  4. Speed Racer is amazing.

    The haters can all go watch gay cowboys eating pudding in their movies.

    So you want "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" to bring in more money than Terminator? You'd have an easier time breaking the second law of thermodynamics.

    And there is more to it than that. "Good" movies have lower budgets due to their very nature. The more money you dump into a movie, the bigger a risk it becomes. The bigger a risk it becomes, the more you counteract by playing it safe. They safer you play it, the more the art suffers. No matter what previous ticket sales say, you're just not going to find an intellectually challenging movie with a $180 million budget. They need to be certain that they will make that money back. They only way to do that is if it doesn't confuse or bore Bubba.

    Dumb movies have their place, of course, but why you would want to see a movie just for the a'splosions when it is over two hours long
    Bring junk food. Pee when they talk. It's great fun.
    and doesn't make sense.
    Lol.
    A movie theater doesn't have a fast forward button.
    But they do have a snack counter and bathroom. See above.

    And you don't need the fast-forward on the first watch anyway. The slack-jawed "newness" factor takes care of most of that.

  8. I felt that my bed hair, teddy bear, X-Men comic book and sliver of gut was a good indicator of my authority on matters.

    No, but I would like a new Terminator movie to be at least as good as the other Terminator movies.

    You need a young Arnold and that Cameron dude for that.

    And even then the old Terminator movies were still nonsense stories stringing together action scenes (and occasional comedy bits). The formula for "bad" blockbuster movies hasn't changed too much since Arnold assaulted bad guys with one-liners and Bruce Willis fucked shit up. It's just that Arnold went away and Bruce got old.
