I just saw Infinity War and I'm not okay.

I haven't seen Infinity War but I read every single spoiler! Because that's the kind of person I am!

SPOILER:

I'm not going to spoil it for you, sorry. I only spoil things for myself.

Ok so I watched The Greatest Showman the other day and I think it was pretty good and I like a lot of the songs! but honestly it wasn't as good as I had expected it to be everyone really talked it up.
Also is it really a musical? there were only like 5 or 6 songs it seemed more like a Disney movie where they just have a random song here and there 1 reason I don't like it as much is after I watched it I looked up the real P.T. Barnum and he wasn't a great guy the movie made him seem like a hero but in real life he was anything but.
What do you guys think?

SERIOUSLY?!?!?!?!?! Okay, we need to have a chat! This movie is not historically accurate by any means, but the story that it tells is really good. It has sound morals, a well thought out storyline, and great songs. Yes, I know, I am usually the one to rant about historical accuracy, but there are exceptions to most things, and I believe this is one.

And so, "having said my say and talked my talk," as Susan Baker says, I shall take my leave.

I agree. I had heard so many good things about it. It definitely wasn't a bad movie. Hugh Jackson and the cast did amazing. It was just lacking in almost every scene without a musical number. The music was fantastic however.

I mean I liked it. It was really charming but it just fell short of expectation. (Except for the music which, again, is phenomenal)

I liked it a lot better than the original. Which is weird, since Pixar is not... Known for making great sequels. ;)

Pixar is good at sequels, but Cars 2 was a fluke.

I actually have never seen Cars 2, but I thought Pixar did a great job with Incredibles 2... They also did a good job with Finding Dory

Incredibles 2 was FRIKIN AMAZING! The movie everyone has been waiting for over 14 years. Idk, can't decide which one as better. Just quick spoiler:
Jack Jack and the Racoon fight was FRIKIN ADORABLE AND HILLARIOUS!
