Smart House - 5.5/10 Didn't grow up with this one so it doesn't hit the same, still fun and bad in mostly the right ways
Holy shit, Gremlins 2: The New Batch is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Instant favorite. Dante's whole life's goal was to make a live action Looney Tunes, and this is as close as you can possibly get. Even more than his ACTUAL Looney Tunes movie.
Major League - 7/10 48 Hrs. - 7/10 Both kinda racist with some redeeming qualities! Major League is very nostalgic for me, and I can't believe 48 Hrs is Murphy's first film role. He's electric.
Theater Camp was really fun! I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected. I had no idea it was gonna be a mockumentary, the on-screen narration was used so effectively
Armageddon - 7.5/10 so so dumb but I'm a sap and the ending gets me and how cranked this thing is a joy.
The Super Mario Bros Movie - 6.5/10 A fun, easy watch. The Dorm That Dripped Blood - 6.5/10 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 - 5/10 As an MCU hater but a James Gunn and Guardians respecter, it brings me no pleasure to report that the last 45 minutes or so kinda killed this one for me. Wicked World - 8/10 Slow, but truly batshit with some narrative and editing choices so incompetent, they border on brilliant
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I was really looking forward to it. Didn't hate it, but I have a lot of issues with it.
I was also kind of disappointed with GOTG3. But I also wasn’t over the moon with 2 on first watch and then it became my favorite after a rewatch, so we’ll see. Maybe I’ll change my mind.
I loved 2, might actually be one of my favorite Marvel flicks! But I was also less cynical about the studio at that point
