Worst Movie Ever, Version 2 Options

I don't think it's that bad, but Sweeney Todd is definitely not that good. (I can't think of anything worse right now; might edit if I do.)

But on that subject, I have no problem with big words. Trust me, I don't. But unless you're trying to say something substantial, using big words to fill up space is stupid.

I don't mind the big words when he's saying something worthwhile like this:

The Fountain was so pretentious impart because it was so self-indulgent. The same scene(s) - literally the same scene - is shown an unreasonable amount of times. The symbology of the film is overwrought and cliched (the tree of life, etc. etc.). The jilted time frames and chronology of the "stories", which add very little to whatever depth one might be able to invent, are unnecessarily confusing as well as arbitrarily placed though-out a far too lengthy running time (during which very little actually happens). Usually, the highlight of a slow-paced or minimalistic film is its attention to tone, however, because of the non-contingency of the entire experience, no atmosphere is truly unearthed. Instead, the movie just appears lost. Worse is that the filmmaker is constantly informing us, through his direction, his use of dramatics, and his imagery, that something profound is happening. To me, the constant reminder that something important is happening only extends the dubiosity I hold to any film that already can't seem to articulate it's supposed insights.

I'm actually going to rent it when I'm done with finals and back home now to see if I agree with this.

Sort of... I thought you were someone else named Melissa from a while ago, who I DID think was fickle. I don't actually know you at all.
