I just saw "Lost In Translation", ask me stuff
Best picture I've seen this year. Bill Murray, Oscar nominee...will probably lose to someone playing a sick or mentally challenged person or something. Go see it.

2. I could care less
There are two types of people in the world -- people who get it and people who don't. They're pretty easy to spot.

3. actually i thought you might be interested in some of the comments
on the thread. There were both positive and negative. Do you have a percentage of the gross or something?

4. No, I read the thread
I meant I could care less about people who trash anything without an explosion or a car chase. There's a goof on people like that in the movie -- a couple of morons in the bar ask Bob Harris if he does his own driving in his car chases.

5. I don't recall anyone suggesting that a car crash would have increased
their enjoyment of the movie.

7. If I were "thoughtful and informed"...
I certainly wouldn't copy a sentence from such an unthoughtful and uninformed post as mine. But, whoops - you did.

I'd really like to know what you consider "a good, deep, philosophical and character driven film." FORREST GUMP, perhaps?

94% positive reviews. But what do THEY know, eh?

12. I personally can't wait to see it.
I also like thought provoking and character driven films.

13. Actually, you have those both wrong...
Lost in Translation: Very good film.
American Beauty: Mediocre film.
