: How about "Girl, Interrupted"? That one was pretty bad. I don't know why Angelina Jolie was nominated for a Golden Globe. It's the same shtick she's been doing since "Foxfire."
I haven't seen Interrupted yet. But if you want me to go off about bad movies, how about Happy, Texas. God, if that is the crap that's being picked up at Sundance now...I don't even know. And Sixth Sense. I know I'm in the minority and everyone from my friend to millions of people are telling me I'm an idiot and it's a good flick and all...but I just think M. Night Shylaman conned his way to the biggest screenwriter paycheck ever because 6th sense was a piece of crap IMHO. I have to see it again though, maybe it wasn't so bad. Ummmmmm, I didn't really dislike too many more movies this year; it was a pretty solid year as far as I'm concerned. I got a new Kevin Smith, a new Kubrick, a new PTA...all I need to see is Sweet & Downlow and as far as I'm concerned, the year 1999 will be complete (well, Topsy-Turvy too, I guess: Mad critical support and all).
On to 2000! Can't wait for The Beach, Oh Bro. where Art Thou, and Erin Brogkhvich or whatever the crap it is the new Soderbergh/Roberts collabo-thing. Not to mention MI2.
