…where I think “Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle” is better than “The Village?”
I’ve watched 2 movies in the last 2 days; both of which have been stated above. The Village sucked. I wasn’t so disappointed last night right after I watched it, but the more I think about it, the more I feel like I just got duped out of 2 hours of my life. It’s built up to be this crazy horror movie, and it never gets there. Then there’s this twist at the end (which I predicted about 30 min into the movie) that totally ruins it. Complete and utter shit.
Tonight, I figured what the hell and saw Harold and Kumar. Now of course this is your average stoner comedy, but somehow during those 4 years of college I grew fond of them. Maybe it brings back all kinds of good memories. Maybe I am just so childish that I still think these types of stupid humor movies are funny. Either way, I laughed my ass off.
Now look at my opinions of those movies. The “summer blockbuster” just got its ass kicked by the “stoner flick.” Something is very wrong here. Some crappy, half-assed, eigth grade material is gonna make millions at the box office this week. While the truely entertaining movie won’t even get a mention. Strange but true.
I’m way too tired to go on right now, so instead I’m going to catch some shut eye and maybe I’ll post something more tomorrow.
Actually, the truly entertaining movie IS the Village. The only reason, it seems, that you didn’t like it is because it wasn’t exactly what your preconceived notion of it was. Look at it without your tainted views of it having to be a horror movie and you’ll realize it was a well made film.
As for stoner flicks…. never much cared for them myself. I’d rather just hang around stoner friends and get the real deal
The Village is based off of a romance novel. You did get duped if you thought you were going to see a horror flick. :p
