I don’t agree with the take on Nolan’s films. The Dark Knight 2008, Interstellar, Inception and Oppenheimer are absolute classics. Like top 100 movies of all time. 

I also second Leo on GoT. It’s true tho once they ran out of the material it slumped.

 John Wick is a “fast movie” franchise, one that I enjoy because Reeves is an all time favourite and the actual aesthetic of the last 2 movies is superb.

I agree about Marvel tho - everything after the original Iron Man is overrated IMO.

I agree with all of that.

People who trash Chris Nolan are mad!

"Game of Thrones. The most overrated show in the history. Nothing else needs to be said.."

100% agree, but then again not my thing..

They're not trash, just overrated.

Interstellar and Inception are def overrated. They are well made, but there's some kind of psuedo-profundity about them. They try to act profound but are not.

Game of Thrones and Vikings (till 5th season) series are masterpiece in my opinion. I yet to watch something better than that.

I also felt that. It's not completely profound, but it's way better than movies that are just copies of the same old thing. Maybe the excellent soundtracks make it feel profound.

I loved GoT.

I have considered watching Vikings but didn't have the time.

Are GoT and Vikings similar?

@Leo Gura I think you're undervaluing "well-made" though. It really is well-made, and I think that alone makes it not overrated. It's hard to find movies of that quality, creativity, film, acting, emotions, the amazing acting, music (the great Hans Zimmer), etc. 

Just like how you think the skill of humor is underrated (your valuable things require development over time video), I think you're looking at the value here from certain angles (possibly biased). 

Also I would say they are profound, but maybe not as profound as your videos, which of course would be the case as these are big budget hollywood films targeted towards the masses.

If you're comparing it to superhero movies, sure, Interstellar is a masterpiece.

[Jayson G]

@Leo Gura Like I noticed a pattern where you'd sometimes talk about video games or movies related to monsters (If I recall correctly). 

And I saw that movie "a quiet place" and thought it was good, not like amazing, but pretty nice. But you seemed to really love it. 

I think maybe the idea of "value" is just biased based on how we grew up. I don't resonate much with things like monsters or stuff like that, so I don't see much value in those movies. 

I guess from one perspective the idea of something being underrated or overrated could largely be related to our perceptions, biases, what we resonate with, etc. 

I'm not comparing it to superhero movies. I just resonated with it tremendously, which allowed me to really dig deeper into its depth and distinctions more than most people would, allowing me to see more of its genius. But at the same time, that can probably be done for many films. 

[Leo Gura]

@Jayson G Why would you expect people to like the same movies?

Of course it's subjective.

If I share a piece of art, all it means is that I happen to like it. Not that everyone should like it.

I would much rather watch A Quiet Place than Interstellar. That's just me.

No matter how good or bad a movie is, it never has the right to be pushed so hard everywhere.

The best sci-fi movie? Interstellar.

The best soundtrack? Interstellar.

The best father-daughter film? Interstellar.

The people who are masturbating on it just haven't seen enough movies. End of story.

It's not the best, but it's definitely among the best.

Of course, it's brilliant!

You are missing on a lot. They are not similar but are equally good. Vikings have more action and SD stage purple colours in it. 

"Breaking Bad" is another top rated series which I'll watch soon.

True, they are mediocre at best and they have been glorified too much recently.
