I have two best friends that like to watch movies like me, but because of various issues, it's always hard to find time to watch movies with them. That is until we become roommates last year. I had always talked about Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli movies to them and was excited to show some to them starting with Spirited Away. Biggest regret in my life. ok, that's an exaggeration lol. But damn they don't appreciate the movie at all. it's too weird, too creepy, it's cartoonish. sigh. I stopped watching Ghibli movies with them after that. We still watched other movies but I now hesitate to share any 'weird' movies with them anymore

This actually makes me better understand why so many movies that I like best aren't the most popular films. It might be that my tastes are not so unique after all. it may just be that I don't prefer the kinds of movies that people love to watch in groups as much as the ones that are better suited for self-introspection. Why weren't more of my favorite films blockbusters? Possibly it's just because people don't like grabbing a bunch of their friends, buying multiple movie tickets together, and crowding into theaters for movies that actually make you think.

I randomly watched No Country For Old Men alone, on tv. It traumatised me in some way I did not expect but I loved the movie!
My brain stored this dark memory in a mystery box until one day, when I was watching Eat Pray Love. I just couldn't shake this inexplicable baaaad feeling about that guuuy lol!
I didn't know Javier Bardem at all, so I had to google him and my heart just sank when I read the words 2007: No Country For Old Men
Whew!
It hit me like a brick!
Aannnd now I need to watch it again. Cool.

Good point for the most part. I believe it also helps to watch in a theater and I know, I know, its expensive to go nowadays. But if you're spending that kind of money, you'd better sit there and watch. However, if you're at home and watching practically free digital downloads, you tend to care less, knowing that if it doesn't intrigue you and especially your friends in the first 10mins, you might as well switch to something else.

Whoever this narrator is, he should think about doing voiceovers for everything. Most announcer types have something off-putting or completely repugnant about their voice. I find nothing to fault with this person - no lisp, no disgusting excess saliva sounds, no mispronounced words, etc. - which is unusual and refreshing.

I definitely agree with watching any Hayao Miyazaki films alone. I only watch those alone, as the storylines are so beautiful and pronounced. The sound tracks are always magnificent as well, so being alone and in a quiet place whole watching his movies is really a whole new experience

The horrible ending of No Country for Old Men makes it unwatchable for a second time. I wish I hadn't seen it the first time. It's not the worst movie to win best picture (The English Patient) but it is bad storytelling. Bad endings lead to bad storytelling. Just ask Game of Thrones.

As an engineer, the inaccuracies in the movie Gravity were too much and distracted at such a severe level that it was impossible for me to enjoy the movie. Despite what the majority thinks, I genuinely dislike this movie severely and I was looking forward to watching this movie.
