difficult...
when you watch a movie, is it better to have high expectations of it when you watch it, or have low/no expectations?
for me, and i would believe for many others too, having low/no expectations before you watch a movie is better, cos more often than not, an okay movie would turn out disappointing if you have too high expectations of it. and i will enjoy an okay movie more if i have low/no expectations of it.
recently in the bar, there's this thread where some ppl were organising a trip to watch SAW2, and were getting pretty excited over it. i thought that i would try to help by posting that SAW2 "wasnt very good" and told them "dun keep your expectations too high". sure, i may be throwing a wet blanket, but i was just trying to help reduce the damage.
in actual fact, SAW2 wasnt just "wasnt very good". it sucked. and having no expectations may not help at all. so u see, i actually softened what i wanna say... so as to not douse their flames too much. if i could, i would have told them not to watch the movie at all.
and the next post was from someone, whom i communicate with more than most others, blasting me for posting such a negative post.
negative, yes it was, but i was just trying to help.
sigh. difficult... probably should shut myself up in the bar more liao.
