What you quoted was not a bad line of dialogue. Yes, the dialogue was very stylized but I tend to like that.

Agree to disagree big time then

I guess I'm pretentious because I liked Crash. I just didn't see all the BS in it I guess. I really think it is more because I like those types of movies that have a large cast with intertwining plots and such.
I also liked Lost in Translation and Shakespeare in Love. Shakespeare in Love is very entertaining. Best Picture, no.

I also liked Lost in Translation

I'll agree with Babel and Crash and I'll add Sideways since it hasn't been mentioned. Not a terrible flick but I don't see why it was so hyped. I would just as soon have my 2 hours back.

I feel the same way about the Twilight books. Try readiong them first before declaring anyone who likes them gay.
I never said anyone who likes Brokeback Mountain is gay. I said that I have no desire to watch a movie about two gay cowboys.

Stylized is Wes Anderson, Aaron Sorkin stuff.
Juno was just a bunch of fluff delivered in an entirely over the top/way too cutesy manner.

I think you could basically throw in any Oscar film here and you would be right.

And so is Jason Reitman.

Yeah, and that was his worst movie.
I actually think he's a pretty solid director. He just chose to work with a really poor screenplay in this case. Diablo Cody blows.

has "The English Patient" been mentioned?

And I said maybe you should watch it before you judge it. It's not about 2 "gay cowboys". If you watched it, you'd know that

i agree with you. i did enjoy the movie, but it was over hyped.

I really loved Sideways
didn't really think it was overhyped seeing as half the people i mention it to have never heard of it

i don't know how they would not have heard of it. maybe i was just more into movies at that time and just heard all sorts of stuff about it and how great it was.
there were commercials for it all the time talking about "best picture" this and that...
i liked the movie, and would recomend it to people. just didn't think it was worthy of all the attention.

American Beauty
One of the most pompous, cliche-laden, predictable pieces of crap to ever come out of Hollywood and win massive awards and praise.

The problem with Babel is that it was basically done with 21 Grams which was a takeoff of his Amores Perros which was a great movie.
The only thing I liked about Crash was the soundtrack.
