Oooh, is this the hot take zone? I thought it had some real problematic centrist bullshit and ultimately had nothing interesting to say, but was well made and entertaining enough, and will be largely forgotten in a year.

Harlock posted:Given the overwhelmingly positive critic response I feel like that's unlikely. Do you know how many things get massive critical acclaim and loving jump off a cliff? Like every other Best Picture Winner for the Oscars is irrelevant before the ceremony ends. Critical acclaim doesn't mean poo poo in and of itself, it's why it's getting acclaim. And I don't think Watchman's "message" was coherent enough to be interesting, I don't think any of the [Quite good] performances are compelling enough to want to watch again, and I don't think the plot itself is particularly setup to continue forward, which would create a broader narrative that might warrant reexamining this season. Being good isn't enough to make something stand the test of time. Hell, there are plenty of 'bad' works that have something compelling to them that get people to revisit them. The life of a work is more than it's technical achievements. I think Watchman was good and forgettable.

You traded a disinterested blue man for a blue woman, at least Jon had the decency to gently caress off to space. I don't think the the violent cop will have the same inclination.

4 was the one in Himalayan mountains, are you sure you don't mean 5? Also comparing a piece of media to Far Cry 5 is the most damning indictment of it's execution I can imagine.

Because nothing builds hype like saying "We have no interest in this project"?

Sleeveless posted:Life must be so much easier when you're the kind of person who can dismiss ratings, reviews, and awards as all being totally fake because they don't line up with your personal tastes. I mean they are totally fake because they manifestly do poo poo like give awards to people that deserved to win them in previous years for better projects but didn't. Doesn't mean you can't be happy when the thing you like gets one. And I'd say this one won about 4 more Emmys than it should have, at least. loving Devs blew it out of the water on some of those sound Emmys, it in no way had exceptional costumes, poo poo like that.
