You sure do hate a lot of movies, that those who make a living critiquing films seem to like.

Yep. Not denying this. I like to be the contrarian of such things. Just how I am.
High hopes for this one, though. Good cast, crew, director, etc.

If it ain't up to my standards...I'm going to blast it.
Because...I like, have no life.

The Newsroom 01x07: The kerfuffle they make about a man's death as well as the emotional importance they attach to it made me laugh out loud several times. The rest remains the same.

I don't understand the mindset of a contrarian. What is the purpose?

It feeds the delusion that I am a beautiful and unique snowflake.
For example: If everybody likes Transformers 3, I have to hate it.

Hope that answers your question (Nice new avatar, btw).

So you have to wait until you know what others think before forming an opinion?

Thanks!

Watched Catfish. Pretty disturbing reflection of a lot of the tendencies encouraged by social networking sites.

I would say it is the second good episode of the series. On the moral issues I completely agree with Will. If they cut out the rest of the romantic stuff, the show might even stay good.

How about you, [MENTION=6724]DiscoBiscuit[/MENTION]?

We watched No End In Sight (doc on our war in Iraq) which was great

This afternoon we watched Hearts In Atlantis which was good

And tonight we are all going to watch Man On Fire

Damn, I was going to start watching the show, but my tolerance for having shit ruined by annoying romantic arcs is running low lately.
