Smallville's "Grinds my Gears" thread
Basically, I am going to use this thread to vent. Why? Because I want to. There is a lot that I want to get off my chest, and it seems that voicing one's opinions to total strangers via the internet is the wave of the future, so why not join the public en masse?
Anyways, first installment.
It has been some time since I have watched a movie that has totally captivated me. I mean, from beginning to end, totally just grabbed me by the sack and did not let go. There have been many releases lately that have been apparent "must see movies," but I disagree.
A lot of people around my camp have told me, "Transformers 2 was awesome!" It was nothing more then an excuse for Michael Bay to digitally make things go boom, and crash. "Dude, the Hangover is the funniest movie ever." Apparently, "Dude, Where's My Car 2" was lost in translation for me.
Movies have gone the way of the video game; more concerned with how visually compelling something is as opposed to making the audience actually care about story and characters.
And that is what "grinds my gears."
... for those who are interested, yes, I had picked a different title, but since this is a PG-13 site, I went with something a little less profane.

Oh, look at you trying to be all hip and 'down the internet kids'. Do you think that by saying no one really cares, you're automatically boosted to the upper echelons of KMC coolness? Wrong. You apparently have an attitude problem.

I didn't 'diss' you, I pointed out how unnecessarily rude you were being. Because you were, if you read the first post again and your reaction to it you'll see what I mean.

Saw it. It was good, but Christian Bale is not right for Bruce Wayne/Batman. Also, the storyline of Harvey becoming Two-Face was skewed too far. Same issue with X-Men origins, which I did not like.

No, I didn't. I do all I can to avoid any movie he has a part in.

Then don't read what I post.

Glad to know you are entertained by drivel. Congratulations. The fact that you have to be high in order to be entertained by movies proves my point for me.

Oh, you guys.
And Scarlet Fox, you're welcome to your opinions. Just as I am welcome to tell you when you're being unnecessarily rude
