rant much? at no point did i say your opinion wasn't valid but you seem to think people have no right to disagree with it. fake exaggerated example 1 " i enjoyed the transformers movies" example 2 "i enjoyed the transformer movies, best films of all time 10/10" one of those you can argue against, one you cant.
As for me not watching it, well why would I? even when you try to defend it you admit it doesn't have the depth of the original and is dumbed down. so why would i watch it? because it has shiny CGI? Pass. I frankly hate hollywood remakes so if it's not bringing anything new to the table why as a fan of the original would i watch? yeah maybe it's meant for a new audience but that doesn't mean it had to be dumbed down. and dont get me started on your rating system. 8.5 is cult classic territory for me. "not an 8.5 but gave it an 8.5 for enjoyment"?? i got freaky with the misses when watching 50 shades, had a great time, movie was still 3/10. it's either an 8.5 or not, cant be 2 things
First, scoring is dumb anyway.
Your score of 8.5 = cult classic is not what I call a cult classic. I have never thought about what cult classic score is. It could be a 1/10 and still be cult classic.
As for getting 8.5/10 for enjoyment? I totally enjoyed watching Coyote Ugly, but it's a terrible movie. I would give that 7/10. It's like a 2/10 movie but I would give it 7/10 because that was my time. and I have a 7/10 enjoyment in movie time when I watched it.
But like I said, scores are stupid. Like when you watch a movie and it is so bad you give it 0/10. Then years later you watch another really bad movie and you say "the is even worse than that one"....what do you do then? give it -3 out of 10? I give it a number purely out of the "thing" the forum do, people take it way too seriously and way literally it seems.
I have no problem with people disagree with my opinion, but I have a problem saying "are you serious?" as if their opinion is somehow superior to mine. I welcome debates in the intricacies of how they arrived at their score, but a blanket statement implying i am wrong to like the movie seems like some kind of high horse don't you think?
Watch the movie, come back and explain what section you have a problem with, why it is a problem and what they did well and what was average.
Don't "
I am not watching this because I don't agree with your rating."
You haven't even seen the movie, what grounds do you have to even JUDGE the movie? Really? I don't get it, is this what we do now?
