91797, That's like being angry at an echo

>SOME of you have. Most of you have not.

I'd say most have, especially in the beginning of the thread

The discussion wasn't whether Pulp Fiction was overrated. It was whether people liked it.

A few people said they liked it or thought it was great.

YOU then argued these people were wrong because there are critics and fans out there who overanalyze it. You claimed that people who like it only do because they are "supposed to like it".

Of course when you start spouting out that stuff it's going to draw a few of the overanalyzers out of the woodwork. That doesn't support your point nor does it discredit the opinions of the initial posts.

>Well, overanalysis is not just about magnitude of
analysis, but direction of analysis.

Exactly my point. Overanalysis is wrong... unless you agree with what they are saying.

The only thing that annoyed me was Longo coming in acting like he was clarifying the argument when all he did was play into the same strawman that you created. You took the discussion of the rails and Longo acted like that was the right direction.

Also, he liked The Savages.
