Steven Spielberg ALWAYS Puts SCREAMING Little Girls In His Movies
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial

Jurassic Park

War of the Worlds


And those are only the few I can think of off the top of my head.

It's freakin' annoying. Is there anything worse than a little girl's high-pitched scream? It's one of but many reasons why Spielberg's WOTW was a bad movie, in my opinion.

1. He also likes to make the

audience jump with
sudden, in-your-face close ups
of something/someone.

That is annoying!

Otherwise, his movies are good.

2. I was really hoping the Martians would get that kid.
The movie pretty much sucked anyway, but that screeching was unbearable. I'm like, come on, Martians, EAT the damn kid, and the sooner the better.

I was like "Ahh! Eat her! Eat her! Push her up into that giant suction thing with that robot arm! Anything to make Dakota Fanning shut up!"

4. Come to think of it, he did that in "Saving Private Ryan."
In "Empire of the Sun," too.

I can't remember if he did it in "Schindler's List." Maybe. I don't recall.
