Out of personal curiousity, which is important to you when watching a movie and judging a movie.

1) Hot guys/gals
2) Action. LOTS of guns/explosion/kungfu
3) Good Story Plot
4) Originality
5) Computer effects/Special effects

6) Porn.

You can't choose one thing, or else you'd have a bad movie - just like with anything in the world. You need a good balance of actors, hot or not, good plot etc.

I'd watch a film with hot lasses in, but not to see a great film. I'd watch a film with lots of action, doesn't mean it's a great film. A good plot is always a good thing, and this accompanied with originality usually make me enjoy a movie the most.

Saw Indiana Jones today, and thought Speilberg managed to fuse together loads of films he's made with it; and god damn the man's obsessed with a family backstory, still quite good though.

I always love an open ending so you'll have something to guess!

Bill Posters · 27-05-2008, 03:11

Why are good acting performances or good cinematography/direction not on the list?
Where is it changes depending on what mood I'm in?

kye · 01-06-2008, 09:22

Depth of character and atmosphere. There is nothing worse than 2d cardboard cutout characters and atmosphere with the depth of a spoon, it spoils the movie for me. See the new Eye remake with Jessica Alba for an example lol

Bill, do you honestly think someone who puts "Hot gals/guys", "Action. LOTS of guns/explosion/kungfu", and "Computer effects/Special effects" gives a shit about film-making as an art form?

Not in any particular order of importance...three main areas of concern for me:

1. Literary/Theatrical - writing, plot and character development, acting.
2. Aesthetic - direction, cinematography, photography.

I usually like that kind of thing too but saw a Bill Murray film the other day called Broken Flowers which had an open end.Its 2 hours of my life il never get back.

Paddy · 24-06-2008, 18:01

Broken Flowers is a wonderful film.

I hate Hollywood's obsession with happy endings and lessons.

I love films with a good plot, good actors (doesn't mean attractive and rarely means popular) and great aesthetic qualities.

milani · 24-06-2008, 18:04

Just a good plot. Everything else will either flourish or fail depending on the plot.

Do Gooder · 24-06-2008, 18:05

i likes films with hot gals. Everything else will either flourish or fail depending on the hot gals.

milani · 24-06-2008, 18:10

Well said... heh.

Paddy · 24-06-2008, 18:14

Anxious · 25-06-2008, 06:37

Hot men are always a bonus. Not the pretty ones like Jude Law, though.

Paddy · 25-06-2008, 06:58

You like your men manly then, Narelle?
