What were you getting at then?

Must be on the same level as "The Godfather" or "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", then!
Good to see Hollywood is still cranking out those intelligent, thought provoking movies

Don't forget Megamind

That he ranked Thor an 8, which means it's a great action flick. But you're comparing it to Cookoo's Nest and Godfather, which also might receive that rank. I just don't think that's fair because there're two different genres. I never implied that we need to specify the genre with the rank. Jesus...

Yes my son?

jesus wasn't a knob

i think I understand what xeros is driving at. if a movie like batman the dark night gets a 9, and then the same moron gives "shawn of the dead" a 9 for being a great comedy while high, then somehow that seems like a slap in the face for the people involved in batman for being a much bigger effort, both is story line / depth / meaning / special effects / field research etc.

You have to be real to be a knob.

Stop whoring up the movie thread with your nonsense

Everyone knows a movie should be rated within one's own personal frame of reference, leaving it up to other forum members to develop an opinion based upon movies that both parties have seen and their understanding of the interpersona.

Doesn't change you being a knob.

Also perception is reality.

Get Smart, Again 2/10

Awful but not in a watch-it-once kind of way.

Don't Watch, Again

but we are not talking about diff. opinions here. it's about the rating system that completely overlooks things such as I have described.

anyway I think Spazda hasn't made a worth while post in ages with the exception of the ninja vid. For all intents and purposes he is as worthless as Peenyuh. not to mention his footer should be banned for screen-space slaughter

Get mad bro.

no brofist for you

A simple comedy can still be a 9 but shouldn't be compared as a 9 in drama, adventure, mystery, etc. It's like saying that indie games can't be rated 9 because there wasn't as much effort put into them as some of the huge games that are out now.

Actually I don't know why anyone would compare them when it's obvious they shouldn't.

Tron: Legacy

Watched it twice on the plane, then downloaded it when i got home and watched it twice more. It's that awesome.

^^^I think I'm gonna go watch it again in 1080p, right after I listen to the score for the 2000th time.

Thor.

Thor + Two out of 10. Shitty effects, but Chris Hemsworth is great.

Never mind me bro, just trolling a bit I agree rating is inherent to the genre.
That being said, you can get some severely lobsided ratings.
See the imdb top 250; Shawshank Redemption @ #1? OK flick, but I've seen dozens of movies that are way better.
Subjectivity, people are sentimental idiots, etc.


Anyway: Nude Nuns With Big Guns => 3/10

Granted, all the title's promises were fulfilled.
But the nuns were ugly, the "guns" were saggy, and the gore, like the scipt, was...not even there?

High brow 3/10 bullshit equivalent: Dancer in the Dark (with Bjork)

Get over yourself faggot.

surprising. from the trailers i was 100% convinced that thor would be just as shitty as the ang lee hulk (really the same movie with a few names changed). might actually give it a chance now.

Not sure what kind of other fetishes you are into but, dude!

Like you'd kick a sweet nude nun with big guns out of bed, daddy-o.

Nah, this movie niche just needs a little refining, and it'll take right off.

Cop Samurai 8/10

The Hit List = 1/10 - Horrible with a capital H.

Your Highness - 4/10 - had a few funny moments but generally a pitiful effort. like pineapple express, but not good... despite natalie portman's butt.
