I've skipped the Oscar telecast for more years than I can remember. I feel good about that choice.

The last movie I saw in a theater was the third Lord of the Rings film. I'm happy NOT to support a Hollywood industry that hates people like me.

What you support you get more of. Your instincts are correct - quit watching.

I've seen a few movies in a theater since LOTR, but I haven't been excited by any movie since the LOTR trilogy, which was spectacular.

Uh, yeah... I just checked Russ Meyer’s filmography on imdb.com. Yowsa... no wonder I’ve never heard of him.

Was always an admirer of the work of Meyer’s ex-wife, Kitten.

My husband dragged me to one of his films in the 60s. I told him if he enjoyed that so much he should get his own breasts blown up.

You're right - it's a classic

I agree. The LOTR films were the only ones I’ve really been excited over in recent years. I have enjoyed some other modern films, though. But, yeah, most of what comes out of Hollywood these days is quite lame.
