Good try, though.
Plenty of clever people think that Ghost World is boring shit.

If you like Snatch, you'll probably appreciate In Bruges.

Based on the average intelligence of the human race, I can't say that you are making a very compelling argument in your favor.

I havn't seen the movie, that I recall at least.

Movies...

Casshern, Dead and Breakfast, A Boy and His Dog, Hot Fuzz, The Great Escape, Killer Klowns From Outer Space, Feast (1 and 2), Four Brothers, Resident Evil: Degeneration, Ravenous.

That enough suggestions? :P

If a person is "smart enough" to pick up on the subtlety or underlying message it doesn't mean they'll be intrigued by it, or even remotely interested.

Neither have I, but when Ophelia claims that only stupid people could find Ghost World boring, I cannot concede that the wondrous gothicusmaximus is stupid, such a claim must not go unchallenged.

Ju-On. Not that american Grudge crap. I thought it was pretty good, but it has been a few years since I've seen it.

Oooh, Dark City is quite good!

I would recommend Pan's Labyrinth if you haven't seen it yet; seriously deep and creepy movie.

Have you seen Cube: Zero? I really liked the first Cube movie, hated the second (though the repeated cannibalism bit was kinda funny), but liked the third, which is a prequel but interesting and creepy nonetheless.

And it's been ages since I've seen it, but I remember thinking Lost Highway was kinda screwy. The Butterfly Effect was really good too, but I strongly recommend the director's cut instead of the theatrical release. There's a deleted scene and alternate ending in the director's cut that make it a better movie.

So you`re saying that Cube: Zero is better? mmm. I have to look it up then.

I watched the butterfly effect, it was an ok movie.. but the second movie was awful.

Saya, I agree, Geo should see the entire trilogy including `A Few Dollars More` and all the other films directed by Sergio Leone (one of the best films directors ever) !!!.

Some more info on Sergio Leone ....


I also forgot the `Mad Max` Trilogy which are awesome films !!!.
