I’m not saying the worst, otherwise I would need to include the star wars sequels or transformers movies… Just some really dumb movie that somehow got praised.
For me has to be Ready Player One. That movie message is so “uhuh” obvious that is stupid, the whole nerd that saves the world in a thing that otherwise would be useless to know in real life… The so over the top evil gaming corporation. The whole 80s and 90s movies and games references get old after half an hour… And it’s so pandering towards the geeks and nerds, they really want the viewer feeling really cool for knowing that is the Shining hallway, or that is a Monty python reference… Or look a GUNDAM! YOU’RE SO COOL FOR COLLECTING THOSE GUN PLA! Look we have also overwatch and halo in the background! You’re so cool modern gamer!
Also the obviously attractive “nerd” hacker girl that thinks she’s ugly and deformed for having a small hard to see red tint in one side of her pretty face… Cmon man. In no universe anyone would think that actress is ugly.
And the message at the end is so hilarious: Look man, you’re cool for getting these references and being a real gamer is cool, but go outside more!
Is like the creators have no self awareness.
To me Dune is too big for movies. It should have been a series. We’ve had two long films and they’ve cut the book down so far they still barely make sense. The end of Dune two should have been the end of a first season of 8-10 hour long episodes.
“Now with even more desert panoramics, elegantly scored with Hans Zimmern uninterruptedly farting in an empty can of beans”
I’d prefer an empty can of beets.
I feel like the two movies should have been a trilogy.
Cut the first one as Paul and Jessica are flying away.
Cut the second one at the decision of Paul to go south, choosing to fulfill his destiny.
The last one remains the same.
