Princess Mononoke still stands as the only movie to ever put me to sleep.

I think I am going to have to go with Hercules in New York. That movie was simply awful!

I think I am going to have to go with Hercules in New York. That movie was simply awful! Well, with Ahnold's voice being dubbed, and such dialog as: "Bucks? Dough? I have had enough of this zoological nonsense!" How can you go wrong? |

It sucked that's how I could say I didn't like the film. I would also have to say that "Dude, where's my car," also, was horrendous! A grade-A piece of absolute shit!

How about The Crow: City of Angels? Actual quote from yours truly thirty minutes into the movie:
Me: I wish I was in a bear trap right now.
Friend: why's that?
Me: So I could gnaw my leg off and we could get the hell out of here!

Well, since we're talking about movies that suck, I won't argue about Brazil here, But I will say that Ararat had me scratching my head.

Haha! That movie had a purpose. The continuity of the story was awful, yes, but it does introduce people to the complexity of the Armenian genocide. I don't know of very many other movies that even deal with the topic. Moreover, the movie had a very post-modern feel to it, and are you actually surprised that there the continuity would be off when they essentially argue that there is no such thing as reality?

I felt that way about "Brazil" as well... That movie was awful! Wrong. That movie is a masterpiece although I could see why you personally dislike it; you probably mistook it for "The Boys From Brazil" and spent the whole film trying to figure out when Hitler was going to show up. Anything in the Fast and Furious franchise. While not art the first film targeted niche audience of young males similar to films of the 60's and 70's. The third film (Tokyo Drift) actually tried to reach TOO far and should've stuck to one storyline but was also innovative because it presented the concept of changing difficulties in popular culture and even, in its essence, nods at the pointlessness of the series. The newest film was servicable by all accounts. I think that Roger Ebert (whom I generally dislike) hit it right on the head; these films aren't meant to have a point but, instead, to entertain. rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20110428/REVIEWS/110429986Personally the most over-rated film in several years is, hands down, with no possible argument, Paranormal Activity. |

I can honestly say that I have never seen any of the other movies besides the first one. I saw the first one while I was staying with some family in Utah, and I can honestly say that I don't think I have missed a whole lot.

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.  Should rename it to "Johnny Depp acting like an oafish ass for an hour and a half, while they try to shoehorn some Christian like religion in" |
