Movies I liked at first but now find Meh

Most recently would be TDKR (a.k.a.: BATMAN WITH BANE 2).

It was fun the first time around, but by the second time I'd seen it, I would notice all the plot holes and continuity errors, and how so many scenes were stupid/downright cheesy...

Honestly, it's a pretty movie, with many fun scenes, but the more I think about it, the more I realize I don't really like it.

Yeah, i just cut to the Bane scenes.

Bane was indeed fucking great. I love Tom Hardy, and he kicked ass in this movie.

And now we can make fun of the voice of another character than Batman.

I might need to rewatch Blade 2 but I remember thinking it was the best of the set.

It's the best of the series by far. Mostly because Guillermo Del Toro is a fantastic director. Also didn't hurt that Ron Perlman was awesome in it.

Oh, I suppose I should mention the Star Wars prequels. I loved them when I saw them in theatres, but I find them less and less interesting with subsequent viewings. It doesn't help that my ex absolutely loves them.

Currently my favorite thing on the internet:

Honestly, though. I still love The Dark Knight Rises. Perhaps more so than The Dark Knight. Sure, it has some problems, but I can easily overlook them for the enjoyment factor the film provides. Plus, I love Nolan giving the finger to everyone that asked for Robin to be in the movies. Well played, Nolan. Well played.

Anyways, I can't really think of a specific movie that I liked at first and then found to be only "meh." That's not to say that I don't have those feelings towards specific movies, because I do. It's just early as fuck, I just woke up, and I'm drawing a blank.

I didn't enjoy Rises, I watched it once, and I don't think I'll ever watch it again.

and I thought of another movie that I find "Meh" now.

Jurassic park 2

I still enjoy the first one, and I thought I enjoyed the second. but I tried to watch it yesterday, and I got bored.

Child's Play gets sillier everytime I watch it, sorry Chuck.

JasonzSon · March 14, 2013, 12:48:40 PM

Oh... Rises. When Crash said 2 I was thinking he was talking about the animated adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns. I hate it when they re-use an acronym.

And no, for the record, I haven't watched it, so I wouldn't know if it had Bane in it or not.

L-Face · March 14, 2013, 07:45:40 PM

If you're talking about the Dark Knight Returns, no Bane. The comics came out before Bane existed. Should give the movies/comics a watch/read. They're great.

JasonzSon · March 15, 2013, 01:16:29 PM

So these were the last comics made before Frank lost his mind? I seem to recall hearing that the decline had started in this story.

Crash Dummie · March 16, 2013, 05:04:45 AM

He lost it at either Robocop, or The God Damn Batman.

JasonzSon · March 16, 2013, 08:55:18 AM

No, ASBAR is full blown insanity from the first page on. He had clearly lost it well before starting that story.

Quick short and to the point. I loved Conan the Destroyer as a kid. By about the time I was 18 I finally started to see how bad it was, though the music is still great, to bad most of the rest is really yawn fest.

Crash Dummie · June 04, 2013, 04:58:59 AM

Saw.

Age and the shitty sequels DID NOT do this movie any good. It's still decent, and the best of the bunch, but meh.
