For me the shape of water was the worst film I’ve ever seen because the whole story was just so weird and ridiculous… An alien and a woman getting together.

The worst part about it is that critics at the time were praising the film…

    I feel like if you’re the kind of person that likes Scott Pilgrim versus the world then you probably would have not hated ready player One.

    There’s like a very specific window of people that the entire story appeals to and if you’re not inside of that window then you’re shit out of luck.

      Arguably, it should have appealed to me. Ernest Cline is barely 10 years my senior and loved most of the same things I did. I’m just not such a self-important schmuck that I think that means it’s the best art in history.

        Agreed. I recognized and liked all the items in the checklist. But a checklist is not a story.
