I assume that AB's taking the piss a little...but...

i don't think Citizen Kane is particularly great to watch now. Unbelievably important film, at the time, changed the face of cinema, blah blah...but it's of its time. It has to be watched in context. As a stand alone film, now, it's pretty Meh.

Same goes for The Third Man and other seminal films. Of their time, imo.

But you take a film like 'Vertigo' - which had pretty impressive special effects for the time (now, obviously laughable), but it's still a phenomenal film, with stunning acting, great plot, fabulous direction. I could watch it again and again - couldn't say the same about Citizen Kane.

daylight (oh no my dog i cant live without my dog )

Usually the movies I end up really disliking the most are the ones that are okay on their own, but are ruined by the over saturation of uncreative shitheads quoting them ad nauseum.

Austin Powers and Napoleon Dynamite are probably the two cheif examples of this bullshit.

that can be awful. but i don't think enough people have actually seen Napoleon Dynamite in the UK for that to be a problem here.

The worst example of what you speak of in the UK, is fucking 'Withnail and I', and has been for nearly 20 years.

quoted endlessly by annoying students for decades!!

i remember jd and cloudbuster doing that one day on here. they both lost a few fingers

I wish I could be whisked away to a land where movie quotes were outlawed and people were forced to come up with their own humor.

Oh, I also hate Kevin Smith movies (although I guess Clerks was kind of okay). And that's independant of the fact people quote them all the time.

Wholeheartedly agree with you

.....but for some reason I still couldn't take my eyes of the screen*





*The "Ash Rai" factor (and Nitin Ganatra was a plus point! )

Batman & Robin
Independence Day
Pearl Harbour
Starsky & Hutch

Also, so not looking forward to the movie adaptation of Aeon Flux. It just looks like it'll be horrible. They cast Charlize Theron as Aeon.

I hardly ever watch films..Just the thought of sitting down in front of something that is going to last for over an hour fills me with dread.

So, for my money, the extended, multiple-disc versions of the LOTR trilogy really are the stuff of nightmares. I gladly offered to babysit my wife's young cousin whilst my wife and her family went off to see the last one at the cinema. A pooey nappy and endless hours of inexplicable screamin or LOTR...?

I maintain I got the better end of the deal.





Sorry Natisse!

Brian Mcfatten how badly you have aged.

Dat movie where Russell Crowe playz a hardnosed reporter- but i forgot da title of da film- datz how bad it was. I swear 2 the heavenz above- dat is da worst movie i had ever laid eyez on 2 date!! I kept lookin at my watch...and gettin angry when i thought da film was gonna finish- but it wouldn't!! My mum looked agitated...and my nana just fell asleep. WE all came out wishin we'd snuck in2 another cinema hall or sumfin like datz!

senik said:

i get grief for having the same view as you.

brando's a genius, and i don't think it's particularly a bad film, but it is massively, massively overrated.

as is the book. although the book at least is written in brilliantly evocative language by a stunningly talented author.

p0pstar said:

westside? oh my ...brian looks like hes devoid of a big mac there

Christopher said:

They were supporting Boyzone and they were all wearing long black macs like the ones you and cloudy wear to your "special" flasher partys
