I'll bet most "people" (pedestrian-moviegoers) would have had worse reactions to it had it been one 3+hour epic that they couldn't quite understand, as opposed to the two shorter films which they will not understand.

Pulp Fiction was quite close to being 3 hours long, and many people felt that it was a REALLY awesome film. I rarely hear people disliking this movie.

At least in this neck of the woods (that neck being ever-so red), it feels like people aren't very huzzah about the film (LIKE THEY SHOULD BE) and are instead kinda "oh it's ok" or "it's not my type of movie" except for the friends of mine who are true film appreciaters. You'd have to see it to know what I mean, but the ending of Vol. I, to me, was very satisfying. I don't know why all the hubbub.

You can't say that people SHOULD like a film or not. Granted I haven't seen it yet, it's unfair to say that disliking a film makes your opinion less valid or etc etc etc. I think you get at what I'm trying to say.

FYI - über means above, not super, for future reference.
