I don't care whether its a multi-million dollar extravaganza or something low budget and arthouse, if its entertaining it's entertaining. Its also nice sometimes to be able to switch off the brain and enjoy a certain kind of film simply for enjoyments sake.

i don't mind switching my brain partly off, but i can't do it completely (or 90% off), and that's what so many films seem to require.
i guess it would be easier if most off the brain-off films weren't also hopelessly jingoistic, patronising and bigoted or clueless about other cultures.
i am expecting too much of them, i know. but, crap can be good! it doesn't have to be bad on top of being crap.
*shakes fist at 'independence day', 'armageddon' and the like*
