Ah yes, OG. I think I agreed with him about 10% of the time when I actually subscribed to that magazine.

Again, I disagree. The awful: The Wolf is a useless character who's only onscreen because he looks cool and gets to humiliate Jules and Vincent (really, they can't figure out how to clean themselves or the car?). The scenes with Willis and his girlfriend are pretty awful (except for the Zed's dead line). The scenes…

"needlessly petty and contrarian"? I'm offering a legitimate opinion of a film. If I were "needlessly petty and contrarian", I would just say, "Pulp Fiction sucks!" and watch the down-votes roll in. I think it's an entertaining but flawed and unbelievably overrated film, and I've stated my reasons for that here and…

Agreed. Re: The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, The Good The Bad, and the Ugly, Schindler's List, Fight Club, Inception, Forrest Gump, … I guess that's enough, and that's just from the Top 20.

I recently re-subscribed to cable (only $2.50 a month because condo fees pay most of it otherwise I wouldn't bother), and I got the Xfinity X1 box, which is every bit as good as the satellite boxes now. No more BSOS (Blue Screen of Stupidity) on the old Comcast boxes.

Why are destroyed cable companies a bad thing?

You may consider it a masterpiece, but "undeniably" is obviously wrong. It didn't "change the whole film landscape", it just spawned some shitty (and a couple of not-so-shitty) "homages".

I disagree. There's about 90 minutes of a great film in there, plus 30 minutes of good, and about 30 minutes of awful.

Maybe he stated that he was making movies for his kids somewhere, but I always thought it was for the money. I remember watching him on Carson (not Daly) as a kid. He was promoting some movie, and when asked about why he did Best Defense (which had come out earlier to horrible reviews), he said that originally he said…

See also, most comedic sports-movies.

I don't think that you understand what "certified" or "masterpiece" means. I'm not knocking the films that you list, but "masterpiece" implies perfections/near-perfection, and none of those films are that. Just the fact that you list five masterpieces in one year kind of nullifies the term.

Fine, it's a turd. It is not, by any measure, the worst movie ever.

The Blind Side clearly isn't the worst movie ever. It was decently acted with a reasonable script and had some/many hokey moments. It is certainly overrated, and Bullock's performance wasn't the best that year, but that's not how the Oscars work any longer. It's now just a Lifetime Achievement Award, or a…

Who called it his best movie since Manhattan? I can't find the source by Googling.

As many others said above, it's impossible to say as so many are equally inept and devoid of anyone involved with actual talent. I always dismiss MST3K-like movies just because it's pretty easy to make those kinds of bad films, and the reasons for making them are usually, "It will make a few bucks", which is okay if…

Seconded. Just reading that line doesn't convey the funny, but Depp really sold it, and it usually comes to mind when people are talking about hilarious movie quotes.

I think you mean "angular momentum".

Reminds me of the time I saw Austin Powers 2 in the theater. It was opening weekend, packed house, and when Austin clicked the remote and the not silent wife went silent, my friend said, audible to almost everyone, "Perfect." Loudest laugh of the movie followed.

No, but I will accept that she is an old British man.

I have the exact opposite experience. Old people like to talk to each other, but never text. It's always you young whippersnappers (anyone under 40) that text and Facebook update during a film.
