Before I say this, I want to preface by saying I genuinely “get” this type of movie. I love the two Anchormans and other Will Ferrell movies. Love Wedding Crashers, Superbad, 40 Year Old Virgin, etc. I like most of the Apatow movies. Wet Hot American Summer might be my favorite movie of all time.

With that being said, I don’t get Step Brothers. At all.

Step Brothers is not funny! Everyone needs to stop pretending that it is!

nearly everything from the Coen Bros (except No Country.. and Millers Crossing))

nearly everything from Tarantino (except Dusk til Dawn and especially the opening of Inglorious Bastards)

most from Christopher Nolen

anything at all with Will Ferrell

I don’t have enough down votes. Casablanca is a cinematic classic for good reason.

Let the Right One In was the most unique twist ever on the vampire
legend. Plus it had an effective human interest story.

Heath Ledger's performance was the only thing worthwhile in that one for me

My go to for this one is always Inception. I didn’t dislike it, but I didn’t find it mind blowing like a lot of folks did. And I’ve literally made myself rewatch it multiple times, just to see if maybe I was missing something and to keep an open mind.

I loved Arrival. Thinking person’s science fiction. I’d like to read the source material( “The Story of your Life”)

I think Arrival is well and beautifully made movie but I low key hate it.

Same. When they broke that jar of money at the beginning so they could pay for all their life expenses, I was like “as if!” You know that jar didn’t have very much money in it.

Nor do most of the characters in the movie, and that's the point, man.
