    You are making a value judgement, based on commercial success. That's fine if you want to look at it that way, but some people don't.
    Why 'cause I said "market leader"?

    I watch foreign movies. I happen to think American movies are the best as a whole.

    The last Star Wars movie had great market success but I thought it sucked besides the last 30 minutes.

    Movies like

    Pulp Fiction
    Aliens
    Star Wars Empire Strikes Back
    and even Frailty

    have no foreign rival to speak of.

    pulp fiction is overrated

    aliens (after the first one) are crappy and play on that same goddam storyline

    star wars only joking - just not my sort of film

    Pulp Fiction is one of the best films I've ever seen, admittedly I'm not much of a connoisseur but over-rated isn't a word I'd have used.
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    Please don't bring that piece of sh*t Amélie into that debate. It would just prove Busyman's point that movies from the U.S of A are better.
