***I don't know why you guys bother to watch movies at all.

I don't know whom you mean by "you guys". I am sure AuPh knows why he watches. I do too. clark does. So do many others. If you mean the guy who called it the worse stinker in 20 years, then you should probably ask him.

To answer you other question - Solaris to many of us represents the finest in movie making. As such we - some of us, anyway - treat it with special respect. Like many other fine movies of that caliber.

So when the news hit about the director many of us consider very lame (can't think on a single movie he made that I liked) taking his shot, plus with the actor some of us consider very lame too, that naturally created negative expectation. It would be different if a good director decided to do so.

I am glad you liked it.
