Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.
Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.
Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Going to STRONGLY disagree with Now You See Me unless you have a room temperature IQ. It's a heist movie for idiots.
I only remember it as fun. I don't remember the quality, the plot, the characters, the setting, or the execution. I think I was trying to get into someone else's pants. Maybe that's the fun I remember.
I've also never felt a need for a rewatch or sequels.
Ok, noted. No to Now You See Me.
I vouch for skipping mission impossible 2. The entire rest of the series basically retcons it anyway.
