Yeah if it's a cash grab bc they made it to make money then the first one is too that makes no sense

Citizen Kane is among my favorite movies of all time. I think about it every few weeks. It truly affected me

lmaoooo

People mad about Paddington?

Most recent movies with 99-100% type critical reception is mid af b

That’s how it is. Leave no Trace got like 5-6 less reviews than Paddington 2 with a 100% and it’s barely better than your usual Sundance movie

Well Leave No Trace was a Sundance movie....lol....

Deserved

You gotta see it a few times, I thought it was boring the first watch but it’s so f***ing well made and innovative. I enjoy it more every time I watch it now

Shoplifters and Ash is Purest White isn’t mid

Neither is Parasite but technically that got dropped down to 98% recently

Foreign movies I feel its a different standard

though I wasn't a fan of Parasite

Lol u just got every excuse ready huh?

“Paddington 2 generic mid even though I haven’t seen it”

“Recent 99-100% movies are mid”

“Oh foreign films are different standard”

Lol you struggling fam

A CGI bear got people in their feelings

Almost as embarrassing as the Mr Potato Head thing

Crazy how Welles’ filmography s***s on a CGI bear

Bear cooked his dusty ass

literally named 2 american movies that fit the bill of being mid. I can keep going I mean. Lady Bird, Eighth Grade, Selma are all pretty unspectacular as well.

Foreign films are absolutely a different standard because most of the time they aren't getting reviewed at the level these hollywood movies are and not too mention many times its very different critics covering them.

Boredom is rarely a good argument. Actually, it’s not an argument at all. I wasn’t bored by it, lots of people aren’t so what does that mean? Is it intrinsically boring? No, because lots of people aren’t bored watching it and they even enjoy it. You are. Other people are too. So clearly, the problem is your attention span and the fact that you’re not used to films with a slow pacing. We’re not talking about a Tsai Ming Liang film. It’s not a form of “slow cinema” but it has a slow pace which wasn’t unusual back in the days.

Also that comparison with J Cole is cringe-worthy. “Citizen Kane” isn’t simply a great film from a technical standpoint, it’s also a truly profound look on capitalism, liberal individuality and journalism.

What you named? Only caught you say Leave No trace, which I thought was really well done

And it was a sundance movie so it kinda confuses whatever insult u said about it lol

Haven’t seen those others so can’t weigh in (unlike how you operate ) but I will say I did attempt to watch Lady Bird and was bored outta my mind

Hard

Think these are all the recent films that qualify. Only included English language films and no documentaries

100%
Leave no trace
Mickey and the bear
Paddington 2

99%
Eighth grade
Lady bird
Selma
Miss Juneteenth
Never rarely sometimes always
Saint Frances
Shaun the sheep
Song of the sea
Starred Up (UK flick)
The tale

I also named Never, Rarely Sometimes Always

These lazy ass Sundance movies just get this praise because they serve as an echo chamber for these liberal ass critics

And I have seen all these movies. Can’t really say I expect much outta Paddington 2 especially when kids movies have long had a habit of getting overrated to death by critics

Lol damn Rosebud. Maybe you need to experience Sundance in person and get you some actress p****. Help mellow you out
