Darvlay and HoH didn't like it because all those big, muscular, sweaty men made them feel like fat, lazy slobs.
Watched Spiderman on tv last night for the first time--very enjoyable! (Perhaps the wet t-shirt scene was gratuitous.) I hear they get better, too.

Originally posted by LennyBruceIt is personal opinion what films people like or dislike, which can stem from a number of factors (e.g. cultural understanding, personal experiences, etc).
Some people like to criticize things everyone else likes because they think it makes them look cool and smarter than the rest of us. Just look at the people on this thread that said 300 sucked, you'll see my point.
Although you did say that some people will criticize things everyone else likes because it makes them look cool and smarter (which might be the case in some circumstances), you still directed that towards specific people, which I think is unjustified.
EDIT: It was even mentioned that "300" was bad before others in the thread mentioned it was good. 😛

just that I'm so turned off by the story I'm afraid it will colour the whole
experience for me. Plus, I've never been much for movies with excessive
battle scenes and visual effects for the effects themselves. It's just... boring
and tedious and I invariably fall asleep in the midst of things. 😞
Originally posted by Bosse de NageI was a bit disappointed. It's one of those films that you'd enjoy a whole lot more if you haven't seen the trailer. Most of Frank Miller's best artwork was already shown in it...
