Hey Pamela,

(By the way, I’m sorry if I’m muddling the replies in this thread. I’m trying to respond to individual posts, but I’m not sure if it’s working right…I rarely post on internet forums!!)

I’m extremely sorry that you get sneered at, and I don’t care if it’s for liking the movies I hate; the principle is the same! You love what you love, and even though I have fears of people who enjoy violent movies, I am also able to see the aspects that shine far brighter and have an even greater healing force (your empathy and care are so significantly awesome!). Yes, you are right….we need variety in this world, and I do love it, as I love being the “different/weird” one, to add more color to life. I just…have my own tastes, y’know? 🙂

Rom coms? Hehe, I like CERTAIN ones. 🙂 They gotta be done juuuuuust right for me. Something like My Big Fat Greek Wedding is pleasantly entertaining for being cute, real, funny, and most of all, SIMPLE (no special effects needed!). But I can easily understand why some people wouldn’t care for it, either. And I’m still not certain what constitutes a “chick flick”… I think I liked Notting Hill, but again, I would NEVER EVER EVER look down on someone for disliking it… The best part of being looked down on is that you come to realize how NOT to treat others, and I think it’s made me the more open-hearted person I am today (though even I have my trippings in places).

Blargle, I think I’m falling over my words now, sorry. Go watch Kingsman and enjoy. 🙂 I love the umbrellas most of all. 😉 I will pop in Noises Off! or Auntie Mame and smile. I can’t deny my tastes in movies are weird and unconventional, but vive la difference, right? 😀

BIG WALRUS HUGS, all my love, and many thanks to you and yours!! Be safe, always!!!
