Maybe not more, but some movies are up there. A lifetime of never getting to watch Better Off Dead again is enough to give me pause. No more Jackie Chan movies. No more Troma ****fests. No more spaghetti westerns and black and white samurai flicks. No more uber weird arthouse pieces. No more Ghibli movies, and Beautiful Dreamer, and Angel's Egg, and even ****ing MD Geist.

And The Warriors. Oh, **** The Warriors! I can't do this. It's like choosing which testicle to get chopped off.

This is why we vote off painting.

Some have entertainmed me enough, it's not that.
How often do you watch TV shows?

It used to be occasionally, but by now: Basically never.

So you haven't been following the second golden age of television? Maybe if you caught up a little you wouldn't be so against shows.

I’d imagine Bacon was an influence on Carpenter and especially Cronenberg.

I did watch some episodes of shows people were telling me to watch, but nothing stuck with me.

I gave these a shot: Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, and Mad Men. Nothing really stuck with me. I especially didn't like GOT and Boardwalk.

TV series are a huge time commitment. Didn't find one that convinced me to throw 10+ hours away just like that.

How many movies go on one average TV show? A lot.

Well there's your problem. Spread it out.

I do. Among many, many movies instead of a few TV shows. Ain't nobody got time for that ****.

I watched 10 hours of Game of Thrones to make a friend shut up about it. 10 hours! Very poor decision in hindsight. This is why I won't a TV show just because people say it's good. Fool me once, twice, ...
