I don't know about that... it's not like you can just wake up and decide, "Alright, I'm gonna make a masterpiece today!"😁
Lately, though, the visuals have been stunning, even if the stories were pretty mediocre (think *The Revenant* or *Lone Survivor*). But *Amelia*? That one actually holds its own... and it does it beautifully.
Man, I finally sat down and watched it today 😳 and it’s actually great... weird, offbeat, and just fun. Honestly, those Frenchmen have been killing it with their cinematography lately; their films look way more striking than most Hollywood stuff.
That scene with the forcefields while Duel of the Fates plays in the background is killer, but honestly, who’s actually going to enjoy it given how much the rest of the movie falls apart...
Anyway, it just hit me—we haven't even mentioned Panic Room in the best cinematography category.
Oh yeah, that whole "best lesbian scene" category... 👍 😁
Just thought of another top-tier villain—Max von Sydow in Minority Report. He was incredible... but then you've got Pantoliano... "My mother calls me Teddy, my name is John Edward Gammel!"

Look, I always thought action scenes weren't supposed to be funny. 🙂 Seriously, when I watched that, half the theater was staring in stunned silence while the other half was losing it laughing.
But that scene right before it, where the lights go out and the lightsaber duel starts... that's Dobro.
BTW slyrider16, solid pick... but if we're talking about the ultimate bad guy, I'd probably go with Guy Pearce himself... 😉
