1. You Talked More About High Heels Than Dinosaurs
Yes, Jurassic World successfully reinvigorated a long-dormant franchise and made a jaw-dropping $1.669 billion worldwide, but much of the post-release dialogue wasn't so much about the awesome T-Rex fights or the new Indominus Rex, but rather the admittedly peculiar choice of footwear worn by Bryce Dallas Howard's Claire character throughout the movie. She wears high heels for the entire duration of the film, even when fleeing from a T-Rex, to the point that it was widely-parodied online and even by the movie's cast. There's no point denying it was a dumb scene in the movie, but in some quarters the obsession with it overtook actual discussion of the film, at which point we as film fans really need to step back and ask ourselves, "Is it really that important? Can't we discuss the film's other merits/demerits?" Yes, you say? No, you say? Oh well, then. Which movies most made your brain cells commit suicide this past year? Shout them out in the comments!
Stay at home dad who spends as much time teaching his kids the merits of Martin Scorsese as possible (against the missus' wishes).
