Woof, when Psycho II gets a higher rating than The Outsiders and a half star less than Return of The Jedi I have to admit our tastes don’t quite align, haha. But I commend the effort as I am sure you’ll be sitting through some painfully boring movies as the year goes on!
My problem with personal reviews is that I don’t finish most of the movies I’d consider one star. And I don’t rate anything I haven’t finished. So that just leaves we with no movies below two stars. I have the same problem with books and video games. So I appreciate you setting a task out and following it through, even though I really don’t think I could do it!

Oh yeah, I remember that now. It’s been a minute since I watched it. So that’s what OP was asking about? Tarantino does care about his craft, but that’s a little different than caring about other peoples inaccuracies in movie-making.

I never understand focusing on such minute details in a fictional movie. It’s like trying to prove it’s not real, but we all know it’s not real as it’s a scripted movie. Pointing out misinformation is important with a “documentary” like Plandemic, but with fiction it’s not so important. I have a buddy that is an ex-marine that focuses on the accuracy of medals in movies and it bugs him when they’re not accurate. If this scene is inaccurate I’m going to give Tarantino the benefit of the doubt since he likely had people on set that were supposed to handle accurately portraying military at the time.

Glad this comments section is showing this movie love. I was very impressed with this remake and like another commentor said I was super pumped for Ash to meet Mia but then everything got canceled.

Why is it not a crime to ask stupid ass questions in r/movies?

Stfu, goddamn. You’re wrong. Talking down to people telling you you’re wrong just makes you look like a fucking idiot. T2 is sitting at 29 in the best movies of all time on IMDB. No matter how you manipulate measurements it’s highly regarded as one of the best movies ever made. Just take the loss and consider deleting this stupid fucking post.

I am getting so tired of these posters on this sub that want to start a conversation but have no fucking clue how to do it so they just post blatantly wrong opinions that they pull out of their ass. OP acting like T2 is some unknown gem is just another example. T2 is regularly regarded as one of the best action and sci fi movies ever made. I haven’t looked in a while but I’d bet $100 it’s within the top 100 IMDB movies. Just checked, number 29. Wtf is OP thinking with this goofy post?

That’s fair, ultimately it should convey your opinions and your opinions alone. I still wish you luck on your journey and commend the effort! Also, when I look at my reviews I’m constantly questioning my own thought process when I reviewed this or that movie, so I get the shifting over time for sure.
