Here's another confession:
- I think Citizen Kane is overrated.

- the first movie I saw in the theater was Star Trek with my dad and older brother.
- I see more kid's films in the theater than I should, but in my defense, I am a nanny. And I can't help liking cute movies.
- I haven't seen a lot of movies that I should have when I was a teenager. that includes american pie, eurotrip, tons of horror movies, etc. I doubt I will ever get the urge to see them.

- I feel that Pitch Black is one of the worst films ever made.

How have you never seen Taxi Driver?
I-I have never seen a Clint Eastwood starred movie.

-Castaway made me cry like a little girl
-I can perform the Lord of The Rings trilogy word by word, line by line as a one man act. Even the Elfish.

You guys are missing out.
And, Citizen Kane isn't overrated if you take into account the stylistic innovations Orson Welles established and its influence on noir.
- I have never seen a Renoir film.
stayed in Semi-Pro because my girlfriend ended up giving me head during.
Empty theater?

So when you say you have all those DVDs you haven't watched, do you mean just not on that format, or you've never seen the film period?
Jessooker

I will get on that ASAP, how long ASAP is a whole other story
No I get movies that either people I trust have recommended or that are considered classics that I've never seen. I just have never gotten around to watching them and the list keeps growing.
I have a hard time buying DVDs, since I watch them so few times, so the list is all movies I'll rent from blocbuster and I only go there a couple of times a year which makes the list unbelievably long

I find absolutely nothing wrong with seeing movies alone. In fact, I encourage people to do it more often. Last Friday I did and it was great. Granted, it was The Happening, but still I enjoyed just being alone.

Haha, dude, even if it sucks, you're not going to realize it until a few months afterward.

- I watch most movies with subtitles because I'm anal retentive and need to see/hear EVERYTHING they say.
I also do this, because when they say a line, even if its one line, and I didn't understand it, I'll put on subtitles and rewind the scene, it annoys me so much when I don't understand what they said.
-I see most of the movies I see in theaters by myself
-I see 95% of the movies I watch at home by myself
I also do this, because my friends don't like to watch movies.

Hm, will add to list. Never heard of it.

The closest I have ever gotten to a violent rampage was watching Kung Fu Panda and having to hear little kids being too loud.
The mom in front of us was letting her kids run down the aisles, and this was at like 12 at night, I really wanted to go over there and yell at her.

Smash Adams
06/17/08, 08:12 PM
I don't think I've ever cried during a movie and during the notebook I thought that
they should just go ahead and die already since they're old and senile
-I really enojyed Crash, but when asked about it, I will joke about it being horrible and say that I think its compeltely horrible. This is only because I think Brokeback Mountain deserved to win Best Picture. Secretly, I like Crash a lot. I just like Brokeback Mountain more.

- I am 100% for people having there own opinions, but it honestly KILLS me how much shit people give M. Night Shyamalan when he tries SO HARD to make new, and original movies every time he makes a film. Then they bitch about hollywood making remakes.

At least you made it through the whole movie eventually. That's all that matters.

That part and where he talks to Don Cheadle about his family in the therapist's office made me cry like a baby too. I think that movie is great and underrated as well; Cheadle is one of my favorite actors.

I don't need to talk about her or look at pictures... 'cause the truth is, a lot of times, I see her... on the street. I walk down the street, I see her in someone else's face... clearer than any of the pictures you carry with you. I get that you're in pain, but you got each other. You got each other!

There's a Coppola, Scorsese and Kubrick class they're offering for summer session and y'all need to take it. Sheesh.
I love Crash. The scene where the little Spanish girl runs out the screen door always gets to me. As everyone can see, I have no problem crying at movies and they tend to move me quite a bit.
Seriously, I know you don't like Castaway, but when Chuck leaves Kelly and then they kiss and he tells her she has to go back inside, I absolutely sob, everytime.
-Kevin Smith is probably my second favorite film-maker despite his films not being "good". but highly entertaining, and re-watchable.

-One of my favorite quotes from a movie is from The Good Shepherd: "I remember a senator once asked me. When we talk about "CIA" why we never use the word "the" in front of it. And I asked him, do you put the word "the" in front of "God"?", especially because of Lee Pace's cocky delivery. However, I thought the movie itself was incredibly boring.
What exactly is the Beach about?
and what the hell is Don's Plum and why was was it banned from being sold in NA?
The Beach is about an american tourist (Leo) in Thailand who wants to have a not typical tourist experience. This crazy guy tells him a story about an island near where they are that's "perfect" and gives him a map to it.
Don's Plum was a movie released in 2001, about a bunch of friends who go to a diner called Don's Plum all the time. A lot of it was ad-libbed, and it's a little weird to say the least. The way it was filmed, it looks like a documentary. After a lawsuit settled in 1999 by Leo and Tobey Maguire, who is also in the movie, it can't be sold in North America. I think they're ashamed/embarrassed of it or something.

I love that movie. Clive Owen is also another one of those guys that hasn't really done a bad movie. (Though I wasn't a huge fan of Shoot 'Em Up)
Me too. He was perfect in Closer. I thought he deserved the Oscar.

- I fell asleep during the first Lord of the Rings movie and never bothered with the others.
- I've never seen any Godfather or Rocky movies
- I had never even heard of The Goonies before last year (I've since seen it, don't worry)
- ET and The Wizard of Oz really creep me out
