This is a phenomenon I will never understand. I mean sure, to an extent we all make up our minds about movies before we even see them (or don't see them), which on one hand helps us save money instead of seeing shit we probably won't like, or on the other might ruin our moviegoing experience if we try too hard to like or dislike something because we have these expectations that need to be met. But yeah, judging from the way certain people I know talk about this movie, it's like they are already eagerly awaiting their first post-Juno visit to Facebook so they can add it to the top of their Favorite Movies section. I don't get it. I understand the thrill you get from seeing a fantastic movie, but not when you have to decide all of that beforehand. Personally I like to be caught a little off guard. Like after Spider-man 3. Which was dumb as hell but nevertheless ranks among the likes of Space Jam, The Golden Compass, and Harry Potter 5 (the third time) when it comes to my all-time favorite/most memorable moviegoing experiences.
