Miscellaneous Movie Musings

Please allow me to briefly vent:

AAAAUGH! I hated DEATH PROOF! WOW did I hate it!

Okay, calming down now. Just got back from Grindhouse. I guess I'm just too old for this **** anymore. It isn't that I didn't "get it." I understood the in-jokes, the format, all of that. I even chuckled here and there. But my main thought as I left the theater was, wow, I guess I don't need to bother with Tarantino ever again. (Maybe not Rodriguez either.) Eliminate a few more points from my Guy's Guy scorecard, but this was nihilistic, boring and depressing to me. I suppose I ought to give specific reasons why, but I really don't want to waste more of my life thinking about it.

Maybe I should go watch The Night Porter instead.
