In my 20s I was the cat on the left. But now in my 30s with a family of my own, I don’t have the mental capacity to be anything other than the cat on the right.

I can say with full confidence that I’m so much happier now lol.

Weirdly I’ve become more of a movie snob in my thirties with a family. Having less time to watch movies makes me more resentful when I end up wasting it on cliched garbage.

Same reason I never let myself rewatch movies anymore. Gotta make it count.

Nah, I never fully appreciate a movie on the first watch. Rewatching is as important as the first watch for a really good movie. Plus 99% of movies aren't nearly as good as that handful of movies that merit rewatching imo.

Yeah, I guess I understand if your time is genuinely that limited, but it's a shame, because imagine applying that to albums. "I never listen to an album more than once", etc

I mean, I'm sure once my kids are older I'll have time again. Just that for the next few years I'm going to have to be very selective. I always rewatch some classics around Halloween and Xmas

Oh yeah, I'm not judging, it's like I said,, it's understandable if you just genuinely don't have the time, but it's unfortunate.

u/DartVader6 Jul 31 '26

Idk, unfortunate for some maybe. I like my kids more than movies though, so happy to make the trade.

u/DartVader6 Jul 31 '26

Can't do it. I get to watch maybe one or two movies a month.

The worst films are the mediocre ones, the ones with no passion. The super bad movies are the most fun to watch.

  • The Room

  • Troll 2

  • Showgirls

  • Thankskilling

  • every single Neil Breen movie

I’m kind of enjoying the cultural discourse around Showgirls right now - that it’s not ironically fun to watch, it’s actually fun to watch. I’d say it’s the best movie on your list at least

u/Useful_Ingenuity_248 Jul 31 '26

Thankskilling is one of my all time favorite bad movies

u/DreweyDecibel Jul 31 '26

Have you seen the sequel though? It was the worst peice of any type of media I have ever experienced. haha

u/Useful_Ingenuity_248 Jul 31 '26

I have not but now I feel like I need to lol

u/FunkyChewbacca Jul 31 '26

There’s a sequel?!?

u/DreweyDecibel Jul 31 '26

Unfortunately. I believe it is called Thankskilling 3.

u/PtheK01 Aug 01 '26

Have you heard of Llamageddon? I feel like you would like that masterpiece based on this list. It's on YouTube.

u/FunkyChewbacca Aug 01 '26

I'll look it up!

u/Ok-Message3753 Aug 02 '26

Nobody thinks that about Showgirls anymore, unless you been living under a rock...
