Tuesday, May 13, 2008 Another forgettable 100-list POST A COMMENT I'm a pseudo-film-buff, but never had a favorite film...I am a student of film - (even went to film school)...I watch a film a day (some days two)...'And as a general rule - (with few exceptions) - I'll never watch the same film twice (once is more than enough, thank you)... so, I'm simply amazed at people who make lists of the top 100 (gotta have a-lot-ta free time on your hands for such non-sense): 1- Casablanca: please, number one? Barely remember what it was about... 2- There will be Blood: haven't seen it yet. 3- ET: The Extra Terrestrial: nice effects, but glad his ass finally went home... 4- Chinatown: Jack was okay, story was full of drama queens... 5- The Shinning: Jack was great...slow pacing, borderline-pretentious most flew right over my head. 6- Vertigo: Okay, this was a popcorn flick... 7- KES: wha...? Never heard of it. 8- Sunset BLVD: never saw it. 9- ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND: It was okay, but very forgettable. 10- THE GODFATHER: Barely remember it...Brando was good in it. Don't get me wrong, I love the act of watching new movies; eat 'em up...good, bad...and especially ugly messes...but, it's mainly a throwaway, none stick to me....Guess, my list...if I wasted time making one...would be what I saw that week - (and didn't fall asleep).
