resuming topic....

this isnt a knock on those that do analyze all the movies they watch, but why should those of us that are tired of analyzing everything in day to day life and want to just slip into a movie not caring why or how it was made and just watching it, be classified as fucktards or lowest common denominator?

Some of us just watch the movie for entertainment aspects only, while I do read online reviews for almost all the movies I see, Ive found more times than not, that those that are getting the big bucks to tell me why I should or should not see a movie 9 times out of 10 lack the skills to write a column better than some of the shit house graffiti Ive read on jobsites.

I feel if the movie is based on facts then yes it should be scrutinized to ensure the integrity of what happened being conveyed in the film. But other than that, who cares how they kill the guy as long as the bastard dies? *granted creativity counts {SAW}* As someone said earlier the big money movie machines are the ones calling the shots, would we rather they just up and said one day "Hmmm it appears our movies lack depth or insight, we need to stop making movies period", would make for an awfully boring evening I think.

With regard to horror, honestly when was the last time you were actually scared by a horror movie? 10? 13 tops? Unless we have the funds to do something about it, all we are doing is beating the proverbial dead horse. Big money movie machines dont give a shit about us, look at the theaters when you go, most of the time they are a glorified day care center full of prepubescent trolls crowding the walkways and entrances, slowing up the lines at the concessions, and usually the same little bastards shooting text messages back and forth and making those annoying tones in the theater while others are trying to get some sort of enjoyment out of their 12-15 dollar raping they took at the ticket stand.
