I get all that shit, but I didn’t like the character. How is it a mistake to bring up my disdain for people? It’s relevant. I don’t like ordinary, boring people so obviously I’m not going to like an ordinary, boring character. Whatever its goal was, the film’s story didn’t move me. That was my fucking problem with it. I get your point about the everyman character, I even acknowledged that earlier, but it doesn’t work for me. I said that many times. I don’t need or want a scholarly assessment of the film to convince me how wrong I am about it. I don’t care if every single other person on this shithole planet likes that lead character, it doesn’t change that I didn’t.

For fuck’s sake.
