To respond to the OP, I do this kind of thing all the time. The first half of my life was spent rabidly consuming films in England/Wales; the second half was spent in the southern States (still rabidly consuming films). I learned a lot. Many of my understandings of films and the USA as a whole were altered. A big one was frat parties. I didn't think frat parties were really as epic and raucous as they pretended in the movies. Then I attended one...

The movie industry thinks you are, though. I remember finding a copy of Millions (Danny Boyle) in Blockbuster soon after moving to the States. Apparently y'all would be so confused about those weird pieces of paper with the old lady on them in a film called Millions, they had to throw some dollars in the mix. This was also presumably designed to trick those Americans who staunchly refuse to consume foreign films, kinda like when trailers for non-English speaking films have zero dialogue and lots of whacky hijinx.

Well shit. I tried to watch Jupiter Ascending a week or so ago and couldn't make it past 30 minutes. I watch a lot of shitty films, and have a boner for Channing Tatum, and this one beat me. I turned to my husband and said, "I don't think I can watch this." I was honestly on the verge of a panic attack.

Goodness.

1981 is my favourite year for film. I'm glad it has yet to be soiled.

^ I came here to pose this very question. They don't even say Thewlis's name. Not once. It's as if he doesn't exist. This was a real bummer for me. I eagerly awaited stories of how his arrival affected that clusterfuck.

I love the fact that Rob Schneider's two films are his two Stallone flicks. What was up with those two anyway?

You forgot #Sylvester

June is making sure that Monkey Shine's getting paid. <-- Too good for us. We are not worthy.

^ It is The Return. I never managed to get through it, but if it's worse than Day of Reckoning then it sounds impressive. I imagine it has induced fewer epileptic fits, at least.

I think all of this happened for a reason. I'm keeping it. It is a gift to myself, to my future grandchildren.

I just ordered this on blu...without checking Youtube. BUT! I have been trying to find this film for years, and so I do not regret this purchase. I am sure it will be well worth my time. I mean, the book is fantastic. (Also, first post).
