Many bad movies are popular. That many people can't be right.

This one was both popular and worthy of Oscar and a number of other awards.  You might like it now.  It might be dated.  But back in the day it was a big hit.

What a chump this guy is. Besides actually being a twit, telling about it all in public; what a marooooon!    :huh:

I haven't seen it, I wouldn't know. I was speaking in generalities.

INDEPENDENCE DAY.
The first movie I went to where the crowd gave it a standing ovation.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Have you been to any others where they gave it a standing O?

@ PRC I've had that happen a couple of times that I can think of:

LOTR: Return of the King
Quills
The Matrix
Seabiscuit
Walk the Line

I find people who applaud at movies to be mouth breathing morons.

I'm amazed.  I've never seen a standing ovation at a movie... and only once or twice some sporadic clapping at the end of one.
