A Streetcar Named Desire
Have tried 3 or 4 times to watch it. Never made it past the 30 minute mark. What a boring movie.

...So? Who seduces who makes no difference lol. If they're both consenting then it really doesn't matter who started it.

Actually, you have it all backwards. Ben saw Elaine behind Mrs. Robinson's back. Completely different dynamic.
i like dr. strangelove. i like george c. scott's and slim pickens' roles in it the best, lol, but i watch it every chance i get
never knew that, thanks (and i thought i was a slow writer, lol... of course i haven't written a book yet either!)
i agree to the extent that the movie probably would have come across way better with a bunch of no-names, that way you don't get sucked into their other roles
There's a lot of movies that are regarded as classics but are hard to enjoy for most of us today because they are revered more for the techniques and technicalities than the movie itself.
That being said I still hate "Citizen Kane" as well as "Raging Bull".

+1. Lol
Gonna hafta agree to disagree on Bladerunner pardner. Hated it big time. But would love to hear opinions on how I'm wrong.
Actually, thanks for bringing this one up. I despise Kubrick's version of this movie - has nothing to do with the book, and is painful to watch....
yeah, i have to admit i didn't get it the first time i saw it either, but i was curious enough to read the book, the book explained the less clear parts of the story, so the second time i saw the movie i could relax and see the characters for what they were. basically harrison ford's character underwent a complete life-changing event regarding androids after he was almost killed by the last of the latest models, and he decided to run off with the lady who was the ultra-new prototype model, who he had been told was capable of true human feelings...
well, ok... i guess you had to be there, lol
WHAT???!! That's one of my favourite crime movies. I could get into a very long theoretical debate on all the many reasons The Godfather is an amazing movie. It's just a quality film. But to each their own...even though I think you're nuts
I've watched godfather for the first time this year. I just hated the entire movie and couldnt stand it. Rewatched star wars and Return of the Jedi and thought it was crap.
