Curt hasn’t been this invested in a trainwreck since 38 Studios.

“If that pains you then I’d suggest you need to expand your horizons a bit.”

This is the same bullshit argument that keeps Michael Bay in business making those godawful Transformer movies.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The Dark Knight, V for Vendetta just off the top of my head were all reasonably smart, compelling movies that touched on the political and cultural zeitgeist without losing anything in their cool action sequences.

I hate this mentality.

I take movies roughly as seriously as they take themselves. Fast and Furious franchise? A brain-off fun time. This movie, on the other hand, takes itself super seriously and should be mocked appropriately.

I’m sorry, but as an artist and writer myself that mentality really pains me. I wish less people had that mentality

I find poorly made movies boring, not fun, and tedious, even with my brain turned off. There’s a difference between well-made trash and complete crap.

I never got that mentality... if you’re only interested in the exciting visuals, why see a movie at all? You could just wait until someone uploads all the fight scenes and watch them on Youtube. If I’m actually going to go watch a film I’d like for the story to at least not be so bad that it distracts me from enjoying…
