The potential for being in a theater with a fun audience was part of the "draw" (or appeal) for me anyway. Seen some average Bond films I remember as great because of the audience. If you were in an audience where at least 1 person had an infectous laugh, that would cause more people to laugh... When I lived in MD some pretty awful films were saved by the comedy genius of a few young black women. (they made us all laugh) anyway I only mention race because the white girls never said anything. @@farrellmcnulty909

Agree with them or not, Siskel and Ebert stand out from modern critics by being well-versed in film, literature, and story-telling, and thus give concise explanations as to why movies are good or SUCK. Also, that Scarlet Letter movie sound god awful, and the repeated use of “noisy” to describe a Michael Bay movie is so humorously simple while undeniably accurate.

@tigerburn81 10 ай бұрын

Many movie critics, especially in small market TV stations and newspapers, weren't actually movie critics at all. The popularity of S&E led media outlets to create their own movie review pieces in news, and they were often filled with news writers who took the job because they were re-assigned to it, or for the extra paycheck. I remember a story of a small TV station filled the movie reviewer role with a former weekend weatherman.

It was not made for you, a person comfortable with clichés and stereotypes. Born to only perceive African Americans as mere side characters, where you felt at ease. I'm more of a Siskel and Ebert fan than you ever can think you are, and I assure you, neither of them would have an issue with a mermaid being portrayed by an actress who is black. They wouldn't parrot some politician from Florida or repeat soundbites. They were champions of REPRESENTATION. Especially Ebert and his African American wife.

Armageddon is my default answer for my most hated movie. It insults the intelligence constantly, shows "heroes" in space fighting in complete disregard for how injuries could stop the mission dead, lazily riffs on actual good movies especiall The Right Stuff, and the bombardment of mindless spectacle set the tone for soulless junk blockbusters ever since. Forget Ed Wood, Michael Bay is the worst director because he has resources to make films, and they are absent any crucial sense of humanity - nothing to say, nothing is sacred, characters, 1 dimensional & obnoxious. And oh, the forced sentimentality like a commercial for the American military or something, sickening propaganda style manipulation with every slick production trick in the book. I was dying to leave the theater but stayed because of friends. Ever since though when a movie makes me feat *scummy* like that trash, I get the hell out of there.

I recall looking forward to Stargate, I wanted to like it. All I remember is being bored and confused.

Hated their StarGate review. Shouldn’t be treated like trash. Like the other moves they discussed.

Swing Kids vs. The Godfather: better movie?

@DeWin157 10 ай бұрын

Swing Kids, and I hate musical dancing films, I enjoyed it because it's based on real history.

Stargate is a terrible movie. Saw it opening day in an empty theater. I wish I saw their review before going.

@@CyanideSublime I'm glad you mentioned Independence Day. I always mixed these two movies up since they're both bad in the same way, but you're right, Armageddon is definitely the worst.

It was one of the first American films in the Criterion Collection

It wasn't that bad. There are many many more worst movies than that. You probably cried at the end.

So why are they blurring out scenes that played on TV with NO restrictions at all? PG, guys. Come on. Are people so easily triggered? Little mean squeaking goblins are blurred out. Sad.

I loved Armageddon, as a child, or at least, I remember liking parts of it. I don't think it was until I watched Pulp Fiction, totally, that I realized on some level consciously or sub- that movies could be truly entertaining the entire time, rather than having the parts you kind of just glaze through.
