Essentially the same story yet from a different time. Also ace.
Interesting this it's shit v I don't like it debate.
"It's shit" implies to me that it's a fact rather than an matter of taste.
"I don't like it" suggests that it wasn't your cup of tea but someone else may like it.
But I'd be as guilty as anyone when I'm in a mood.
For instance who could deny the Dan Ackroyd classic 'Nothing but trouble' shares the same DNA as dog muck?
Have to throw in Free Fire as a great film, a very different approach to a gun fight with some great actors in there.
Follow it up with A Field in England - only joking, that is not a film for most people, it's interesting and very dark
(one day I'll learn to spell 'coens')
Pulp Fiction has to be a contender?
Not with all the Tarantino haterz around.
And you'd never get agreement on the Godfather films either. Even though II is an amazing film with De Niro at his best.
Come on - Thunderbolt and Lightfoot? That's gotta be one, hasn't it?!
Worst suggestion so far - Notting Hill. I'm mean WTF!??!

probably belongs in the cult films section though.
Oi; I said cult!
Heard an interview with a classical conductor
Shit music 😉
“It’s shit” implies to me that it’s a fact rather than an matter of taste.
“I don’t like it” suggests that it wasn’t your cup of tea but someone else may like it.
Where are the guidelines for something being shit for a fact versus opinion. I think I need to read them before ever having an opinion on something ever again 🙄
The Darjeeling Limited

Notting hill (again) because of the scene where MrFloppy walks through the market amongst the seasons & the scene where Goofy knocks on his door and utters those immortal words “I’m just a girl, looking for a bloke to love her”
Its sublime.

Well if its getting tricky try using I think it's shit over its shit....
Well if its getting tricky try using I think it’s shit over its shit….
The difference being what exactly?
Neither are saying it’s a fact. This really isn’t difficult. Something that one person finds to be shit can he liked by another. Nothing is shit for a fact. It’s all just opinions
Well one let's us know its simply your opinion the other implies you are the authority on it...
I’d disagree with that statement. I love the pedantry on here. Both are my opinion. Just because it doesn’t meet your personal rules (which I think are shit by the way) for expressing oneself through words doesn’t mean I’m claiming to have any authority. If anyone’s failing to grasp things here I’d say it’s you 😀
I think your shit 😉
I think your shit
I think your spelling is shit.
We’re all shit and Jaws and Toy Story are the only films that aren’t 😁
yeah, got to get them all out into the open....
Lazy criticism that you don't like something is one of those strange things in the modern world, people don't seem to be able to say I don't like something at all. They have to blame the thing for not being what they wanted it to be
A bit like the last jedi

If you want to claim something many other people think is good then give a bit of a reason, or just be lazy and go Shit

What a shit thread
Enjoyable though 😁
What a shit thread
Not good enough Dez. We require a nine page document outlining why it’s shit. You can’t go around having simple reasons for not liking things. Details man, details!
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Fantasia
Debby does Dallas
Haven't been through the whole thread but has any one said Ferris Buelers Day Off yet?
Already struck off. Just Toy Story and Jaws.
Surely not. Anyone dismissed The Princess Bride?
Just watching Leon: the professional now. For the first time in years. It truly is a great film. Oldman is amazing.
Re: the "it's shit" vs "I don't like". I can see (hear) that Amy Whitehouse is an accomplished singer but I don't like her work. It's not to my taste. Some people might take that disinterest as me saying her music is shit but they'd be wrong and misunderstanding what is actually being said.
Back on topic.
Really the criteria for the thread should be: you've invited a load of mates round for a few beers and there's a pile of videos by the TV. Which of the films should be chosen to please most people?
Weekend at Bernie’s.
Debby does Dallas
Debbie
I can see (hear) that Amy Whitehouse is an accomplished singer
You can hear better than I can then, cos she sounds like a shit pub singer to me.
Anyway, that Amy film is ok, but not great.
Ferris Bueler is a kids' film.
I’ve always really liked
Harvey
released in 1950, but absolutely timeless classic
Debbie
Debz
That's a very different brand of porno 😉
Debby does Dallas

FIFY
Toy Story 3 has to be up there with The Princess Bride, shirley?
And the Wizard of OZ - who doesn't like that? 🙂
Wizard of Oz has musical numbers. Musicals are the devil.
Ferris Bueler is a kids’ film.
Ferris fails the ‘Don’t be a dick’ rule 24 times for every minute of screen time. I’m sure there is an extended cut out there with a post credits sequence. Said sequence is footage of Cameron’s funeral and his Father being arrested for murder.
Even West Side Story?
Especially West Side Story 😕
Willi Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Gene Wilder version)
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
The Muppet Movie
Ferris Bueler is a kids’ film.
...and your point is??
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
Charlie Brown is awful American trash.
…and your point is??
Dunno about you, but I ain't a kid no more 😀
And if you're gonna have a kids' film:

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
Charlie Brown is awful American trash.
Thats quite a statement, any reason for the hate?
Oi! Deliverance! Watching it now... anyone not like Deliverance?!
It’s a Wonderful Life
La Haine
Life is Beautiful
Anchorman
UP . How can you not like that ?
