Can Amelie from Montmartre be considered mainstream? [/ QUOTE ] Yes. It can also be considered awesome. I heartily disagree with you on this one, though I can see how this is a love it or hate it kind of movie.

i think david mamet has a tendency to fall in love too much w/ his own dialogue... [/ QUOTE ] AHAHAAH! This is so true. I rented "Spartan" the other day because I thought "Oh! Something by Mamet that I haven't seen." The dialogue was so [censored] self-conscious that the movie was almost unwatchable.

[ QUOTE ] I hate Fight Club. Mostly just because of how many people love it though, and how 98% of them misinterpret the ending. [/ QUOTE ] For those of us dumb enough to like it, could you explain the ending? [/ QUOTE ] fight club is one of my favorites. Found this link interesting

American Beauty [/ QUOTE ] XM Radio has a "soundtracks" music channel. They were playing American Beauty tunes and in between had snippets of dialogue. One of these interludes was the soliloquy by the "rebel teen" about the beauty in the plastic bag floating around. For some reason I didn't change the channel until 2/3 the way thru and had to choke down water to get the taste of vomit out of my mouth.

The Graduate.
Supposedly people thought this movie was great in the 60's...but they were wrong. The whole time I was watching the movie I wanted to smack Dustin Hoffman upside the head. Will

I'll pose the same question that I think astroglide did in an earlier thread about Fight Club, "Who won in the end?" 2+2ers seem smarter than the average bear, so you probably understand it, but the vast majority don't.
