Certainly you cannot be arguing that Pulp Fiction is better than Goodfellas, I can see your argument for Fargo but Goodfellas? I mean Tarrantino is just a wannabe Martin Scorsese.

I have to agree with mp here. I thought Goodfellas and Fargo were better than Pulp Fiction. In fact, I must not get Pulp Fiction, as I've watched it twice and didn't like it either time.

Those movies sucked beyond belief.
I got through 20 min of the English Patient before I fell asleep. The next morning I returned it to Blockbuster.

Okay the person who voted for Titanic, fess up. That may have been understandable 11 years ago when you were a 15 year old girl, but now now.

I suffered through the entire thing, as I was battling insomnia the night I saw it and hoped it would be a cure. But, alas, the insomnia won that battle.

Sorry to hear that. I really don't remember the movie much, isn't it just about some dude that got burned really badly? Anything else I should know?

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Jerry and his date made out during Schindler's List. Friggin hilarious.

It reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when Elaine is shunned for admitting that she hated the English Patient.
