Has their been any downside? Well, some of the movies
haven't been great. "Blackhawk Down" was violent and
depressing....

I loved Blackhawk Down. Since I wasn't there I do not know how accurate it
was, but I felt it gave an excellent depiction of combat, and showed the
military to be the professionals that they are.

However, the scene with the white soldier being undercover in the all black
bazaar was hilarious. He certainly wasn't very incognito.

Agreed, it was a good movie, in much the same way as "Saving Private
Ryan".

However, for a social get-together (which is really what Movie Night
is), you don't want a movie that is unrelentingly depressing, or so
violent and graphic that people are bummed out at the end.

Kill Bill was the worst movie I've ever seen, bar none.

Kill Bill II was actually watchable, but still bad...

Now, this really rouses my curiosity. If Kill Bill was truly "...the worst
movie I've ever seen, bar none...", then what possible reason could you
have had for watching Kill Bill II? :-)

I thought of that as well. Also, Kill Bill I & II wasn't like your normal
sequel. They were originally shot as one LONG movie. So what you are really
saying is you didn't like the first half of the movie and did like the
second half. I can say this about MANY movies.

Trust me -- it was forced upon me! (There is a group of otherwise
intelllgent people that inexplicably think that "Kill Bill" is a
classic movie...)

Interesting. I think I was so prepared to watch a horrible movie that
my expectations were lowered to the point where "Kill Bill II" was
better than I expected...
