I agree with the OP. Star Wars sucks. I thought it sucked back in the late seventies when I saw the original at a theater. I watched about half of the Empire Strikes back and thought that sucked as well. I haven't seen another Star Wars movie and don't plan on it because Star Wars sucks. I'd rather watch paint dry.

OK so you don't like sci-fi, magical fiction or comics. What DO you like, just curious?
Oh I like Sci-Fi. I read just about every science fiction book they had in the school and public library when I was growing up and I still have a big box of comics from the seventies.

I don't care for these cheesy movies with crappy acting that use special effects to make up for bad storylines. I constantly hear people make comments about how good the special effects are. I watch movies for the acting and plot.

I don't understand how someone could come to the conclusion that I don't like sci-fi or comics because I don't like the special effect movies they crank out monthly these days.

You expect too much of movies. Smoke a J and just "be entertained", dorks like you who put movies under a microscope suck all the fun out of it. ;) :lol:

IMO the effects in Jurassic World are WAAAY better than the effects in Jurassic Park, doesn't make it a "better" movie but visually it was way more entertaining.

I don't even know what Sandman is.

Just looked at a trailer for the series on youtube. I'll pass. No way I could sit and watch that. I'd rather be out in the yard pulling weeds on a 105 degree day without anything to drink. :mrgreen:

I don't care for that series either. I watched the first but never finished any of the sequels.

But I can watch movies like Black Hawk Down, We were Soldiers, Apollo 13, etc... again and again. I like movies based on real events with good acting. I find them much more mentally stimulating and thought provoking. Imagining what you would do, how you would react under those circumstances. I don't find the modern special effects movies entertaining. I find them boring. If I want to just kill time with some mindless plot I'd much rather watch Key & Peele or Dave Chapelle skits on youtube. Hell I'm more entertained watching those videos of people farting in public than some movie made in Maya or 3D Studio.
