Chix + flix <> mix. :(
I always enjoyed From Dusk Till Dawn. I didn't consider a particularly intelligent movie, but I did enjoy the action, the f/x, and the excellent camera work. Naturally, my wife was bored. So, a trailer for Kill Bill pt 1 comes on, and she quickly dismisses the whole thing. ...Okay. Not everyone likes Tarantino. Not everyone found Pulp Fiction to be not only funny as hell but also extremely well written and even intelligent. And I do enjoy a large variety of movies... And I would be willing to suffer through a couple of hours of the ugly-as-fuck Julia Roberts and her latest in a long series of tearjerkers, in exchange for being able to watch a movie like Kill Bill, Reservoir Dogs or American Psycho without the bored remarks as to how unrealistic the movie is.
I don't enjoy going to the movies much by myself, and she'd be really offended if I suggested she not come with me. Does anyone else experience this?
