Well I personally hate when people trash, troll, and mock honest basic questions. I've been on the bad side of it this week on Facebook cause I asked a question about sex. And I got treated so bad from like 85% of the people there. People are just internet jerks cause it makes them feel powerful and better than you. They can go fuck off.

Honestly I wasn't allowed to watch lots of stuff till mid to late teens cause my parents were super religious and most movies were "filled with evil and sex" so... Even star wars I never saw till I was like 14? And there's nothing bad in those films.

I got to lotr when I was around 20 I think. They were ok but I didn't care for them too much. I enjoyed the Hobbit more. Then on a rewatch of lotr I fell in love. And everytime since then I just enjoy it more and more. Like, I have a tattoo now that I designed myself, I have a whole bedroom wall with lotr art, and posters, and props, and even my own woodburning project I just finished... Absolutely obsessed. And originally I was like "yeah they're good and ok but I'm not super blown away."

You are right about people overhyping films. That's why I stopped caring about hype for older famous movies. I'll watch it if in interested and I'll either enjoy it or I won't. People say Aliens (alien 2) is the best and I don't care for it. But I absolutely think the first one is genius.

Terminator 2 is considered the best of the franchise. And to me it holds up to that hype.

Blade runner i thought was so weird and incomprehensible the first time I watched. Then years later I was like, "Eh I guess I'll revisit it to review how bad it is for my YouTube." But it's an amazing beautiful film. Lives up to the hype but it tooke me two or three viewings to realize it.

Star wars is honestly the most overrated and overhyped set of movies of all time. I love star wars but there's no denying they're ridiculously overhyped. But I love and enjoy them. Reviewed all of them this year actually.

Watch what you want don't try to force yourself to like or hate it. And remember, with the SUPER famous ones it might take more than one watch to recognize it's greatness. ❤️
