The best actual script he was handed was either Iron Giant or Saving Private Ryan. He has some perspective on what's actually good. He just chooses scripts where directors replace dialog with loud noises.

Maybe he has read a lot of script that were way better, but there wasn't as much money in them so he didn't do em?

I'll probably cry pretty hard if I'm forced at gunpoint to watch the full movie

It probably seems really good when the last few scripts he read just had him saying "I am Groot" for 90 minutes.

To be fair, he recorded the voice in 15 different languages for the international versions.

He said best in decades, but i read better then anything since Tokyo Drift. I so much hope I'll agree with him.

Is he confirming he hasn't read anything in decades?

It's an incredible script! Itll pay for his new kitchen renovation. It'll buy him some new sports cars. It'll let him buy a boat. Fantastic script!

Don't forget to mention that they went to space in a car with rockets strapped to it while wearing old scuba suits.
