I used to be a big movie fan. No more. Between overdone CGI and lack of originality in the plots, there seems to be nothing at the cinema to be excited about. Plus preachy left-wing diatribes ruin any movie.

My mother told me about the excitement in Atlanta when “Gone With the Wind” opened. People were excited to go see “10 Commandments”, “Ben-Hur”, “Star Wars”, “Jaws” and “Jurassic Park”. Not any more.

Same here. I don't even tune into what's out there, so this list seems completely alien to me.

Not just the CGI, but the explosive titillations are a huge turnoff for me. They're obviously trying to compensate for something.

[Between overdone CGI]

When McG inserted a “transformers” Terminator into “Terminator Salvation” and the overblown CGI you knew we were never going to get the next Terminator we wanted.

It was difficult enough making it through Terminator III.
