SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Instead of being polluted by the opinions of failed film students who spend their lives tearing apart the products of those who succeeded where they failed.

It also means that you are commenting on critic's reasons for disliking the movie without ever bothering to listen to their actual criticisms.

Until there's evidence to the contrary it's safe to assume the OP is some kind of ChatGPT marketing bot.

What is your hit to miss ratio of watching movies just to see if they are worth watching?

I've got so much other entertainment to do; my OD&D campaign, painting miniatures, making models and terrain, boardgames, video games, etc, that I don't think I could forgive myself for spending two hours watching a terrible movie.

Your life must be exhausting if your free time is that tight. Yet you somehow still find the time to post here, where most of the threads are hardly worth the time to read...
