52. "RE: Where do you stand on the IMPORTANT issues?" In response to In response to 0
Fight Club --- Didn't like it. An ugly film that doesn't say anything.
Donnie Darko --- Dumb. I really think you need to be stoned to find anything worthwhile in this film.
Pulp Fiction --- One of the most entertaining films of the 90s.
Star Wars episodes I - III --- I think it's no secret, I'm a fan.
Crash --- No, James Spader, no!!
War of the Worlds --- Never saw it. I'm sure it's better than Independence Day but I'm bored of the whole concept.
Napoleon Dynamite --- Watched the first half hour. Couldn't find a story. Stopped it to watch basketball.
Lord of the Rings trilogy --- Love the books, hate the films.
Sin City --- Repetitive and pointless. Unstoppable tough guy defends whore, kills perverted bad dudes. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Matrix series --- Silly and uninteresting.
Memento --- A good short film concept stretched way too long.
City of God --- A very good film that uncomfortably flirts with making these characters' tragic lives a little too entertaining.
Lost in Translation --- Impressive 2nd film, but not the Graduate or anything.
Scarface --- Hawks great, De Palma amusing.
Training Day --- Never saw it.
Family Guy --- Not funny at all. Like its written by all the writers who got rejected by the Simpsons.
Simpsons --- Among the best shows television ever produced for a few seasons, a slow decline since "Who Shot Mr. Burns" until becoming completely unwatchable in the last few years.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force --- Never seen it. These characters get pretty annoying on repeat listens of DangerDoom.
Arrested Development --- Never seen it.
Lost --- Never seen it.
The Office, American and British --- Never seen it. (I don't own a television).
Marvel vs DC --- The only comics I ever read were Mad and Sgt. Rock.
Batman and prep time --- amusing.
Harry Potter (books and/or movies) --- I don't really know anything about British boarding schools. I've never read these books or seen these films, but it really doesn't seem like my sort of thing.
George W. Bush (just curious) --- Will be universally regarded as a failure by historians and the public alike before the end of his life.
