What? People don't like this?


I'm a huge Arnold fan and people find some of his movies too corny. I think he is great

Honestly its just a great extended music video.


Haha one of the best descriptions for Tron Legacy I have seen.

Oh God, Roland Emmerich. Sorry, but Roland Emmerich makes Michael Bay look like Christopher Nolan. At least Michael Bay tries to make it as realistic as possible by having actual explosions and stunts whenever possible.




Yeah, Day After Tomorrow is about the most ignorant "sciencey" movie conceivable. About the only way it could be less realistic would be if the massive snow hurricane that freezes oceans solid was being powered by unicorn farts or something.

Fast and the Furious is probably the only franchise like that I did not care for, but that is probably because I do not give two shits about cars.


The only reason I like them is precisely BECAUSE I am a car nut.

Yes. Yes it is.

People hate it because Michael Bay made it. I honestly don't hate or dislike Michael Bay as a director. He's just a 14 year old visionary allowed to make films. Roland Emmerich however is if you allowed a 6 year old to make a film.

I´m a bit of a movie snob and I can admit I generally like the fast and furious movies, particularly the first one.

Most Adam Sandler movies.

I like them for what they are; funny, stupid, entertaining. It's not like they are aiming for an oscar or anything.

Death to Smoochy. There's no part of that movie I don't love.

I thought these were alright. I wasn't amazed, but I definitely don't hate them like most people do

Orgasm for the eyes when I saw it in theaters. The story didn't blow me away and I haven't seen it since.

This was bad. Aliens don't belong in Indiana Jones movies....unless they're Nazi aliens

I haven't seen the rest on your list, but I know plenty of people who liked the Transformer series.

The Rock is one of my favorite action movies ever, up there with Die Hard and Predator.

I thought popular opinion was that Unbreakable was a good movie.

The board's constant bitching & complaining of M Night (justifiably so in certain instances) has overshadowed the quality of Unbreakable.

I rewatched the extended cut the other day and officially determined that the other guys is a straight up comedy classic.

This. I dont get why people are so concerned about the plot of movies about robot aliens from outer space.
