27 Movies That Didn’t Stand The Test Of Time Despite Being So Popular At First

I always thought of it as a documentary.

Why come you don’t have a tattoo?

This video always come to mind when seeing fitting squares in holes! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz8ssH7LiB0 😄

While there's no doubt that Idiocracy is full of social commentary, it is, at the end of the day, just a movie and doesn't really need to go that "deep" in analysis. The "this is the way things are going to be if we keep going this way" message is clear but we're far away from it ever becoming reality.

I love that movie.

I HATE how Freddie was portrayed. I feel he was done a complete injustice, regardless of the storyline. I hate how they made him seem so stuck up and pretentious, and the way he reacted to the media and his family was so out of character. I have watched nearly all the Queen and Freddie Mercury documentaries, and he was not like that at all. In real life, he was sweet and shy. Plus, those teeth were absolutely ridiculous, like a parody on SNL. He was extremely self-conscious of his teeth and didn't flash them all over the place. Also, when they showed him writing new songs, it was just ugh. Like he really sat at a piano and just glorified in how amazing he is for what he just created. He did not do that. If they stayed true to Freddie's real life story, it would have been so much better. So much of his life was altered or left out and it would have been such a good movie if they focused on everything they glossed over or changed, it would have been a much better movie and represented him in a much better light. I hope they do a true to life biopic on freddie that isn't such a travesty. I love you dearly, Freddie. Wish I could have seen you once in person. Queen opened their tour recently near me, and I thought about it, but just can't bring myself to watch a Queen concert without Freddie in it.

Based on....doesn't indicate that the (work of fiction) movie is absolutely true and accurate. Even biographies can't be confused as accurate. It's probably best to go into them knowing that they are works of fiction and avoid assigning any legitimacy to the narrative.

I was unimpressed with the movie. Freddie was bisexual and hypersexual. He was wealthy and popular. He was failed by a health system unprepared to deal with AIDS. Listen to Brian May's album Back To The Light. It deals with the loss of Freddie, his depression, his divorce and his recovery.

yall should check out "history buffs" on youtube. hes got a blonde cartoon character as his profile pic and he goes through "historical" movies and tells you what really happened, what they changed and it's super cool. he did one of bohemian rhapsody

It isn't the public's opinion I would care about but the people who knew him and were portrayed in the film. If they are good with it then so am I. It they are not, I won't ever watch any of it again. I haven't seen the whole movie, because it makes me sad to think Freddie is gone.

Anyone watching movies and asking for scientific reality deserves to be disappointed. People need to relax and just be entertained

I love the movie, it's pure entertainment. I don't need scientific accuracy in movies, it's fiction, not a documentary. This is the kind of s**t my father in law loves to do- every time we go to a movie he nitpicks everything.

it's my guilty pleasure :D

Oh, I still love that movie. I don't care if it's not realistic in any way, shape or form. It's a fun popcorn flick, that's it. Look at all the Marvel movies that have grossed billions. Are those all scientifically accurate?

Deep Impact was a better movie and more scientific.

Always thought of it as an overly-long, boring take on the "white savior" trope.

dont know if anyone noticed but this is just Pocahontas with aliens

It was a great use of 3D and CGI but other than that, the film/story were just meh

It was massively overrated. It looked pretty, but that was it. Terrible story that was a complete copy of better movies that came before. It was so repetitive it wasn't even particularly fun to watch.

As a movie it's just Dances with Wolves/Pocahontas, in space. But I'm still more impressed by the world-building and effects.

The Red Wedding and The Battle of the Bastards will live in my memory as the best ever. Really alot of awesome moments. I don't hate GoT, I just hate how they caved to pressure and put costs over creativity at the final season and ruined it.

Truly a show of the highest highs and some really deep lows. The greatest series ever...until it wasn't, because of ego and stupidity.

It was truly amazing how DnD went for the cash grab and sank a fantastic series in less than a year. Truly impressive at how terrible they were at show running.

Never watched it !

What I hated the most about GoT was how Daenerys was hyped as this "relatable, strong female character" and that only the last season "ruined her". The writing of her character deteriorated much earlier imo. Her thought process basically reduced to "I want to sit on the throne" and never went beyond what she wanted to do once she got that far. Her murdering people that got in her way started way earlier than the last season, but I guess it was ok as long as it wasn't an entire city

he wrote the screenplay himself? 😶

Is the movie any good though?

This has one of my favorite Hanks performances and the scene towards the end where the shock finally hits him is astounding.

"... basically his fault" completely ignores the, you know, pirates. So he was asking for it because of what he wore, essentially? Lame take.

She did her best

Population of Dallas - just under 1.3 million. How long a movie do you want?

She did not do ANY of Dallas. She and her friends were trying to raise money to send her to Dallas. You need to rewatch.
