Taxi Driver is "not exactly" a "mainstream" movie. I can see why a lot of people would not like it at all.

A lot of (most) critically acclaimed movies are not enjoyed by the general public.

RAWK.

Though i only own Eurotrip and Supertroopers. The former because my friends and I used to get drunk and watch it, and the latter because it's based in Vermont and several of the characters are actually based off dudes from the Brattleboro Barracks.

Hate Tarrantino, period. I'm yet to enjoy any movie he does. It's like he's trying to emulate other people's ideas, but misses the actual magic that makes them work, or made them work in the case of things which are closer to period pop.

I've never seen a SAW film because the genre has limited appeal to me. I'm tempted to watch one or two, but I've got a Netflix queue of like 400 movies, so I'm not bored enough.

Yeah, I do try things I might not like. Usually on DVD and usually only through Netflix. Sometimes, I "appreciate" them. I don't like every Kurosawa film, but I can appreciate what went into even the ones I don't like. The dude is an archetype unto himself, so I'm not bashing him. He's just the first example that comes to mind.

Lord of the Rings is part of a novelty genre for me. There are certain movies that seem awesome at the time, and LotR was one that hooked me because of the scenery porn. It had been years since I read the books, and they were filtered through nostalgia glasses, so I forgot about the pages of prose to describe a single blade of grass. It doesn't have to be visuals, anything can be a novelty.

I hated Brokeback Mountain. The characters were wooden, and not in a gay innuendo way. i just couldn't give a fuck about any of them. And even the sodomy seemed forced. I don't know a single gay who loved the movie, their reactions being midling at best. I know a ton of women who loved it, because it was HGA. It's like the entire movie was fanservice to a fanbase that didn't exist yet.

Oh, and I was going to comment on avoiding movies that are " critically acclaimed." I try like fuck to just rent/watch/buy what I like, but excessive gushing does sort of spoil me on a movie.

I have never read the books (nor will I), but I liked the two movies based on those Dan Brown novels, Angels and Demons, and the other one. But they got ripped to shreds by the critics.

i don't think you can count stuff like star wars or LOTR because they are culty type films that are bound to divide opinion.

i thought the shining was fucking awful, but i think i read the book first. apocalypse now was terrible too, as far as i remember.

more recently, there will be blood and no country for old men both left me pretty cold. i mean they were decent but got far too overhyped.

So you're bitching about the historical accuracy of Braveheart, but you're completely giving Dan Brown a pass?

Dan Brown and the writers of Braveheart. Only one of them claimed their story was 99% accurate.

besides, historical records were sketchy. Who's to say William Wallace wasn't a 3' tall Nazi from Australia?

The Usual Suspects sucked. They tried to redeem an uninteresting story with a twist ending that didn't work because you don't care at all about any of the characters.

Crash was another one I didn't recommend on my review site that registered users rate highly. All of the racism in that movie seemed contrived and none of the characters had any depth beyond the race they were representing. I think the movie also had a bunch of "fancy dialogue" where they just talk for the sake of talking. Could be wrong about that though.

All movies are bad because they don't have enough snakes on planes, well except for Snakes on a Plane, that movie was excellent. All other sucks.

I would suggest reading the LOTR books and if you still dont want to watch the movies then that your choice but it makes the movies better IMO.

As for Avatar, I got 45 mins into and said "I am so glad their were enough retards in the theatre to sell it out so I didnt get in"

Don't like a lot of the middlebrow oscar bait movies, films like The Reader, Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, Chariots of Fire etc.

Not really critically acclaimed but I also tend to dislike a lot of "fan boy" movies like 300, V for Vendetta... and of course one of the worst movies ever made... the Boondock Saints.

Yeah, After reading the books, I was thinking "thank God this movie isn't as long as it could have been."

The books are long, dry, and deal with minutia. Tolkien's idea of epic included "anal retentive." The movies at least replace it with scenery porn.

LOL. Not sure I could make that mistake. Though given the 8% rating at Rotten Tomatoes, you're probably better off.

To expand on my momentary bout of retardation. I went to the cinema with a friend of mine. We had planned on seeing one thing but as we were standing there buying tickets she changed her mind and wanted to see Avatar. I was like...ok. I had been oblivious to television for a while so I guess the Avatar trailer passed by me. Anyways I didn't realize I was not watching the Airbender version of Avatar until I saw the first set of avatars and asked my friend...where is the Asian Kid!? lol yeah not much better than the first post.
