[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
As I'm sitting here, rating movies I've seen, it occurs to me that there's a vital component missing from their system.
or, the inability to say that a movie was "meh". there's really loved it, loved it, liked it, didn't like it, and hated it. There's no neutral setting. which some may think is irrelevant, but when it KEEPS asking you to rate a movie, you sometimes want to say meh.
when I can't decide on liked/didn't like I go with whether I'd watch it again.
What was that recent movie with the guy in the phone booth... I thought it was brilliant, and I can't remember a damn thing about it.
eta: Frankenbuddha, thank you; I just bought the Anchor Bay edition of Wicker Man. Most pleased. Those missing scenes were a disappointment.
Uh, Phone Booth?

hahaha I typed "Telephone Booth" into Netflix. No wonder. Thanks, Dana, for being my back-up brain.
To me, "meh" means "didn't like." I mean, you didn't like it, right? You maybe didn't actively dislike it, which implies it annoyed you somehow or made you feel like you wasted your time, but you still would not say "I liked that movie."

I'm still waiting for Instant Message to finish up the trilogy.
OMG <3
to me, "meh" is accompanied by a shrug, as in, I don't really care.
