    I saw both Oppenheimer and Barbie a while back. Both films were unique and honestly seemed amazing. Oppenheimer was great for history nerds like myself. It respected the heavy source material and honestly I loved it. My only complaint is that I felt it could have been 15 or 20 minutes shorter.
    Barbie was also amazing. It was beautiful and hilarious. I watched it in a packed theatre and every joke landed. It was also an experience akin to Spiderman No Way Home. During Ken's final monologue and his musical number guys there with their gfs started chanting "He's literally me" and "I'm just ken". Honestly the movie said so much yet simply enough to still be seen as a comedy. I loved it.
    But that's just it. Most cinema attendees only see 2 or 3 films a year. For most folk those 3 films were Guardians of the Galaxy, Barbie and Oppenheimer.

    It's a shame Transformers isnt doing well, cause Bumblebee finally brought the series back into a good direction again. One where the Transformers are the main focus, getting more screentime and are given actual character development.
    Alot of people underestimate the amount of rich and compelling stories you can tell with Transformers. It's just that the movies rarely dig beyond the surface.
    The next movie is a prequel set on Cybertron, explaining the events leading to the war and they cannot play it safe with that storyline.
    Because that storyline is FILLED with themes of systematic oppression, corruption and often times genuine horror and brutality.

    God I hope the new Dungeons and Dragons movie did well. I completely wrote it the fuck off when I saw the trailer and I'm willing to bet a ton of people did the same thing, but it turned out to be not only what a DnD movie should be in regards to building its world and tone in the same way that most friends around the table do; but turned out to be a shockingly well made movie as well. Great acting. Inventive scenes. Fun dialogue with likable characters. An actual character arc. Excellent action that isn't cutting the camera every picosecond. Way more practical effects than I anticipated, too. When the paladin sliced his attacker's neck and some absolute chad of a stunt man took an actual fall down the rocks, it felt like I was watching an actual movie again.

    I think if it wasn't for Transfomers 5 and the Bumblebee movie bombing at the box office I think ROTB would have been directed by Bay or the studio would have let Steven caple Jr take more risks...I and one of the few people that actually like the direction that the Transformers franchise is going in away from the last 2 Michael Bay Transformers movies, but I think if they still make that Transformers GI Joe crossover it's going to bomb harder then Oppenheimer's actral bomb because not even transformers fan's like myself want to see Gi joe with Transformers

    So glad you made this video. These were EXACTLY my thoughts. Every single movie with a HUGE budget and mediocre reviews has performed badly because no one cares to see it. Every movie with a lower budget and amazing reviews performs much better. There are obvious exceptions of course, like Avatar 2 somehow making all that money, but it seems like movie companies are going to need to try harder and make better films/decrease their budgets.
    For example, Elemental had the whopping $200million budget, whereas SPIDERVERSE had a $100 million budget, Puss in Boots had a $90 million budget, The Bad Guys had a $80 million budget, so it's way easier for them to be successful. The Bad Guys only made $250 million but was still a success.
    These studios keep putting out these mediocre movies with $250 million plus budgets that barely break even, how? Make the movies better

      I encourage you to keep your head up. Barbie is a good movie. Definitely heavy handed on their message but I believe that’s the point. If Greta Gerwig and company view patriarchy as a heavy handed, in-your-face issue then why not make an equally heavy handed, in-your-face film? I did not expect the film to go as far as it did with it’s message but the story did end in a satisfying way for me. Barbie is a very well made and intentionally crafted film in my opinion and I don’t see it’s message as a reason to bash the film and all of it’s other amazing qualities. You’ll enjoy Barbie when you finally do get to see it. Personally though I liked Oppenheimer more
