What successful or popular movie that many loved you just HATE?

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.
You're viewing a single thread.
Comic book movies.
They have dominated the box office over the last 10-15 years, there are infinity reboots/origin stories, and all of them use the ”man, I really hope the bad guy doesn't use the super heroes loved ones as hostages" as a plot point. All of them are so predictable.
They've gotten so much worse over the years. It's kinda hard being a Marvel fan. I used to be a huge Marvel Fangirl, and was happy that the movies were giving more obscure characters the spotlight. I was thrilled I lived in a world where the general public knew who Rocket Raccoon was.
But ya know then End Game came out and I was all "It's been a wild ride, a shame it's over, but all good things must come to an end!"
Then they kept making movies and, they're just horrible. They've gotten formulaic, bland, and worse the comics aren't even enjoyable anymore because they've become glorified adverts for the movies.
As much as people gave Morbius shit, I actually loved it because it felt like a breath of fresh-air. The characters weren't just expies of Tony Stark (Seriously, they basically try to rewrite every character's personality into Stark), they didn't mug to the camera with stupid jokes about how, "This is a silly stupid movie and it sucks, but since I'm calling it out as being stupid and silly that means it's good", it took itself seriously, it felt like there were actual stakes, they were true to the character of Morbius instead of doing.,.. gestures to MODOK in Ant-Man 3 whatever this is....
Ugh yes I have a disdain for these movies.
"Have you seen captain costume, petty crime bat vigilante, and other rich guy vs alien probably and evil lady?"
"Yeah I saw the first one. Was lame."
I want a serious super hero movie where the villains fucking wreck them lol
The only good super hero movie is Mystery Men.
Unbreakable, The Incredibles, Chronicle, Logan, I may even defend Super.
We fucking need a Flaming Carrot movie.
I avoid superhero comics (with a few exceptions like Watchmen) so sure as hell I was going to avoid the films
Oh boy, you don't wanna see the actual comics then.
