I think it is the adjective-- because they get closer and closer to each other. I also think that I can't deal with abhorrent characters. I also disliked Taxi Driver (not that they are at all the same kind of film).
Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Some of the effects stuff was beautiful.
I spent the bulk of the movie wanting to smack the lead character around until he stopped being such a whiny little brat
But yes OH MY GOD STOP CRYING.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Pretty sure that was the intended effect. He's not supposed to be a guy you admire.

I didn't need him to be admirable. I needed him to be someone I didn't want to strangle.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That's the sort of woolly-headed liberal thinking that leads to being eaten.

Don't listen to him. He's just trying to fleece you.

I just enjoy hearing the lamb-entations of the pun averse.
