    'Superbad' was really bad. I have no idea why people liked it.

    The Deer Hunter. Apart from the Russian roulette film, it was boring.

    And to reverse the thread a bit, a film I love that everyone hates is The Phantom Menace. I hate the other two prequel films but I loved Episode 1. Up there with A New Hope and Empire!

    It's slow and uneventful in parts but I still loved it. Beautifully shot and acted.

    I was riveted the whole time, and thought the tension in that scene would kill me too. Going in, I thought I'd be bored out of my mind for three hours. Perhaps knowing that nowhere Pennsylvania community drew me in. :)
    I think I'd watched this, Taxi Driver and Raging Bull all in brief time span, and couldn't believe they were all DeNiro.

    Yeah, it's weird how convincing yet different three characters could be in the space of 4 years. It's not like comparing Travis Bickle to Jimmy Conway, of course they'd be different. The Taxi Driver/Deer Hunter/Raging Bull run is amazing. A lot of Italian american actors are typecast, especially ones that work with the same directors a lot, but De Niro has never really had that problem.

    ugh...awful.
    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

    It's been a while since I've watched it but the only bits I remeber liking were the Russian roulette scene (which is a classic scene) and something about De Niro getting angry about some shoes.

    Incidentally, what's your favourite De Niro film?

    Probably Deer Hunter, but I'm not an aficionado.

    I remember the first time I saw that, one of my friends said "My god, how long are days in this movie!?!? It's been the same day for ages" And I was like "It's 2 hours. How long are your regular days?" :p
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

  • Deer Hunter is also incredibly over rated, other then the beautiful wedding scene and cinematography as well as the incredibly tense Russian roulette scene and also a thoroughly incredibly performance from Christopher Walken
