Pixels (2015) trailer

People compare things when they are similar.

I'm gonna stick with the Futurama episode because it was good.
 
^Exactly. It's not a matter of there not being room for multiple interpretations, it's a matter of, in some peoples' opinions, one being a preferred interpretation.
 
And I've not liked anything Sandler has done for the better part of a decade and found him tolerable in this. This was "don't give a damn, phone-it-in Sandler," usual tropes and notes in this movie he hits like in most of his movies (loser who's told he's worthless, accomplishes more than he thought possible. Lands the hot-woman at the end," but no Sandlerisms in this to get annoyed with. (Goofy voice, bathroom humor, low-brow humor in general.)
Maybe not those, but numerous reviewers have indeed been annoyed by the sexism that's especially blatant even by Hollywood action movie standards.
 
Yeah the sexism in the movie was strong. (Guy literally wins a silent, hot, girlfriend as a prize.)
