I know it's late but damn I've been looking for this comment of yours in order to respond to it, so....

Just call me Sig Freed in future.

Now, wasn't that worth waiting for? I certainly thought so! :D :thumb:

Watched the Wachowski brothers' sci-fi disaster of a movie, Jupiter Ascending. Oh boy is it awful! It's got to be the most needlesly confusing script of any block buster film of the last 20 years. Plus it's got too many bloated action scenes, terrible costumes and dumb plot points to count. This should be a career ending movie if Hollywood was a meritocracy.

I didn't understand why the guy on the hoverboard had to be half wolf or whatever. I know they were targeting the Twilight demographic, but half wolf? Really? Oh **** couldn't Mila Kunis control bees? Bees?!

The more I think back on it, the more weird **** comes to mind. That whole bureauocracy scene was unecessary and dumb.

And yeah, I don't know what was up with neither the wolf thing or the bee thing. There was something with bees being engineered to recognize royalty or some nonsense.

Are you surprised? Why did you even watch it?

Just like with music, I like giving dubious things a chance. I expected it to be bad, but at least it seemed like something different, so there's always the off chance that I'll disagree with the critics.

I liked Batman v Superman, for example, despite how everyone said it was ****. Exactly the same motivation got me to watch that one as got me to watch Jupiter Ascending.

I'm usually able to amuse myself by thinking about all the things that are terrible about a bad movie while I'm watching it.

Unfortunately I'm way too prone to painful cringe to enjoy bad stuff.

Holy **** yeah, wasn't it like a bizarre DMV montage or something? One of those things that's so odd that you don't notice how boring it is.

I seem to remember and friend and I were just bored and went to go see a movie and we knew it was a sci-fi movie so we just said **** it.

I find the boring bits to be what's really hard to get through. The big action climax at the end of Jupiter Ascending was unimaginably tedious.
