I didn't make you do anything, you only have yourself to blame for being so indecisive! *blows raspberry* I can honestly say i have either never seen any of your films, or i hate them (Stars wars! but they made us watch it at school for a little stint of films studies and i hated school so it could just be negative memories from that time). But at least they're not as bad as _stevie_jay_ braveheart i mean that sucked so much, his accent alone made me laugh ( ... )

Yeah. Actually, I hated "Braveheart." Not only was his accent terrible, but, omg! it was stupid movie ( ... )

see...i have inner catholic issues, i hate when people say anything bad about practices in the church. i hate the rules of the church, and i pretty much think the practices are wrong, but i tend to argue with the TV when people say things about it. I wish i wasn't like that, and i try not to be, as i know that my church and particularly the christian church as a whole, causes most if not all the world's problems. My philosophy lecturer was a catholic, he's athiest now, but when we were studying the politics of the catholic church whenever he said something bad about the church he would cringe a little and say 'once a catholic always a catholic' and that totally sums me up. So i wouldn't watch that film i dont think ( ... )

Bit of a cheesy ending though.

Aw, I thought the ending was perfect. With them dancing together. In the open. Unafraid. :sighs:

Hmm. The whole thing about the movie "Priest." It's about reform. And what's right. And Father Greg, the main priest, is very pro-Catholicism. It's not anti-Catholicism at all. It talks about the good and the bad. And it's very compassionate. Give it a try. Although, it made me very nervous and had me pacing the room. That was a good way to watch it, pacing. I highly recommend that.

Hi :D I wandered in...hope you don't mind. You have AWESOME taste in films. I can't believe you listed City of Lost Children, it's one of my favorite films of all time!

And I LOVE Singing in the Rain, The Dark Crystal, The Star Wars Trilogy, and Nightmare Before Christmas. I haven't seen the others, but based on your other taste, I'll be sure to check them out!

Heh, why thank you :feels cocky:

People didn't like my "Star Wars" choice, but fuck them, you either appreciate the awesomeness of "Star Wars" or you don't.

And "City of Lost Children" is spectacular. I just re-watched it this morning and was blown away, again. Because it's fucking funny, but really damn creepy. And Ron Perlman is adorable in it, with his choppy, second-grade French. Plus, the little girl who plays Miette is gorgeous and little Denree is so cute (I normally hate child actors).

Have you seen "Tarnation" yet? It's a documentary about this guy who loves his crazy mother so much. It's amazing. Took him 20 some years to make and he spliced/edited it on his imac (hurrah for macs!)

I love to chat films. Sorry, I'm a big geek. Thanks for responding!
