The movie actually caught me off guard in the best way possible... 👍

cosmiclynx57, you're just talking nonsense.

Honestly, saying a 7 is too high for a movie you didn't vibe with? Man, that's a bold take! If you’re tossing out a 7 just because it wasn't your cup of tea, then what on earth are you actually giving the stuff you genuinely love? Like, if a flick actually hits the spot for you, are we talking a solid 12/10? And don't even get me started on your absolute masterpieces—are those going up to a 15/10 or what? 🤷😂🙂
Exactly. That's what I'm talking about!
Honestly, he should just stick to a simple 1 to 5 star rating system, don't you think? Because right now, his scores—like giving a 6, then a 5, then a 4, 3, 2, or 1—are basically useless when he ends up handing a 7 to some movie he didn't even actually like! It makes zero sense, right?
Nicholas Turner said:I had to pull an example here. Look, Snickers have been around for ages—they're classics—but there's zero investment in building a powerhouse brand around them; people just assume success happens by accident. It’s the same deal with Hershey's making their version of "nugat desserts"—which, let's be honest, is such a tacky name—and they underprice the Hershey's Snickers significantly. The problem? Hardly anyone even knows about those Hershey's knockoffs, not even here in the States.
When our managers try to justify this logic, it feels like a slap in the face. They basically tell us, "Just pay a premium for Unknown brands here in the US to help cover the losses we're taking abroad." Why? Because those competitors use low prices to wedge themselves into international markets. They win through massive ad spends and aggressive campaigns instead.
As Unknown mentioned, you can literally walk outside, buy our own stuff, and find it cheaper elsewhere. It’s both absurd and honestly quite pathetic.

So, on a crosser like that, it just isn't possible... nothing like that...
