Which is why I wear my halitosis like a badge of honor. I LIVE.

Speaking of Waterworld, I know it's absurd with plot holes big enough to pilot the Valdez through, but damn if it's not entertaining as hell. I think a big part of the problem was mocking of the huge and ever-expanding budget.

Begging the question…why didn't she at least give a diamond worth millions to her granddaughter?

Every mother I know took their daughters to see Wonder Woman. Hollywood is run by morons.

Paving the way for her opus, Mean Girls.

It's one of my wife's favorites, if only for the framing device scene at the end with pictures of all the things Rose went on to do. She sees the romance as what set an independent spirit free.

The long shots of the ship while it's sinking, especially with the flares drifting down into the water as the lifeboats pull away, are amazingly beautiful.

Not just appealing to audiences; I'd say they've come to realize a movie doesn't have to be released during summer break or during the holidays to blow it out. They're better off finding soft spots in the schedule and exploiting those. If there's a place resistant to change, it's Hollywood, so I'm not surprised it…

Honest question - what Spielberg films use a framing device other than Private Ryan, which was released a year later?

Exactly. You run your car into a tree, who's at fault?

I'm going to disagree with that. Most of the shots were of a massive model with CGI filling in the gaps. I'd say the only time it doesn't look right is the opening scene when it's loading.

I swear to god Zane's performance here is one of my all-time favorites. I start laughing just thinking about it, in a good way. He brings so much joy to being a complete prick.

Now you're just fucking with us.

I've always wondered if there's a database of tickets sold as opposed to revenues. You've had both inflation and real price increases, so I can't imaging being able to accurately compare across decades.

The old couple lying together in bed while the water rises was the best scene in the film for me. Close second was Zane shooting and yelling at Jack and Rose at the bottom of the stairwell before realizing he was in waist-deep water and it was time to get the hell out of there.

Funny story - I was in Mexico recently having dinner outside by the beach, and the background musician was playing flute over some recorded music. Mostly corny love songs, but he played My Heart Will Go On and by the end half the women (including my wife) were crying and all burst into enthusiastic applause when he…

I agree regarding Raiders. I saw it on a rainy day during a beach vacation with my dad and he about shot out of his seat when it ended with an enthusiastic "now THAT'S a movie!" He grew up on the same serials to which Spielberg was paying homage, so it resonated with him even more. That probably shaped my…

I was older - mid-20s - and saw it the second week in a big, completely packed theater. I wasn't blown away by the film, but there's no denying the substantial impact it had on the crowd.

My wife honestly believes it's one of cinema's great love stories (more due to the liberation of Rose than anything else) while I enjoy the disaster movie half of the film and Billy Zane's awesome asshole.

I thought all the characters and performances were good, with the exception of DiCaprio and his absurd sidekick Fabrizio. Unfortunately they took up the majority of runtime.
