Jurassic Park, that movie is scary, funny, and a thriller all in one

AI.......Artificial Intelligence....saw it on the upper east side....people lost their mind when Mommy does that thing at the picnic...it builds from the odd murmur when someone figures out what she is going to do...then a chorus of whispers as they tried to deny what was now inevitable...and finally when the boy on the screen finally figures it out...it exploded into a roar....people started throwing things at the screen...people left the movie...not since Deer Hunter, have I seen such a reaction to a film...people left the theater as if they had been nailed with a cattle prod....subdued...drained....
there was no laughter...no one was jumping up and down talking about how Spielberg had finally grown up and left behind his cookie cutter mentality....nothing...silence...
So I am not really shocked that people started with that "what did he need aliens in the movie for"? and "Kubrick would have made this movie a classic and he never would have included aliens".
It was a movie experience unlike anything in recent years...and the few of us who got the ending were looking at one another and asking things like "Is there something in the water?"
or "what movie did we watch?" or "Where do they see aliens in AI?".
When those of us who 'got' the movie came down off our high horsed superiority...we finally...and truly got it.
Jude Law says to Hayley..."We are suffering for the mistakes they made because when the end comes, all that will be left is us. That's why they hate us, and that is why you must stay here, with me."
I get it. Now. I finally get it. It has been a lesson a long time coming...a life changer...a good thing...
makes clear something my grandma used to tell me about the futility of denial...sometimes the people who get a thing...are not just the ones who see it clearly...sometimes the ones who get it deepest...pretend not to get it at all.
On the subject of denial...grandma used to say..."Toss a stone into a pack of mutts...the one who yelps... is the one who got hit..."
Besides...I am a Child of The Secret...
I know what it is to look into the eyes of the Goddess and not see my own reflection. I wept at the end of AI. I have been waiting a couple decades for Spielberg to update his operating system.
AI knocked me on my ***. Monica at their picnic knocked me on my ***. David sitting in the corner while Monica reads to her 'son' in bed...knocks me on my ***...David asking his descendants at the end of the movie to bring back his mommie for a day...with the knowledge that he has unfinished buisness...that needs be resolved...that knocked me on my ***...
whole bloody movie knocked me on my ***.
AI...my favorite Spielberg movie.

Either Duel, Close Encounters or Jaws. He hasn't made much good since then.

Jaws. I'm a great swimmer but when I saw this I wouldn't even go in the shallow end.
