Re: Rate the last movie you watched.

Yeah, that's why she broke through with Manny & Lo, right? She was just casted for being sexy.

I have no problem with people stating their opinions in film, in fact, I love it. Scroll up and read your posts... "Hate it" and a bunch of other ignorant comments about cinematography... when you know nothing about the sort! I laugh at the fact that you ask LadySilver if IRON MAN is a better film than THE INCREDIBLE HULK... yet here you are hating on PAUL THOMAS ANDERSON?? Go watch a Michael Haneke film, who doesn't cast any sexy actresses... NAOMI WATTS??

She was always a pretty girl, and we all know that Hollywood likes cute kids (think home alone, Christian Bale, etc.) That means nothing here.

Perhaps you are right, my comments are very ignorant, from now on I will step back to my "ignorance" square and try to share my views with the rest of the bumpkins, since my opinions haven't reached your film expert's elite status. Perhaps one day I will be invited to your movie critic VIP lounge.

Those movies are pure entertainment and I don't mind them to be as such. Apparently Michael Haneke has been your favorite weapon against me, I fail to see how you plan to provoke me with your reference to him, but if it amuses you please do go on.

As for Naomi Watts, whatever your silly crying emoticon means, she is refreshingly talented as well as strikingly beautiful. If your point is that he cast her partially due to her looks, perhaps it's so, but she is an excellent actress nevertheless so it doesn't hurt. If you mean that she is talentless, then go watch another one of Adam Sandler's movies, I would particularly suggest "The Waterboy," really fascinating stuff. Who can miss the delicate transition of a twit actor to a serious role of some degenerate who is cleverly cast in a philosophical movie to give him an aura of significance which so many people are quick to concede. I mean, it's so original...Bill Murray, Tom Hanks, Jim Carrey, Ben Stiller don't really count.

Yeah, you're right, it was so well received because she's a cute kid.

I highly doubt this.

Naomi Watts is beautiful and a very talented actress. What I meant was, the only director I have heard you rave about was Haneke -- a man who remade his own film and casted a beautiful actress. Nice move.

Oh, and LOL @ you missing the point. When did I say I liked Punch-Drunk Love because of Adam Sandler? Maybe you didn't know but he's one of those actors I can't stand. I believe I said I like the film because of PTA!

Perhaps the reason we had this little argument is because you have not stated any opinions.

Last time I checked, "Hate it" is not a good enough opinion for a film. I mean, unless your 12 years old.

IF I haven't stated any opinions, what do you classify my posts as, facts? I am truly flattered.

Last time you checked? Where exactly did you check may I ask? Perhaps it was the "Opinions Encyclopedia?" I admit I haven't laid my eyes on one of those, maybe you can post a link to the resource, I'd like to have a look.

"Hate it" is a valid emotion as well as a solid opinion. Now if you want me to elaborate further, you can just ask and I will make it more thrilling for you. Nevertheless, "hated it" works very well for me.

See, that's where your wrong.

I'm not trying to get into a fight with you so hear me out. How about next time, you don't quote every film I watch and reply with the word HATE. How about, you say...

"I didn't enjoy this film because..."

It would also help having legitimate reasons. Maybe because you hate Adam Sandler, it automatically made you hate PDL. But if you're so concerned with cinematography, filmmaking, etc. then maybe you should realize it's a good film in that sense.

I am glad you see it my way, a little late but acceptable.

I think I made my point about Watts very clear. I understood your intention of taking a jab at Haneke by referencing an actress he cast partially due to her looks. Just because he is the only director I raved about doesn't mean I don't have any others. I happen to love his work, as he stands out in a very unique way. He doesn't direct beautiful films, just as Dostoevsky didn't write romantic prose, but he is brilliant. It's true there are a lot more contemporary directors I dislike than the ones I like.

By the way, this is probably very ignorant as well, but I simply cannot appreciate a movie if the acting is revolting. Bad actors can quickly spoil the most fantastic movie, but good ones can save a pretty mediocre film.

Anyway, you are not really interested in my peasant views.

Are we fighting? I find this rather amusing.

Give me one good reason why I should be the one to conform to your conditions? Could this possibly be my free pass to your elite VIP square? How about I name my terms in return?

I'll much sooner renounce my interest in films than realize that PDL is a good film in any sense.

The word I'm looking for is sarcasm. Google.

That's not ignorant, acting is very essential to film, obviously and I completely agree. Although this further proves why you dislike PDL; the fact that you hate Adam Sandler.

Have it your way.

That's exactly it, you have an interest in film. You're clearly acting like you know so much more than everyone else but you don't. I'm not acting like I do but I'm forced to prove you wrong on certain things.

It's obvious you are too stupid (I could have used a better word but chose not to) because you're one dimensional when it comes to viewing films.

Sarcasm was in return for sarcasm, google it yourself.

Nowhere in posts did I imply or state directly that I was highly knowledgeable about film. Apparently, for some, in order to express ones opinion about any film one must be highly qualified, otherwise his/her opinion is considered to be ignorant and idiotic. I never forced you to agree with me.

This is where our exchange ends. You can be as rough as you want, but one thing I don't appreciate is a crude remark such as "you're stupid." Very unexpected coming from a person who finds remarks such as "Hated it" childish and inappropriate.
