Just like Star Wars. In fact Disney seems to ruin everything they touch now. I really loathe Disney and if it wasnt for The Golden Girls I would have washed my hands of them ages ago.



IMO, Disney needs to stop relying on remakes of its own stuff, reboots, and franchise films to continue to be taken seriously. Disney should consider giving original, more worthy films a chance in its name, IMO 1906 (by Brad Bird) has been in development limbo for years and Bird still hasn't given up on it.

Yes, you are right about The Golden Girls. The TV show will always be a classic, so Disney should keep its hands off a potential reboot of The Golden Girls for a new generation as a TV show.

Christopher Nolan's rendition of The Odyssey.

Wuthering Heights (the one that had Margot Robbie in it).

Any Left Behind, God's Not Dead, Kirk Cameron crap.

I will only watch movies that are rated NC-17.

I would point you in the direction of horror films if that is a genre you can tolerate, the last few years have come out with some banger films, like Sinners, Nosferatu 2024, Frankenstein, the Maxxxine trilogy, etc.

As for films I avoid: I avoid war and copaganda movies like the plague.


I actually really love horror movies! :skull:

But I mostly prefer watching the older stuff from the 60's (Night of the Living Dead, Carnival of Souls, Rosemary's Baby), 70's (Carrie, The Omen, The Shining, Suspiria, Zombie, The Beyond), 80's (Children of the Corn, Pumpkinhead, Day of the Dead, The Fog, The Return of the Living Dead, Phenomena), 90's (the remake of Night of the Living Dead, Sleepy Hollow, Ringu, The Blair Witch Project, Ju-On: The Grudge 1 and 2, The Craft, The Sect), and early 2000's (Dawn of the Dead remake, Land of the Dead, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.)

Also I'm a fan of the original German silent horror film version of Nosferatu and I really like House on Haunted Hill starring Vincent Price

But I really quit watching the new horror stuff lately because it doesnt have the same charm to me that the golden oldies had. The ones I listed i can remember renting from the video rental stores as a kid because my parents didnt really care what I watched. Good memories and good times watching zombies, ghosts, and devils. 8)

Gone With the Wind is difficult for me to watch because its such an undoubtably racist but well-loved movie. I've grown to despise how it romantasized slavery in the "Old South".

I also dont like action movies. Frankly I find them more disturbing than horror movies.

I also refuse to watch copaganda shows. My Mom loves them though.

I also refuse to watch any of the Game of Thrones spinoffs because not only did the original show end so badly, but I've grown to realize that it was overhyped and not really that good to begin with.

Also I refuse to watch any more of the show Wednesday. I was a big fan of The Addams Family early 90's movies and they really ruined my favorite character and family.
Why is that every where I go I see generation bashing? It's like no one wants me to exist because of a generalization. I am probably better off writing letters to friends and not go on forums ever again.

Pretty much Disney's version of Star Wars is just plain crap (Bad Batch and Maul are said to be good, but still).

Well, back to Legends. :p

The Life List (2025).

I tried to watch this film but there's just so much wrong with it. Firstly, the audio does not match up with the mouths. I assumed it was dubbed. Nope, it's an English movie. So I wondered if was my Internet or my TV acting up. Nope. I can only assume that they had to redub the lines because maybe the actor's microphones were too quiet or something. Did they forget to give them individual mics? What happened here?

Also, the speech is flat. Completely flat in tone and pitch, doesn't even go up when asking a question. A little strange but I figured I might be able to get past that.

There's no extras. No one. Which is weird! I'm fairly sure it's set in what I assume is New York or some other large bustling American city. Where is everyone? I didn't expect thousands but not even one extra? Not even some stock footage of extras? That's a little distracting.

Also, it's missing sound. I know that in films they typically add ambience in after the fact, but I guess they forgot to do that here. People interact with objects that should make sound but they don't. The supposedly busy streets have no car sounds, no birds tweeting, just silence.

My expections going into this film were low, I was expecting an average mediocre film at best but I didn't get very far at all because the audio and lack of extras was just so strange! 8O
