Critics be hanged, I'll still rent the film from Netflix and buy a bag of popcorn to go along with it on the first movie night it's available. |

That is true, but he would fall through if he did get a role like this today. He has lost this loving feeling to Scientology. Not trolling, I seriously believe, he has lost some ability for good non "action-figure" play, and I speculate if this is due to his engagement to Scientology and what it teaches about the mind. Good acting requires a good contact to one's psyche, also the more dark spots, to really burn through the screen, elsweise you have just a mimic. And Scientology and its practices normally throw the banhammer on such things and therefore make the acting bandwith smaller.

Lets face it, after 80 years of films theres not going to be a totally original story.
One of my favourite authors, Philip Pullman wrote the book that defined my childhood, he put in a disclaimer that he had stolen from a multitude of authors, for the mere act of reading a story generates its own iteration in every mind. All he could do was tell his one, through the lenses of language and story of every book he'd ever read. ......but one can at least try for originality. He was admitting the futility of originality in this day and age.

Originality means a higher chance to fail in earning a profit from the investment of making a blockbuster film.
There was that article on why blockbuster films suck, and "money" was the ultimate reason... here: http://www.cracked.com/article_19012_5-hollywood-secrets-that-explain-why-so-many-movies-suck.html The Greater Fool Bar-áis now open for business, 24/7.

You are just being an a**. There is much to be said in favour of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.-á-á-á-á - Oscar Wilde |

True. David Lynch is very original in his ideas. But then, nobody wants to give him money to make a film anymore, despite the success of "Twin Peaks" "The Straight Story" and "Mulholland Drive".

Been there seen it and didn't waste my money the biggest cliche in movie is Morgan Freeman role and that is telling enough about rest of the movie.
And while plot can be associated with many works..this one is..displaced...to make it work. http://i.imgur.com/1N37t.jpg

Seems Oblivion is in the TOP right now ...
Bah, will wait for a proper NON Cam torrent to be seeded and then I-¦ll watch it, see what the fuzz is all about.
But after "The Master" and "The Grey" I doubt any movie will make my personal top 10 in a looooong time. Inner Sayings of BrujoLoco: http://eve-files.com/sig/brujoloco |

I saw it, and I liked it. I'm not sure what reviewers are looking for, it was a good flick. |

I really liked Oblivion and I loved Tron Legacy.... but according to the person that wrote that article this would make me bad.
But then I looked at the person's name and felt better about myself and what I enjoy in life "Manohla Dargis" |
