Griffith
With the streak of a tear, Like morning dew
Deci said:It's surprisingly refreshing actually. I pretty much expect every movie I watch to suck, so if it's even the slightest bit entertaining then I have a good time.
I don't want to re-enter the Watchmen fray (I have nothing nice to say), but I would like to friendly address this rather strange statement. That your supposed pessimism, which actually implies lofty standards as you believe most fare will fall below them, somehow makes you appreciate those things which fail to meet those standards. A dubious claim indeed, as not only is it contradictory, but you'd actually have us believe that your standards cause your standards to lower below your own standards! Whew. Anyway, you're trying to have it both ways, and mixing up low expectations with low standards themselves. Or, in other words, it's a nice way of saying you like crap. =)
Nothing to be ashamed of though; after all, you're talking to the man considering a treatise on the intangibles of Resident Evil 4.
