Did you specifically like the movie?
 
I just wanted a majority type thing stating whether people actually liked the movie or not. Vote now and you get a small loan of a million pizza slices (no anchovies)

"Noone is neutral"

...Sorry, quoting the BVS trailer that dropped yesterday...:lol:

Yeah I liked it, had it's problems but it's a pinpoint adaptation of a typical Saturday Morning in the 1990s

neatoman 06-03-2016 02:10 PM

No, I did not like the movie. It's too long for it's idiotic plot, it's full of unfunny comedy and it's a really bad sign when I can safely say I thought it had eight annoying characters.

To me, it is.

You can't change that opinion, so don't even try.

I enjoyed it, it's better than the last movie but it did have some issues.

No memorable things happened.
Shredder and Karia basically doing nothing.
I liked the action but not enough fighting and not enough use of weapons.
Stephen as Casey, he was alright not perfect though.

Wrong. The airplane and waterfall battles stood out, and the bits where Raph and Leo argued over the mutagen, and Splinter listening to Lionel Richie:lol:

Yeah if it was, then it would be extremely annoying, full of plotholes and cluttered with useless subplots... Oh wait, it was...

All kidding aside, yeah. It's hardly pinpoint accuracy to the Fred Wolf cartoon, it's closer than anything else but it certainly isn't that similar.

.

And it was fun.

That's all it ever needed to be.

Plenty of people agree with me also.

Your misfortune is not ours my friend.

Yeah they stood out but not memorable, they weren't anything like Leo's beatdown/thrown though the window, Donnie beatdown/shell smashed. The Nick episode the Invasion ect. I would of liked something from the movie to make my jaw drop to the floor/jump out of seat.

Some people would highly disagree with that. It takes more than a movie to be seen as "fun" in order to actually be considered "good".

If by "fun" you mean "annoying and cluttered", then yes.

Doesn't stop Marvel fans does it? They praise painfully average s*ite all the time under the illusion it's remotely competent.

(and yes, the Captain America sequels are admittedly pretty good and are both intelligently paced AND fun, but they're exceptions to the rule)

No, I meant it was fun.

To YOU, it was "annoying and cluttered" but not to me and many others.

Like I said, you're not changing your mind, so spare your breath. In the end, you're the one who ruined your own good time.

Well plenty more people agreed that Thor: The Dark World was a good movie. So whatever.

Oh hey. Someone who liked the movie and is positive about it telling somebody else their opinion is wrong.

You can't make this hypocritical sh*t up. :lol:

Compared to these films, even Marvel's weaker movies are better in comparison.

So you'd rather take this Bayfest nonsense we're getting rather than a TMNT movie that's on the same level of quality as Cap's films at least?

Well to be fair to the Marvel movies, in addition to having decent plots, none of them has Sheamus and Uncle Ruckus shout fat jokes at each other (amongst other cringeworthy nonsense that can laughably be thought of as humor).

How could I ruin a good time I didn't have in the first place? I either cringed and dropped my jaw throughout most of this movie.

Don't get this thread locked like the review one, at least give some others the chance to vote

I know I shouldn't say anything here, especially considering how things went... last time. But what the hell. Because come on, this is a pretty ridiculous thing to say, isn't it?

I am legitimately happy that you liked it. I don't think anyone's trying to take that away from you, and nobody even could if they wanted to. But it's pretty silly to blame the viewer for not enjoying the movie. People have different tastes and expectations, and if they don't like something, they just don't like something. And their reasons for not liking it are perfectly valid. Admonishing them for that is just needlessly insulting and combative. Not everyone has to like what you like, right?
