I'd like to hear more specifically what people feel is stifling about the ORID method. 

But I disagree with Randy that it is a method for teaching rather than learning. One of my most common usages of the methodology is the birthday conversation. As the facilitator (asker of the questions), there is nothing I am teaching -- what could I possibly teach? It is all about listening as the other person reflects on their year.

When used to reflect on a movie, I also have always experienced it as a group learning experience -- learning what we learned from the movie.
