there are no actual people who hate it, don't get confused. there were some column writers/reviewers who were paid to kill it, and there are beings who act out a human character, on reddit and such, maybe even irl, who believe that acting like they hate it is 'something that a person does'

because it's a bad, stupid movie

>>213778425 (OP)
Because you posted threads about it starting this week.

wtf okay I always thought this movie was a complete failure

I understand this post completely and entirely.

everyone is using gas powered engines for everything. There’s a problem with that. Who is drilling for oil, and processing it into gas? Gasoline has, at best, a shelf life of about six months, and that’s when it’s been kept in the best of conditions.

>>213779234
Do you say the same thing for Mad Max?

>>213778425 (OP)
where was he getting the cigarettes from?

>starts with kevin costner pissing into a bottle and drinking it
and then it goes downhill from there

>>213779234
They speak of refineries and appear to have a large amount of crude oil in the tanker.

The main problem I had was with the main female protagonist who was a dumb bitch who fucked up my boys boat on multiple occasions. Apart from that I liked it, especially the ending where he couldn't handle being on dry land. It's one of those movies where at the end I fantasised about taking over the protagonist and imagined becoming a dirt trading.

>>213778425 (OP)
I'd say its more famous for flopping on a massive budget than being the worst film. its watchable and has a couple of decent moments, along with some crappy ones. it's aggressively average and not worth hating.

it's pretty cool imo

>>213779404
>Do you say the same thing for Mad Max?
Did you watch those movies? The 2nd one involves a gas refinery.

Waterworld is crap kino.
The Postman is just crap.

Is it?

Its Madmax on water, and its summertime flick kino.

>>213778425 (OP)
It still has a better reputation than Ishtar.

>>213779234
Most likely they were making some kind of bootleg marine diesel and reprocessing what they didn't use every year or three. Fossil fuel systems are very flexible when you're not a basic bitch end user.

>>213778425 (OP)
I love Waterworld. I was a kid when it came out on pay-per-view. My dad was supposed to watch me and my brothers for the day, but he had customers that were supposed to be coming and going all day while my mom was at work. (Drug dealer) So first thing in the morning he went to rent it on PPV but accidentally chose the all day pass(probably already high), which meant you could watch it as many times as you want in a 24 hour span. He forced us to watch it over and over all day because it cost more and he thought he'd get his money's worth that way. Best thing he ever did for us.

>>213779700
Oh yeah.

>>213779471
A large cache of tobacco

>>213779471
I'm guessing those a pretty rare and expensive to get in Waterworld. However people could be growing tobacco, drying it, cutting it, and rolling it something similar to rolling paper. Made from seaweed or some other type of shit. People are very creative.

>>213778425 (OP)
BECAUSE I HEARD IT DIDN'T MAKE LOTS OF MONEY FOR SOMEONE! AND THAT MAKES ME ANGRY! SO I HATE IT! WHY DIDN'T IT MAKE THAT PERSON SO MUCH MONEY?!

>>213779404
Who did this part better?

>>213779234
I've been using two-year-old gasoline that was hiding in my extremely hot/cold garage to run my lawn mower for this entire summer. No issues whatsoever.

>>213778476
This. ((Journalists)) poisoned the well before the film ever came out to the extent that plebs are still convinced it's a flop despite it opening at #1, being top 10 at the box office that year and eventually turning a profit. It didn't make as much as it should have because of its budget problems but the fact that it made its money back and then some despite the insane costs just validates that people liked it.

I'm old enough that my friends and I got loaded and went to see it in theaters and everyone had a blast. It's a fun movie

At least in Waterworld you got to see the girl's bare tight ass.

>>213778425 (OP)
It had a huge budget for its time and there was a lot of hype around it. Then it just underdelivered. But it's not the worst thing ever and who even cares in 2025.

>>213780009

Its just Mad Max with boats and it goes no where.

This. I think it was because Costner decided to become a producer and make movies without the blessing of the big studios. This probably pissed off a lot of big wigs in Hollywood, especially since he's not Jewish.

>>213778476
This is what happened to Treasure Planet

asking this question either means you're both

the only real flaw of this movie is the ugly child

Do NOT look up what she looks like now.

I like The Postman too. It’s a comfy background movie.

>>213780373
What was the point of this scene? Also I felt that the film needed more nude scenes since the human body is functions quite well underwater without clothing.

>>213778425 (OP)
It isn't bad. That's what the media wants you to think. costner was making this movie using a lot own money and (((they))) didn't like that.

>>213778476
I first watched the movie in the early 2010s, had never heard of it so had no idea of the discussion around the film. I thought it was shit. The worldbuilding is ass and it can't decide if it wants to be a campy kids adventure or a grim post-apocalyptic story.

>>213778425 (OP)
I used to think the Razzie awards were funny but now I think they’re those unaccomplished nerds that try to make themselves feel cool by talking shit about successful people.

>>213779471
Similar to where he was getting his fuel from, they probably raided some container ship and there they were

>>213781699

You mean audiences?

it's so we could see her bare ass you dumb fuck

How tf do I legally watch the Ulysses cut? Is pirating really the only way? Waterworld is free on YouTube right now, and it made me mad knowing how much is left out from the regular cut.

>>213779234

did you miss the whole fucking part of the movie where the bad guys live on a oil tanker and they synthesize it into fuel

did you miss that half the ships are sail based

>>213783272
>oil tanker
not a gasoline tanker, and didn't see any refineries anywhere.

>>213783243
Who the fuck wants to see bare female ass?

>>213778425 (OP)
The "graveyard" scene was fucking disgusting and it makes absolutely no sense that people would bury their dead like that in a Sea World.

Waterworld has risen to eternal kino status in my family because, only specifically in Waterworld, Jeanne Tripplehorn is the spitting image of my mom.

>>213783390
She poops from there can you believe it

>>213783501
No

Because it was the last movie that was all practical effects and big sets. Only CGI shit was the monster fish thing that was like 5 seconds of the movie.

HALF AN HOUR

It's like Mad Max 2/Thunderdome but on water, I thought it worked well. As a kid I would have loved it, still decent as an adult.

>>213780964
Wasn't he already his own producer on Dances with the Wolves?

>>213783369
>and didn't see any refineries anywhere.
Shoulda looked closer, because the tanker has its own refinery.

>>213778425 (OP)
I think the issue is it was released at a time when there were a million Mad Max spinoffs being released and people were getting fatigued with the whole concept. This movie was getting tonnes of attention in the press at the time for being over-budget and being a massive vanity project of Kevin Costner's and that definitely influenced peoples' perceptions of the movie.
Not to mention the commercial edit of the film sounds like garbage, I've only ever watched the extended one and it sounds like a lot of the comfy worldbuliding stuff that really helps make the concept interesting was cut.
All that said, it really is a bit of an average film, maybe above average. I don't think it's that great, and they were stupid to throw so much money at it.

>>213783485
Post photo of your mom's bare ass so we can confirm the similarity

>>213783369
Most ships are equipped with engines that burn a form of crude oil called heavy fuel oil

>>213783405
You're an idiot. They turn all organic material and waste into a sludge to recycle everything.
How is that hard to comprehend?

>>213783369
>and didn't see any refineries anywhere
The tanker has a refinery in the director's cut, apparently it was cut in the cinema version

>>213778425 (OP)
I loved it. One of my favorite movies as a kid. I got excited every time it'd come on.

>>213779900
