...but oh well.

I actually liked Showgirls and disliked Pulp Fiction.

In the hatred category, The Last Jedi. As for the Rise of Skywalker, sure, I didn't like it. But after Rian Johnsons, if you can even call it a movie, that was probably the best they could do to salvage things. Should have done the Dallas swerve and Luke just wakes up from a bad dream and restart the saga.

Lord of the Rings trilogy was great, the Hobbit, they should have just paid Peter Jackson what he wanted.
