Do I even like movies?

[meatball]

The first couple of times I saw it, yeah.  Good times.  I'm glad it's a part of my film knowledge.  I just don't want/need to own the movie.

Absorb, then abandon.

[Alethia]

The Crying Game, Platoon, Lawrence of Arabia, North by Northwest, The Untouchables, American Graffiti, Deer Hunter and The Exorcist.

sacreligious.

[SiliasRuby]

Deja Vu.

[w/o horse]

The only one I'll miss is the Crying Game, which my small print clearly said will be purchased again in collector's edition form.

The rest are a combination of not good, overrated, and only marginally entertaining.  In the case of Platoon, American Graffiti, Deer Hunter, and the Exorcist - all of the above.

What kind of film snobs are you guys anyway?  The classics are meant to be questioned.  You guys are like a group of conservatives calling the critiquing of government policies un-patrioitic.

That goes for the two who have already spoken, and those who wish to speak after.  The defense rests.

Oh, yes, I'm the snob. I didn't give sell away "classics" for movies with subtitles.

wow, could u be any more psycho? yeah, a few ppl jokingly object to a few movies on personal grounds probably, and u make huge assumptions about everyone else?

u better cut back on the generalizations and need to make everyone a "snob" (a word u seem to be obsessed with) before u go the way of neatahwanta.

Look I was using snob as a compliment, or rather the lack of snobbery as an insult.

Also, there were many non-classics in the group I sold.  Do you think maybe I own more that I like?

Also, it is only coincidence that most of the movies I got for the trade-in are subtitled (don't know if you noticed The Third Man or not), seeing as how they are all, with the exception of Shoot the Piano Player, expensive, three of them Criterion and one a box set.  I bought Shoot the Piano Player because I already own The Breakfast Club.

Now go count your goddamn dvd collection and stop being a fucking ass about these non-important issues.

I've used the word snob twice here, I think.  That is pretty excessive.  And both times it was meant in a light-hearted, playful fashion.

Generalizations?

Pretty sure I was clearly only talking to two people and a party of people yet to be decided.

[modage]

27 > 9 movies?  i think you got a raw deal.

u've only been posting, what, a week? apart from this latest example:

What kind of film snobs are you guys anyway?  

in ur crash review:

Just to be sure, I brought along the old parental unit (impervious to artfilm snobbery and a glutton of hype)

and on ur second day of posting, from the Criterion news thread:

Can a film snob give me a Hoop Dreams overview?

so yeah u do seem a bit obsessed with the word. besides, the joke is on u. no one has been talking seriously here, no one is attacking u as personally as u seem to be attacking everyone else. that makes u a psycho, sumone with a neatahwanta-level of unfounded hostility.

clearly u havn't been around long enuff to know who, if anyone, is a snob. yet u continue to generalize:

That goes for the two who have already spoken, and those who wish to speak after.

Pretty sure I was clearly only talking to two people and a party of people yet to be decided.

"part of ppl yet to be decided"? so, basically, anyone who replies to u. hmm, is that a generalization that could potentially include everyone? yeah. take ur own advice, dude. relax, and

stop being a fucking ass.

[Gold Trumpet]

who gives a shit

[w/o horse]

Okay but what you still don't seem to be getting is that I think the word "snob" is funny, as many people think the word "core" is funny.

But yeah.  I was taking things personally.  A man's movie collection should be not talked about, much like the Mrs.

[modage]

your Mrs. sucks cocks in hell.  

[MacGuffin]

modage's DVDs are so retarded, they really are special eds.
