OK, I'm really kind of tired of this. Here we are almost SMACK in the middle of 2008, which is supposed to be one of the biggest years for films in a while, but so far things have either been AMAZING or just awful. I believe it comes down to a science in "Every Great Movie we get; it needs to be answered by 5 Terrible Films". That is not a good ratio for filmgoers, trust me. Case in point:
Cloverfield to Doomsday, Drillbit Taylor, Never Back Down, Jumper, 10,000 BC
Iron Man to Speed Racer, Forbidden Kingdom, The Strangers, Redbelt, and sadly, Indiana Jones 4
Why can't we revert to the days when films were still bad, but at least watchable. I can barely count the times I catch myself yelling at the screen and how it has tricked me into wasting yet another 2 hours of my life. At this rate, the next 12 big films have to be OUTSTANDING in order for this ratio to be balanced, and I still have a shred of faith.

I'm with you, Matt, pretty much. But, if I'm reading this right (and I'd like to think I am) you're saying you liked Cloverfield.
