A Great Movie for people with no taste!

If you never go to the movies or take in a show, this one is for you! You can project all of your bad taste onto one, big, fat movie with your favorite "hot" stars that you know so well from TMZ looking really awful and singing badly. See! The cameras shoved down actor's throats! Hear! The tentative froggy Russel Crowe not sing for 3 hours! Behold! The beautiful Anne Hathaway glamorously expire in the first act! Witness! The disasterous mis-casting of a baritone in a tenor part! Enjoy! All of your bad taste in all things all at once: obnoxious camera-work, pedestrian CGI, the worst score to ever win prizes, all in dolby digital! Only in theaters!

But there might be nothing to this. The user probably just quite IMDB. Don't read more into it than that. When i deactivated my account it was like i never was there. The threads that i started went away and thus the responses of others. This doesn't have to do with civil liberties. I think you're reading too much into this.

Okay sweetheart. Then leave IMDB if you don't like their tactics.

LMAO that is classic! And sadly pretty much nails the 2012 cinematic production of the appropriately named, Les MIserables.

Django is a joke how bad of a movie it is. Classic Tarantino waste of time. Easily the most over rated director of the last 30 years. They edited one movie out of order and suddenly hes Steven SPielberg. Django is garbage.

Django is Mr. Tarentino's worst movie, the only one of his that I did not like. But he is not IMHO a waste of time or overrated. Les Mis is much better and I could not disagree with the OP more.....

Kent, I agree, mostly because the THEMES of Les Mis are far more heartwrenching than the themes of Django.

Those who don't like Tom Hooper's style, I believe, don't quite understand what he was doing with the visceral storytelling.

It's not new. Many people from Hitchcock, Cassavette, Spielberg, etc. have done so, but not to the extent of Hooper did. For example, the opening scenes in Saving Private Ryan was filmed in a very visceral manner (close ups, hand-held cameras, unconventional camera angles, fast cuts, etc..

It's ridiculous for the reason I stated here.

I hated Les Miserables and cannot believe that people actually think it's a great movie. The worst thing is I don't even see it as a love it or hate it movie, because it is technically atrocious. It is good if you just want to see a musical version of Les Mis and will love it no matter how incompetent it is.

Yes, Tom Hooper is an incompetent director in many ways, so he was chosen as one of the five director nominees for best achievement in featured films by the Directors Guild of America, that included among others Ang Lee, Spielberg, Affleck, Bigelow.

DGA should be abolished, the director members are all hopelessly insane, professional retards and ignoramuses for voting Tom Hooper in.

Truth inexorably,inscrutably seeks and reveals Itself into the Light.
