I am very leery of the Hollywood machine

and the movies they mass produce. For this reason I often prefer foreign films myself. I rented RGM because of the good reviews (and Anne Hathaway) and just hoped it would be enjoyable. I liked it because of the reasons I mentioned and was not surprised to find an average story with average writing but was surprised that the wedding party held some interest for me and wanted to share that fact in this forum because, I expect, most would not watch it otherwise.

For me this forum is more about recommendations and less about debating film merit. I am fully aware a lot of you do not share my views but will post them because there may be some who want to see a movie for the same reasons I do.

FWIW I embrace the fact that we all have opinions and voice them freely and have learned much from yourself Tin, and others who take the time to share.

thanks

Phil

apologize if I've offended you. I am very opinionated, sure, but all I say applies only to me. I like debating, too, but I try not to be offensive. I really do.
You're one of the guys who make this place fun to visit. Post more!

  My comments were not directed towards anyone in particular.
  
  And to be perfectly clear both Vicky Cristina Barcelona and Rachel Getting Married are marginal recommendations where I choose to overlook their faults and enjoy myself.
  
  Then again if I had the choice to see only one more viewing of Citizen Kane or Blazing Saddles I would have to think long and hard to decide. I am that dedicated to (admitedly mindless) fun as well as a quality cinema experience.
  
  here's to good friends tonight is kind of special... tra la la
  
  thanks
  
  Phil
