Well the other thing I should say about the Exorsist, other than that I fell asleep halfway through, is that the concept of devil possession does not scare me. Any other kind of horror movie gives me nightmares, but not that kind. Can't remember the name of the one I went to see (and didn't fall asleep in because I wasn't nearly as tired, but still bored) about the antichrist or whatever, but I was very 'meh' about that one, too. I think it was All Souls. That sounds right. I'd say that in order to be afraid of devil possession you have to believe in the devil/demons/hell... but then why do I find zombie movies scary? I always have dreams about being trapped somewhere with bodies pummelling against the building after I see a zombie movie. That single-minded violence and hunger is scary... and that does exist, even if the undead don't. Okay, so that makes sense as to why they freak me out. A concept has to scare you in order to be scary. A concept has to seem real in order to scare me. The Exorsist did not scare me. All Souls did not scare me. I haven't seen, like, the Omen or any of those countless others about the devil, but I don't imagine I would find those anything but totally unbelievable and dull, dull, dull. Some things I just can't suspend disbelief for. Even if I look at that kind of thing as our own inner demons, or good vs evil, or whatever, it's still just meh because it seems so over the top.
I don't watch many horror movies. I don't really like being terrified, but at least it beats being bored.
That was a longer explination than I had planned on. Oh well.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Once I got the director's cut, and accepted that the movie Kingpin wasn't super-strong, I found it to be a most affecting piece of film-making.

I liked DareDevil too, Chris!
Have yet to see the Director's Cut, though.

Star Wars Episode I-III
All in all, superfluous kiddie-crap. Granted, the old trilogy had elements of a children's film as well, but not to that ridiculous extent. The love scenes are pathetic - I was constantly scratching my head watching them.

I think if the director's cut was the one released in theaters, they would've done 2 more. I have a friend that HATED Daredevil, but LOVED the director's cut. Yeah, it's that much different.

Here's two for ya'll- the Hulk and Epic Movie
The former wasn't so much bad as I felt it didn't do justice to the comics or anything else... and the actual Hulk was showed for maybe fifteen minutes throughout.
The latter though... oh-ho-ho, that is two hours of my life thar I'll never get back. I wanted to gouge out my eyes throughtout the whole thing... but didn't do it, cuz I would still have to hear it, but I'd be blind. Absolute rubbish- riding on the coattails of Scary Movie 4. The Scary Movie series was funny stupid, while Epic Movie was just plain stupid. And it wasn't even all that funny.
Having fun yet?

1. Judge Dredd. Completely missed all the dark humourous nuances of the comic strip. And you shouldn't ever see his face.
2. War of the Worlds (1956). Gratuitously relocated from Victorian England to 50s US. Seen as a classic but enormously overrated IMO. I've never seen the Tom Cruise effort, but the idea sounds just as bad too. Martians don't really work in a modern context. There was a version with a period setting but that is supposed to be really awful as well. Better off with Jeff Wayne's musical version 2CD. A rock classic.
