I’m watching “Field Of Dreams” and it’s really stupid. Guys in a cornfield and hears a voice saying if you build it they will come over and over.. . He out of the blue figures out that if he builds a baseball field shoeless Joe Jackson of all people will show up.. no idea how he figured that out… then he cuts down corn and risk his farm to put a baseball field in his backyard … his wife is cool with it at first but then realizes they needed the corn to make money.
I didn’t remember it being so stupid when I watched it years ago,

What other movies don’t hold up as an adult ?

All the resident evil movies. Were gonna make super mutant zombie nightmares so we can get research data to market our products because we're part of big pharma.

Hey dumb fuck you killed like 99% of the population doing this shit who are you going to sell bioweapons to now?

Never saw those ha
 
Aliens






hear meowt.

In the time since it came out, we've developed robots and drones, both of which have been and are being used in war and to disarm bombs. The movie takes place like two hundred years in the future or whatever and they have general AI and androids. There's no reason to send humans to check out something that potentially dangerous. Send several androids (ideally ones that aren't self-aware/living) and/or drones, a whole squad. Hell, they don't even need human troops at that point. There's no point in putting people in danger, especially against such a dangerous organism. Oh, also, they have highly effective sentry turrets too. We already have robotics capable of rolling around with those guns on them so they wouldn't even need to be stationary.

Prometheus makes this even worse because they used some map bot thing to map the place out with no humans needed and it takes place what, almost a century before Aliens?

Aliens is still one of my favorite movies of all time, but lets be real, the idea of sending people in before drones/robots (WHICH THEY HAVE IN THE MOVIE) aged like a smashed avocado.

Fuck you. Aliens rocked. You aged like smashed avocado. You did.

Actin like regrettable endeavours and sending people to die isnt always on the table. Pshaw!

We also dont know if the androids were very good at combat, since we never see the ones in the early movies really do much fighting. Certainly not with firearms.

They didnt care about putting lives at risk, they wanted those marines there to put up enough of a resistance so that the "product" could be secured. Maybe they were also chuffed that "Ash" was discovered after all, and considered him a failure.

Just the THOUGHT of that glorious movie. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Kickboxer was really bad after I started training. I used to love the reruns when I was in middle/high school. I would try to do splits while watching it.

MMA def changed the way fights were made in movies.

I still dont mind watchin some 70s chop socky chinese stuff tho. The more over the top and ridiculous, the better.

One of my favorite movies as a kid was '3 Ninjas.'

R.99cc7fb13d613df9f9c11ab3a9743c75


I watched it as an adult... and its pure cringe.

Think I loved it as a kid because ninjas were cool, ninja training seemed like you were given super powers, and the movie was like some kind of wish fulfillment.

Pre-teens kicking the asses of dozens of fully-grown men?
{<hhh]

There's a reason why some kids movies are well remembered and many more are forgotten.
 
Now...keep in mind I havent seen this movie in decades...

but I loved The Last Dragon as a kid.

Then I re-watched it as a teenager and found it dated and stupid.

I hafta re-watch it again tho.

Sho-nuff was cool tho.

I'd argue the first one was pretty good. Very rewatchable.

The second... well... its decent, but has alot of flaws.

The third... worth watching. Its a popcorn movie.

After that? Absolute trash. Especially the last one 'Welcome to Raccoon City' that was supposed to be adapting the first two games.

If you add the Netflix series I don't think there's been a video game series that's had more chances at adaptation and failed embarassingly horribly.

Forgot if there were six or seven with Mila Jovovich.

Add to that the 'Welcome to Raccoon City' & Netflix series.

As a fan of the game series back in the day, this has got to be the #1 worst example of wasted potential in any adaptation ever.

Edit - There's been a few CGI movies, that haven't been absolutely terrible, but wouldn't say they're worth watching.

Agreed. You have everything you need.

When I saw the preview for the first movie, I already knew this was gonna suck and didnt bother ever watching any of them.

Does Mila make it worth it?
