I saw "Rings," and "Split." wow! last season huh? that sucks. Yea, horror movies today aren't that scary because of the overuse of clichés. The other cliché I hate is when everyone dies at the end. For some movies, that makes sense, but now almost every other film does that. I agree with a lot of what other posters are saying. I remember being really into Twilight when it came out, and now, I barely talk about that books or movies. Actually, I don't know of any of my friends who talk about it much either. HP they mention quite frequently. Yep, horror movie clichés are irritating. I'll also add that I dislike horror movies with twists that are meaningless or don't make sense. That's a recent cliché that won't go away. "Dead of Summer" sucked in my opinion. Not enough action until the end of the season, and the twist was weak. I liked the first season of "Bates Motel" but they filled the show with too much drama and introduced plots that made no sense. "American Horror Story" I loved except for Season 2 and that Freak show one. "Salem" looked more like an erotic thriller. Never could get into "Supernatural," though I tried. I didn't finish "Slasher," but I want too. Looks good. Hey I'm a woman and I love the horror genre. It's refreshing and my favorite thing to do. In fact, I'm going to watch a horror movie before I go to bed. Why are they embarrassed about Johnny Depp? Amber Heard's the one I'm embarrassed for. Poor WB just can't catch a break. I totally need to see the first John Wick movie, but I'm having a hard time convincing my boyfriend to watch it with me. I don't want to watch it alone. I really don't understand why Taylor Swift gets so much love. Thanks! When someone enters a dark room and doesn't turn on the lights to see the guy standing right there ready to pounce. Girls running up the stairs instead of out the door to safety in horror movies. Monsters/killers get shot or stabbed multiple times and walk around as though nothing happened. Or my favorite: People wandering off alone into abandoned places instead of staying together in a group. I agree with Shakespeare in Love. That movie was so overrated, and not at all accurate for the times it was portraying. I have a couple: Nicholas Cage for "Leaving Las Vegas," definitely didn't feel that his acting was amazing enough to win. I saw the movie, and quickly grew bored with his performance. Nicholas Cage's had no really shining moments. Plus, I thought his range in emotions was severely limited. Dianne Wiest for "Hannah and Her Sisters," she didn't have enough character development of Holly. She played the character like she plays every other character: naïve, indecisive, and lost as to what she should do with her life. That was pretty much the same character in "The Lost Boys." Plus, her performance was easily forgettable, hardly anyone I know whose seen the movie remembers the name of her character. I concur, I want Gina to be killed off. She was so annoying and clingy. I can't say if I like or dislike Bertie yet. She seems fairly normal compared to the other two. The only scene I hated was when she was sitting with Mickey and Mickey's friend discussing how they dated "unattractive men" as a phase. It's not like Bertie's super gorgeous or anything to look at. This site's amazing! Thanks Jim!
