    In honor of today's date, my controversial film opinion is that the Star Wars saga is completely overrated. I am an 80's kid and grew up with them; however, if I am being honest, while they are watchable, I have never sought them out and don't get the whole cultural phenomena thing (though I can admit that the toys I grew up with were pretty kick-a**). For me, the films themselves wouldn't even rank in my top ten sci-fi movies of all time. I do know that I am the minority here though and expect to be lambasted for this opinion. I can admit that the effects of the movie were revolutionary for their time; so, there is that.

    I'll admit. I'm both easily amused and entertained.

    Clearly Tom Cruise is a Vampire LOL! The dude is in his 50's and still looks, well, like that HAHA!! I enjoyed his Jack Reacher films, I didn't want to, despite his lack of stature, he delivered on intensity. He has made some interesting Sci-Fi films, I liked Edge of Tomorrow, Groundhog Day with Aliens HAHAH!! William Smith? I Am Legend is watchable, but it's no Omega Man.

    Agree to disagree. I found that movie incredibly boring. Personally I found Skull Island highly enjoyable.

    Both of those actors are very good at playing themselves. Where Tom Cruise shines is really the stunts more than the acting itself. The man does all of his stunts himself, and it's honestly impressive.

    I watched it and found it repetitive, slightly long, and with no clear conclusion. When it was all said and done I liked the thought but not the script.

    I loved the first 90% of Hereditary but hated the way it ended.

    i loved The Babadook but it gave me a huge case of the depressions. I will probably never watch it again. Or I might.

    Didn't see It Follows or Saint Maude or Midsomar or The Lighthouse but want to. I really want to. Also I really really want to.

    I think that covers the emergence of art-house horror movies. Which I like but not blindly. Not because the critics claim I should.

    I think we agree on this. I think range can be great, but let's look at William Shatner: he didn't have it, but he will always be remembered because he brought an iconic character to life.

    ...but then, I really appreciate people like Meryl Streep (who can play basically anything).
