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.

    I just watched Cowboys & Aliens (2011) for the first time earlier today and really enjoyed it.

    Lots of famous faces in front of the camera and lots of well known names involved behind the scenes.

    Producers include Steven Spielberg, Jon Favreau, & Ron Howard.

    Actors include Harrison Ford, Daniel Craig, & Olivia Wilde.

    Seems like a really stupid idea for a plot but I found myself about halfway through thinking “this isn’t really that different from a Star Wars type movie… That’s basically already alien cowboys …”

    Oh yeah… Forgot to mention that Steve Oedekirk (from Kung Pow fame) was also involved … he was one of three writers

        My thoughts exactly… And well made… Especially considering the subject matter

        I’m just blown away it slipped under my radar for so long… That title didn’t do it any favors I think.
