Like I said, I'll watch it and I'm sure it is good. My point was that many don't like the King's Speech because it didn't suit their personal likes in movies. No sex, violence, action, explosions, car chases, etc. Just a good movie. But yeah, I do like dumbed down movies as well as so do many others which is proven by how many like Pineapple Express and others movies for entertainment purposes only. Meh, I know what I like and to with the rest.
That has nothing to do with it. It's the fact that it was such blatant Oscar bait. The movie was made for the sole purpose of collecting Academy Awards. There's no other reason for it to even exist.
In basketball terms, The King's Speech is the equivalent of Tim Duncan's 45 degree bank shot. It's solid, it's effective, Spurs fans obviously enjoy seeing it go in the hoop, and it's won championships.........but it's also robotic, passionless, and completely devoid of any style or excitement.
I've never understood why people hate survival stories. Do people not like it when others survive something tragic? I mean what's the deal? Let me guess, the people in Alive were idiots because they got on an airplane that crashed?
Someone with sense!
As a person that posts alot of Trailers on this forum, I have learned that people here will about a movie incessantly, regardless of its merits... All you have to do is look at when I posts the trailers. I dont offer an opinion at all weather I think it looks good or not.
I always find it entertaining that almost every trailer I post is on by at least 1 person, and without fail its almost always someone from "the crew"
