SEE THAT KEY ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE KEYBOARD THAT SAYS "CAPS LOCK"? HIT IT!!!

And the capslock key is over-rated by you.

I liked it the first time I saw it, but it didn't hold up to repeat viewings at all IMO.

Interesting, first you ask everyone to rate your collection, then you go and bash apparently EVERYONE in this forum for not liking The Others?

"classic"? - no

"old school..."? - no

decent movie - sure

anything from the last ten years cannot be classified as classic or "old school" ... sorry

(oh and unless you were going for under-ated, that should be spelled underrated)

Josh, you hit the nail squarely on the head for this film with one line.

It must be a classic. I fell asleep during it and I tend to fall asleep during "classics." :)

shouldn't this be in Movie Talk?

Great film. Love it.

"you people"? I thought that that was a racist term these days (don't know why, but in today's world...)

Use more Caps. I don't think we got the full effect of your post because you left some of the words in lower case in the thread title.




First day? That leads me to believe that you somehow know that we have treated the film bad and underrated somehow. How could that be? Have you've been spying on us or something? TELL ME, MAN!!! (see, correct use of caps. To express a quick amount of strong speech)

ok well, the movie was enjoyable the first time I watched it, but I agree with an above poster that it didn't hold up that well after the 2nd time I watched it.

I saw the movie when it was at the theater. Only recently did I find the urge to rent it. I did... rented it, watched it, and now I'm good for a while. I do like the movie, but it isn't the kind of movie you can watch over and over again.

I don't think it's underrated "here" by "us". IIRC, it was actually praised by a lot of people--me included--when it came out in theaters. Plus, if you search for "Scariest scenes" or "scary movie" threads, you'll find that it gets a decent amount of mention.

I like the movie so I don't know what you are talking about. Also, if you are discussing a movie, you should post in Movie Talk. If you are discussing a DVD (commentary, extras, video, audio) you should post in DVD Talk. This was very confusing for me when I first joined here. Hope that helps and stop it with the All caps please.

Sorry. What does "The Others" have to do with a psychic ball shaver?

Sally Struthers was OK in it... but I didn't think the acting was that great. :hscratch:

Crap . . . he is right! I must immediately sell all my DVDs and replace each one with a copy of the Others! And now my whole world is caving in around me . . .

didnt do a thing for me....so I passed on adding it to my library. I do, however, love The Other...from '72. :D

I think this belongs over in the movie section as well, along with all his other posts...

cultshock
08-19-04, 09:27 PM
I dunno, I think all his posts belong somewhere else entirely.

Well, I like the movie and have seen it twice.

I don't like caps lock though.

lb999 this one I'm just going to close since I'm not sure I see the discussion going much of anywhere. If you wish to start a thread about the Others in Movie Talk please feel free to do so. Just remember everyone has opinions and starting a conversation by making blanket accusations isn't usually the best way to get started ;)

Again though welcome to DVDtalk :D
