But why should I be the only one on this board - or any board, for that matter - to do that?
No thanks. I'll savage any movie I deem worth savaging with no regard to how many other people enjoy it. Just like you do, right? And everyone else?
Well, I try not to savage films people enjoy because if it's something I've learned about message boards, they are a place where people either go to voice their opinion when they feel it goes against what the majority is or if they go to defend something they feel is defending. Most people, when it comes to their movies, take anything said in a deflamatory without any critical reason for such disregard a personal attack. If anything, I just try to encourage less of a close-minded one way arguement and more of a critical openess where the other person can defend their movie.
It's something I learned in posting my feelings about Terrence Malick movies.
So, I don't get the pigeonhole you're trying to put me in.
Sorry for that. That's usually what happens among savages who savage.
I feel the same about 21 Grams, if it makes you feel better.
Somewhat, but to me, Batman is more sacred ground than some director who got lucky off of one foriegn film. Cheers, mate, and we'll just agree to disagree. You disliked Batman so much, I had it as the third best film of 2005 behind King Kong and Munich.
