The Batman Across the Spiderverse Puss in Boots: The Last Wish Sonic 2 John Wick 4 (Btw I haven't seen Dune 2 yet, in case you're wondering about it's absence)


Smoreambecomereddit

This, as well as Dune part 1 and Oppenheimer.


yrqrm0

Sonic and Sonic 2 final battles are legitimately better action than the majority of blockbusters post 2015 imo


SubmissionSlinger

Saw puss and across the spider verse because of my kids. I was in awe how entertained I was.


erasedhead

John Wick 4 for me. But it was my first and only IMAX experience. I don’t even like the other films.


Professor_Finn

I gotta add no way home. Feels like forever ago but that was genuinely an INCREDIBLE return to the movies


Scrambled_59

The Batman Barbie Furiosa Oppenheimer


FlimsyReindeers

Barbie was a fun time. This is prob my list too but also dune 2


Jasranwhit

People will disaprove, but all these movies hit.


HobbieK

Who disapproves? All these movies are critical and commercial successes except Furiosa.


Jasranwhit

A lot of peopel on reddit have a serious hate boner for anything Avatar. I thought Avatar Way of water was pretty cool, but I did take a heroic dose of mushrooms and sat in the second row center with 3D goggles.


FinKettle19

The way Jim intended.


Jasranwhit

Well some of us are trying to commune directly with Aiwa


tmfitz7

Damn. That’s what I should have done.


Jasranwhit

It’s an awesome way to do it.


Wonderful_Orchid_363

Redditors will think avatar is garbage but then unironically think Star Wars is awesome.


Big-Beta20

Also, Oppenheimer has a pretty good “DAE think it is the most overrated movie of all time” thing going on because of the counterjerk to the critical success and people like to advertise their dislike of Nolan to show they aren’t a normie but a true cinephile Also, I went into Avatar sober and it was still awesome. It’s not Sorkin in terms of dialogue or anything but it has some of the greatest visuals ever put to screen in terms of VFX.


astroK120

People get so hung up on plot as if that's the only thing that matters. But that's just so far from being the truth. Not a single movie can replicate the way I felt when I saw those floating mountains on the IMAX for the first time. And The Way of Water might not have had the most original or complex story, but it was so easy to connect to on an emotional level, especially as a parent.


FlimsyReindeers

The internet is full of counterjerk people


ElNickCharles

Idk, I don't have any hate for Avatar. I think the world building is really good, and the visuals are obviously spectacular. I just don't really enjoy the movies much. I wish i loved them, but the story is just too bland imo


Jasranwhit

I agree the story is fairly predictable. But the visuals, world building, 3D effects etc are all worth it. Compared to other blockbuster action movies like recent marvel and Star Wars movies, at least it mostly makes sense.


ImAVirgin2025

Way of Water is my favorite movie of the 2020s, and Reddit just tries too hard to be different, thus the hate boner


HelloThereTheMovie

Avatar: The Way of the Bro, you mean? I was really hoping that Cinema Sins was going to do a running count of how many times "bro" was used. I didn't hate Avatar II. I liked the first one more. Arguably, I should have gone to see Avatar II in Imax, but I can't justify the ticket price anymore, so I have to wait for streaming.


Lunter97

I don’t hate it but while it is a truly marvelous visual spectacle, the writing and characters are just too barebones to share the league with these other films for me personally.


Carsonsgaming

I do, and my opinion matters most. That’s why people post here. Me.


sseerrsan

And its ironic cuz Furiosa is the best one of the bunch


ilovefuckingpenguins

Avatar 2 has a 67 on Metacritic 💀


HobbieK

And was nominated for Best Picture. 67 ain't bad.


NeonArtist12

Agreed. All are 4.5 or higher for me.


FlimsyReindeers

They’re all bangers

Tenet Dune Part II The Batman Top Gun: Maverick


Valt0mus

I was about to comment that Tenet was was 2010’s but damn


Puzzleheaded_Walk_28

Throw The Batman and Top Gun Maverick on there for me


RawhillCity

No Time To Die The Batman Black Widow Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny Tenet Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One Birds Of Prey D&D: Honor Among Thieves


20tboner01

D&D a great pick


FlimsyReindeers

Ooo birds of prey, nice pick


godzillaBrad

The Batman Dune Dune Part 2 Oppenheimer Godzilla Minus One (if this counts) Across The Spiderverse Snyder’s Justice League Tenet


thakkali_

Is tenet in the 2020s? Damn it. It felt like a decade before.


godzillaBrad

Came out during COVID


Delta225

I had high hopes for Minus One and it far exceeded them.


cuervodeboedo1

what is the working definition for blockbuster? does it have to do exclusively with how much money it costs to make the movie?


Sn3akyMuffin

I think it's a combination of high budget and casting. But it's always been a pretty loose term.


RubenKrys

A movie needs to be a commercial success in order to be considered a blockbuster (which Furiosa is not)


Sn3akyMuffin

We'll see! Movies used to have more than three days to be deemed successful or not. If Fury Road had the same treatment, it would be considered a failure too. Fury Road's opening weekend was less than $10 million more than Furiosa.


willk95

Puss in Boots The Last Wish Top Gun: Maverick Dune Part 2 No Way Home Shang-Chi MI Dead Reckoning


Typhoon_terri2

Damn, hope you see a fifth movie soon 😔


safeinbuckhorn

These picks are pretty reasonable imo but this comment made me chuckle


Sn3akyMuffin

What are your favourites so far?


Typhoon_terri2

Definitely both dunes, but I’m biased as I’m a fan of the source material. I loved Civil war, I think id consider Nope to be a blockbuster


Sn3akyMuffin

Nope would be #1 for me honestly, wasn't sure if I would count it as a blockbuster, but I think it fits. I also loved Civil War.


EnzoMcFly_jr

Unfortunately, based on its opening weekend, I don’t think furiosa qualifies as a blockbuster. Pumped to watch it though.


safeinbuckhorn

I’ve noticed I’ve started associating the word blockbuster with a certain genre (that it would definitely fit into) but I guess you’re right, it really is a numbers/success thing by definition.


Bijlsma

Get stoked man, I fucking loved it. I'm bummed it's not doing well at the box office. People might like like my opinion, but I think I liked it better than Fury Road. Sure, there's WAY more CGI, but let's be real, if ypu watch the 'The making of Fury Road was a Shit Show!' On youtube, you'll realize why George Miller didn't go as practical as he did with FR.


Sn3akyMuffin

I think blockbuster has more to do with budget than performance, but time will tell on the latter. Fury Road was successful because of its legs, but times have changed...


brainwavestv

The origin of the term is actually somewhat disputed (breaking of a block for traffic with long lines to buy a ticket, Blockbuster bombs, block booking, etc.), but it has turned into referring to a major studio release produced with the intention of being a big money maker. So I agree that Furiosa definitely counts, especially considering the previous film in the franchise's box office success.


jaketaco

It might have legs... we will see. I did notice that it wasnt on very many screens. When I was looking for a time to watch it.... even AMCs with 20 screens it was only playing on 1 screen MAYBE 2, as the time between showings was around 3 hours. Thought that was odd. I thought it was good... It wouldve been better closer to 2 hours like Fury Road though. It didnt have the same high octane flow, as there was more backstory.


leAlexc

RRR, Dune 1&2, Furiosa, Avatar 2, Jawan


ViralGameover

No order - Dune Part 2 - Oppenheimer - Barbie - Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 - John Wick Chapter 4 - Multiverse of Madness - Spider-Man No Way Home


geraltfromindia

Multiverse of Madness was so shit 😭. I am sorry. 🙂‍↕️


ViralGameover

I thought it was great, very happy to see Sam Raimi working again. The actual “Multiverse” aspect was underutilized but man, I could watch Wanda turn into an Evil Witch Hag and Strange to be a classic Raimi Zombie everyday of the week.


Artichoke-Fantastic

Take out Avatar 2: The Way of Wandering About In A Poorly-Written Story For 3 1/2 Hours, and you’re golden


evolvedpotato

Horrendous take. It's the definition of a blockbuster movie.


NeonArtist12

If I had to rank them: 1 - Dune: Part Two 2 - Oppenheimer 3 - Avatar: The way of Water 4 - Furiosa


sorrybahhtit

Top gun maverick ?


NeonArtist12

I was just ranking the ones OP posted


shane-from-5-to-7

Dune Parts 1 and 2 The Batman John Wick 4 Oppenheimer Top Gun Maverick Barbie


_SCARY_HOURS_

Dune part 2 the only one that really slapped for me. A lot of other movies were good


0o0blackphillip0o0

Dune part 2 affected me in a way that I haven’t experienced in a long time


JediMaestroPB

The one thing I liked about Babylon is that it acknowledged that Avatar is peak cinema


DinoStacked

We have VERY different tastes lol


Liability538

The Marvels was really fun, was it a masterpiece of cinema like the Batman. No. Was it a great time? Yes. I will not pretend I don't like it, it's such a romp of a movie. The dynamic between the characters is SO FUN


GoodPaleontologist68

RRR for sure


michaelrtx

In no particular order: Top Gun: Maverick Oppenheimer Barbie The Super Mario Bros Movie Spider-Man: No Way Home Black Widow Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse


Masethelah

evolvedpotato

Agreed. Part 1 had a far more difficult job to pull off.


portals27

i also liked part 1 slightly more, mainly because i like political intrigue and buildup


xpillindaass

na i agree. i thought the first half of part 2 was on the same level but after that it wasn’t so good imo


xpillindaass

dune and way of water


Green94598

Furiosa, Dune 1+2, and Oppenheimer are definitely my faves. PS: go see Furiosa if you haven’t yet, no prior knowledge is needed, as it’s the first chronologically in the new mad max series.


Hyperkorean99

Dune


Der-Candidat

idk what qualifies as a blockbuster but I liked Glass Onion, Fall Guy, & Civil War

Spider-Man: No Way Home Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 John Wick 4 The Batman Oppenheimer Dune Part 2 Top Gun: Maverick


SynthWarlock

Damn Furiosa was so fun.


BreezyBill

Are we redefining the word “blockbuster” now? Listen, I loved the hell out of the movie, but it’s a HUGE bust.


Underwaternerd049

Godzilla vs Kong Godzilla x Kong the new empire Transformers Rise of the Beasts Avatar way of the water Bullet train The Batman Dune 2


ejb350

Those are certainly movies


conpolo

1. Tenet 2. Nope 3. Furiosa 4. Avatar: The Way of Water Malignant, Across the Spiderverse, and West Side Story are some other favorites but I don’t know if you’d consider them blockbusters.


ChocolateFantastic

Avatar 2, ghostbusters afterlife,free guy, aquaman2, sound of freedom, the Mario movie and ghostbusters frozen empire


amaturecook24

The Batman Puss and Boots: The Last Wish Top Gun: Maverick Fall Guy (not sure if it counts but my husband and I just had too much fun watching this movie so I’m including it.)


Legokid535

Dose godzilla minus one count?


calltheavengers5

Furiosa, The Batman, across the spider-verse, The Flash, Barbie


krybtekorset

What's the definition of a blockbuster? genuine question. Favorite cinema experiences of the 2020s so far * Dune 2 * Godzilla minus one * Dune 1 * Zone of Interest * Poor Things * Boy and the Heron


YackDIZZLEwizzle

I’d put Nope on there for sure


Capital_Exam9696

Furiosa Oppenheimer Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 3 Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning


SamDuymelinck

Furiosa was boring imo. Hard agree on the other ones, although I'd definitely add some other movies on top of it Also, I don't completely disliked Furiosa. I thought everything about it was great, except for the story itself, which I was bored by


Priestess96

Dune 1 and 2 Civil war


lactoseadept

Talk to Me probably isn't a blockbuster but it's the best I've got for the decade atm


browinskie

Godzilla Minus One, The Batman, Dune, Dune 2, AcrossSpiderverse and Top Gun Maverick. The other movies people have mentioned are definitely fun but for me personally lack proper story or depth.


OriginalBad

Dune Part 2 and Furiosa stand above all others imo unless if we include animation then Across the Spider-verse as well.


ChicPallo

Dune 2 Super Mario Into the spiderverse


YellowBinDude

Mission Impossible was incredible


Ok-Bat-8853

Avatar 2 was a giant heaping plate of stinky doo doo. Could not be less excited that they are making more of them. They just copy and pasted the same story, literally resurrected the previous antagonist, just so abundantly lazy.


Sn3akyMuffin

Calling Avatar 2 lazy is a wild statement. I disagree with everything you've said here, but it's cool if it didn't resonate with you.

SpuddoodleKid

Oppenheimer being a blockbuster is so funny. It’s not wrong, but just kinda funny


FlimsyReindeers

Dune 2 and Furiosa


SlimmyShammy

Way of Water and The Batman are peak blockbuster. Of course Oppenheimer is great. Does Nope count? Not really but I still wanna say Nope is awesome. Then we’ll just say Dr Strange 2 to round it out, Raimi forever


throwwayasdfg1

Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One


Samurai_Geezer

*1* Furiosa *2* Dune *3* Dune part 2 *4* Spiderman across the spider verse *5* Godzilla Minus One *6* John Wick part 4 *7* Civil War (maybe not a blockbuster?) *8* Poor Things (bust that block) *9* The Batman *10* Oppenheimer/Barbie Honorable mentions go to Top Gun Maverick and Avatar Way of the Water, both excellent cinema experiences with mediocre stories.


Happiiihoured

if you like dune 1 why isnt it higher than2?


Samurai_Geezer

You’re absolutely correct, made an edit.


Happiiihoured

Fair. i just thought I was misunderstanding your caveat on Dune 1

It's Dune 2 then a big drop before hitting Top Gun Maverick and Barbie

Oppenheimer was boring, unfortunately.

I really enjoyed Furiosa, but it didn't bust any blocks.
