Better be. If he was talking about me he's in trouble.

thats not true either hollywood makes plent of good movies....like..eddie murphy as a fat lady.....that kid movie that looks like the 30th harry potter ripoff.....there are all those horror movies that come out every week..each one better than the last

No, because they cater to the lowest common denominator... which, unfortunately, are people who want their cinematic adventures simplistic.

Ok, I KNOW you didn't just call me the lowest common denominator.

speaking of movies...i have net flix so I've been watching all these "classics" that i never saw. Once upon a time in the west is an awesome movie for anyone who can stand a western. its super long but you watch it and realize how many poeple have ripped it off since. anyway...hows it going

I barely passed my french last year lucky i got a C. readin subtitles isnt my thing at all

Id agree with AP as right now i cant think of a recent good movie to defend hollywood. Especialy Games to movies the transistions always horible and doesnt keep to the stoy

Edit how an eitire page can apear between preview and poting baffles me. The only good horror movie lately was Saw3

OK. I'll admit it. I would be too, if I could just pull myself away from the craptastic stuff that Hollywood keeps putting out

I recently got NetFlix, I've been watching a lot of 70s films lately, like Marathon Man, All the President's Men, Three Days of the Condor, Network, etc. It's been nice watching films that actually meant something.

I'll happily dwell in crap with you, Mute.


Er.....

I don't mind subtitles if it's a good movie.

Honestly I dont really watch a lot of movies. I'm more of a t.v. or books kind of girl.

I remember watching Gerard Depardieu in Cyrano de Bergerac (if all you know about him are his lame-ass Hollywood films like Green Card or the one he did with Whoopi, you'd be in for a treat) in French on a Spanish HBO channel, so I had to read Spanish subtitles. That was a workout, but I still enjoyed it very much.
