... or, in other words, I didn't hate it - but it completely baffled me. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 22, 09:31 11

  - On the other end of the spectrum, the other PTA movie I know I've seen is Punch Drunk Love. And it was awesome. - Beryllium Jun 22, 09:34 7
    - Punch Drunk Love is the only PTA movie I haven't been able to get into. - znufrii Jun 22, 09:35 6
      - hmm, I haven't seen any of PTA's other films. Never seen Magnolia or Boogie Nights. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 22, 09:38 5
        
        well, if you thought TWBB is baffling, I can only imagine what you'll think of Magnolia - znufrii Jun 22, 09:39 4
        
        Yes, that's part of the reason I haven't seen it. :) I watched TWBB because I had previously seen - and disliked - NCFOM. - Beryllium Jun 22, 09:40 3
