Is it just me, but every time I watch a Woody Allen movie, I get sad becuase I know the woman he ends up with in the end will soon be replaced with a younger asian girl (preferably related to the woman). I dunno it has all just ruined my woody allen movie joy.

/me never liked W. Allen much...

uhm btw... you made a doublepost ;)

I used to be a big Woody Allen fan.  I own a bunch of his older movies on DVD.  I'm not as much of a fan as I was 20 years ago, but I still watch his movies once in awhile.  BROADWAY DANNY ROSE is my favorite, but I also like SLEEPER, LOVE AND DEATH, WHAT'S UP TIGER LILLY? and a few others.  I'm not into his newer stuff very much.

Yeah, his earlier stuff is much better, IMO.
Which movie is it where someone tells his character that they liked his earlier, funnier ones better?

My favorite Woody Allen films are:

1. Love and Death
2. Sleeper
3. Zelig
4. Bannanas
5. Take the Money and Run
6. Once Upon a Midnight Sex Comedy

The rest are good, but not great.

My favorite would have to be Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex, But Were Afraid to Ask.

That one is worth seeing just for the giant boob. However, my favourite part would have to be the dramatization of what goes on inside when you have sex. Funny movie with an impressive cast.

As for the original question, if I could no longer enjoy any celebrity who said or did something that offended me, there wouldn't be much left to entertain me. I just try to ignore their personal lives, opinions and whatever. Their work is all that interests me. Unless they did something really sick and disgusting (harming animals or molesting kids), or their personal and political baggage starts to creep into their work. Then I'd have no use for them.

Marrying your step daugter isn't as bad but also right up the same ally as molesting kids. Also anyone else woulde be different, but since it is woody and all his characters are pretty mush the same person (him), it is hard to let it go.
