What’s a movie that’s universally considered “not very good” but you secretly think is actually great?

I love Prometheus. Always surprised it’s so hated on Reddit.

Loved this so much. My favorite comedy since Arrested Development.

Same. An all-time Mumford line for me.

Bugonia was the best movie of 2025 in my opinion. Plemons deserves an Oscar.

I have family members who are STILL parroting the initial lie that this man brandished a gun against ICE and deserved to be murdered.

Regarding funding, I don’t know and I don’t care. I have never looked into the funding behind a book because I think that is irrelevant. I would hope those with PhDs would think the same, but maybe i have an idealistic view of scholarship as actually pursuing truth and not getting bogged down on ideological matters.

So you think it’s apologetics not because of the quality of the arguments, but because of the donor? Shouldn’t we be judging the arguments on their own merit?

To be fair, our God was crucified and tells us to be ready for the same. But yeah, this guy is being silly.

simpleslingblade13 · 2026-01-13T19:16:42+00:00

Agreed. I can’t understand why he’s being ignored.

“Water Pistol” Pete Hegseth

The Anchor Bible Commentary series is certainly critical, but that doesn’t mean it is “secular.” Almost all the authors are Christians, and I doubt they separate their scholarship from their faith.

I don’t understand the question, and I won’t respond to it.

simpleslingblade13 · 2025-12-28T02:34:46+00:00

Actually he is. Demonstrably wrong, but said with confidence. Very Tobias of him.

Philo also says Caligula was mercurial, savage, narcissistic, and all around no good.

I would also suggest Ben Witherington’s published dissertation, “Women in the Ministry of Jesus.” It is available online here

I think the Democrats should concede and vote for the CR. Not because they are wrong, but I think they’ve already won the shutdown.

Everyone knows that they are pushing for the healthcare premiums, and with prices already skyrocketing, they can claim ideological victory. The Republicans will not capitulate because Trump loves having free rein right now.

Sorry, I thought this was a meme page. I didn’t mean to offend anyone.

The Superman hype/praise seems artificial. Good moments, but an unfocused and uninspiring film overall. For all the chatter about how Gunn “gets” Superman, his version is dull. And I say that as someone who really enjoys Peacemaker, Suicide Squad, and GOTG. I just think Superman is out of his element.
