Re: Last movie that disappointed you?
I won't say that I hated it but I was disappointed in the second Hobbit movie. I know it's expected that these movies are going to be over 2 an a half hours but this one felt like the most filler Hobbit/LOTR film to date. To me it just felt so repetitive.

Isn't this like a 300 page book? Why do they need to make three long movies out of it?

I've actually been on a run of pleasantly surprising movies (everything from Her to Snowpiercer to hell, A Hunted House)
...so I would have to say The Journey West which just seemed like weaker Chow.

It took the rubber suit fighting of Godzilla movies (a part I can't get enough of), but had fights that were close to how I imagined awesome Godzilla fights should go. I giggled with nerdy glee when Gipsy dragged the ship behind, then smacked the kaiju across the face with it. And then the face smash with the shipping containers, I pretty much yelled "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"

I dug Pacific Rim because of the universe. The acting was passable and the story lines were blah....but the look and feel were done right. For the type of movie, I can take that. It is fun re-watching material, too...

Hobbit Desolation of Smaug
edit: It looks like a lot of people disliked it! I am sure the Hobbit movies would have been much better if they kept it at two movies instead of streching it into 3.

Nurse 3D. I always scoff at people that say they turn films off after 10 minutes, but I did on this one. Good gracious that woman's voice was horrible to listen to. Her delivery is horrid.

I thought it was fine, aside from the godawful child actor who played Ferrell's son. I'm shocked he wasn't fired on the first day and replaced with some random crew member's kid.

Animal House though doesn't resonate with me because I grew up with Farley so by the time I saw Belushi he didn't resonate. Farley feels like a better version of the same type of thing. And The Dean and all the baddies were like wooden version of more lively bad guy authority figures in 80s comedies.
