I'll start by saying I haven't read this entire thread. The subjectiveness of what movies I myself like, will differ with everyone else, or maybe we might sometimes agree on one in particular. What has always irked me is not that someone well versed in ancient Mayan culture has a problem with a particular scene in Apocalypto, for example, because sometimes, that comes from a real academic approach, but rather, movies that pass themselves off as being authentic, and true to the "real" story, that are anything but! Titanic was among the worst offenders of this-I remember them going on and on about the historical accuracy, when you didn't have to be an expert to know that so much of it was utter bullshit. By and large, I am always dubious of "historical" movies, but I also know that sometimes, you just have to let it go and try and enjoy the movie, and enjoy the silliness. Now, that being said, don't get me started on The Perfect Storm.....
