OK- I’ll just post. The opening scene- driving into the wilderness/mountains to find the tree- there’s no terrain like that anywhere near the Chicago suburbs. When Clark gets combative on the road with the rednecks in the beat up truck- not smart to do things like this with your family in the...

I don’t know how to use the spoiler tag

I like this film less with each viewing. There are a bunch of things wrong with the opening scene where the family goes to get the tree.

I wasn’t crazy about the film either.

Pluto Nash and Love Guru are just dreadful.

Avatar is one of my first BluRay purchases- I figure it would be a good demonstration of what improvements BluRay has over DVD. I watched 45-50 minutes, then gave up- couldn’t hold my interest. Don’t know if I’ll ever give it another try.

Yes most have tastes/likes/dislikes that are fluid. My example of this is The Big Lebowski. The first time I watched it, I didn’t like it a little bit, largely due to my comparing it to the Coens preceding film- Fargo.

Swedish film, right?

About a scene or film that’s so creepy or cringe-inducing- my inclusion is The Vanishing (Jeff Bridges, Kiefer Sutherland). What happens to Kiefer’s character near the end is something I don’t need to watch again.

Agree with your take. I also have seen it only once, and what I took away from the film is it’s a depressing film, until the last reel. I also agree with your take on Independence Day- started off good, then quickly became crap.

Hard to disagree with your take on The Usual Suspects. I recently bought the UHD, after not having seen the film in a very long time. I couldn’t even make it to the end- I didn’t know what I ever saw in it. Didn’t deserve its 2 Oscars (one of the biggest injustices in Oscar history is Spacey...

Off the top of my head- A Time To Kill- a very bad dating experience with taking a woman to see this one. It might be a fine film, but it brings up terrible memories Requiem For A Dream- just no fun to watch. The poster board for depression. It would be the right film to show to a young...
