Bullshit? It practically foretold the transition from manufacturing economy to service economy in America! It offers a scathing criticism of foreign outsourcing due to the undesirable economic, social and political ramifications that inevitably arise.

Well, well, well, you can dish it out, but can you take it?

Lynch has made several other films that are immeasureably better. Yours is a typical film newbie selection.

Lost in Translation
I've seen it about two and a half times, and it isn't bad, but it isn't all that incredibly noteworthy either. Yours is a typical film newbie selection.
3. One film you would want on a desert island
Dune
This is an okay choice. Although I feel asleep during this when it originally played in the theater, I came to like it much more after reading the book. I have a feeling you have never read the book. I also have a feeling you'd want it on a desert island so you could have the time to make more sense of it. It's probably for people like yourself that the whole introductory section was added for the airings on television. As you may know, Lynch had his name removed from this movie.
4. One film that made you laugh
Dumb and Dumber (said before I know but it really is great)
Really great or very funny this isn't.
5. One film that made you cry
I cry all the time. Babe came close today though.
What a child.
6. One film you wish had been made
Kubrick's Napolean
This might have been interesting.
7. One film you wish had never had been made
Freddy got fingered
Yeah, it sucked. I don't think I've watched the whole thing. I was hoping for more from Rip Torn. I'm wondering though if you wish it would have never been made because it effectively ended the movie career of no-talent jerk Tom Green.
8. The last film you saw
Babe
Good for you, I suppose.
9. One film you have been meaning to see
Blade Runner
Again, yours is a typical film newbie selection. You haven't ever seen Blade Runner. What a fucking joke.
