and movies are made for people to like them. the more people like a movie the better it is because the point of a movie is to have people like it and make money. So one movie being more successful money wise and popularity wise is a better movie. Wether you or your neighbor like the movie or not.

More people liking one movie is not an opinion, it's a fact based on opinions. Me saying more people like X movie is not my opinion.


e/ and yes, the proof. ty

Crosby isn't the best player in hockey.

Arguable.


I get what youre saying. But having an argument with someone over which movie they thought was better is stupid. It doesnt matter what the rest of the world thinks when youre having an arguement with just 1 person.

Lets say I preferred Troy but you preferred Gladiator.. .that should be the end of it lol. Who cares what everyone on jsp thinks.

For sure if you say you liked a movie better than the one I like I can't argue with you on that.

Anyways Meatstick was just looking for a popularity vote

I get what PCG and Galch are saying but I'm with DD on this one.

Obviously there's no 100% correct way to decide which movie is better (which one wins more awards or makes more money isn't always accurate so you can't use hard stats).

But there are several things you look at like acting, writing, plot, story, etc. to decide how good a movie is. When you look at it this way, surely Gladiator is the better movie.

It's like looking at two hockey players who have the same number of points. Statistically they are the same but when you watch them and know what makes one "better", you can easily decide.


You also have to differentiate between "like" and "good". For example, I really like some songs that are bad songs; just 'cause I like them it doesn't make them good



Why are you bringing facts into a thread about opinions?

I'm sure we can think of many movies that were supposed to be amazing because pf all the production costs and advertising, but fell short. Just because they fetch big returns at the box office just means that they advertised/hyped it up properly and have big time actors.

Gladiator and it's not even close

But brave heart is better than gladiator

Gladiator... come on lol

Troy is pretty much Brad Pitt playing the pretty boy, being arrogant and showing some emotion once he killed Hector(When his father wanted to get his son's body)


Gladiator was solid through and through. 2000 wasn't that much of a great year for movies but still, great dicrector/solid cast(Crowe/Phoenix.. damn)

also troy... Sean Bean is in the movie and he didn't die, therefore, bleh

somebody gets it.

Neither
