Titanic is actually worth a watch though. Whereas for Minecraft, I found even the teaser to be a challenge.

Maybe I’m in a minority, but I thought Titanic was a bunch of melodramatic crap when there were more interesting true stories that the movie could have been about.

Minecraft just seems like the type of movie where lines like, “Were gonna rock our blocks off!” And that will be their peak writing.

A teaser is of course just a teaser and not the final product.

It can still be redeemed. Look at Sonic.

Titanic is fantastic. You watch the movie completely ready for the ship to crash. But at some point, your brain stops and you’re more invested in the characters. Then boom, motherfucking iceberg.

True Lies, another James Cameron movie, does that twist too. Where you watch it for one thing, then surprise, you’re now invested in another thing.

They’re all corporate cash grabs now. Watch what you enjoy and don’t let anyone tell you you’re missing out on them.

No you don’t. You only know about flying and French girls. You don’t know anything else about the rest of the movie.

I was thinking about this recently. There’s a lot of bad movies that come out every year since forever. Usually, they just kind of disappear and die.

But only thanks to social media have we had a way to mock the studio.

I’m just imagining the memes made of bad movies from the 2000s.

Back then you had to wait for the SNL or MAD skit or Weird Al to make a song.
