but there are the rare cases when you get good stuff. I mean, I loved GONY, and LOTR triligy is pretty good. Just promise me if you do make it big, you'll make good movies.
: : the first time. Damn the studio system all you want, but occasionally they turn out first rate stuff. Just goes to show you, that you can never underestimate the human element.
: : : for the first time. I don't know why I haven't watched it before. I was looking through my video collection and thought I'd watch something I hadn't seen before, this jumped out at me for some reason. This is one of the best movies I have ever seen, it's just so damn sad.. I mean, I imagine it'd have more of an emotional effect on me if it was made during 'my time'.. But it was still an incredible flick.

: But the shit they churn out today is just dribble. I could hand my 10 year old brother a laptop and he'd write a script better than the shit they put out 80% of the time. Well.. I mean, there is Biker Boyz.. I suppose you're right.
