@matrix So what I'm getting from that is it's the exact opposite of The Last Jedi and I should go see it.
@ArdanianRight @matrix Godzilla and John Wick 3 satisfy my movie theater ration for this summer.
@matrix Movie critics really are remarkably bad - one thing is preferring artsy fartsy movies over movies that normal people actually like, but they also care like nothing about even fundamental stuff like story, characters and plot holes (look at the praise for The Last Jedi, or further back, the 3rd Harry Potter movie, which was an AWFUL adaptation).
@ChristiJunior @matrix Movie critics that get paid now work for divisions of conglomerates that own movie studios, while 'unpaid' critics are so poor the free screenings constitute bribes.

That's why every crap Marvel movie now ranks up there with Lawrence of Arabia and Citizen Kane.
@ArdanianRight @ChristiJunior @matrix Black Panther isn't even the best Marvel movie. Iron Man 1, Captain America Civil War, The Avengers and Thor Ragnarok are all better.

Raiders of the Lost Ark is better than any Marvel movie.
@ChristiJunior @matrix Hilarious.

Kane is the only title on that list that belongs there.
@ChristiJunior @matrix I can't get over that fucking list.

And I thought it was bad when The Matrix was considered the greatest movie ever.

I mean where's Jaws? That's a better horror movie than Get Out. Get Out was one of the better horror movies THE YEAR IT CAME OUT.

@matrix The new Aladdin has similar scores. I was thinking about seeing it, but don't really want to pay for it. The last Godzilla movie was alright ... I'm sure it will be more of the same. I have a feeling these scores are from people who are actually fans of that genre and go out of their way to see it. Although Venom has terrible critic/good user reviews and I actually enjoyed that one for what it was.
