1) "The end of John Carpenter's The Thing is a mystery.... Nobody knows who is the alien and who is human."
ARE YOU BLIND??!!
The movie hits you over the head with the fact that Macready is human and Childs is the fcking alien.
NEXT!!

Batman used autopilot in Dark Knight Rises and it was awesome.

I have a slew of last jedi ones, but I'll just do one for now.
Luke Skywalker wouldn't behave the way he did in Last Jedi when the entire first trilogy showed he didn't handle pressure too well

Most of the complaints about The Dark Knight Rises.
A lot of the complaints about The Last Jedi.
Most of the complaints about Man of Steel.

The Hobbit could be made with one movie.
While it may not have needed 3, it certainly needed 2 unless people thought the battle of the 5 armies was going to be 2 minutes to coincide with the number of pages dedicated to it in the book.

When people desperately argue that the relationship between Anna and Marnie was lesbian. Because, you know, young girls do not dance with each other, or eat together, or hold hands, or hug each other unless they're lesbians.

Oh, by Movie Arguments you mean arguments ABOUT movies. I thought you meant arguments IN movies.
I was going to say that if I was in the jury room in 12 Angry Men, I would have convinced Henry Fonda that his argument was wrong and that the kid was guilty.

the w h o l e american cinema is great argument because we have the slickest military propaganda commercials before the movie starts.

Watching violent movies makes us sickos.
There was this twat on imdb who claimed Cannibal Holocaust tries to make you identify with the murderous film crew. I guess they must have fast forwarded the rest. Even so, the scenes are never shot that way at all, it says more about that guy that HE identified with the rapist murderers...
Waaah, its dated. Shut up!!!
Another moron was like, "oh, I don't like senseless gore. The fact it doesn't bother you makes you obviously inferior to my high and fucking mightiness!" Well, no! I am a grown man, who, because I have not lived a sheltered life, am able to handle mature subject matter and imagery. Or put simply, I'm an adult who can handle material meant for adults. Not a prissy little girlyboy who probably eats tofu and watches Care Bears.

These are real arguments morons have had with moi.
In Aliens, the Queen got on the Sulaco by hiding in Bishop. Me: A 12 foot monster hid inside a human sized robot? By ...going up his ass, obviously.
"Its a Midigun" - referring to the MiniGun in Terminator 2.
Jamie Lee Curtis is in Alien. 👍
Films nobody has ever heard of: Apocalypse Now, Scarface (1983)....
An argument I had with a friendly poster. When asked what happened to the DSRV in The Hunt for Red October, the poster referred to events in the book, it goes back to USS Pigeon. I pointed out that this was just pure speculation as the movie did not refer to the vessel USS Pigeon, you can't assume it happened the same way as the book. The book, he argued, takes precedence. No it doesn't, says I, you're filling the gaps with your own imagination, for all we know, it could be under attack from a giant squid. 😜
Its not called B-17, its called Memphis Belle. 😉

That'd be an interesting topic as well... Like how somebody will argue that "We have to stop that Tyrannosaurus Rex by safely capturing it" Wait... WHAT??!ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FCKING MIND???!! Just kill it before it eats a school bus.

Cobb is not still dreaming at the end. This is correct I agree. I should have phrased the antithesis in order to better corroborate with the original thread question. The above is what I believe the film leans towards based on the evidence and I'm not fond of the argument that he is still dreaming. My opinion has always been that he is awake at the end of the movie. His lack of wedding ring, kid's faces and his father-in-law's presence are all indicative of reality, not to mention that the only device that provides tension about the meaning of the ending is not his totem, thus, it's meaningless.

"Black Swan is sexist because the protagonist is a female professional who goes crazy so the film is saying women who want to be professionals are crazy."
A real loon on the old IMDb seriously made this argument.

I don't think they were lesbians, but I think you'd have to be blind to deny those undertones are there.

Argument about "the last Jedi": "The bombs fall on the cruiser because of gravity. This can't work."
Yeah right. In a universe where light-sabers exist, where explosions in space make noise, and where laser cannons backfire.
If you want physically correct movies, don't watch Star Wars.
