Re: Uncommon Opinions

I find that surprising considering how wide of a range of movies they offer.

I find it interesting that, in an opinions thread, people are throwing their opinion around as fact

Things I say = Facts

Because it is OS, home of the snobs. I ranted about this several times before. You have your movie snobs, car snobs, shoes snobs, uniform snobs, school snobs, tv snobs, tv show snobs, music snobs, smartphone snobs, gaming console snobs, gaming headset snobs, parenting snobs.

This website has turned into snob central. If you don't like what they like or live your life the way they do, something is wrong with you. I'm just waiting for somebody to make a post saying hey you not wiping your butt correctly, you suppose to do it this way.

Some people on this website have that I was born with a platinum and diamond crusted spoon in my mouth complex. Only went to the finest schools, lived in the finest house, have the finest career with the finest wife or girlfriend with the finest vehicle. Fine wine and cheeses is all I dine on complex.

I'm not saying that everyone needs to know about film, I was saying that since most of America doesn't know film my opinion is uncommon. If you were to talk to most of the "film experts" they would agree with me. So I was just trying to point out why my opinion isn't common.

It is a shame though that there are so many great movies that make no money, like The Artist or Requiem for a Dream

Speaking of which Requiem for a Dream was the best movie from 2000-2010 (it made $7.5 M on a $4.5 M budget)

Re: Uncommon Opinions

Requiem for a Dream just depresses me every time I watch it. It is a good movie though.

I think a guy said this on the first page, but I just wanted to emphasize:

I absolutely HATED The Godfather.

The only thing worse than the movie is the reaction of people when I say this. They try to make it some sort of reflection on society. No, I just don't like the movie. It's really that simple.

Yes. Definitely a movie I cannot watch if I'm in a good mood because the movie would kill it and bury it. It certainly sticks with you for a long time too.

Requiem for a Dream is a small budget movie that didn't get marketed and didn't play in many theaters. The Artist was a limited-release movie for a very long time until it started getting Oscar buzz. Some movies don't make the money they deserve but a lot of that is due to studios not spending money on a movie unless it gets nominated for awards. You can't expect people to know about certain movies when those movies didn't play in theaters that they go to and have little to no marketing behind them.

I know and it is sad that no company will ever give great movies like that the budget or advertisement because the majority of America wouldn't like them. Instead all the money will continue to go towards Transformers


The SAT was not that long of a test

Regarding the college sports topic I don't watch them because I don't enjoy watching sports when I don't have a favorite team. If I went to Flordia or Texas I'd probably love watching college sports. It has nothing to do with the skill level
