Yeah, I dont understand why some people look down to on films like Rambo or Die Hard. Dont they understand that films can be means of escaping from the reality and that the point is that on screen you can see/do things that would be impossible in real world. Most films have unbelievable endings anyway. At least most SF flicks do.

Seriously, if they do that for you, jolly good. They don't for me, and I'm not going to pretend I much like them.Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

That's because even in the shoddiest action movies there are those romantic moments.Originally posted by Whoha
I answered **** no to every single one of the romance questions and it wasnt zero
For me, they could do away with them though. Romance is much better in real life.Comment

Artistic is probably a tad lower than it should be, but the rest is pretty accurate.Comment

I think I like the movies under Artistic and Sadistic Humor better... oh well.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

You scored as Artistic. Congratulations, you scored Artistic. You're looking for the unique movie in the bunch. You've probably watched a lot of movies that nobody has ever heard of, and good for you. You also know good filmmaking when you see it. You just get it, no questions asked. Check out: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Amelie, Garden State, Lost in Translation. Artistic

I still haven't seen this movie, I keep meaning to. In fact, I think I have this movie on my hard drive, I just haven't gotten around to seeing it yet. I love all their movies.
But I would have put myself more as the Donnie Darko type. That was a cool movie.
I think I messed up this quiz. I love mindless action flicks, at least the older ones with "adult" stars- not these kid actors like the rock and vin diesal. I certainly like them better than romantic comedies.Last edited by Dis; February 6, 2005, 15:03.Comment

only artsy snobs like Donnie Darko and Spotless Mind? I don't think so.Originally posted by Shi Huangdi
This thing was obviously written by an artsy snob who is into indie films and prejudiced the test against mainstream fields by making all the mainstream answers look stupid and unappealing to answer.Comment
