EEAAO was one of the most popular movies of the year before it won a bunch of awards.
Yeah, it definitely had that Undertale vibe. People on social media couldn't resist bringing it up and calling it the best movie ever made for like two months or so.

And so the movie is absurd, wacky, and random.

"Haha now we're rocks with googly eyes cause multiverse"

"Haha now our fingers are hot dogs cause multiverse"

It's just... it really is that kind of humor. You can try to elevate it by saying that the movie justifies it, but that doesn't change the DNA of what it is.

Like what I said about the previous topic, you seem to be really hung on the humor when that isn't even the main thing people like about the movie. It's like weird making these judgement calls on a movie you didn't even watch.

That's fine to say "I have no interest in watching the movie.". But then you start making blatantly false claims like "the movie is all meme/i'm so weird humor" when in reality if you actually watch the movie a lot of those "weird" things make sense in context to the story.

I said earlier that it doesn't matter if the movie justified it. It's still "lol we're rocks, lol we have hot dog fingers, lol butt plugs and dildos, lol everything bagel"

Did anyone else think the dad had the charm of a young Jackie Chan? I know Jackie Chan is used in rascist jokes. But this time I feel it actually applies and is a legitimate compliment.

The directors said that they originally had Jackie Chan in mind for the main lead, until eventually they rewrote the script for Michelle Yeoh when Jackie Chan turned down the film. I honestly think it was for the better because Ke Huy Quan was amazing in this film.

I liked the movie but is nothing that has never been seen before. It's just that Hollywood previously only cared about the same type of movies and now they are actually caring about crazier stories that've been happening in Anime/Manga for years.

You seem really invested in threads for a movie you refuse to watch. Its fine if you dont want to watch it, but I dont see the point of joining discussions for things you couldnt care less about.

I wanted to check it out but Jamie Lee Curtis having a "Feud" with Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness just immediately turned me away from ever watching the movie.

For weeks she'd throw little jabs at Multiverse of Madness, saying how her movie is the better Multiverse movie and how people should go see it instead.

I like Jamie, but that is just an immediate turn off about seeing her movie.

It's what's known as "Dramedy" with a bit of wire fu shit mixed in. Someone said Kung Fu Hustle earlier and that's kind of the same atmosphere.

I heard this movie was conceived in 2010. Then I read the plot summary and it just sounds like a less coherent version of Scott Pilgrim Versus The World, and I opted to watch that instead.

Scott Pilgrim should have won an oscar.

I love Scott Pilgrim but the two movies are wildly different. This is a weird comparison.

Be honest Gob. Ive seen your uh.. views before. You saw the things going in butts and that was all it took for you to go this is terrible. The rest is flimsy justification.

But this video does a decent job of summing up what I dislike about the movie and its sense of humor. It's not 'exactly' the same thing, but it's the same vibe as what I'm talking about:

I don't 100% agree with that video, but a lot of the statements are true about cringe 'quirky' writing.

Im not going to watch whatever boring white dude complaining about woke culture this is my guy, just admit youre grossed out by butt stuff because youre got issues.

(its not exactly the same thing because you dont dislike the movie for its humor because you didnt watch the goddamn movie)

It's a meme movie that I'm not interested in. I'm not saying you aren't allowed to love it. If it's your favorite movie of all time, that's cool, I'm happy for you.

But I'm not gonna watch it, because it doesn't appeal to me.

so what youre saying is you decided it was a meme movie all on your own without knowing anything outside of 1 or 2 memes you saw and because of this solidified your opinion that it wasn't for you?

I can see why you hold the political views you do now.

I watched the trailer, looked at a plot synopsis, checked the parents guide on IMDB, read some reviews, heard some input from people here (and on Twitter, YouTube, and other sources when it first came out and got huge hype.)

Short of watching the movie myself, I think I have a pretty good understanding of what it is.

I'm not interested in it.

I thought it was pretty enjoyable. Raimi carried it a lot with his style, for sure. The visuals were great, especially for Zombie Strange.

The story...was what it was. MCU standard mumbo jumbo and macguffin stuff. I did like how the conflict resolved, even if it was pretty cliche.

Middle of the road MCU movie. I don't expect amazing stuff when I watch comic book movies. That's why movies like The Dark Knight, Logan, Days of Future Past, Infinity War, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Zack Snyder's Justice League really stood out for me. They each hit the tone just right, in my opinion.

The script was the thing that made me dislike the movie the most. Characters were making some of the dumbest choices and the motivation they used for Wanda was fucking weak. The cameos were literally exposition fodder though I will admit they at least died in pretty cool ways and were probably the only reason this movie made over billions of dollars at the BO. I also felt America Chavez was severely wasted as a character. You literally have a character that can create portals to different multiverses and you utilize it in the most basic way possible. In fact, I wouldn't even call her a character, just a talking mcguffin. The only reason I'm not knocking the movie down anymore because it at least TRIED something new. I really enjoyed the horror stuff, even though a lot of the times it made no sense to have a "jump scare", but it did at least try something new.
