RULES:
I had a friend at school who did this. At the cinema, after the movie was over, he would be one of the loudest voices in the group, talking about how awesome the movie was, how it's going to do so well at the box office and how he couldn't wait for the next one to come out.
The very next day, he'd come in armed with research on all the plot holes and ways the movie failed from other critics, and then just lay into the movie as if it was the worst movie he'd seen and how it was a waste of his money.
We would point out how annoying he was for convincing himself that he hated it. The only opinion that counted was the one right after the movie ended; that's the best and most honest review one could give. He kept on doing it. It wasn't cool, Chris.
Always a gd Chris ain't it
everybody hates chris
My brother is a Chris and has watched that show all the way through several times.
I often look at reviews after I watch a movie and it's usually a terrible idea. It's like we're training ourselves to become angry. On the other hand, every once in a while reading reviews makes you realize a whole bunch of stuff that you otherwise would have missed. This happened to me with Mother!, the movie with Jennifer Lawrence.
That's funny, yesterday when I was reading this thread I thought specifically about Aronofsky as an example of a director that tells deep, layered, surrealistic stories that don't go over well with the average moviegoer. My mind went to Pi and The Fountain, but I had forgotten mother! completely, so thanks for the reminder.
