So, this past week, the missus and I bought a couple of movies which I had heard were total and complete shit and should stay away from. So why did I buy them, well because she made me. And what movies were they? The Da Vinci Code and The Brothers Grimm.
Now, I had heard nothing but a lot of bad reviews of The Da Vinci Code and a friend of mine told me the The Brothers Grimm was a complete bore and a waste of money. BUT GUESS WHAT!!!! I loved both of these films...especially The Brothers Grimm.
And it occured to me, while I was on the toilet, that my friends don't really know my taste in movies at all. They always tell me to stay away from movies I end up loving, and recomend movies I hate with a passion. Do your friends do this as well?
Here's a list:
Movies They Told Me To Avoid, But I Ended Up Loving The Chronicles of Riddick Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (which completely fuckin' baffled me since my friends are aware of my tastes in extreme horror) Kill Bill The Brothers Grimm The Skeleton Key The Village (the only M. Night Shamadamarama movie I like actually)
Movies They Recomended, And I Hated Donnie Darko Finding Neverland Coffee And Cigarettes Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead

Maybe he just doesn't like Jonny Depp. Anyways, what you do is you have your friends put the movies they recommend you either way, in a list on a piece of paper, then, with them standing there with you, you burn it.
I didn't like Brothers Grimm either, but that's only because my boyfriend was bitching the ENTIRE time I was watching it. I think if I watched it again without him I'd enjoy it more.
It's like watching the Matrix with an arrogant computer programmer/animator. "I can do that, I can do that, that's easy". Shithead.
Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose the former, and have seen no reason to change.
