Not a film but I bought the box set of My So called Life recently and am almost finished my rewatch, did you watch that in the 90's? Ugh I love it so much, it's every bit as good as i remembered

Yes

But I have to ask...on rewatch. Did you relate more to the parents or the teens in that series..
Cause the whole Mom Dad storyline and how they relate to their daughter seems to me would play differently in my head today

Oh I definitely could relate to them alot more, I think I didn't take too much notice of what was going on with them originally. And also my daughter is 15 now so I was looking at the kids and thinking about her more than myself which is what I would have been doing first time round.

We've recently watched the whole of Pretty Little Liars on Netflix (which is ridiculous but oddly enjoyable in a soapy way), having never watched it before, and far too often found ourselves agreeing with the parents on certain things where I'm sure youre supposed to be siding with the girls...

Like the one shagging her teacher! He's in his mid 20's and she's only 16! I'm sure it's supposed to be some great forbidden love thing but we were like "No! Get your grubby hands off her, she's JUST A BABY you pervert! You have a duty of care!!" ... and when her parents find out and are horrified we were like "Quite right! Get him put in jail, dirty paedo..."

Srsly she's the youngest looking / babyfaced and most childlike seeming of all of them. It's quite disturbing.

Agree with 3 out of 4 of those. Although not brilliant, LOTR films I do like. You can't can't beat the books over the films though. Most films get changed so much from book to film and not for the better, just some over egotistical producers who think they know better.

All the other aforementioned films on this thread I agree with being overrated.

Pulp Fiction - Honestly gave the movie a chance and i just don't get the hype. Don't get me wrong I didn't hate it, it was funny at times and isn't **** or anything but over all it wasn't really a stand out movie to me.

Gravity - pretty boring film if you didn't watch it in 3D
