The Departed, Good Will Hunting, Shawshank, and Gone Baby Gone are all really high up on my all-time list, and they all got recognized as great movies. For the most part, though, I don't seem to like the Oscar nominees or cult classics, and pretty much anything that's been recommended by OOT (Dark Knight, Children of Men, TWBB, Equilibrum, Sin City, Slumdog, etc.) has been awful.

It's not like I'm
trying to hate them. I fell asleep during TWBB, and it really might be the worst move I've ever seen. NCFOM was alright, but the "ending" killed it. I downloaded it online, and I honestly thought I had downloaded an incomplete movie because it ended so abruptly. I just feel like most of these critically-acclaimed movies are "artsy" and well-acted yet suck at actually entertaining me.
And just so you can flame me, I loved Crash.
