I bought the DVD on spec, as everyone seemed to love it and I was going offline for a couple of weeks.
What a dog that was. Gave it away by bitching about it and waiting for someone to support it.

Come on! Robert Downey Jr did such a great job in that one.
I do say that it is a one time watch film, as it will be very boring even if I watch it after a few years.
Literally every thor movie OTHER than Thor Ragnarok. They're just stale and full of lore that I don't care about, also the older ones are so dark I can't see anything. Ragnarok is SO funny to me and I was hoping Thor: Love and Thunder (the sequel) would be like that too but it was just too lore heavy for it to really latch onto me :(
Perhaps I just have the brain of a 12 year old that laughs at a guy getting hit in the head with a big rubber ball but like I'm in the movie for a good time, not note taking 😭
Ragnarok and Guardians Of The Galaxy feels like fun short story books that's like 200 pages and has images while the others feel like the 4th book in a series that's like 500 pages each.
that being said I know hardly nothing about the marvel universe past basic stuff, so it's probably just me 😅
(also I don't know box offices, I just know what my peers opinions are on them)
The princess bride, mostly because everyone my age won't shut up about it. By the time I saw the movie (I think I was 16?) it was like watching a string of cheesy memes.
Also, it's a wonderful life is so frustrating and depressing, the "happy ending" just doesn't cut it.
Kubrick's version of The Shining. Most likely, I would feel differently had I not read the novel first, but the reduction of the story to a Nicholson-show pisses me off to the point where I cannot enjoy it for what it is. I'd rather endure the over four hours of less brilliant screenplay of the 1997 version.
