    it’s a very expensive, pretty, and totally incoherent mess of a film that a few people feel is profound but most people think is a colossal piece of shit.

    It sounds like what people should have thought about Inception, but everyone instead apparently fucking loved that movie.

    All the hate given toward Megalopolis makes me want to see it. Before that, I wasn’t interested just based on the poster.

      I eventually want to see Megalopolis too.

      I like watching art house movies and then figuring out what I don’t like about it. Even the ones everyone loves. Magnolia was one people loved and I just didn’t get.

        Yeah, well the thing is for me a lot of those types of movies are great but some are absolute trash. And then there are some that I have a lot of mixed feelings about. I don’t really get most David Lynch movies for example, but I’ve rarely felt like watching them were a waste of time because at least you’ll see something interesting. Then there’s total bizarre experience films. I have no fucking clue what Holy Mountain was, but I was fascinated by it.
