Do you have a friend or friends who...

[syxxpac]

....is just so movie-illiterate that it kind of irritates you. Now, I respect his opinion, but my friend just seems like such an idiot sometimes. For instance, I went over to his house for the night and he was going to rent a movie. Well, he worked at the store and had seen almost everything, so I just pointed out In The Bedroom as a suggestion. He shook his head, laughed and said, and I quote, "that's a 40 year old's movie." I knew this was one of the dumbest phrases ever used in the English language, but at the time I let it go. Then a few days later at school, I brought up his statement again and asked him what he meant by it, because I told him that my dad was 57 and loved action movies, so his "40 year old's" argument just didn't cut it. He told me it was because it wasn't "cool" and wasn't a "teen" movie. Now I didn't care about all that respecting opinions bullshit at this point, because it just downright pissed me off how simple minded his observation was. He then asked if I liked teen movies, to which I replied "a few," those being the American Pies, Scary Movie, Not Another Teen Movie and....uh....um... right, let's move on then. Anyway, I fired back with one simple and effective word as an argument: SLACKERS. What he said next shocked me beyond belief: Slackers is cool. Slackers is cool. Slackers is cool??!!! Now, usually I don't care, but this, coupled with the fact that after I brought it up he said Pulp Fiction, that's right, THE Pulp Fiction sucked without even seeing it just about made me want to crack some skulls.

Now whether you agree with me and find my rant legit, or disagree with me and call ME a simple minded dumbass who doesn't respect other people's opinions, I don't really care. Just rant, rant and rant some more to your heart's content. After all, that's what this forum's for, right?

[Nate6]

While I do agree with you in respect to my own opinions, it has to be understood that people should be allowed to like whatever they want. You don't have to respect someone else's opinion, just acknowledge his right to have one.

Now, on the other hand, I love In the Bedroom and Pulp Fiction and the fact that your friend blasts them (especially Pulp Fiction) when he hasn't even seen them angers me. I hate when people presume something about a film they haven't seen. I know I'm not perfect, but I try my best to enter into a film with an open mind. There's a difference between not wanting to see a film and saying a film sucks before you even see it (like your friend).

Slightly off-topic, everyone (and I mean everyone) I know hates Slackers (I'm not counting Schmoes in that poll). Slightly odd, but perhaps understandable, considering his nature, that he enjoys it.

[Strider]

Well, I wouldn't call my friends "movie-illeterate" at all. My friends are open to watching any kind of movie, especially when they're with me. Ever since I've been hanging out with them, I've been introducing to them to the classics, indies, and overall... just all the films I love. Last week, I had my friends watch a virtually unknown horror flick called Session 9. And they loved it!

Anyway, my friends told me the other day that they really liked Rollerball a lot. And of course, I despised it. And I told them so. They didn't think anything of it, and neither did I. We all respect our occasional different opinions.

Strider

[Strider]

Also, I forgot to mention, my friends have the freedom to enjoy or dislike whatever films they want, and so do I. I mean, for instance, my friends did not like The Sixth Sense or The Others at all. They thought they were both boring as hell. However, I loved both films. But we don't get into heated arguments, or start throwing blows at each other if we disagree. :)

Strider

[syxxpac]

I don't disrespect his opinion or anything. I was awestruck that somebody actually thought Slackers was cool is all, but I was pissed when he slammed one of my favorite flicks. And he's not completely stupid or simple minded as he's rented pretty much every movie in the store, and has probably seen more than me. But it was just those few comments which kinda angered me. Not his opinion, but his comments. I wouldn't say he's movie illiterate, so I take that back. I should've explained that he's just a casual movie watcher, in which most people are, right?

But I do have one two other friends who are big movie fans, and know a shitload about them. But I'm not going to shun my friends for their opinions like a certain banned schmoe from a while back, if anybody remembers that debacle.

On a totally unrelated topic - am I the only one who instinctively pictures an onion in their head when thinking of the word 'opinion'?

[Kastman]

A couple of my friends are complete idiots. If there isnt action every 5 minutes they dont like it. They were over we watched

The classic horror movie halloween, they both didn't like it, one of them thought who ever did the sounds needed to be shot (what the fuck, it has the best score in the world).

Then we watched eight legged freaks, they didn't like that i dont know why, i think it was because there wasnt ebough gore or scares or anything, maybe i should have told them it was more of a comedy.

They saw 13 ghosts, a horror movie that heaps of people hate, and they loved it. i liked it the first ime i saw it but knew that there was very stupid crap parts. And hey they thought the ending was, get this, GOOD. **SPOILERS** When that rapper women goes and messes up the discs and breaks the house**END SPOILER**



And plus one of them thought the cgi of that monster in resident evil was good, and the cgi in deep rising they also thought was good.



Sheesh, but then again, i have a friend that knows good movies.

[Mast]

These movies suck: The Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, American Pie 1 and 2, Pitch Black, In The Bedroom, American Beauty, Scary Movie 2, . . .

I have reasons to dislike those movies, but I'd say I have just offended the tastes of nearly everone at this site at least once. It all comes down to what you want and expect out of a movie, I guess. I just happen to be right.

[SAI]

I try and get my friends to sit down and watch some films from outside of the mainstream (and to their credit they've sat through and enjoyed films like In The Company Of Men Happiness Zombie & The Wicker Man, to name but a few)

But what DID amaze me was the number of people in my film class who refused to watch eiether subtitled or black and white films. That's sad and narrow minded whoever you are, but for a film student to say it... I despair, really I do

[James Logan]

Three of my friends believe THE NUTTY PROFESSOR is the best movie ever. And they really think it is.

'Nuff said.

[Adam J. Hakari]

I go to school with those who, when I mention a movie, they sometimes say, "That one was so stupid." Good enough, it's their opinion. But do they ever elaborate? God forbid. I ask them, "Why is it stupid?", and you'd think I just asked them, "How can I cut down a tree with a can of soda and a spoon?". They always leave it as "It just is," never once actually going deep into their arguments.

Oh, and they say SLACKERS is "cool" just because "it is" too. Someone help me.

[FeverDog420]

Having clueless movie friends can sometimes be beneficial! I once won $50 because my friend bet me that Tim Burton directed The Nightmare Before Christmas. Good ol' IMDb proved him wrong, so it was me buying the beers that night.

[blankpage]

My friends wouldn't know a good movie if they saw one.I respect there opinions,but come on.There fav movies are Fast and the Furious,and Pearl Harbour.If we go to the videostore,I point of PI or Fight Club to rent.And there response,"No Logan,you like pussy films.Were not going to get it."Pisses me off,all of the time.So we end up with Alien Ressurection.It's sad,but don't worry,they know what I can do.

It's just sad that they won't give some good films a chance.My best friend understands,so he'll watch.But the rest,fucking illiterates.

[the movie guy]

I hate it when my friend/roommate will NOT watch a movie all the way through with me and has to talk with friends on AIM or play Warcraft 3. I seriously don't think he's ever watched an entire movie on video before in one sitting, without doing something else as well.

I know exactly what you mean. And it's one of those things that really pisses me off.

Oh, and they say SLACKERS is "cool" just because "it is" too. Someone help me. I hear ya, dude. These people are a marketing executive's wet dream; they suck up anything that is "cool" without even knowing why. Most of 'em wouldn't dream of having their own opinions either. Heh. My, my, I'm cynical today.

[Fisting Ackbar]

Used to hang out with a guy at school who thought BATMAN & ROBIN was excellent and how he bought it on Dvd.

Although everybody is entitled to their own opinion, many people(i.e. teenagers) do have shitty taste in film. Luckily I also have a few friends who like different kind of movies but it pisses me off to hear people rave about crap like Scary Movie 2 and use "It was just so fucking funny!" as an argument.

And these people are the reason why hideous films like Scary Movie 2 are made. So benighted.. I would respect the opinions of said persons more if they would care to delineate why they have them. Especially when it's a particularly close minded opinion, like saying Pulp Fiction ''sucks'' without having seen it.

So, what we have here are individuals who think Pulp Fiction ''sucks'', but Scary Movie 2 is ''so fucking funny''? The fact that these people are the ignoble masses makes me want to reconsider living..

P.S. I know disliking Pulp Fiction isn't a ubiquitous opinion, but I digress...

[Annie Hall]

Being rather closed minded...it really bothers me when people love terrible movies and hate good movies. For example, a buddy of mine recently discovered Dirty Dancing...and thinks it is possibly the best movie ever made. Now, am I being snobbish or just a purist when I point out that there are so many other aspects to a good movie beside--what I do not particularly care for---: sexy dancing and Patrick Swayze? What about the film angles? The emotional impact? The *script*? The cinematography? Is there anything more to the fact that she likes it besides "it's just so cool"?

Not that I can see. Admittedly this does not decrease her enjoyment of the movie any (what does she care if the camera angels aren't PT Andersonesque?), but it seems that there are so many incredible movies out there, yet people seem to gravitate towards Dirty Dancing or Sleepless in Seattle.

EXCUSE ME?!?! I myself am a teenager and I will have you know that I haven't been to the movies to see a "shitty film" in ages (the last one, funnily enough, was Slackers) and that put me right off the teen movie genre and after seeing it, I immediatley sold ALL my teen movies that I had on dvd (which admitedly, weren't a lot in quantity, only American Pie and Road Trip).

I go to see lots of arthouse films on my own since none of my friends have heard of them.

Example- I received FREE tickets to see Donnie Darko a week before its national release and I had 2 tickets so I asked my friend if he wanted to see it with me (keep in mins, it was a FREE ticket) and he turned around in my face and said (to quote him accuratley): "WHY WOULD I WANT TO SEE SHIT LIKE THAT?!?! I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT BEFORE AND IT SOUNDS LIKE SHIT!"....

Now THAT gets on my nerves....

Personally, if this guy were my friend I would try to get through to his ignorant mind through the effective medium of a clenched fist. :D

[Beeblebrox]

Well, he worked at the store and had seen almost everything, so I just pointed out In The Bedroom as a suggestion. He shook his head, laughed and said, and I quote, "that's a 40 year old's movie."

Isn't it reasonable to assume that your friend wouldn't really enjoy In The Bedroom? So why subject him to a movie that you know will be a torturous experience for him?

You've already stated that he works at the store and has seen more movies than you. We're not talking about ignorance or lack of exposure, but rather personal taste. And having different taste from yours doesn't make him an "idiot."

How would you like it if someone forced their taste on you and then called you "illiterate" if you didn't like what they liked?

[Beeblebrox]

Now, am I being snobbish or just a purist when I point out that there are so many other aspects to a good movie beside--what I do not particularly care for---: sexy dancing and Patrick Swayze?

Yes, you're being a snob.

I've never understood why some people use their taste in films as some sort of indicator of intelligence. "I like good movies, not that garbage for the masses," or "Mass audiences are stupid, lazy, close-minded, or ignorant."

There are two important things to understand here. First of all, all of you ARE part of the mass audience. You are the masses, in that the masses are simply a collection of individuals with individual tastes but who all go to see the same movies. How many here did NOT see Spider-man or LOTR? If you did, then as much as you'd like to imagine that you were the lone seasoned film afficianado in the crowd able to appreciate films on a different level than the monkeys around you, you were not distinguishable in any practical measure.

Second of all, and I'm sorry to burst your bubble here, liking arthouse or obscure or limited release films DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE SMARTER OR HAVE BETTER TASTE than anyone else. It doesn't mean you are more open-minded. It doesn't mean that you are more sophisticated. It means that you like a different type of movie than the guy next to you. And that's all it means.

If your friend likes Dirty Dancing, then that's her business. If it's her favorite film, then that's her business. It was a popular movie and it appealed to a lot of people. Why should she care about camera angles or editing? Is that what makes a great film? Camera angles?

What he said! Well put, Beeblebrox.

[Jason Voorhees]

Yeah, I agree. My only real complaint (As I hinted at in my initial post) regards people who make a really close-minded decision, and then won't even explain why they feel that way; like saying Pulp Fiction sucks without even watching it. I can understand if someone didn't want to see Pulp Fiction because they don't like that genre, or something arbitrarily similar to that, but that doesn't mean the movie sucks, it just means that it isn't their thing.

Personally, I don't really like musicals, so I haven't seen Moulin Rouge. Does that mean the film sucks? Hardly, it just means the film's not for me.

I agree. And I'm certainly not defending that. I've seen plenty of people trashing 8 Mile because of M&M when they haven't seen it.

How else can you respond but to say, "Well, you haven't seen it."

How would you like it if someone forced their taste on you and then called you "illiterate" if you didn't like what they liked?

First point: I never at any point said "we have to watch this" and it was merely a suggestion. Hell, I don't think I'd like it, but it was just a suggestion since he'd seen pretty much everything. I just thought it was weird when he treated it as an insult, laughing at my suggestion when a simple "no, I don't want to" would more than suffice.

Second point: I referred to him as an idiot when he bashed Pulp Fiction when he hasn't even seen it (I never mentioned before but he did the same for Aliens). In my opinion, that narrowminded observation was an idiotic statement, hence the title IDIOT that I used to describe him. I said he's an idiot sometimes, as am I and most people now and then. I never said he was stupid for anything else, whether with his opinion or otherwise, and meant only his comments.

Well...ok, so, am I a snob...that's been proven (not even I am stupid enough to deny it :p ) And, my post didn't really express the point that I meant for it too (my tangents are long, and often meaningless).

Let me briefly say that I do not think of myself as more intelligent than anyone because I like different movies. I did not intend to use my dislike of Patrick Swayze or Dirty Dancing or my opinion of the movie as a whole as an indicator of my intelligence, rather as a basis of opinion on which to base the rest of the post (basically, you love Dirty Dancing? Chances are, after this post, you'll hate me...etc.) And I agree, I am one of the masses. I am no better than the chick down the street or the guy who ran by me earlier today during my morning walk. And my list did come off as terribly "Frasier Crane" and East Coast snobbishness, and for all of this, I apologize.

But, let me get to my point that I actually forgot to make in my prior post: the quality of every movie is subjective. One person may love XXX, while another may swear by another action series. Someone may adore Harry Potter and think Lord of the Rings is crap. That is really none of my concern. The list I intended to make was one that showed that a movie such as Dirty Dancing has less to offer than so many other movies (as far as the script and the acting go). Now, my buddy couldn't care less if this is true, she enjoys the movie. But, it bothers me when I see someone who I often trust in so much, judge another movie such as Citizen Kane (I believe I am quoting "that looks long and stupid"), by the mastery that she believes to be Dirty Dancing.

Hopefully, I have not offended anyone with this post, and have made my point a bit clearer. And by the by, I am not knocking mainstream movies. Hell, I saw LOTR seven times in the theaters and Moulin Rouge (my favorite movie) is certainly not "arthouse or independent" in my eyes. :)

Yeah, I didn't think you were defending that type of behavior. I was just trying to clarify my initial statement a bit.

You're well spoken, and I'm glad we're in agreement.

[scottish-movie-freak]

My school is very modern (:confused:) and we have a dvd player at our school. I remember that round about the end of June, we were allowed to bring in dvds or videos to watch as a special treat since it was near the holidays and I brought in Ghost World (with Thora Birch) and asked the teacher if we could watch it. Someone else (who shall remain nameless) brought in a trashy video so the teacher put it to a class vote. No-one had heard of Ghost World (apart from myself) so, needless to say, we watched the visually enriching Coyote Ugly instead....

This pissed me off too.....:mad:

that's a pretty funny story. Thank you for the laugh. :)

[ToasT]

I know this kid who only likes a movie if it has action. If there is no action (meaning explosions, car chases, gore, and sex) then he hates the movie. He loved Tomb Raider but hated films that have any kind of meaning.

[A Canadian ThereWolf]

ThereWolf worked in a pawn shop earlier this year (he quit and found another job though.) and every one of his co-workers had lousy taste in films or were very movie illiterate, here's just a few statements that they made;

"Didn't Robin Williams win an Oscar for Patch Adams?!?"

"Hey, Lost In Space! That's a good movie!"

"Hey, Scary Movie 2 IS funny!"

"Men In Black II was way better than the first one!"

"A lot of people hated Freddy Got Fingered, but I thought it was pretty enjoyable!"

"I thought The Skulls was awesome!"

"I didn't like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon because I had to read a lot!"

"Atlantis: The Lost Empire was probably Disney's best animated film yet!"

Now you're thinking "No wonder ThereWolf quit that job!"
Actually it wasn't their taste in movies that made ThereWolf quit, they were just dicks in general!

[syxxpac]

This was too funny I just had to share it!

Me and my friend (yes, the same guy this thread was based on) were surfing Rotten Tomatoes in school. I was browsing when he saw what it was and wanted to know what Van Wilder (his favorite movie I think) got for a rating after I explained the rating system and stuff. When he saw that it got 20% he said "bullshit! That movie's awesome!" I didn't say anything because I haven't seen it, so no judgment here. Now for the funny part. After I laughed because of his reaction, he shot back to put in a title that I liked. I put in Pulp Fiction and, seeing this, he smirked and let out a little laugh, and repeated the title in a sarcastic, disdainful sort of way. Anyway, when he saw that it got 100%, with a shitload of fresh reviews, he couldn't believe it. I can't really describe his reaction (it was classic :D), but needless to say he was somewhat shocked. Then he said that it didn't matter what it got as a rating, "that movie sucks." I laughed at him again and asked why, and this is what he said: "It can't be that good if I hadn't heard anything about it."

Take this as you will. This time I found it hilarious instead of angering, for hopefully obvious reasons.

[sleekproductions]

Ok, I'm a teenager, and I LOVE movies. And I will admit, I do like some "stupid" movies. Sometimes it's great just to sit back, relax, not think, and just enjoy yourself. But other times it's great to think, and get emotinally involved in a movie. But I'm lucky I supose, because I go to a private school, so I have a group of about 5 or 6 friends that actually have good taste in movies. Sure I hear stupid comments from people a lot, but my friends and I... we know what's going on.

[Nate6]

I have a fresh example!

Yesterday my Science class was in the school library for some research, and two of my best friends are also in the class. One had a teen magazine with a feature in it about Extreme Ops. One of my friends, a guy, said "Whoa. That looks awesome with all the snowboarding tricks and that hot Bridgette girl in it!" The other friend, a girl, said "Oh, it has Devon Sawa! We all have to go! Wanna go, Nate?" I almost threw up. Now, I'm a big advocate of "Everyone has a right to their own opinions," but, HOLY CRAP! The fact that this film is being called one of the worst of the year doesn't bode well, and I wouldn't sit through a boring movie for a few minutes of Bridgette Wilson-Sampras. It's not worth it! Ugh...

[Moviefan1234]

Can't blame you Nate.
I believe everyone has the right to their own opinion, but some of the kids at my school just can't judge a movie. For an algebra project we had to make a graph with a bunch of movies of the last 8 years or so. Some of the kids were ranking the "Austin Powers" movies over "Braveheart." Come on!
