Ya, I didn't really get the love for Lost Boys. I thought it was more style (MTV) than substance. I've always been a Lou Gramm (Foreigner) fan, he did some songs for it.
It's kinda funny... a long time friend of mine (who's a little touched) posted a trailer of Lost Boys on youtube (he posts about 10-15 a week, which I comment on from time-to-time). I commented that I thought it was OK, but had a bit of an overrated following, and mentioned some things I thought was weak. He posted that Lost Boys was part of who he was, cussed me out, and de-friended me (which he's done to others in our circle of friends). About a year latter he apologized and were friends again.
Of course ending a friendship because your friend expressed low esteem for a film is irrational & immature; but I wondered if God was telling me I should keep more of my inconsequential opinions to myself. He's probably right. = ) But luckily we have HDC were exchanging opinions on film is the venue. But people still idolize films, music and artists, where for some they are the gods of their 'religion'. But I can't help thinking (silently) to myself there should be more important things filling that 'empty spot' besides things like The Lost Boys.
