With Godzilla King of the Monsters opening this weekend, I think this is a good time to remind everyone who may have forgotten that it's OK to disagree with critics and there's no need to attack them.
I know lots of people on the internet are young and don't really get this, but just because Rotten Tomatoes gives a seal of disapproval to a movie you liked, doesn't mean they're WRONG or PAID OFF, nor does it mean that critics think YOU are wrong for liking it.You can call them biased all you want but everyone has biases including you and I. I loved Godzilla and as a kaiju fan I am biased, and that may or may not have had an effect on how much I enjoyed it. Point is, you can't force anyone else to like a movie as much as you do, so don't even try.If you loved Godzilla King of the Monsters, don't make it your life's purpose to convince people they're wrong for disliking it. Instead, praise Godzilla for the reasons YOU loved it. If Godzilla: King of the Monsters is really that good, than the only thing that could possibly convince people of that is POSITIVITY.And let me just say this: I know you may think it's unfair for such an awesome movie to get bad reviews because that will definitely entice less people to go and see it. However, nobody sees a bunch of screaming fanboys calling critics childish names, and thinks "You know what, the critics must be wrong. Godzilla 2 must be great!" They just see a bunch of screaming idiots and that only re-enforces the reviews suggesting that the movie is that bad. If you put your energy into love for the movie, it will entice more people to see it.TL;DR: Attacking critics will get you nowhere. If you want to express your admiration for a movie, there's no need for hostility against people who don't. Toxic fanbases destroy franchises. via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2HMddtw
If Disney is doing Live Action remakes, they should do Black Cauldron.
Black Cauldron was not as well received as other films because it was so different. But The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander is an excellent book series which the film was based on. If they are doing remakes, they should do this as a live action and make it a series like other fantasies, since there are 5 books in all. I would love to see this made live action. via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2KdPwM7

I finally watched Burn After Reading (2008) and I'm so glad I did
I've seen a majority of the Coen Brothers' work and this one slipped under my radar. I was always vaguely aware that it featured Brad Pitt being a dork and that it was supposed to be funny, but I didn't fully understand until I saw it.This is a movie about the dumbest people alive. A group of absolute bumbling fools, who, through sheer ineptitude, manage to plumb the depths of American exceptionalism and bureaucracy. This was intensely funny and I highly recommend everyone see it. The best part was the reveal of what Clooney was really working on the whole time. This whole thing reeked of classic Coen Bros. humor and I really loved it. via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2W13ao2
Whatever you think of Avatar, we should appreciate the fact that, for the last decade, an original film has been the highest grossing movie of all time.
Franchise movies dominate Hollywood more than ever. Seemingly there's a sequel, prequel, remake, reboot coming out every week. MCU and SW broke almost all box office records during the last few years, but none could dethrone Avatar thus far.Whether Endgame overtakes it eventually or not, we can't overlook the monumental success that was Avatar. You might not be a fan, but it's mind-blowing that an original movie has been the highest grossing film of all time since 2009. via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2Wyc94z
