Sorry but these scores are a lot harder to disregard than the previous ones. |
To be fair, I'm not trying to impress anyone. I know what I like, and keep in mind my favorite movie of all time is/are Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man's Chest and At World's End as one unified experience. I mean, I like a lot of movies, and I find value in some weird ones. I have no idea what drives my love.
Example, I didn't like Pacific Rim at all, but love Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon.
I Love All three Hobbit movies but hate the first Harry Potter movie. (Love 2 throuh 8, though).
meanwhile, my movie collection also has Wes Anderson stuff in there, animated stuff, awards season indies, stuff like Birdman and The Revenant, I like artsy films, I like fantasy and sci fi, I love bombastic stupid movies and introspective thinkpieces.
I went to school for film and television production with a specialty in creative writing. I have the credentials to be a critic...and I genuinely feel that the MCU is knocking it out of the park as one of the greatest experiences in cinema history. I feel that the MCU is as important to the history of film as Lord of the Rings. I feel that it is to the sci-fi and superhero genre what Goodfellas was to the Crime movie. 50 years from now, people will still be talking about this with the same sort of love they have for Star Wars.
So when I give almost all of the films in the franchise a high 8 or low 9, that's me just feeling that, on the global scale, they really are all that close in quality.
And as a person who owns damn near 1000 movies and TV shows on DVD/Blu Ray, I have a lot to compare it to.
But with that said, these are my personal ratings, not the ratings I expect to force on others :P
