But if I want to stare at fields and trees out the side window of my car for three hours, I'll take a long drive on a country road and save myself the $8!
Attack Of The Clones Yoda was corny
Gladiator = awefull (even worse than my spelling)
Enough for now

Whoever it was that said that Full Metal Jacket was "realistic"... what planet are you on? I do think it was a good film, and unlike many, I didn't have a problem with the stylistic jump halfway through. There are many who love the first section and hate the second. Not me- I love the Vietnam portion of the film- *but* I've never met a single veteran of the war who said it was "realistic", and I've known many veterans. Hell, I wasn't there... but even I can tell you that it isn't realistic at all. I don't think it was intended to be though, so I don't see it as a shortcoming or failure.

Well what i mean by 'realisitic' is in the filmmaking sense. Such as i'm pulled into the film,really interested into whats going on,various emotions running through my body..& it seems 'real' in that aspect then.Basically when the directing is so good.They can get by with anything,no matter how implausible.
Meanwhile i never had that reaction to Platoon.Sure it's probably more accurate.Yet even though i like Stone,the film seemed off & forced in some moments. Thus i feel Salvador was his superior film of that year.It's far better made & very dramatic & punches you in the gut.While Platoon did nothing for me.

Don't mess with the bighead
and don't speak about that which you do not understand.
You don't know this lookslikeme cat like I do. He is pure evil and will eat your children and spit them back out at you. He must be stopped!!!!
Sure by day he looks like you average everyday diet pepsi drinking, junk food eating, racing fan. But by night when the lights go out he likes to watch Burt Reynolds movie marathons.
All I can say is "Disturbing"
and
"Texas has a WhoreHouse in it"

Burt Reynolds = most underrated actor of all time!!! There's an actor that has been robbed by the academy continuously for years!!!

I assume you mean this post by groucho regarding cliche posts -
"When somebody doesn't like a movie you don't like, you tell them they didn't didn't understand it and recommend a bad mainstream film. Example: "You didn't like Magnolia because you didn't understand it. Perhaps you would be more comfortable watching Armageddon."
I can see how you would think that is funny. BUT THIS IS NO LAUGHING MATTER!!! Lookslikeme MUST be stopped!!!!!
Monkey only you can stop lookslikeme.
P.S. Lookslikeme I do believe Mr. Laughs and The Spoiler hated Road To Perdition also. STOP THIS MADNESS!!! Please bring back my old sidekick Monkey!!!!!! Now he had good taste in movies!!!

I hate Fargo. I can't see why people are gah gah over it.
And for the record, Titanic blew, and so did it's SFX. I know that's not a shocking opinion, but geez...
