What did the fans think of ESB vs ANH? Kind of hard to gauge without the internet.

 

True, critics are divided among many classic genre films but what's usually a fanboy favorite in the past stayed the franchise favorite.

 

When  films are this good it's a rather pointless debate which is the best since its like choosing between The Godfather 1 and 2, LOTR 1, 2 and 3, or Strawberry and Blueberry Pop Tarts...they're ALL good.  ;)

Choosing between the 3 LotR movies isn't hard in the slightest

There is some really good stuff in Spiderman 3 guys, Sam's the man.

I rank the Bonds as:

 

1) Connery

2) Moore

 

 

 

 

 

3) Craig

 

 

 

 

 

4) The rest

 

Bronson was decent in Goldeneye but everything else he was in bordered on parody. 

 

You root for him because he's supposed to be Bond but he never actually wins you over.

The fanbase is pretty divided. Alot of people would say Towers or King and others like myself would say Fellowship.

There is some romance dialogue in Casino Royale that is every bit as cringeworthy as George Lucas' romance dialogue in the Star Wars prequels. 

 

<insert proverbial gif of Darth Vader yelling "NOOOOOOOO" here>

 

That's about as hyperbolic as a statement can get IMO.

The fanbase can be divided all they want. Fellowship is a masterpiece.

Fight Club was 99, the internet era was still kinda in its infancy.  With sites like rottentomatoes a mouse click away that collectd all the reviews, I think it makes reassessing a film almost impossible because theres an obsession over the %.

 

Eh, it's also true that not enough time has passed for internet era films. Also what makes it difficult to reasses a film is RT doesn't provide a chart to see how the percentage changes over time and I don't think it revisits films if a new review comes up.

No sir. Casino Royale goes from a sarcastic Bond to this: "You've stripped away my armor. Whatever is left of me is yours." Gag...gag, gag, gag.
