It is absolutely terrible. Just because I use hyperbole in thread titles doesn't mean I'm playing a role.

The movie sucks arse. Pretty sure everyone involved in the production believes so too

There aren't many things in life that get Carson's approval. I am pretty cynical but he takes it to a whole other level. It has to suck to not enjoy anything.

Carson's schtick is bordering on LucasP territory IMO.

I have one shtick and its on the food and drink board

Ask everyone on my fb friends list, I'm very opinionated about movies IRL as well. My opinions on here are true

Yall never bring up how often I say good things about good movies. Everyone focuses on the negative stuff.

it just seems like you hate EVERYTHING...that just seems like it really sucks. I mean, is Armageddon a great movie, no, not at all, but it is mindless popcorn movie fun, and there is nothing wrong with liking those type of movies, even though they "suck".

i would really love to see you start a thread with a list of movies you love

I get 0 stimulation from movies like that. I don't hate everything, because I generally don't watch movies that I think will suck. I just have high standards and am very particular about certain elements that have to be present.

I assure you, the list in that thread would be expansive. Like I said, nobody acknowledges when I praise w movie

It's a pretty great movie. I asked the question because it's hard for me to believe that a living human has as bad of taste as your character. Not including Rex of course. I mean, you're always wrong. It's better than checking a review site because I can just see what you hate and pretty much guarantee it will be entertaining.

Without question my favorite "hollywood" type of movie. Sure, some silliness. But overall funny and entertaining and with a heart.

I believe I specifically talked about your praise for Ex Machina in this very thread, actually.

And it seems that you say something positive about anything so very little that all we remember is the negative shite...so much so that it honestly comes off as a schtick (which is why I said what I said above).

Cuz that's a real thing! Haha.

It is a good movie when viewed as a comedy. Ha.

The thing I never quite understood, was the whole armadillo thing Bruce Willis' patented design or was it just the drill arm attached to it?

Then why did you watch it? All of these movies you hate, there is no secret what kind of movies they are before you watch them. Is it just so you can hate on them?

Seems like you need to tweak your radar a little bit then because you sure do watch a lot of movies that "suck"

I realize that, that's why i said ALL of these movies you hate. i wasn't talking specifically about Armageddon.

Now you see me


it may very well be terrible, i don't know, i haven't seen it...but you knew going in what kind of movie it would be and you weren't a kid when you saw it, you posted that just a few days ago.


i didn't go digging through your posts, i just happen to remember that one cause it was very recent. Im sure if i did i could find a better example as this isnt really a popcorn movie

I gave Now You See Me the benefit of the doubt because I saw it was written by the guy who wrote Men In Black (a great movie). big mistake

Just the Drill arm. They had to train to drive the armadillo.... And why would he need that on an oil rig.
