Upon viewing a film and enjoying it, you have trouble containing your excitement and i believe you then engage in buying any affordable memorabilia (in this case, multiple dvds for the same movie) or make your complete disappointment known to the other world.

Riggs27 wrote: Do me  RiggsFilm Ranking: Passive Filmgoer I get the feeling that people around you do not know how much you enjoy the film medium and I also believe that you wish to keep it that way. You're not neccessarily into sharing that experience with people (however, you do like the idea of watching movies with people) but then beyond the formalities, wish to keep your comments to yourself mainly because you do not feel there is any reason to tell anyone anything. Your film experience was your own and you're more than happy with that.

I look just as much into the execution than i do the themes and concepts. I've looked at my posts in the Review forum and there seems to be a mix of both. Also, a majority of my reviews are a sentence long, there's not a long to go on.

bABA wrote: Dr. Lecter Film Ranking: Genuine Film Lover You have the knowledge, you have the interest, you follow it up with actually watching your films and then follow that up with discussion. It is beyond a hobby for you and given the chance, I personally feel you would try to be a part of it. However, as a person who firmly believes that foreign language films should be seen subtitled instead of dubbed, I honestly do not know your opinion on most films when they first come out because you've seen them in German Actually, best way is to see the films in their original language (which for English, German and Russian films is not a problem). Subtitles are distracting to be honest. But your analysis...sounds quite right : )

Films don't neccessarily have to be Picasso. Once in a while, a 5 minute badly made up photoshop is just as creative

You're well aware of your own mental state when you are walking into a movie. While you have bias', you are aware of them and try to negate them. Thats suppose to be positive but concentrate more on the movie instead of your own self. its like having sex. enjoy the sex, not how well you are performing.

SnrubFilm Ranking: British Meaning I don't really understand your criteria on anything. I find you difficult to predict. I find there to be absolutely no consistency to you which would imply that your love, hate, are indifferent, like or dislike really depends mostly on your mood, intoxication level and if the film will be successful in convincing your lady chick or Mr. Bigalow to go down on you afterwards. Which is preferred is best left upto the imagination (or rather not).
