People are just dumb.  I don't mean to be a snob or anything, but let's face it.  Most people on teh face of the earth are stupid.  Especially when it comes to movies.  

And the problem is, they have such dumb fucking opinions about why they hate movies.  I once had a guy (actually a good friend of mine, and not even that dumb of a guy) say he didn't like Edward Scissorhands because, and I quote: "It was a guy trying to eat without any hands.  What the fuck?"  I was just thinking about this, and if he didn't live three hours away from me, I would punch him.

Anyway, what's the stupidest argument you've ever heard from someone as to why they like or don't like a movie.

P.S. The other most annoying thing people do is, when you ask them why they liked and Adam Sandler film, they start doing impressions of him doing an obnoxious fucking voice.  As if that somehow justifies the fact that they like the movie.  Hey, I like several Adam Sandler movies, like Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, Airheads, Big Daddy, and Punch Drunk Love of course.  But when he just tries to make me hemmorage with an obnoxious retard voice, I just...I just...words fail me.

I've heard Wal mart is actually selling DVDs with sticker on them saying "No black bars at the top or bottom!  You get all the picture!"

I swear, a nuclear war is looking better every day.

It just pissed me off.

My mom is notorious for saying that films don't end right.  Like the end of Traffic or Chasing Amy, she got mad and said "It didn't end right!"

"PDL is just another Sandler-film"...........argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most of mine have to do with PDL, this thread is going to yield a lot of interesting stuff.

heres one that was pretty funny, in "the center of the world", during the sex scene, i heard a woman say "well, it SOUNDS real."

Coming out of BLADE II someone says "that was the best movie I've ever seen"

Magnolia "that was so stupid" - care to quantify? what makes it stupid?

but my favorite line of all time was said by a "friend" of a friend who during a serious movie discussion says "I hate movies that make you think" --- Da Dah! I am sure her favorite movie of all time is Scoobie Doo.

Oh, here's a recent conversation from school

"You know what movie was gay?"

"Which one?"

"Being John something.  It didn't make sense."

Swear to God:

When I first saw "Heathers," right after the croquet opening scene:

Heather: Heather, it's you're turn.
Heather: No, Heather, it's Heather's turn.

A few rows in front of my cousin and I, one older woman said to her friend, "They're all named Heather?"

In the row behind me during "The Hours": "Everyone's kissing in this movie."

After Solaris, some guy said "That was worse than Rollerball!" His girlfriend displayed a higher intellect by responding with, "well, I wouldn't go that far."

Twenty minutes into PDL, some girl behind me said "I hate this movie." Her boyfriend kept saying, "no, no it'll get better." He'd offer a strained laugh at anything that was remotely funny. I kinda felt sorry for him...he was trying so hard to enjoy the movie, but it was just over his head.

The second time I saw PDL, an older couple in front of me both fell asleep on each other's shoulders, and then later woke up and walked out. Another older couple, after the movie was over, said "Well, I'm never going to trust another review in THAT newspaper! They made this sound like it would be GOOD!"
