i enjoy watching stuff such as

fargo
the shining
the killer
raging bull
down by law
king of comedy
the discreet charm of the bourgeoisie (yes, i had to google the movie to copy and paste "bourgeoisie", as i cannot spell it on the fly)

the list goes on, we all have our favorites...



but just what are these?

are these films?

or are these movies?

some may believe that "short films" and "documentary films" cant be movies, so lets limit the discussion to fiction feature-length movies/films.

They are all films in my book.

either/or

where's the options for "flicks?"

a handful of canadians i knew growing up only used the word "flicks."

It's filum.

To be retro, you can also call them "pictures" or one a "picture." For most movies, pieceofshit does the trick. It can also be used as an adjective, as in "pieceofshit comedy" or "pieceofshit drama."

Movies.

When you ask your lovely out for the evening do you say 'Wanna see a film?'
No, you say 'Wanna go to the movies?'
'How about we sit in the back and you give me a handjob in the cinema?'
Does not sound right, does it?
When you are making small chit chat wth people do you ask 'Been to the theatre lately?'
No, you say 'See any good movies lately?'
Unless you are a douche trying to get everyone to make fun of you, or you are under the assumption you are living in 1920.
Just talk like a normal person for fuck's sake.

I still wanna give a slap to anyone who drops "Talkie" in conversations.
