Title: Huh? Movies Post by: trekgeezer on December 22, 2003, 09:40:44 AM How many movies have you seen where it seemed okay while you were watching it and then later you can't remember a damned thing about it?
Or, it was fun while you watched and then later you go, 'Gee, that was stupid '. I will admit there are some movies that seem quite preposterous when thought and logic are applied later. Independence Day comes to mind. I do occasionally enjoy some mindless entertainment. Title: Re: Huh?

But when I think about it later, all the elements of coolness are there, and at least in idea form the movie is really good and I remember enjoying it. So, I'll watch it again and it will SUCK.

Title: Re: Huh? Movies Post by: Susan on December 22, 2003, 10:19:15 PM Any film I don't remember much of even hours after seeing it I consider a "forgettable film", regardless of whether or not I liked it or not. In most cases I didn't have any strong feelings one way or the other which is why it becomes so mediocre that it doesn't stick in my memory. "Seabiscuit" is an example - while critics seem smitten over it I was so bored with it all that afterward I couldn't even bring myself to write a review on it. Now the ongoing joke with me is
"and the oscar goes to.....Seabiscuit!" because i just know a film that i am indifferent to will win just to spite me..lol Post Edited (12-22-03 21:21) |
