For me the shape of water was the worst film I’ve ever seen because the whole story was just so weird and ridiculous… An alien and a woman getting together.

The worst part about it is that critics at the time were praising the film…

    Ghost in the Shell live action, or any other “Americans are too uncultured to watch foreign cinema, so we need to dumb it down with a remake (starring only white people)” movie.

    I can understand people not wanting to read subtitles (though I’ll personally take subs any day over a bad dub) but remakes of foreign movies just make no sense to me.

      The only remake of a foreign classic that I like is Sweet Charity. Bob Fosse took a serious drama by Fellini and turned it into an absurd musical comedy. WTF, but… it’s GREAT!
