I understand, Coz, and to an extent can agree. Acting and film-making has evolved dramatically, but not always for the best (which is why MST3K could've gone on forever if the SyFy channel didn't blow frogs). For me, the bottom line is whether or not it can make me forget that I'm watching a movie or an actor playing a role - regardless of whether or not the acting is stilted.

Am I making sense?
