I've never viewed any of his movies because they look so repellent. I'm not opposed to odd stuff; Lynch is essentially my favorite. Anderson I don't think I can do. Each movie he releases, I consider renting a few of his older and going to it. However, I . . . just . . . can't . . . do it. I need to suck it up and give him a try, though.

This guy clearly doesn't know I wrote citizen Kane and the dark knight.

What??

I love Happy Gilmore, but The Wedding Singer just tops it by a slither for me (mainly due to the soundtrack).

My first dance with my wife at our wedding what ‘Grow Old With You’ from The Wedding Singer (whilst dressed in an inflatable dino suit), so it also has a lot of sentimental value as well.

I do enjoy a movie that is crafted in a fairly genderless way.

Thor: Love and Thunder
There is such a thing as too much Wacko Tahiti.

The Joker I liked it the first time I saw it, when it was called Taxi Driver and King of Comedy.

Million Dollar Baby. 40 shooting days. Clint Eastwood performed, directed, and even played piano. Studio released it juuust in time for Oscar consideration.

If that movie were just released one month later, Annette Bening would've gotten a 2004 Best Actress Oscar for Being Julia and Crash wouldn't be named Best Picture for 2005.

Even though the quirkiness has increased in his films. I don't think the plot has ever been secondary.

If u don't like them then u don't have to watch them.

de nada

Now you made is gross

Same here. I enjoyed it, but for me it wasn’t a masterpiece everyone else thinks it is.

My list will shift and be cemented after it's finished. But it's roughly where I think things sit.

That's cool. Tons of directors are similar in that sense. Don't like it? Watch another movie, there are thousands of new movies every year. I'd say over half of all theatrical releases are absolute garbage but I never run out of amazing films to discover.

You're demanding Hood to start making shoes and Nike to get into the milk business. Don't hold your breath.

Amelie. Quirky foreign film is right up my alley, but for whatever reason I just did not like it.

Nobody brings the twee like Wes!

Right but this isn’t a discussion, it’s just “I hate quirkiness and also Zooey Deschanel”

Yea. I think Antman was the worst offender for me.

It literally ripped away all the uniqueness of the first 2 films. The 2nd movie wasn't even that good of a movie, but it still had a ton of redeeming properties you can identify. The same ones that made the original funny and entertaining in the first place.

But Quantumania ripped all that away for quick jab attempts at comedy that does absolutely nothing for the characters. There's only 2 good scenes in that movie (the probability thing and the ending fist fight scene) but they fall completely flat because none of it is earned or built up to. Its called Antman and the Wasp and we never get meaningful interaction between the 2 except in those scenes.

Didn't mean to rant about Quantumania, but i genuinely had hope for it (no pun intended) and it ended up being the worst offender yet.

I love every one of them. Love his style and his sentimentality. Everyone is a delight to watch

I guess this is win win yeah? You get enjoyment out of watching us tell you to move on with your life and we get enjoyment out of downvoting what has become a hissy fit.

Oh boy, that's a tough question to answer my man.

But it's a adaptation of a theatrical piece by Ariano Suassuna.

In the words of Suassuna himself, the character João Grilo (the short one) "fights against the rural patriarchy, the urban bourgeoisie, the police, the bandits, and even the devil".

It has a lot of religious elements and typical mannerisms of people from the northeast region of the country. It's a very good movie, i couldn't touch all his points here with my limited english.

The quirkiness you dislike is something your missing. Some people just can’t get it.
