Watchmen (2008) by Zack Snyder, that's the only superhero movie I still asppreciate.

[hellboy]

All comic book movies are just about the spectacle for me, I don't pretend otherwise.

[tys0n]

Dredd (2012) has to be my favourite comic book movie by far.

A History of Violence

[tys0n]

As soon as anyone says that name I just want to rewatch one of my favourite films of all time that has nothing to do with comics.

Eastern Promises.

i went to high school with Malin Akerman. she was a couple years younger then me but i remember her. she was friendly. not that its some big deal or whatever but i thought it was cool when i heard she was in movies and stuff. before that she was a model and ended up in the Sears cataolgues in the late 90s as an underwear model. i should of kept some of those and got her to sign it haha jk.

Wow! Furious 7 is in the top 10?!?!

[tys0n]

I haven't seen the top 3

[hellboy]

I haven't seen the top 3

Wow, you're so cool! Thanks for telling us!

Thanks!

I haven't seen Jurassic World either.

If we extended the list to the top 20 I also haven't seen the following

- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
- Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
- Frozen
- Beauty & the Beast (2017)
- Minions

[M0G]

Not sure what that list says about us. Not trying to dive too deep down the rabbit hole here but those movies are not exactly high art. And yes I have seen all of them except for Endgame and none of them are great movies. Maybe you could give Jurassic Park a small nod and Avatar might get a nod mainly for it’s technical achievements.

[tys0n]

The list looks a bit better when it's adjusted for inflation.

[hellboy]

No one really expects blockbusters to be high art though. Nor was the coliseum in ancient Roman times.

The mob is fickle brother

This 'conversation' reminds me of when I spoke positively of the new Joker film, some users here basically shitted on my opinion but were coming from the blockbuster angle when I already knew it was more art house and not something they would care for anyway.

[hellboy]

Look, we all like shitting on opinions when they're not our own. Also, the Joker looks shit, and it ain't art house by any stretch.

Slow your roll there Mr. Coppola I never had any issue with the new Joker as being art house. I simply questioned whether Phoenix could match Ledger's performance as the Joker. This new Joker might end up being a better film and I won't argue that from the previews it certainly looks like a more cerebral work.
