Maybe not more, but some movies are up there. A lifetime of never getting to watch Better Off Dead again is enough to give me pause. No more Jackie Chan movies. No more Troma ****fests. No more spaghetti westerns and black and white samurai flicks. No more uber weird arthouse pieces. No more Ghibli movies, and Beautiful Dreamer, and Angel's Egg, and even ****ing MD Geist.

And The Warriors. Oh, **** The Warriors! I can't do this. It's like choosing which testicle to get chopped off.

Some have entertainmed me enough, it's not that.

How often do you watch TV shows?

Man, Bacon is cookin'. He def gets a pass. Wish I could've had a print of that **** on my door back when I was a teenager, and thought Carpenter's remake of The Thing was the height of human creation.

It used to be occasionally, but by now: Basically never.

So you haven't been following the second golden age of television? Maybe if you caught up a little you wouldn't be so against shows.

I’d imagine Bacon was an influence on Carpenter and especially Cronenberg.

I did watch some episodes of shows people were telling me to watch, but nothing stuck with me.

I gave these a shot: Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, and Mad Men. Nothing really stuck with me. I especially didn't like GOT and Boardwalk.

TV series are a huge time commitment. Didn't find one that convinced me to throw 10+ hours away just like that.

How many movies go on one average TV show? A lot.

I do. Among many, many movies instead of a few TV shows. Ain't nobody got time for that ****.

I watched 10 hours of Game of Thrones to make a friend shut up about it. 10 hours! Very poor decision in hindsight. This is why I won't a TV show just because people say it's good. Fool me once, twice, ...
