How much influence does Bluelight Film & Television Forum have on you?

[fengtau]

Yeah, so how much influence does it have on your DVD purchase? I was at the mall yesterday and saw "The Alamo" DVD. I am sure I would have bought it if I did not read it somewhere here that it sucked.

What about you? Does bluelighters' movie/tv taste have any influence on your selection?

somewhat ill pay it more attention if i see it mentioned on here.

i trust BLer's reviews more than the actual critics. there are several people on here who seem to have similar tastes in movies as me...

if there is a movie i really want to see, i will see it regardless of what people say on here. but if there is a movie i am on the fence about, i will take into account people's reviews. or if i am trying to decide between two movies, i will keep in mind what i have read here.

While I don't give the BL film forum as much weight as I do other forums on specialised film review sites, I do appreciate most of the opinions given here. Add to that the fact that there has actually been a name or two I grabbed here first and was quite happy with the outcome, and what we get is an important ingredient in SillyAlien's "what to watch tonight" stew. Thanks for all of your contributions.

for movies that i'm on the fence about seeing, especially new releases, the Film forum often pushes me one way or the other. other than that, some of the discussion about movies for which i have already found an appreciation is useful in finding new ways to enjoy that movie or find things i hadn't noticed before.

there have also been times where people have mentioned some film classics that i had not heard of, which has caused me to rent some movies that i otherwise would not have seen. this is especially true for old genres.

in terms of individual posters, there are a handful of people who seem to enjoy almost the exact same films that i do, and i place a lot of trust in these people's opinions when it comes to viewing decisions.

It's definitely a place I go to see others' opinions on various films I've seen or would like to see. I know I've definitely seen movies I've seen mentioned here that I had never heard of, and generally been pretty pleased with the recommendations, whether specifically recommended or I just saw someone mention a particular film. Like a few others have already said, there are some folks who post here that have a surprisingly similar taste in film as I.

I will not watch a porno unless it is Bluelight-approved.
