**The Core**. Why do people hate this movie? All you have to do is that old “suspension of disbelief” thing … I mean, why do people think that elves and gnomes and Darth Vader are believable, but tunneling through molten lava is implausible? Or landing a space shuttle in a drainage canal? Or restarting the rotation of the planet’s molten core with a few nukes? Hmm; I’m not helping my case much. Suffice to say, pay no attention to that physicist behind the curtain; just focus on the characters.

**A Knight’s Tale** First off, it’s just a good movie (‘change your stars’ and all that). Second, the DVD commentary is good.

I second and third _The Fifth Element, Joe vs the Volcano and Enemy of the State_.
