It's mostly Christopher Nolan at fault here
Since you don't rate Respect by Aretha Franklin you have lost any little credibility or authority you may have had to comment on any form of popular art
I mean ignoring his ridiculous comment that the Usual Supsects is "literally the shittest thing ever". This is someone who has not seen the following films (some of them classics):

Let's just imagine I turned this around with a load of foreign-language classics that colthe3rd probably hasn't seen many of, rather than having to laboriously type out each one
The Revenant (The Irrelevant) - Dull and pointless. Stopped after 20 minutes. Tried again and eventually gave up on third attempt. I'm usually easy going but found it dreadful and sooooo boring. Made 'The Grey' look like Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

I quite enjoy watching Usual Suspects, but I do find myself wondering if I think it's great or not. I just don't think it holds together after the twist. What we saw mostly didn't happen, as I understand it. Which makes much of the film pointless. Happy to be proven wrong, I just don't see how it works.

Exactly! your inability to recall such a classic song renders any other opinion you have on popular culture redundant.
Some crap I saw on a plane where Tom Cruise has to keep committing suicide to go back in time to thwart Julia Roberts in her quest to bonk her way across the globe.
I will admit I might have fallen asleep during one movie and woken up during the second one.

The 'twist' of The Usual Suspects is probably the nadir of popular culture
seriously?! you're suggesting that the twist in a pretty insignificant film co staring Kevin Spacey called the usual suspects is the lowest point in popular culture?!
As I biker I have to add Easy Rider although it is iconic and watched it a few times.
Are you a biker, or do you ride a motorbike TT?
Less biker these days TBF but comfortable in the the biker world.
You wont be if you tell them your Opinion on Easy Rider...
I am happy to argue my corner at any biker bash. I have done and most have agreed with me particularly about the stupid acid trip scene. I would still watch it again though.
Girl on a motorbike is also iconic but it was a tedious film.
Maybe it is the similarity of the endings doesn't help, aren't bikers allowed to live long and fulfilling lives like in Wild Hogs? ;-)

You got me thinking @Algarveaddick so I have started a poll on a facebook page to get feedback from other motorcyclists, not sure how many are bikers. I will report back.

Pulp fiction not worthy of all the hype
Honestly have no idea why my brother loves it so much.
I felt weird that I was the only one on planet earth that thought it was garbage.
Someone said pulp fiction.
I can see why you say that. That could be argued.
The acting is just too dam good to hate it though.
And you'd not heard "what's going on?" either!

Pretentious, smug, self-serving, affected jank. How it beat Whiplash - a $3.3m budget and 20 day shoot - to the Oscar, I'll never know.
Has anyone else on here seen Easy Rider?
