There was a Disney TV show back in 1991 called "The 100 lives of Black Jack Savage". My brother and I were super into the show and then it was suddenly canceled. Turns out it's considered one of the worst shows of all time.

Don't listen to other people. They thought the Transporter series was good.
The real tragedy is believing a movie you loved is bad just because of what randos think of it.
Tank girl. I don't care I fucking love the music number and it is quottable
It was swell, but... swellings gone down.
I still kinda like Nickelback. I never understood all the hate
I usually have it the other way around. I'll watch something, think it's bad only to discover it has 90% on Rotten Tomatoes.
And it's impossible to know if they're artificial or if people actually like garbage.
Yes, that's the other problem. Luckily I'm sailing the high seas so I don't waste money.
Waterworld is one of my favourite movies.
.. did it get a bad rating?
I thought it was decent
It got a bad return, which is even worse from the perspective of the studio. It was just an absolute production clusterfuck. From stunt coordination in aquatic environments to building an entire goddamn aquatic environment when the weather refused to work with the filming schedule, it was just an absolute nightmare for everyone involved. The production costs ended up like triple the original amount and the opening box office weekend made back life half of it.
A lot of people, including Kevin Costner think it's a bad movie, I think it's awesome.
Not one mention of Battlefield Earth? Really?
Yes, it's a terrible movie. Nobody watching this (except maybe John Travolta) ever thinks its a good movie. But it is.
You just have to shut your brain off entirely. Johnny alien (travolta) runs around like an English major high on bath salts. Thousand year old military tech works flawlessly. Humans are so dumb they literally cant tell gold ore and solid gold ingots apart. The dumb humans manage to build and deploy a nuclear weapon in 7 days. Its so horrifically, nut crushingly stupid that it swings all the way around to comedy.
I taught the guy who built miniature sets for that movie. I didn't teach him how to build the sets, I taught him how to do multimedia presentations for hockey arenas.
You know, I can see a lot of hockey arena in the CGI stuff at the end. He must have talked about your set design to the rest of the set crew.
I don't want to give you bad news, but I guess...well, he's not behaving as if he's all that clear on how to do multimedia presentations for hockey arenas, is he? I mean, it's probably not your fault, but it sure looks like he's missed the mark entirely, what a goof!
That was after his work on the movies
I try to avoid "Earth"flicks because they all have long backstory of why Earth is not the Earth we know.
That's actually one of the few worthwhile "twists" from either the book or the movie in my opinion. I like the idea of a past "earth" in the sense of our modern one being so thoroughly beaten and destroyed that it is no longer recognizable. Taking a "primitive" human and showing them how great humanity once was is one of the cooler ways to reflect on the work of mankind, imo.
Really liked Lucky Number Slevin. I wasn't a fan of Lucy Liu until that movie ... then I looked it up later and was like "oh, thought the RT score on this would have been better ...."
I like that one, too. I quote it regularly.
For me it was people shitting on TRON:Legacy. I saw it opening weekend in 3D by myself. Fucking loved it. Saw it a second time the following weekend with my gf at the time. She was indifferent to it. I still loved it. Then other people would bash it and even The Big Bang Theory jumped on the tron bashing bandwagon. As far as I care, everyone else is wrong, that movie was amazing for a reboot.
That movie was amazing. And even if you don't like the movie itself you'd have to admit the music is one of the best soundtracks ever made for a movie.
Other peoples opionions of stuff I enjoy does not effect my enjoyment.
Happened to me after watching Thor 2 during covid. I enjoyed it. Looked it up afterwards and it was ranked the worst movie in the MCU up until that point.
That’s why I ignore any sort of reviews when deciding what I should watch. If something looks interesting, I give it a try. I’m not going to let a bunch of miserable assholes who think hating something makes them interesting decide what I get to enjoy.
What's worse is watching a movie years after release, liking it and wondering why there is no sequel. Only to find out one person involved raped everybody.
I hope that's oddly specific and not a common occurrence.
That's why I've stopped looking up movies after I watch them. My opinions do not need to be validated.
From my first viewing in the theatre in 2013 in Singapore until this very second I really like the first Pacific Rim. It could have been really really bad but in the end it’s a movie with heart and you root for the characters. The CG is exceptional and the Robots and Monsters move extraordinarily well!
Nobody doesn't at least like Pacific Rim. No, you too at least like Pacific Rim, person who is about to Um Ackchually me, you're just in denial.
I like Super Troopers. It is sometimes just what you need.
Super troopers was fucking amazing.
My relationship with Morbius.
Sure, the acting and dialogue is bum, but the story, pacing, etc isn't that bad.
CGI, while not great by any means, does it's job.
I'd give it a solid 6/10 rather than the absolutely abysmall ratings given to it officially.
My experience with watching the movie was seeing it streamed on Twitch shortly after release, chroma-keyed just slightly so that anything blue-ish instead showed an endless loop of Milo’s ridiculous sex dance. I think it was the streamer’s attempt to bypass automatic DMCA protections.
This went on 24/7 for about a week or so. I must have watched the full movie this way 8 times or so. It was magical.
Look at this guy who cannot think for himself and lives as a cellular autonama in the forces of peer pressure from those he sells his will to
