Rules: explain why
Ready player one.
That has to be one of the cringiest movies I’ve seen, is tries so hard, too hard with it’s “WE LOVE YOU NERD, YOU’RE SO COOL FOR PLAYING GAMES AND GETTING THIS 80S REFERENCE” message and the whole “corporation bad, the people good” narrative seems written for toddlers… The fan service feels cheap and adds nothing to the story.
Finally, they trying to make the people believe that very attractive girl with a barely visible red tint spot on her face is “ugly”… Like wtf?
Yet it received decent reviews plus being one of the most successful movies of that year.
Yaaaas, omg. Luckily I didn’t see it in theaters but even renting it at home, I remember by hour 2 I was just laying on the floor begging for it to be over while my now-ex insisted we watch it through to the end.
I also never understood why people thought Rorschach was “such a badass” and supposedly some kind of role model when he clearly needed therapy and was just stewing in his own self-pity and self-hatred and made that his whole personality.
