Batman films for **** sake Watching comic strip films is something you grow out of in your early 20s, like taking drugs and caring about fashionable clothes.
Batman for ****'s sake. Do you run around with you cape on when you watch it for the 83rd time sonny? I was into Batman when I was 3 for ****'s sake. Grow up you immature little runt of a ****.
Wait till they get on to Captain America. Probably still ****ing over the Marvel magazines. Gambol is 50 next year for ****'s sake.
The Dark Knight is a good film. The Dark Knight Rises was absolutely ****ing awful. I'm not averse to watching films on the basis of their pretext. I've even been known to watch those sophisticated films you both like of men in glasses in black and white falling over. I've seriously never met someone who didn't rate Pulp Fiction. But still, I'm sure you'll both tell me why Groucho fannying about in front of a mirror was much better.
Pulp Fiction is a classic example of style over content. It's no more complex than yer average Laurel & Hardy film yet people fawn all over it because some film critics spunked their load over it when it was released. At least Laurel and Hardy is funny.
Slapstick; the lowest form of humour. Next the auld duffers will be telling us vaudeville is the greatest entertainment medium to have existed.
At least it's unpretentious which is more than you can say about Tarantino and his ****e rip offs of other people's films.
Pacino was a fine actor when he was young (Godfather, Dog Day Afternoon, Serpico) but then turned into a shouty over acting twat.
I don't mind Tarantino's films, as long as you take them as popcorn films rather than with any real artistic merit. You attend the theatre so I don't think you can seriously ridicule any other entertainment as pretentious when it's the most up it's own arse of the lot.
I'm not sure that he didn't just choose better movies. I seem to remember him shouting through the entirety of Serpico.
