Have you ever watched a film that was just horrible? Have you ever thought that putting that film on was a complete waste of your time? At the films end, did you fall to your knees and surrender to Father Time and demand that you want your 90 minutes back? 

Ok, well, I cannot recall a time when I have ever said I want my 90 minutes back. This does not mean that I never seen a horrible film. In fact, watching horrible films has become an art in its own right. Well, to be more correct, finding a truly horrible film is an art. There are tons of mediocre films. In fact, mediocrity is all the rave in Hollywood these days. Even huge blockbuster films have been boiled down to mediocrity. Just see Transformers 2.

But seriously, my gripe in this article is how many times I have read in someone's review (usually on Amazon) that they want their 90 minutes back from watching a movie they did not like. What's the deal with that? I think it is such a stupid and asanine comment that I am more irked by the comment than the bad movie itself! Why am I so irked? Because the person chose to sit through the film! They chose the film. The sat through it. Then discovered it was bad? No. It does not work like that. You spent your money and your time. Sit with it.

The fact is, if you sat with a film for 90 minutes and got nothing out of it (and I dont mean a life lesson because, chances are, if its really bad, it has nothing to teach on a superficial level), if you truly got nothing out of it, then you are just culturally void and artistically insensitive. There is so much information that films offer, to walk away with nothing is truly a stupendous act in and of itself. How shallow would you need to be to cry you want your time back! It has been well established long, long ago that time does not reverse itself under any condition.

I have decided to hopefully, get a number of requests from my dear readers to plead that they ask for their time back after they have read my pointless rant about movie watchers who scream they want their 90 minutes back. Granted, to read this will be about 10 minutes, but you might cry wanting your 10 minutes and I, nor anyone else will give it to you. So my dear reader, I have given you an earful of my own personal diatribe to start the week out. So lets go watch bad movies!
