Because anecdotes are fun: two of my coworkers had seen it today. One loved it, and the other hated it for the same reasons as me. Really does seem like it will be divisive.
Actually that's exactly what I've been called out for. I've yet to insult one single person on this forum over Godzilla and yet people keep taking it personal. And only people that love the movie. Gee, what a coincidence. Not my fault if they don't get stuff like my sig are meant to be over the top and not serious.
Well duh. And what exactly about my response to you sounded like I was being serious or insulting you? I would think to someone like you it would be pretty obvious what tone I was striking.
Only cause you're making it condescending. It's clear to most I'm having fun, except those of you that love the movie and can't stand the fact that someone doesn't. Or perhaps my over the top opening phrase in that post of "ooh child" wasn't enough of a hint for you I wasn't being serious...
I haven't made it even remotely personal with anyone when trashing the film. Disliking a movie someone else doesn't and trashing it doesn't equal insulting other people. Unless you insult other people. So far that's on you with the namecalling. But whatevs.
If you need examples, if I were insulting other people I would be telling them they're idiots if they like it or something in that vein.
Stop taking it personal. It's a movie I didn't like and am now having fun trashing it. Do you take it personal when people have fun praising a movie they love? No, so don't worry about it. Like, take a chill pill man.
