> But I don't understand people who *refuse* to think; my mother, for example, refuses to watch any foreign films, because reading subtitles is "too much work." I don't get that at all.

My dad, brother and two cousins were like that too when we went to see "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" I loved it, while my cousins (both 16) didn't stay awake and my dad and brother thought that reading subtitles was too difficult. I have no idea where I got my genes.

> So, for my part, I understand why mindless blockbusters are, in fact, blockbusters; people are easy to sell on things like that. What I don't understand isn't the popularity of those, but the unwillingness of the masses to think.

Lately, I've had too much interest in the mindless stuff. I really want to see "Dark City", but I can't find it anywhere around the college.
