> FP: I am totally against rated R movies. It depends on the movie. If it is rated R because they use profanity and vulgar words, I prefer not to watch it. I prefer movies that appeals to my intellect and stimulates my curiosity.
Sometimes the most intellectually appealing and stimulating movies have some cuss words in them.
> FP: A Beautiful Mind had just as much Sci-Fi in it as Moth Man had. It is just as much of a Sci-Fi movie as Twilight Zone and Outer Limits is Sci-Fi. I don't understand because I don't see that much of a difference. I am trying to understand why you say A Beautiful Mind is not Sci-fi?
What was sci-fi in it, specifically? It was a true story about a man with schizophrenia. His delusions were all "real", as in they weren't made up by a movie company. His mathematical equations were all real...
