Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

    Speed Racer (2008)! The Wachowski sisters directed it after the Matrix trilogy, and the silly and over-the-top aesthetics seem to have put of many, but I think it’s a genuinely fun movie with great themes and some awesome emotional moments.

      I love the style. They took every classic anime trope and made it a live action visual! It’s really cool if you get what they’re doing.

      It’s amazing! It’s funny, has a great cast, is visually stunning AND unique. it’s just that some people think movies have to be only about plot.

      I happen to own an orange telephone like the one in the movie, an old “Telefon der deutschen Post”.
