Only one page of discussion and all in 2016?
Did they erase all the old threads from this movie? Pathetic.
shareYeah, you're right. Don't they clear up old threads? This means all of Samantha's posts are gone, lol. She used to,spend her life defending Mortensen's movies against anyone who dared to criticize anything about them, lol! There were some epic battles in here, all gone now, 😉.

When the film came out there were a number of discussions -- some more serious than others 😃 -- about it, and if I recall there were over a thousand posts before IMDB deleted them, more than once. Most of the fights were between those who loved the "Old Cronenberg" and those who liked his more recent work better. Some were self-styled "Cronenberg scholars," who seemed to like to attack anyone with a different opinion of the film, which of course is one thing these boards are for, except that thy didn't seem able to keep discussions civil. Then there were the ones who failed to understand the film at all. Some of most vehement ones commented at great length but then admitted they either hadn't seen the film at all or hadn't watched it all the way through. And there were many good discussions, too, but those were deleted as well.
Wplains1 is one who just didn't get it, and kept trying to diss everybody who did. She said sarcastically that she must be "just stupid" so many times that some of us stopped being nice and finally agreed with her, at which point she began her endless personal attacks instead of trying to talk about a film she admitted she hadn't seen in its entirety.
As is apparent, she has not lost her taste for those personal attacks. And I suspect she still hasn't seen the film. 😃
Wrong, I did see it unfortunately. One of the stupidest films i ever saw, a total waste of my time. Still at it I see Sam -- is Mortensen still paying you a salary? While you were gone, he seems to have lost all his fans.

Same poor, pathetic old thing. 😃 Some folks grow, some just get older. And some resort to ridiculous emoticons, as the young kids do.
