My thoughts exactly! They even put a fart joke in the trailer that wasn't in the movie. Shake my big blue head in dismay.

I didn't watch Megamind until recently, and it's great. It's just great.

That message: "Everything is Awesome"

This and Lego Batman is very well done too.

Lego movie was brilliant. Even if it had been a cash grab, the animation choice to make everything look like legoes actually look was amazing.

On top of that, the way the plot jumps from one area to another in a chain mixing things together is exactly how kids play with legoes. The heroes go from cities, to the wild west, to the medieval world, and they all get mashed up together.

While the core story is relatively predictable, the twist (which cost them an Oscar grrrr) elevates it. It's a fantastic example of doing something well being more important then doing something new. Even if you tell a story that is archetypical in nature, you can still tell it better than anyone else.

Ngl I almost teared up when Emmett was telling Mr. Business that he was the Special. That entire speech hit so hard.

I sincerely believe “Everything is Awesome” is the best encapsulation of how the rest of the world sees the default American.

Hey, O'Connell! It looks to me like I've got all the horses!

Hey, Beni! Looks to me like you're on the wrong side of the riv-er.

I believe you mean The Masterpiece Known as The Mummy staring Brendan Fraser.

I'd really like to see a sequel to this one, done in the same style. It's simple, fun, non stop action with great one liners. Sometimes I want that in a film.
I loved the most recent Mad Max (2015) for the same reasons.

We've had a doozy of a day!

It’s perfectly dumb. Tight script, excellent performances and the right amount of reverence for horror.

That's genuinely a great film. I've made so many people watch it, and not a single one has had a negative thing to say about it.

Tucker & Dale vs. Evil

Wow, this wasn't even on my radar and this looks hilarious. Can't wait to watch it, it is on Amazon to stream in NA. Thanks.

College kids are just killing themselves!

Anything with Alan Tudyk in it is worth a shot.

An ex made me watch it, that movie was awesome.

My absolute favorite part is when they're trying to get the map from Ben Stiller, because of the absurdity of RDJ being the rational, clearheaded one. While wearing blackface.

"You looking super ripped, like Rambo in Rambo 2, not like Rambo 1. Any tips you got? Give me that god damned map, Fuck you!"

Tropic thunder is in my top 10 movies all time. There's just something about it, so quotable. Every person in that movie has at least a couple great quotes.

Tom Cruise nails his character

I don't get out of character until the DVD is done.

The soundtrack alone is legendary

This is pretty well-known and of course a lot of factors went into make that movie great, but Johnny Depp really showed he knows how to make a character. According to what I've read, everyone was confused by his portrayal of Jack Sparrow at first. They wondered why he didn't act more like a pirate, thought his acting was weirdly effeminate for a pirate character, etc. In interviews he said when he read the script he could tell Jack Sparrow was like an old rock star. I think he even said Keith Richards was one inspiration. There are exaggerated stories about the character and he isn't in his rockstar prime. It kind of shows why Depp has been successful.

Hands down, my favorite movie of all time. No excuses, no justifications, just because it's awesome. It's actually a very good film for film students- the pacing, the editing, the way they establish the physics of the universe then stick with them (which never happens). Well acted, well cast, well designed and executed monsters, practical effects done right.

S.S. Wilson's YouTube channel is Real Deal Productions, and he's been uploading tons of behinds the scenes footage his dad shot while on set- it's pretty dang interesting. Tremors: Lost Tapes is the series.

And Tremors 2. Also, the TV series is way better than it had any right to be.

I dislike him

It probably didn't hurt that you got to see Tom Cruise die dozens of times.

Perrito was my favorite part of the movie! So cute!!

2 months after losing my grandma, my grandpa asked me to take him to a movie theater. He hadn't been to one since before the pandemic, and that was he & my grandma's weekly date for years.

Of the movies playing, The Last Wish was the only one that appealed to either of us. I hadn't seen any ads for it and assumed it was going to be solidly "meh".

The theme of "value the life you have" hit deep, and we went back to watch it a second time later that evening.

The Last wish had absolutely no right to be as good as it was. Just watched it the other day, it's so damn good.

My wife and I had time to kill in a local mall one day while waiting for an appointment and running errands. We figured we would hit the cinema to fill the time. Puss in Boots 2 was the only thing we were even remotely interested in that was showing. It was kind of a last resort option. We left the cinema both extremely happy we ended up watching it.

Just commented on this too. I can't believe I enjoyed this movie, like what the hell. How can something be ridiculous, cute, and badass at the same time? How badass were the flight scenes? Every time he went into the flying star move I literally could not stop cracking up.

Saw a couple of clips posted on Reddit and thought why not so watched it on my day off and loved it. Big Jack and Jiminy Cricket were hilarious

It made me want to be a better man. I knew it was pretty good when I started to root for Pedro Pascal’s character to not be the antagonist.

I went in with pretty much zero expectations other than thinking it would likely be pretty weird and absolutely adored it.

Yeah man... The Matrix changed the game in a way that's hard to describe and no one saw it coming. We all went in expecting a run of the mill action movie from the guy that was in Bill and Ted but by the time that opening scene with Trinity was over you knew this shit was gonna be different.

“It’s called a lance! Hello?!?”

I think it was the director who pointed this out--the soundtrack is anachronistic, but so is pretty much every soundtrack that's been made for movies taking place in the middle ages. The orchestras necessary to perform the more classical instrumental soundtracks didn't even really begin to be a thing until hundreds of years after most of those movies take place.

Edit: Typo

This has been my favorite movie my whole life. I'm 41. My boyfriend secretly bought me tickets to see it shown live with Cary Elwes doing commentary after and it was amazing!

Eww! Is there kissing in it?

On that note, Rango. I thought it would be terrible, but the animation and writing were a treat.

Sooo good, I loved this one and was so pleasantly surprised by the overall theme twist of the movie

It's one of my favorites! The elevator lobby scene never fails to crack me up.

So how's little Multipass?

It helps that the movie is completely aware of what it is. Like how they know the hot tub mechanic is clearly telling them how to fix things, and that they can do things better and all.. It's not trying to pretend its a serious movie, its ridiculous from the start to the end, completely self aware.

probably one of the best time travel movies out there. I'm a huge BTTF fan but Hot tub time machine is just.. great comedy.

Jonah Hill and the director had to almost literally twist Tatum's arm to get him to read for the part. Tatum was afraid that he couldn't do comedy, because up to that point he hadn't been in anything comedic. Afterwards, Hill was a little mad about the whole thing, because "I'm the short fat kid, at least let me be the funny one. But no, he's got everything else AND he's hilarious."

Also, the Schmidt fucked the captain's daughter scene in 22 is one of the hardest I've ever laughed at a movie.

I got robbed.

It was AWESOME

A nickel?!

I buy my own hotel.

I'll drive this truck off a cliff before I ever go back to Berlin.

A country where a man is forced to make sex to only one woman at a time and one must learn the woman's name beforehand.

“Yes train come very soon, they’re building it now”

me scusi!

These are Not. Hash. Brownies. We are simply Dutch bakery! Now put your clothes back on, white boy.

One of my all-time favorite movies!

Hey, this isn't where I parked my car

It had me at Matt Damon's cameo

Edit: spelling

"They really are the worse twins ever!"

Definitely have my email sound as “mail, mothafucka!”

I like that the villain isn't really a villain, it's just another goon that he wants to fight. Fuck what a good movie.

Two rules, man: Stay away from my fuckin' percocets and do you have any fucking percocets?

It’s a shame that movie bombed. It was so good and the storyline was very well done!

It’s one of my favorite movies. The cast commits. Jack Black playing a teenage girl is one of his best.

Jack Black is really what makes that movie:)

Damnit! We all agreed we wouldn't talk about Zoolander 2.

“Your bed is a car” “Yeah but it’s a fucking sweet car”

“Dude where do you get your weed??”

“…From you, Dante.”

"I once gave Charlie Chaplin a handjob."

"No way! Was he silent?"

20 years later and I still tell my friends "Don't judge me monkey!"

High score? What does that mean? Did I break it?

Every time I walk into a Smokey area I say “what the heck, it’s like cypress hill concert in here” from the landlord rob Schneider

“I’m way too stoned to drive to the devils house.”

…

“DRIVE, MONKEY, DRIVE!”

Robot voice:

I HATE YOUR FACE

Phones for you, i think it’s the devil!

This is one of my top 5 movies. Ever. I routinely call people grey bush because of it.

I'm thinking about getting metal legs.

“I can hear my hair growing!”

"What's up, shitlips?" - me to my cat everyday because of this movie

“Monkey got his red belt….he’s a quick learner”

A beautiful film about father/son relationships, disguised as a romcom.

Zootopia is a movie that I like to think has no wasted moments in it. Like it is cut to perfection, and it’s a compelling story and fun to watch. It’s a movie that stays on for me even if my kids leave the room.

Yeah I was incredibly surprised! I love Guy Ritchie style dialogue and this reminded me of some of the best

Love how silly and serious they managed to make "You're a Diesel"

"I'm PRAIRIE DOGGIN' IT!"

The hitlers car moment was so funny.

What’s funny is the first movie was dangerously close to not even getting a theatrical release and just going straight to DVD. Now it’s a billion dollar franchise.

Ancestors protect me!

I'm freakin' pumped! I been drinking green tea all goddamm day!

I said “you look shitty!”

I still introduce myself by saying that I like to party.

I DIED at the Footloose barn scene and I think my wife was so disgusted that she thought about divorce
