OK, I'm going to say it: they're both kinda crap movies, in their own special ways. Neither plot got beyond semi-coherent. And, oy, some dialogue clunkers.
But they are both amazing comfort movies. I love Big Exciting Action Movies That Go Boom! and FTF is absolutely that, in a nutshell. And IWTB is like a meh MoTW but with TONS of shippy goodness, which makes my little mushy heart sing. And I find the IWTB-verse really interesting, as evidences that I keep writing in it.
IWTB I saw twice in the theater, and would have seen more but my family is lose. I've seen it twice on DVD since I bought it. FTF I must have seen in the theater, but probably only once; apart from that, I've seen it a few times on cable, but haven't actually ever popped the DVD in just to see it. I'm sure I will at some point...
