Is a hot take cool or not?
Great take
That's an unpopular opinion.

@Catogrande holy shit! that is epic bro. 2000AD has got so much potential. My best mate was a huge Strontium Dog collector and I loved ABC Warriors. Kudos to Ms Cato No1!

Waterworld has aged far, far better than Mad Max

Ah! Kevin Costner-the hubris years. See also The Postman.

Unpopular opinion: Seinfeld.
Kramer, Kramer shits me.
George and Newman had riveting machismo on a string but Jerry and Elaine were mostly just irritating.Last word sums up Seinfeld.

Mad Max was out of date when it was released.
Budgets differed a little.

Yeah, seems a weird comparison - a big budget mid 90s movie up against an almost zero budget 70s movie.

One universally lauded, the other panned to death
Waterworld is better regardless of budget

Oh goody. My unpopular opinion: Mad Max is a classic. Waterworld varies between existential profundity, in the moment action scenes (on/off his boat in particular) and Hollywood soap bubbles . Costner is better as the morose silent type.
Reynolds was quoted as saying that "Kevin Costner should only star in movies he directs. That way, he can work with his favorite actor and favorite director".
Josh Wheldon apparently still can't sit through some scenes even though he was flown in to rewrite the worst ones.

Tend to agree. I think if Waterworld had been released without any mention of it's budget it would have been a success.

Oh - and I was going to say I really miss Never Mind the Buzzcocks - but see they've revived it. Sweet.
So you reminded me of this, I've watched 3 episodes now of the reboot. That'll most likely be all I watch.
It's naff.
Just them laughing with each other about how whacky they are.

Damn - I've downloaded the whole lot, old and new. Haven't given it a go yet.
It sounds like the "whacky" team-up of Russell Brand and Noel Fielding on the Big-Fat-Quiz-of-the-Year - so fucking annoying. Just "look at me, look at me, look how craaazy I am!" -
Daniel Day Lewis isn't half the actor he's made out to be.

Whilst I think “method” acting is an absolutely colossal load of wank this take is fucken bullshit. He is incredible.
