Favorite movies of all time

I love Tarantino, but Pulp Fiction is one of my least favourite Tarantino films. It might be that I'd heard too many positive things about it, so I expected it to be more than it was, and was more disappointed than usual because of it.

I just don't get what you're on about half the time. My original post boiled down to this: I don't really enjoy Tarantino's movies because I don't click with his sensibilities as a director. Then you come in and I don't really get what the hell your beef even is half the time.

Maybe I'm just stupid. *Shrug*.

I agree with Mic 100% on Pulp Fiction.
Obviously I used to love it as a teenager but tried rewatching it a few years ago and had to turn it off because it was ****ing annoying and lame.

Can I get a show of hands from everyone that's surprised Mic dislikes Tarantino

When you spew contrarian opinions at the speed of light on just about every topic that's ever brought up, it gets to a point where people start to think you're just contrarian for the sake of it

It's pretty overrated but it's fun and there's a lot to appreciate about it. Overplay can kill most films I guess.

Should I provide you with a list of all the popular things that I do like?

I've explored music, games and movies obsessively for many years, so I'm naturally gonna have some idiosyncratic opinions about things. I'm also a person who has an uncommon perspective on the aforementioned forms of art, just as a result of my personality. I'm not really that critical, actually. Of the last many movies and CDs that I've gone through these past few months, I've liked the majority.
