I'm about halfway through
Pacific Rim: Uprising
. It's quite awful but I'm quite entertained . I keep thinking of this quote from Umberto Eco on cult films, where he says something about a few clichés being irritating, but when there are enough of them in a movie, they start conversing among themselves and you have a cult film. This actually seems to be true.
Cabin in the Woods
is another movie where the clichés come so thick and fast that I actually started to enjoy it.

Every time you spot a cliché you announce it and have a drink?

Yeah, it's great fun! All that gratuitous destruction. And the not-so-subtle references to Godzilla type monsters…

I think I too found Breakfast Club quite boring. It's very cultish, though.

Any movie that doesn't have characters that you can role play on a message board is obviously absolute trash.

Lol what about Shakespeare plays?
suck it.

They tend to have a lot of characters, so there's always someone to identify with.

True. I'm Ophelia.

I'm always Hamlet. Even in Macbeth.

Sophievirus — 5 years ago(May 18, 2020 11:56 PM)

Same. I'm Ophelia even in real life.

Be careful. She was mad and suicidal. Good taste in flowers, though.

Yeah i cannot believe somebody keeps making that topic
We should just discuss the film itself because aint nobody from filmboards anything like those character from The Breakfast Club.
