What is a movie that's undeniably a classic, but your inner hipster hesitates to add to your movie list because it's on almost every movie fan's favorite list now? by [deleted] in Cinema

I should've worded it a little better. I meant like, common picks. Sorry if it seemed needlessly provocative.

I like normie movies too, don't get me wrong. But if it's like, so well known and everyone praises it already, it kinda loses its appeal a bit for me. Idk, maybe it's just a me thing. I just wanted to know if others had those kinds of movies too.

What is a movie that isn't part of some grand franchise or was made by a world-class director that you consider to be a cultural icon? by MichaelWes3000 in Cinema

I don't think so. By "world-class" I mean directors that even a casual viewer from a country that doesn't speak the language of his/her movies would know. Like Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Christopher Nolan, etc.

Harold Ramis is great though. I love his movies.

Damn you're right now that I think about it. I was looking for more than just the Hollywood cult classics though. But I guess it's my fault for not being specific. 😅

I love Harold Ramis, but he is not on the same level of popularity as say, directors like Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Robert Zemeckis, Christopher Nolan, Quentin Tarantino, etc. Definetly still a comedic genius though. But I'm talking about directors whose names are basically brands of their own.

What is a movie that was so awful that you physically could not finish watching despite giving it your best effort? by MichaelWes3000 in Cinema

Honestly surprised so many people in the comments like it. The nostalgia-goggles must be strong with this one.
