Sometimes you just want a movie to enjoy, like free massage at the Venetian.
And don't underestimate the staying power of the gems like Dirty Harry and Die Hard! Great films? Fornicate, yeah! :)
Greatness should be defined as excellence at achieving the intended goal, not being able to subtly tickle some Cambridge pseudo-intellectual's ego. Ali was a great fighter, Feynman a great scientist, however different intellectually their respected pursuit might had been.
Waiting for my third DVD of Satantango, rediscovering the joy of watching the paint dry! :)
