    Re: Seven Pounds

    Honestly, had you just said: "You're really going to defense WWW and MIBII" you'd have an argument, but ID4 and Bad Boys II are both good films, so yes...I think we'd defend them.

      Look, you can like these movies all you want, I enjoy a few clunkers myself. But lets not pretend that these are 'good' muchless 'great' films.

        Isn't it all subjective, like music?

          What you like? yes, that is subjective. Whats good or bad? No.
          Beethovens 9th is great music wether you like it or not.
          Crank Dat by Soldier boy, is not.

          Believe me, I love David Lynchs Dune. Will I ever argue thats its great or even good? god no, its terrible, but I like it. Thats the thing; knowing the difference between what you like and what is good.

            Thats not true. I personally dont like Beethoven's 9th. So its not great to me. I recognize its may be great to others but not me. Most people say Gone With The Wind is a great movie, I dont.

            I think Bad Boys 2 is a good movie. I enjoy it any time it comes on, I watch it and enjoy it. I like Hitch too. Movies, Music, Art are all subjective.

                You just made my point.

                  How?

                  Wasn't your point that, like it or not, 9th was a "great" piece of music?

                  He said that he doesn't like it and doesn't think it is great.

                  How are those the same point?

                      Independence Day was a great action flick. Right up there with the likes of The Rock, Armageddon, and Con Air.

                            When movie tickets cost $10, I don't blame anyone for pirating.

                              Who gives a crap about Independence Day or Bad Boys II or Motzart or whatever.

                              I keep coming to this thread to see if anyone else saw the movie today and what their impressions are of it, yet all I get is 2 pages of people arguing over each other's opinions of art.

                              Please, go find some place else to argue if it's not about this film.

                                $10 is nothing. I'm sure with all the sports fans we have, a lot of you guys spends $80+ on a single football game a few times a season... What's $10?

                                Besides, get netflix or something, then.

                                Stealing **** isn't cool. Would you walk into a store and jack DVD's off the shelf? I would certainly hope not. Downloading them is no different.

                                Or I guess you condone someone eating in at a restaurant and then skipping the bill when it comes time to pay?

                                Those things are no different; except the one you can do from the comfort of your own home, so you don't actually have to face anyone to do it... Guess it makes people feel better about stealing crap when no one is around to catch them...
