I think schindlers list is overrated. And satr wars. And i despise mean girls.

I quite liked Mean Girls and was taken by Schindler's List. I'm a bit odd when it comes to Star Wars, in that I love the franchise as a whole, but I loathe the first movie, Star Wars, and find it boring, nor do I find it compelling in any way.

I've never watched Band of Brothers. I do very much like Apocalypse Now however. That's twice today that my favorite war films have taken a beating. Oof!

Even though it's the best movie ever made?

I'm with you on the first half of the sentence, but STRONGLY disagree with on the back half.

Band of Brothers is worth it alone for the interviews with vets. War stays with a person forever. It affects their children and their children's children. The interviews helped show that.

Everybody calm down I wrote that post quickly and meant to say Saving Private Ryan. You can't blame me for getting them mixed up.

That statement took effect fast.

Well. You're wrong about Saving Private Ryan, but then I seem to be in the minority here who think it's a great film. You're still very very wrong about Apocalypse Now.

Star Wars I'm less a fan of, although I would defend in for its use of special effects. Very impressive in 1977, in addition to the fact that it spawned a few Lucas companies that specialize in effects today.


yah thats probs my feeling on it. the fifth one is pretty good but i wasn't taken with the story.
I actually consider a lot of movies to be life-changing! I take them to my heart and they melt into my personality.
