I must be on an entirely different wavelength than Spielberg. I have not liked any of his movies since the one about the runaway truck.

Jaws?
Raiders of the Lost Ark?
Jurassic Park?
Saving Private Ryan?
You are a hard dog to please.

"You are a hard dog to please."

I agree. Spielberg (politics aside) is one of the greatest directors EVER. What's with all the Spielberg bashing? Yes, he's a liberal and a FOB, but I don't think that's ever affected his movies. Look at Saving Private Ryan--the left washed their hands of that movie when they saw that Spielberg depicted the American soldier not as brainless killing machines, as they would've preferred, but as brave and courageous and noble.

I'm looking forward to WOTW.

Jaws was fair, the others stupid. Many of the characters were basically cartoonish.

I even thought Saving Private Ryan was poor. A lot of PC in it too.

Now that I think about it tho, I did like Young Sherlock Holmes and the TV series about the young Indianna Jones.
