I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Viggo Mortensen might be the coolest dude ever. Speaks a dozen languages, adopted his horsie from LotR, starred in Eastern Promises and A History of Violence, probably has a huge hog. Who even comes close?

It's all relative. I hated it in the context of strongly disliking a piece of subjective art.oasisfan35 wrote:Hate is such a strong word.

I get it, plus should it have been an off day personally the chances of you revisiting it are basically zero.
I remember nothing of the film but the viewing conditions were far from stellar, reading the word hate just gets me at times.

Nah, that's totally fair. I forget that some people don't respond well to my default hyperbolic "slang." I should be better about it.oasisfan35 wrote:epilogue wrote:It's all relative.

My wife is always calling me out on that, too.

Is Joe my total opposite film-wise? I consider A History of Violence close to a masterpiece
