    I almost said this, that I'm sure it's very rewatchable but at least I didn't find it very sticky as a piece of art.

    It's closer to riding a Rollercoaster in an amusement park than anything

    Agreed. It's good for what it is, and may have benefited from people wanting to get out more this summer after the last few years.

    Forgettable compared to what? Other summer blockbuster movies? What were you looking for that would have made it more memorable to you?

    The visuals with the camera that come from the actors actually being in planes is unique compared to just about all the other big budget movies out there, IMO.

    To each their own, but your critique just strikes me as odd when you're talking about a summer popcorn movie. I think you're comparing it to a genre of movie it's not trying to be in. The point of the genre is to be a fun roller coaster for people to ride, and the fact that people keep going back to ride it again would suggest they succeeded in what they were trying to accomplish.

    I very literally said it was more of a Rollercoaster experience

    Right. That's why I brought it back in my post. You compared it to a roller coaster ride like that was a bad thing when it's clearly the kind of experience they were trying to create as opposed to something "very sticky as a piece of art".

    Again, to each their own. If this isn't your kind of movie, that's cool. I just don't think it's reasonable to judge a movie or a show based on something it's not trying to be.

    I like roller coasters. I'm just not necessarily going to remember it beyond "that was fun" and turn it in randomly while doing other things.

    Its really just explanatory more than a criticism

    Or you know, being told to kill himself. Didnt that become a no no when the board “grew up”.

    He had no substantive argument and made a personal attack. All bets are off at that point. That was clearly initiated by War Grundle. He can personally attack but others can't respond in kind is what you're going with?

    Telling someone to kill themselves is an appropriate response to "consider the source" these days?

    I've seen War Grundle make that same post to Lyrtch in a number of threads. Idk what he was expecting in return. Seems strange this finger wagging only goes one way.

    His comment was beyond childish and well over the line. If you think telling someone to kill themselves in response to "consider the source" over a movie opinion is reasonable I don't know what to tell you.

    The hoops some people jump through to justify telling someone to kill themselves is weird.

    Y’all act like war grundle never gets call out first ever. Not saying war grundle views I agree with but my god. It’s ok to admit that telling someone to kill themselves is not ok on any level.

    He could have replied something about War Grundle’s opinions being bad or something. Telling someone to kill themselves isnt a reasonable or acceptable reply to anything. But i doubt anyone here is surprised you think its ok because of who did it.

    If you can't tell this is an excuse for people to give Lyrtch shit by almost exclusively FSU fans then we probably can't go any further in this conversations.

    You seem to be reaching to excuse his actions. He was wrong, it's OK to admit that.

    grundle never ever makes substantive contributions so i responded in kind

    also it might be gauche but we've never treated it as off limits except when certain people wanted thrasher banned

    Not saying you should be banned, but I definitely think we’ve kind of set an unwritten rule that telling people to kill themselves isn’t ok.

    I don’t think anyone is disagreeing about War Grundle being 10 IQ.
