Vacation is cool but I don't care for the other two.

Re: December 5th 2024
i guess. sometimes it's good to re-evaluate or expand my horizons. tonight, i can go back to something i've watched thousands of times.

Re: December 5th 2024
Dumb & Dumber is excellent. Vacation is very good and Fletch is just average in my opinion

Re: December 5th 2024
I've never been a big fan of comedies. I do enjoy some of the older ones like Porky's, Weekend at Bernie's, The Vacation films, Scrooged, etc. but overall it's one of my least favorite genres.

Re: December 5th 2024
horror is the best genre. i don't know how to rank the rest of them.
but some of my favorite movies are comedies. and my favorite actress is probably most associated with comedies. so yeah.

Re: December 5th 2024
Horror and Sci-Fi are my two favorite genres with Suspense Thrillers right behind them. Action would come in third place. But Comedy, Fantasy, Animated films, family films, etc. are just not for me most of the time. There's been a few exceptions but not many.

Re: December 5th 2024
i don't consider science fiction to actually be a genre of it's own, as far as film goes. change my mind?

What's something like Blade Runner then? Too damn boring to be action or suspense.

Re: December 5th 2024
Sci-Fi is a genre of it's own but it does crossover into other genres at times.
Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Andromeda, Farscape, Lost in Space, Stargate, etc. These are all hardcore sci-fi films and series.
An argument can be made that Star Wars also fits into fantasy due to the use of shit like the force but imo that would be a subgenre because it's core Sci-Fi.
As mentioned above the genre does often overlap often into other genres. Movie Examples, War of the Worlds, the Terminator and Predator franchises, the Alien films, Godzilla franchise, Marvel & DC films, and some examples of TV shows X-Files, Lost, Taken, Supernatural, The Flash, Dune, The Boys, etc.

Old School doesn't make you laugh your balls off until you're a eunuch? I can sing like Michael Jackson for a week after, that shit is gold.

Re: December 5th 2024
What about something like Gattaca? Where everything about it is futuristic and hinges on fictional science stuff.
