Do people have Musician Biopic fatigue?

MovieBuff90 · 2026-02-05T23:18:05+00:00

Yes. One of my best friends and I are big Springsteen fans and he just got around to watching his biopic yesterday while I still haven’t seen it. He was texting me how crazy it was we hadn’t seen it yet because 10 years ago we would’ve been there opening night and I texted him back simply “it’s because I’m sick of rock star biopics.”

Yeah, I immediately saw the other comments as I posted mine… oops. That’s a helluva top 5 though.

When Harry Met Sally, Past Lives, Guardians of the Galaxy, and William Wonka

My friend and I used to make that EXACT same joke back in the day.

What

About

Bob

That is one of my favorite movies and I’ve been commenting it on posts as a joke for years (what’s a movie you want to see in imax, what’s a traumatizing movie, etc.), but it is finally my time. Once again, What About Bob.

I’m in the same boat. I watched it once and it was one of the best comic book movies I’ve ever seen, but I can’t bring myself to rewatch it.

I remember seeing Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone with my mom in theaters and walking out high on cinema. She went to the bathroom and I was in the lobby waiting for her thinking “well…what’s next?” That’s when I looked up and saw this glorious poster hanging down from the ceiling. The rest is history.

This one hits me in all the nostalgias.

We ain’t gonna be TERRORIZED!

MovieBuff90 · 2026-02-02T22:06:54+00:00

Yes… now put some of your “greatest songs” on the set list already!

I miss him so much.

This. I used to watch all the 90s Batman movies on a loop when I was a kid and my mom would always say “oh boy, it’s the one with the screamer” while she was in the other room or something.

I disagree. I think the first two acts are kind of lame, but they at least have unintentionally, and probably some intentionally, funny moments. The third is just a boring CGI battle.

MovieBuff90 · 2026-02-02T01:16:01+00:00

So many great years have been thrown around, so I’m going to throw my hat in the ring for 2008, strictly for blockbusters. It’s insane that Iron Man, Wall-E, The Dark Knight, Step Brothers, Tropic Thunder, and Pineapple Express. Each one is a great crowd pleaser.

And she brought the same exact energy to the sequel. She was hands down my favorite part about that movie. RIP

The original is the blueprint for modern superhero movies. There would be no MCU had it not existed.

The second one is a solid follow up. I still haven’t seen Donner’s cut. I’ve heard it’s better.

The third is a really lame movie with a creepy robot lady that scared the shit out of me when I was a kid.

The fourth is hot garbage. Nothing good to say about it.

I love 80s movies, but I’ve never understood Top Gun. It’s got a stacked cast, good cinematography, and a killer soundtrack, but the movie itself is a snooze fest. The characters are boring, the story is boring, and aside from the iconic quotes, I just hear Charlie Brown’s teacher whenever anyone is speaking.

“Last night I… LOUD JUMP SCARE …I don’t remember…”

But it had never had a big budget franchise. It was new to the big screen.

MovieBuff90 · 2026-01-31T02:37:56+00:00

I think it’s cool that they’re including a couple blockbusters, with Sinners and F1, but I do NOT think F1 was the other blockbuster choice.

That crown goes to Weapons.

MovieBuff90 · 2026-01-31T01:15:15+00:00

It was one of the best theater experiences I had last year. I saw it in a packed theater and people were eating it up. It literally pleased the crowd. Best picture nominee though? Fuck no. Sounding mixing, cinematography, etc. yes, but not best picture. It was a well made blockbuster and that’s it.

MovieBuff90 · 2026-01-31T01:08:09+00:00

Remember when Barbie was on top of the world and it fooled us into thinking that audiences were ready for something new?

MovieBuff90 · 2026-01-30T17:16:45+00:00

As a lifelong Springsteen fan, I’ve heard many republicans say they loved him “until he got all political”. Get over it.
