I was losing my mind. I know that’s the point, but that doesn’t make it a good movie!
I fucking love that movie. It’s like my number 1 of all time. But I’m glad other people don’t like it because that gives me hope for humanity lol
Donnie Darko.
Not a terrible movie, just an extremely odd film of which I have never understood the cult following.
Nah, it was at least a little terrible.
I always recommend watching the director’s cut. It’s like a totally different movie and gives more context.
How is the sequel?
Lol, we don’t talk about the sequel. If you watch his other movies and interviews, it’s clear that Donnie Darko’s director was actually terrible and just managed to accidentally make something amazing.
I’m afraid to watch the Princess Bride because everyone I know loves it and begs me to watch it and I’m afraid it will be terrible and when they ask me how it was I’ll have to lie
Princess Bride is probably one of those movies where it is tied to the moment in which you watched it and not just a movie to watch by yourself. Watch it with friends first.
pulp fiction is just not my thing :)
Mean Girls is ok. It has some good meme quotes, but it isn’t really a good movie.
Maybe not a cult classic but the highly praised adaptation of Little Women (2019). It did not have the positive flow and feel compared to the 1994 version. Also, having a 22 year old actress playing the young version of Amy was not a good choice, her sitting between the other girls at school looked ridiculous.
Big Lebowski … I mean I enjoyed it but not enough to join the cult
Give it another try, I was also confused during my first watch, but now it’s one of my favorite movies
Came here to comment this. I wanted to enjoy it but I just didn’t. I can see myself having good fun with it if I watched it 10-15 years ago but when I did it just didn’t hit where it should’ve
Second this. Did not enjoy watching that
I can’t stand the Fifth Element. On paper, it should be perfect for me but I just find it really obnoxious.
Repo! The Genetic Opera. I could not get into it at all.
No country for old men. I get that it’s supposed to be bleak and not resolve at the end. I still hate that it’s bleak and doesn’t resolve at the end. I didn’t really get the “amazingness” of the coin flip scene either.
I also thought Blade Runner was ok, but the whole “tears in the rain” monologue is so hyped on the internet that it was a bit meh when it actually happened.
No country for old men. I get that it’s supposed to be bleak and not resolve at the end. I still hate that it’s bleak and doesn’t resolve at the end.
Yes! I was expecting more, and was left feeling cheated at the end with no resolution. It felt like wasted time.
I always get hate for this but Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
For years I heard it be revered as the best comedy film of all time, it was hyped up so much, then I finally saw it… And didn’t even laugh once.
That taught me that hype is a powerful thing (look at Cyberpunk for instance), because whatever our mind comes up with, will never live up to the actual final product.
