Funny how it is the same set of people who always bash anything thing popular par for the course on this message board. The move is great and I gave it a 8.5.

Also I like Justin Bieber's new album it got some catchy songs on it. Bring on the hate MFers.

Funny how most schlock continues to be schlock when people eat it up, you mean.

Go watch your Transformers movies.

...and that's all I've ever said. I believe I gave it a 5.5 or 6 of 10. This perception of polarization is created by the film's defenders attacking every criticism someone has, even if that critic isn't saying that it's terrible. Critic = detractor, detractor = hater, hater = horrible person who must be shunned, shamed, and silenced!

It's not so much your rating, it's your insistence that everyone must agree with your opinion. You've posted about 100 times in this thread. We get it. You didn't like it. Let's move on with our lives.

Bull. Everything I have said was in DIRECT RESPONSE to others doing this. Did you see the post I was JUST responding to?!

I will not sit by and watch as they sit in their echo-chamber and insist that our opinion is something it isn't (they mischaracterize it). I will not sit by while they insist that I/we must agree with them or else we/I are just some kind of hater they can dismiss. It's ABSOLUTELY LAUGHABLE to see people behave this way while accusing others of behaving this way. Instead of acknowledging valid criticisms they choose to cry about the criticizers.

Boo-hoo. Grow up.

I never attack their opinions alone. Someone disagrees in an unjustifiable way I counter their rationale and point out what is wrong with their assumptions. When I do THAT people get defensive, which is their problem. I'm not going to stop telling it like it is to the people who need to hear it just because they don't want to hear it and want to go on believing this movie is better than it is.

Don't think that pointing out the number of posts I have in this thread will shame me into staying out. I'll continue breaking up this echo-chamber as necessary and I expect others to do the same wherever they find such things.

Picked up Wild Gunman today... another NES Zapper light gun game from Nintendo. Also tested a SEGA Genesis Model 1 my mother found at a dumpster and attempted repair on a broken SEGA Saturn controller I bought at a pawn shop.



After that, I recorded another video to show the problem one of my NES consoles developed yesterday (stuck in black and white):

Sorry, guys. I was wrong about your movie. Star Wars Episode VII The Force Awakens is great.

I wrote something up in why I enjoyed the film more the second time I went to see it:

http://mgpotter.com/why-i-had-to-see-the-force-awakens-a-second-time/

If you are too lazy to click the link, the basic point is that I was not relaxed the first time because I was too concerned it would suck.

Michael

I said the same thing the second after the lights came on after my 2nd viewing "I liked it MORE the 2nd time" And pretty much for the exact reasons why you stated. I could relax and enjoy it more. There was no nervous apprehension of "is this going to suck ass like the previous ones?!?". I wasn't trying to make a million connections and read into everything. I was just sitting there and enjoying it for what it was -- a great Star Wars movie.

OK, so i finally saw it for the first time over the OMNI IMAX theater (1 of 7 in the USA). It wasnt that bad after all.

Although Kylo Ren looked too much like a sad EMO 'tween.

Saw it for the 3rd time on Saturday night.
Ultra Screen with Dolby Atmos sound.

Loved it just as much.

I still will argue that while Daisy Ridley is very good in it, Boyega just steals every single scene he is in. He just crushes his role yet I hear very little talk about him.

I wonder too if Ren knows/knew about "the girl". At the very first mention of her to him by the Star Destroyer captain, he freaks out and choke holds the dude. Seems like a strange reaction for just hear the droid was helped by "a girl" -- he flips out.

I noticed that too, someone mentions "girl" and he goes all apeshit. Im thinking he knows something about her, but I dont think she knows anything about him.
