I was having this conversation with a classmate decked out in Nightmare Before Christmas accessories, and she seemed shocked when I said I disliked the movie and all of its associated merchandise. I also didn't care for Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I think both of those are highly overrated. Maybe Ferris Bueller is considered a staple in American movie culture or whatever but I really didn't find it interesting as a movie.
So what popular films don't you like?




I had to look up "nightmare before Christmas" to see if I had seen it... which, from looking at the screen shots, I believe I have.
I never was one for ditching class...I had "study" (free) periods... which was enough for me - especially if combined with a lunch hour or end of day - so I never felt the need . Although Ferris "cleverly" gets what he wants he actually does it by dishonesty, cheating, manipulating and other levels of lying and at the expense of others. I found myself wanting him to get caught. That said there are some funny one liners in the movie and it is fast enough paced that you don't really get bored.
