Yep. Those two movies would not happen, at least not that way, unless the characters chose the stupid alternative pretty much every time they did something. The only way you might make sense out of the plots is if we in some future film of that franchise get told that the early cryosleep, or whatever they use to make the travel times between star systems tolerable, would often cause damage to the brains of the people using it. And that was found out only a lot later, but had gotten mostly fixed by the time we get to the era of the first movie because at least Ripley does make some sensible choices.

Sorry but I can't help but disagree with a few of these... American Sniper wasn't supposed to explain the complicated politics of "The War on Terror". It was a film about the military & family life of Chris Kyle, so all understandings & views are from his point of view, how he saw & understood things. Not understanding or enjoying Tenet doesn't insult intelligence, it just means it was not a film meant for you. Those who do understand and/or enjoy the film are the intended audience.

I found Volcano to be an enjoyable film BECAUSE the premise was so stupid and what people did was even more ridiculous. It was a slice of 90s LA attitudes, from the abysmal subway system, the dilemma caused by LA traffic systems, betting on earthquakes, destruction of skyscrapers, the sinking of animals in the La Brea Tar Pits....it had it all. The "making of" documentary for it was interesting as well, but the story, it's so bad, it's good.

"Tenet" didn't insult audiences intelligence, it disregarded it by having a terrible sound mix where you couldn't hear the dialogue or the story. I guess you could argue it insulted the audiences intelligence in that Christopher Nolan apparently didn't think it was important enough to hear the dialogue and be told what the story was, implying the audience is too dumb to get the story and are only there for the visual stimulation.

06:00 Knowing was great, people should watch it.

I thought Arrival was silly. Aliens who are advanced enough to travel interstellar distances had no plan for communicating with humans once they arrived. The level of advancement to transport biology such a distance would be incredible. Creatures as advanced as Abbott and Costello should have technology capable of translating any human language as a prerequisite for making the journey. Instead, these advanced tentacle monsters passively hope humans can work out their language. If humans couldn't manage it, the trip for centuries or more was all for nothing.

How high and mighty do you think you are to call James Bond a misogynist. You are what's wrong with society today.

Y'know by strict definition, Bond was neither misogynist nor sexist. You could argue the FILMS were sexist, but there was nothing misogynist about them. James loved the ladies and the ladies loved him back. No hate there! 😉

The theatrical version of 'The Thief and the Cobbler', with the voiceovers done for the two titular characters (who originally were both mute, save for one single line of dialogue) because someone felt the visuals alone weren't enough for audiences to work out what was going on. Then apparently that wasn't enough either because they had to add musical numbers for them on top, so the finished product feels like it's explaining the same gist three times over in most of the scenes. Says a lot that the fan edit does away with all of that and the film is not only perfectly comprehensible but also far better.

It's hard to take these lists seriously when you say stuff that does not actually happen or twist something into something else to fit why you are calling it dumb. Couple of quick notes. While I have not watched it, Madame Web is apparently doing much better on streaming than in theaters. Many possible reasons. American sniper had a lot of controversy behind it also such as some of the stuff in the book it was based on were not true, and the person the story was based on turned out to not be a good person. Knowing: The aliens did not send out the numbers for people to solve nor were they there for kids to find a way to safety. A child wrote them while having twisted visions in her head many years before the bulk of the story takes place. If you actually watched the movie you would know that the aliens didn't create the numbers. It was all coincidence that Cage's character came across them and figured it out. The kids were going to go either way as the plan was for the aliens to call to them. Prometheus: We can ignore the possibility that since they are able to go to other planets, their equipment could easily be advanced enough to give them more information on their surroundings than just the air is breathable. But if you actually pay attention to how people act in real life, most of their actions are possible even if at times, idiotic. Volcano: Again, there is no way whoever wrote this list even watched the movie. The earthquake didn't "form a giant volcano under the city". The earthquake is caused by the tectonic plates moving as the volcano shifts up closer to the surface. Nobody wasted time, the idea to evacuate was brought up way before they knew it was a volcano but got shot down. And the movie showed only one scientist really after her partner died. Tommy Lee Jones character was head of the Office of Emergency management and the movie shows him butt heads with multiple people who won't listen because it would inconvenience the city. The majority of the movie takes place in one night showing them trying to do what they can in the middle of the emergency situation. The whole movie takes place in one day. And the comment at the end is idiotic. Absolutely no one said knocking a building down to divert the lava is a "long term solution". It's not even portrayed that way in the movie. It was done for the immediate safety of a hospital full of injured that would be in direct path.

It's funny how Daniel Craig blamed the Austin Powers series and the need to distance things from it for his Bond movies being just utterly bereft of fun or humor... and then Spectre ripped off Goldmember.

I liked the movie Knowing. The only thing i didn't like was the ending. Don't want to spoil anything, but the people who did die at the end did actually deserve to live.

The title should be some bad movies and movies I didn't understand in my opinion.

2004s "Around the World in 80 Days"? It was the prime example of a movie that underestimates people's intelligence with a mean-spirited story caused by lazy writing

No Shutter Island? All that intrigue and then "it was all a dream".

I thought the one for Prometheus would be about the stupid rolling giant ring escape at the end (just head left or right and let it roll past you, duh), but they make good points about how the whole movie is full of plot points that insult your intelligence.

What exactly was pulling on him? Gravity! Oh, you mean the same gravity that's NOT pulling the giant space station out of orbit? At that distance, gravity is pretty low, which is why astronauts are WEIGHTLESS. Once he hit the end of the tether and his momentum was gone, he would have just floated and she could have easily reeled him in. The entire movie is stupid.

American Sniper is meant to be seen through the eyes of Chris Kyle and how his original beliefs of what was happening when he was over there kinda fell apart over time and what that did to his psyche. It's not meant to be an accurate representation of everything that was happening at the time, especially politically.

The ending of the "Bedazzled" remake did that for me. I prefer the original, where Stanley and Elinor may have had a chance after she politely turns him down and says maybe another time which makes him hopeful they can have a relationship and he tells Lucifer that he'll get her on his own. The ending in the remake is so unbelievable and they should've done the original ending.

2:40 So this statement about American Sniper is ignorant of both the film and actual soldiers. For a soldier like Kyle the war was simple, you do your mission, watch your buddy's back, and you get home. That's it, no complicated politics, no innane drival on how academics think wars and the world should be. So you saying the movie thinks you are dumb for giving you an accurate portrait on how soldiers view their world when they are actually putting their lives on the line versus how the write does from their comfortable chair far away from danger is more telling.

DOUBLE JEOPARDY WAS GREAT

all 3 star wars sequel trilogy

Heard from the literary Bond fandom that 007 really does have the adoptive brother, Franz Oberhauser. The problem is shrinking the fictional reality as he's a completely distinct character from E. S. Blofeld. Same token: Moriarty isn't Irene Adler, Ra's Al Ghul isn't Henri DuCard, Mandarin isn't Aldrich Killian, etc. This crudeness has to stop. So no, it isn't a thankful matter that Blofeld does next to nothing but die in the unfortunate excuse for a Bond film that followed. That's just one more count of studio misandry. Granted though, it takes quite a stretch of the imagination to find a right way to handle the character after screwing up his roots.

Hey, _Double Jeopardy_ was fun, but nothing compares to the sheer idiocy of the characters in _Prometheus_ ....

I would argue that some of the more important controversy about American Sniper's story are Kyle's accounts to begin with. Did he kill a bunch of people? Yup. Were they under the circumstances he reported? Thats up for debate.

Not everything needs to make sense or be realistic. Some films can be pure dumb fun. I liked Volcano. If i wanted a film to be fully realistic then I wouldn’t bother and would just go live my life like I do any other time. But films are an escape when needed and I want them be fun.

Oh, boy. Criticize Tenet all you want, if you want. Address the temporal logic of a melee with oneself. Wrap your mind around how 6:50 can be likened to the 4D equivalent of Escher art and tell me if it is or isn't paradoxical. Quip about how Red Dwarf beat Nolan to the premise by decades. Cite how the theoretical physics consultant declared the concept impossible yet went along with getting the script written. Remind us of the storytelling rule that events should be kept understandable. The problem, Ms. or Mr. Copywriter, is that admission that you didn't understand it. I won't be surprised if there's proven fallacy in the story logic. That proof, however, can be established by analysis only, NOT by blanket statements about any given "part that made no sense."

Sorry, but you are way off base on "American Sniper". It pretty much has a 7.5 out of 10 rating and made $547.4 million on a budget of only $58 million. It was a very well received movie.

That is completely annoying of KZread.

I think I’m the only person in the world who quite enjoyed Volcano, I thought it was fun! I still watch it when it’s on TV occasionally! Except the kids. The kids annoyed me. The little boy that gets in the way and that overdramatic teenager. Couldn’t stand them. But take them out and the I thought it was good! 😅

I like it, but I don't have to take movies too seriously in order to enjoy them.

10:22 *clearly* you did not live in Los Angeles at the time. We LOVED Volcano. For-the-locals Easter Eggs, watching tourist-trap eyesores melt away, having the worst traffic-having surface streets be the scenes of such destruction…. Especially the absurdly on-the-nose racial-harmony message of everyone being covered in soot at the end (“How can I tell? They all look the *same*,” says the requisite ingenuous towheaded child survivor…) The schlock factor elevated it way beyond Dante’s Peak.

MORBIUS was a bigger insult than MADAME WEB So much so that they postponed the movie yet again to add a scene that would tie up events from NO WAY HOME They really believed that MCU fans would eat up anything related, even if nothing about made any sense And to top it off, they saw the bad publicity as good publicity, to the point of believing they got the next THE ROOM and releasing it again, only for no one to show up

What insult my intelligence in several movies is that they try to force me accept as a hero (or the best badass character etc) an actress that I can't understand why they have in the cast on the first place. Like they did in Prometheus with the outrageous scenes with Noomi Rapace. She acts like she is the badass superhero when EVERYONE else is acting like a stupid. And this is not the only movie she does that. Also she is not the only bad actress (or actor) doing that in several movies. Did she pay the producers to be in the movie and wrote by herself the self boosting roles? I wonder...

2:33 so I’ve not watched the film as it’s just not my type of film but if it’s seen from a soldier POV of course it will be simple their trained to follow orders and not really think, thinking can get a soldier killed, they are trained to trust your orders trust your commander.

Yeah this list is a stretch- Tenet was ambitious definitely doesn’t insult intelligence and Volcano wasn’t any dumber than Armageddon, Twister, Independence Day, etc etc
