Entirely subjective. I think it’s shite,

It is though, but a little more as to why people think something is shite or not is useful, rather than I didn’t enjoy it or not to my taste – neither of which make something shite.

Okay, as previously stated I find once you’ve seen one mafia film you’ve seen them all. I genuinely get Casino and Goodfellas confused. They blend in to one, overly long, predictable film with cliche characters.

With it being subjective if I think it’s shit then, to me, that is exactly what makes it a bit shite. Opinions are great 👍🏼

Entirely subjective. I think it’s shite,

Agree it’s subjective. But shite? Script is top notch, editing , cinematography, performances are all fabulous. Sense of time and place…

Shite is harsh for a well crafted piece of cinema.

Raiders of the Lost Arc seems like a great shout to me . If you want to be entertained for a couple of hours I don’t really see how you could not enjoy it . No doubt I’m about to find out 🙂

I will bet a pizza on Ramsey Neil is watching Raiders of the lost Arc tonight.

I think the answer is no, we can’t agree on one

Who’d have believed the ONE would be Tremors? A trshy little horror, with Kev Bacon of all people 😀

 How could you not like it ?

Cos it’s rubbish 😂

I’d be (somewhat) surprised at anyone not liking:

The Apartment

Top Hat

Gone With The Wind (although it may be a tad long for some)

Invasion Of The Body Snatchers

Midnight Run

I’m in a FB group called Last Exit To Nowhere Collective, spin-off from the t-shirt company.

Anyway the only film that this collection of uber-geeks agrees on is

John Carpenters, The Thing

And they are right.

Everything else is just varying degrees of fluff.

Apocalypse now

Dead Man’s shoes

Raiders of the lost Arc. A film so great it’s fans can’t even spell the title correctly.

In Bruges. What do I win?

Young Frankenstein.

2001

Up

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid.

Seven Samurai

Raiders Of the Lost Ark

North By North West

Downhill – 4 old uni mates do Coast to Coast walk – love this film though no one has ever heard of it.

Ghostbusters

Everybody likes  Ghostbusters

the original, not the shite chick flick I’m currently watching

The Gods must be Crazy

Eddiebaby Surely you don’t think I’m talking about that Harrison Ford nonsense . This is the one about a man trying to find his lost welding equipment . Truly riveting , until he finds his welder 🙂

Bridget Jones….

Ghost…

39 Steps…

Fifty Shades of Pink

Everybody likes  Ghostbusters

Never seen it.

In Bruges! ( She’s in it 😀 My GF)

Never seen it.

In which case, you are weird.

More like Wired…

Has anyone mentioned Point Break yet?

Or does it belong in rubbish films that are actually good? 🙂

Everybody likes  Ghostbusters

Not me.

Ski School

Twin Town

Big Wednesday

All classics in their genres. I cannot conceive that anyone could possibly disagree with me 😉

I’d be (somewhat) surprised at anyone not liking:

I’d be somewhat surprised at anyone having even heard of all of those.

I may have missed it, but I can’t quite believe this has run to four pages and no-one’s mentioned Back to the Future.

The Breakfast Club.  Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.  Weird Science.  Actually, pretty much any John Hughes movie.

The Princess Bride, already nominated but +1 here.  The Terminator, Aliens, Total Recall, Die Hard.

Pretty much any Pixar.  The Wrong Trousers.

I’d suggest Star Wars but I expect there’ll be someone out there hating on it just to appear rangy and interesting.

Temple of Doom / Lost Ark.

Die Hard / DH2.

Skipped from page 1 to here, so just going to post my list. Various criteria applied, but they all do what they do extremely well (the best of their kind) IMO.

Blade Runner (pick your favourite cut).

Tremors

Metropolis

There Will Be Blood

A Sunday In Hell

Unforgiven

Brazil

Last Of The Mohicans

and my leftfield suggestion – Moulin Rouge

hot fuzz

Glad someone mentioned Back To The Future. Never met anyone who didn’y enjoy it.

Other choices would be

(original) The Italian Job

The Odd Couple

Chinatown

Tomb Raider

Harry Potter and xxxxxxxxx

Back to the future is brilliant. Every time I watch it I still think Marty won’t make it back at the end. Ferris Bueller is a terrible, terrible person. Never understood how people like it. He’s a complete ****, basically ruined Cameron’s life and failed the ‘don’t be a dick’ test.

Raiders of the Lost Arc seems like a great shout to me . If you want to be entertained for a couple of hours I don’t really see how you could not enjoy it . No doubt I’m about to find out 🙂

As mentioned in The Big Bang Theory, the film moves from set piece to set piece with Indy appearing in all of them but nothing he does has any effect at all. You could take Harrison Ford out of the film completely and still have the same result. 😉

The Scorpion King

Dallas Buyers Club

Sahara

Glad someone mentioned Back To The Future. Never met anyone who didn’y enjoy it.

We’ve never met then? It’s a dull nostalgia fest with heaped up tedious false suspense as a replacement for plot

Spirited Away

Good call on The Thing. I also enjoyed the recentish prequel.

As mentioned in The Big Bang Theory,

Yeah at times it feels like that is how discussion in here goes, a bunch of people living detached from reality viewing films as if they were documentaries and unable to sit back and enjoy 😉

So Bomber would stand in front of the prop and kill himself?

I’ve always enjoyed it honest!! 😂 I thought that  ^ was funny though. I remember a housemate back in the 80s saying he hated it because all Indy did was go from one fight to another. That’s the point..
