No law that says you have to hate it either. Maybe I'll watch it and hate it, maybe not, but until then...

Agreed.

I'm kinda happy that Babylon bombed at the box office. Bombed right? Not "underperformed". Not "didn't meet expectations". Bombed. Right? Anyway, something about it rubbed me the wrong way. It'll probably still win some awards though. Can't get everything you want.

What happened in 1989? If you mean women went to work, well, my mom was working full-time outside the house (at the Crayola factory!) since 1971.
