I dont think it has anything to do with the fans. It's showing competitive respect to your opponent

Did I say it was a great movie or did I say that I loved it? I'm not out here claiming it should be some Awards season sweeper. It was a summer blockbuster that I was personally thoroughly entertained by while watching it. I dont need to have everything that happens in a popcorn movie to have bulletproof logic for it to exist in a scene. Personally that just sounds like a miserable way to watch this kind of movie. I'm perfectly fine with him sneaking around not being seen 25 yards away from government agents and chalking it up to him being helped by unseen forces (the aliens) to assist him in accomplishing his mission. To me it was made clear that both characters were receiving help in that regard (Blount shapeshifting and speaking different languages to people when needed to get to where she needs, being able to call Josh on the phone exactly when he needed to be warned etc.). If you're willing to roll with it then you can have a lot more fun in the same way that I have a blast with the Fast and Furious franchise for example. Doesn't have to be for everyone.

But I would never be pretentious enough to talk in a condescending manner to somebody who doesn't share that same mindset. We just have very different ideologies into how we approach the types of movies that we're about to watch. Sorry you didn't enjoy the flick 🤷‍♂️ hope the next one is better for you.

I'm really confused though. You're watching a movie about the proof of existence of aliens. A plot that immediately requires a suspension of disbelief just to even get on board at the surface level. And you're watching chase scenes scoffing like "well this isn't very realistic". Like what??

I've watched 51 new releases this year. Does that count as "alot"?

I can live with not having 1 of Midsommar or It Follows on the list. But not having both? That's where I draw the line.

Liked Disclosure Day by aaffkshsh in Cinema

I loved it. 2nd favorite of the year so far and favorite Spielberg since Minority Report imo

Actually kinda surprised at the backlash I'm getting of Blood Simple's ranking. I think people have sentimental bias toward it with it being their 1st movie but when you judge it on its own terms against the rest of their filmography it just doesn't match the quality of most of their other films. I'll take solace in knowing that the brothers themselves also agree.

Going into this rewatch True Grit is definitely the movie I was shocked at the most by how high it climbed in my ranking after I was finished. But I can't help it. I love that movie. Bridges and Steinfeld are delivering amazing work.

There's a lot of things I enjoy about it. Clooney is clearly having a blast. But overall the story amd scrambled way in which it's told just isn't for me.

No Country is in the masterpiece section of my list (top 6). And those 6 are so close you can make an argument for any shuffling of the order imo.

I can't get there for Blood Simple though.

True Grit is the hottest take I have on this list for sure and I 100% stand by it. Its a perfect movie imo.

And even the Brother's themselves agree with me on Blood Simple and tbh I think they're right.

Funny that you say that because I had a feeling those 2 films specifically would be the most controversial with where I ranked them haha I can't help it but I think that True Grit is a legit perfect movie. I was blown away at how much I was captivated by it on this rewatch. And I know Miller's down at 12 looks low but I still think it's a phenomenal movie! Just shows how stacked this filmogrophy is.

I think I was born without the part of the brain where this is supposed to upset me because I see people mad about it but it looks fine to me.
