Dude!!! how can you possibly add “fight club” and “spy game” in this!
The premise on which such movies are to be judged you have clarified in your opening statement.
“These movies are not necessarily the classics or Oscar winners” – “Most importantly, these are not the kind of movies that you would boast as your favourite movies while trying to impress a girl”
Fight club and spy game definitely do not fall in this category- in fact neither does vicky christina barcelona. Other than that i do agree with the substance of the article and “devil wears prada” I totally empathise with!
P.s.- wenever u r wela do meet!

My guilty pleasures are in the “Tirangaa” / “Hotel” (Ramsay Brothers) / “16 December” / “Dulhe Raja” level. (And I’m only talking Hindi movies. Of course, there’s stuff like “Amma naana oka tamilammayi”, “Jagadekaveerudu Atilokasundari” in Telugu, “Arunachalam”, “Muthu”, “Avasara Police” (starring Silk Smitha and my favourite Bhagyaraj) etc in Tamil…

In fact, at a star wedding I recently attended, I got so excited when I saw Bhagyaraj that I had to get a photo with him. I think even he was surprised by so much attention from someone from my generation.

Either I’m not intellectual enough, or I’m not hanging around with women who are intellectual enough, but “Midnight in Paris” and “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” surely don’t fall within this definition, “these are not the kind of movies that you would boast as your favourite movies while trying to impress a girl or while pretending to have an intellectual conversation with your co-workers.”

Sigh. And here I was, thinking I’m being posh watching these movies and knowing vague trivia about them. Guess I’ll have to actually sit down and watch those Tarkovskys now.
