Rules: explain why

Ready player one.

That has to be one of the cringiest movies I’ve seen, is tries so hard, too hard with it’s “WE LOVE YOU NERD, YOU’RE SO COOL FOR PLAYING GAMES AND GETTING THIS 80S REFERENCE” message and the whole “corporation bad, the people good” narrative seems written for toddlers… The fan service feels cheap and adds nothing to the story.

Finally, they trying to make the people believe that very attractive girl with a barely visible red tint spot on her face is “ugly”… Like wtf?

Yet it received decent reviews plus being one of the most successful movies of that year.

    The last one is as bad only with bad jokes and unfinished CGI

    How is that any different than Ragnarok?

      Most of the jokes landed in Ragnarok and you don’t see Thor jumping like an idiot, he actually has badass moments

        Some of the jokes land, “most” is debatable. The few badass and dramatic moments are ruined by being immediately followed by some slapstick bullshit.
