Well, I didn't DISagree. My argument was that it was a dumb fuck theory to begin with. Who cares how much acclaim it would get if it were a different movie?

i, for one, want to see it - i've liked eveyrthing ang lee has done (except for the Hulk) so i'm open to the possibility

The people who stand to make money off of the movie.

My thoughts exactly.

If King Kong had had anal sex with that T-Rex instead of killing it, it would have walked away with all the awards this year.

If Brokeback Mountain was in black and white and maybe a foreign language the critics would have named it best movie ever.

I actually agree with you there. 'O course I'd have to listen to my conservative (and not the kind you can tolerate) family and well neck of the country bitch about it, though.

Oh and S, is your comment about "who cares if it was a different movie," the same as, "People would like me better if I wasn't Haunted?" Just want to make sure that I understand you.:)

My point is, it doesn't matter how much acclaim it would get if it were different, because that's not the movie they made.

I'm not following

Okay, let me see if I can make more sense.

The person said it'd make more money if it were a different movie. That's a moot point, right? I mean, if Ghostbusters was actually called "Pet Sitters" and was about four guys that suited up and used radioactive particle beams to manage their animals...well then, it wouldn't be Ghostbusters would it? So, the point would be stupid.

So, if Kong was about a giant bunny instead of ape, but the bunny did similar things, it still wouldn't be Kong, so it's (once again) a moot and stupid point.

That's the best way that I know how to explain myself. Then again, It's pretty early here, and I just woke up.:D
