    pffaw.

    Taking the 'moral high ground' is just as bad as attacking the man.

    You have just failed to back up your statements with facts - or even a more detailed explanation other than your unfuounded accusations about critics.

    The fact remains that even though some of the films you mentioned were good films - they are only enjoyable by certain people. Most of the world won't get them. Period.

    I watched Ghost World - and I thought it was a long, boring drawn out cynical nihilistic movie.

    You would think LOTR would be a movie snob's wet dream - the Director of Meet The Feebles somehow manages to helm the greatest cinematic undertaking ever based upon arguably the best fantasy book ever.

    It's not like a bunch of heads sat around and said "Ok, ho can we most effectively hit our target market 16-30 year old males with a sweeping 3 movie, 20+ DVD set"

    I think maybe you should watch a little of the supplemental stuff on the DVD and then see if you still agree that it's a lowest-common-denominator holloywood market piece of crap.

    Frodo lives!
