I agree with most of these.

Wonder Woman 1984 was SO bad. Like the best thing was the post credits scene.

Batman & Robin was really bad, and that is from someone who unironically loves Batman Forever.

Independence Day 2 just seemed to go off on a really weird tangent.

The Rise of Skywalker isn't great, but I didn't think it was bad enough to be #1. There are worse sequels.

The Last Jedi, for one.

[xdecadentx]

Was that the one with like the Las Vegas planet? Yeah I have blanked out a lot of that film.

There were some good moments, but I barely remember what happened.

[Spoiler (click to open)]Also cos I'm not into Star Wars beyond the films I didn't get why people didn't seem to comment on Leia clearly having some intense control of the force? Like it was just glossed over?

[quinnmorgendorf]

Yeah Leia using the Force to fly through outer space was ridiculous lmao. And yes, it was the one with the pointless Canto Bight (the casino planet) subplot. I'm convinced Rian Johnson just wanted to sideline Finn so he could focus on Kylo Ren.

That's why I don't really blame The Rise of Skywalker for being so terrible because JJ Abrams (who sucks in separate but equal ways) had to course correct so much of Rian Johnson's bullshit.

I genuinely thought it was going to be relevant to the rest of the plot, but nah, she just ends up in a coma.

I dated a guy who was a film editor and he worked on that scene. He told me everyone who worked on it thought it'd be such a mic drop moment and would have everyone in the audience shook. I actually laughed when he told me that.

[recognitions]

Nah it was great

Lmao came here to say this. She survived an explosion, and the freezing vacuum of space, to suddenly wake up and do a little force glide and jump scare her mates at the door (which had no airlock so no ideas how they were going to save her anyway)

the best thing that came out of it was the trailer, idk who did it but it was phenomenal job to make something so bad look this good

[buries]

THAT TRAILER WAS AMAZING! When I watch that and then the movie, I feel like I'm watching two different things.

[jjazz59]

WW 1984 was horrible! I tried several times to watch it and couldn't get even 1/3 of the way through.

[xdecadentx]

It got worse after that, if you can believe it.
