I hate that movie too, but because I read the book and it was great. they completely ruined all the story and worldbuilding to make it a shitty feel-good movie for tweens.

Nosferatu, the one that just came out, is very well done. It's also just Nosferatu: Again.
I was very bored watching the movie because it's the same story I've heard before many times. Those 2 hours and 12 minutes dragged hard.
Titanic.
Why? Hmmm, hard to say. Seems obvious to me. I'm totally ok with a love story but I don't really care for romance stories. Let me explain the difference to me. I'm not saying this is a formal definition. To me a love story is drama and romance is melodrama. It felt more like melodrama to me.
And to interest the men, let's throw in a disaster flick. If people fall off the boat and hit the propeller on the way down, men will love it and women will love the rest. No pandering at all.
Plus screw the priceless gem, just toss it overboard.
If you think the movie eas cringe, definitely don't read the book. It's so much worse.

Interstellar. Slow, stupid and the ending. That fucking idiotic ending. I still regret the 3 hours of my life I lost to it.

My wife and I are huge fans of the Ready Player One book and we could not watch the movie. Literally stopped it. I tried a few more times to resume it but I kept having to stop. I finally finished it on my eight or ninth session.
if you think that movie was bad, you have no idea how painful it is for someone who loved the book.

Donnie Darko.
It was so overhyped back when it came out because the OG hipster crowd of the early 90s thought it was cool, as did younger people who valued things that were “indie” as if that inherently adds value.
