Sure. Just keep telling yourself that, and go back to Norbit.

I don't understand why you immediately assume that he enjoys something like Norbit just because he didn't like Fritz the Cat? Isn't that a big jump?

its better to watch on drugs, or knowledge of drugs.

It is a satire behind the ideas of the "revolution" people used to proclaim in the 60's. It's a contexual movie. If you don't understand what it was like back then, you won't appreciate how the movie plays out. Admittedly, I was not in the 60's myself, but research and a second viewing helped me to appreciate the movies power.

The views that people had in the 60s and early 70s are starting to return today, unfortunately people such as the original poster don't give a damn.

You really need to be open minded to understand this movie, as well as have a knowledge of the time (or atleast the views people had at the time).

If that fails, you should have atleast been entertained by the animal sex and pig penises =\

TOO MUCH HAIR!! CANNOT SEE!! CANNOT SEEEEE!!!

Yeah, whatever. This movie rules! Liked it even better than Heavy Metal, and that's one of my all time favs.

No one told you to watch it! It's a great flick!

I'm big on the history of the '60s, understood what the film was trying to do, and I appreciate it for what it did. However, that doesn't mean I have to like it. And I'll agree with the poster who said that just because someone doesn't like this film doesn't automatically mean that they'd like movies such as "Norbit."
