I have enjoyed some pretty stupid movies in my day!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780642520803074770.post-77980517255645922252009-07-07T06:22:25.672-05:002009-07-07T06:22:25.672-05:00I don't have a favorite movie.

On any given day, my mood could dictate that I pick something frivolous or totally serious and challenging. I could do a list, but it would be a long list. :)Jay Montvillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07165174061380427178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780642520803074770.post-56157060915199715952009-07-06T10:41:41.548-05:002009-07-06T10:41:41.548-05:00Not that I was going to see it but at least you sa...Not that I was going to see it but at least you saved me the trouble of even wondering about it. It just didn't look like a good movie to me. The ads were all "hey, it's Johnny Depp playing a gangster!" and that was about it. A shame because Mann actually makes a good movie every now and then (The Insider, terrific movie).<br /><br />I've never walked out on a movie but then I only go to the theaters about once a year. Honestly. I rent movies but don't feel I'm getting screwed that much if a rental turns out to be average or boring. Any more, I want movies that challenge me, hence my fascination with David Lynch. Say what you will, his stuff is WEIRD and affects you on a very strange level. Some of it is complete junk, of course, but every now and then, he'll have a scene that just hits home in some odd way.<br /><br />I've seen pieces of American Psycho and I read the book. I'm not a fan. I don't dislike it; I really don't feel one way or the other about it. I've seen better, I've seen worse. I've read better, I've read worse.<br /><br />What's YOUR favorite movie of all time?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
