Is every week a new way to find out how people in LA are racist? <BR/><BR/>I have not been impressed with Haggis movies, but he has written decent television in the past (EZ Streets), although since he will have little involvement, I don't see this going very far.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11317568565085893849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-38068418950165742152008-07-14T10:57:00.000-04:002008-07-14T10:57:00.000-04:00Nice to see that the racist wingnuts are out in fo...Nice to see that the racist wingnuts are out in force.<BR/><BR/>Now that we know your opinion of African-Americans, what's your opinions of Latinos, Asian-Americans, Native Americans, women, gays and lesbians--as if we didn't already know?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-54758773111869815772008-07-13T15:31:00.000-04:002008-07-13T15:31:00.000-04:00Count me in as someone who hated the film as well....Count me in as someone who hated the film as well.

Everyone looks at me with ten heads when I tell them I didn't like it.<BR/><BR/>Such a melodramatic and dishonest film.<BR/><BR/>Also.... Starz! seems like a ridiculous place to try and throw a dramatic series. I had it for a while with one of the many digital cable tiers, and it wasn't a bad station if you like watching the occasional movie on cable, but I certainly wouldn't put it on par with Showtime and HBO.Bobmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01604050338240551711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-2390828375748097112008-07-12T01:21:00.000-04:002008-07-12T01:21:00.000-04:00As long as it has nothing to do with the Paul Hagg...As long as it has nothing to do with the Paul Haggis movie, they might as well also claim it has nothing to do with the David Cronenberg movie.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351452512636422112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-39451541950448638352008-07-11T23:25:00.000-04:002008-07-11T23:25:00.000-04:00Well, Crash the Movie felt like a condescending, m...Well, Crash the Movie <EM>felt</EM> like a condescending, manipulative piece of garbage.
