The Ring DVD

I picked up the DVD version of The Ring when it came out this Tuesday. Its one of my favorite movies of last year, so I really wanted a copy. Anyways, buying that copy brought a huge discussion at work.

There is this co worker of mine and basically, he is the BIGGEST WUSS I have ever met. There's no other way to describe him...he is every stereotype of a computer geek: shy, quiet, no confidences, and a total wimp, who will NOT watch anything remotely considered a scary movie. And he wont watch The Ring, even though its only a PG 13 movie.

Now, I dont really mind if he doesn't want to see it (I did offer to lend it to him) but what got me was he did everything he can to find out everything about the movie including its story, plot and ending, without watching the movie. He went on the internet and tried to uncover all the secret of the movie. Now, this I thought was WRONG. I mean, I think The Ring is an awesome movie and should be experienced as a movie for the first time. And he was really ruining the movie for himself but also cheating himself, in a sense that he would NOT confront his fears of scary movies. He actually kept bugging me to tell him everything about the movie and I told him he just needs to watch it. It was really pathetic.

Anyways, what REALLY pissed me off is that someone at work decided to tell him all about the movie. Everything. Not only that, he told it to a group of ppl who haven't seen it also and ruined it for them. Not only that, he also told the secrets of The Ring 2 (japanese version). WHY did he do that? I even told him off after because I knew he did it because of some superiority complex that he has. What an asshole....
