Before any dumb MCU fans (such as zoilus) accuse me of being biased, I wasn't the one who called GotG2 garbage. Those are the exact words of another movie critic:
Asked his opinions on the movie after seeing it, our other resident house critic B. Alan Orange seemed less than impressed with the outcome.
“It was like seeing Ghostbusters 2 for the first time. The last half of the movie is a big colorful mess. I dare anyone to truly explain what is going on. And it’s a good thing that all the characters are constantly laughing at their own jokes. That means I didn’t have to. This might be one of Marvel’s worst movies. It’s on the verge of being straight up garbage.”
I myself haven't seen it yet so I won't give it a rating yet because I'm always unbiased and never rate a movie until after I've seen it.

Well, what about all the critics who loved it? Are we supposed to just disregard them?

DC Fan cracks me up. He is actually becoming a semi-decent troll. I love the 'I am 100% unbiased' rant that he puts in all of his posts. Here, I will do it for you. You give GOTG2 a 1/10. I know this for a fact. It is an MCU film and that is what you rate all of them. It has an 86% on RT right now and many critics like it. They say it is not as good as the first, which is to be expected. That movie is top 5 comic book movies ever made. I know you gave it a 1/10, but most people think so.

I saw the first GotG movie for the first time last week. Thought it was a good laugh. A great antidote to all those po-faced super hero movies (Batman and Superman reboots - I mean you!)

Marvel's next film could be Chris Pratt shitting for two hours and it would still be netter than every DCEU film combined.

Oh man, here's another bad review from a critic: "a ponderous, smothering, over-pixelated zeppelin crash of a movie scored by a choir that sounds like it's being drowned in lava."

Wow only a truly terrible movie can get a review like that! Nothing is as bad as " It’s on the verge of being straight up garbage." Whether its a movie review or a restaurant review or any other review, the absolute worst thing that can happen is to get a review that contains the word "garbage". When people see or hear the word "garbage" in a movie review or restaurant review or any other review, only negative thoughts come to mind. Only a truly terrible movie would get a review that contains the word "garbage". LOL!!! |

It's called an outlier. Here is the headline for a review of Batman v Superman " Batman V Superman review: Good lord, that was hot garbage" Here's another Another and despite those vicious reviews, you still love the movie! |

"On the verge" of being garbage? It IS garbage. The first one was garbage too. Almost every superhero movie is tepid, lowest-common-denominator, focus group'd to death garbage.
Oh look, we have Chris Pratt cracking dumb one-liners, a baby Vin Diesel, Karen Gillan in a role she's entirely too talented for, and Zoe Saldana with green skin, not to be confused with Zoe Saldana in blue skin from that James Cameron shit festival.
The last Avengers movie and those Captain America movies are unwatchable. Scarlett Johansson is horrendous as the Black Widow, with her Kardashian-esque vocal fry, and notice how every Marvel movie has Scarlett Jo and Jennifer Lawrence constantly doing those "three point landings" where they land with their heads down, then the camera goes close-up as they raise their eyes forward.
That same shot, over and over and over again, in every comic book movie. They don't just beat a dead horse, they beat it to death, call in a Red Priestess from Game of Thrones to resurrect it, then beat it to death again. The worst part is that it's borrowed from Trinity's repertoire in The Matrix films...almost 20 years ago.
Seriously, how do people sit through this stuff? And don't even get me started on Skank In The Shell. "I'm a woke Hollywood actress who tells the plebs to vote for Hillary and champions the rights of the downtrodden, but excuse me while I play the role of a Japanese woman in one of Japan's biggest franchises and tell everyone to STFU when they cry foul." Hey, you play by the rules of the Special Snowflakes, you die by the rules of the Special Snowflakes...
Now they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Prep for the inevitable Moon Knight and Quasar movies, or maybe we'll get X-Factor with Strong Guy and Multiple Man! What about a Freedom Force movie? Maybe they'll cast Carlos Mencia as Vibe, the gay Hispanic superhero from Marvel whose special power is breakdancing! Not gay enough? No problem! There's always Leather Boy of the Great Lakes Avengers (the "Midwestern Branch" of the Avengers), whose special power is wearing assless chaps and a ball gag. (I am not making this up, Leather Boy is a real Marvel character.)
Say, when is the 17th Spider Man movie coming out?
But I think the final straw for me was the decision to cast Ben Affleck as Batman, which is the worst decision by D.C. since the decision to cast George Clooney as Batman. Enough already.

Here's a snippet from a review of GOTG2 which, by the way, currently has a pretty healthy RT score: Vol. 2 still has the loosey-goosey feel of a rogue epic that the kids made when the grown-ups weren't watching. Only a turd blossom could resist it. Hear that, Anne Hathaway Fan? According to the press, you are a turd blossom! |
