This movie has become a national phenomenon and I find the national response to the movie to be very strange. Bookstores have stocked up with the book and ads and commercials everywhere. I was in the bookstore finding amusement that the book was stocked up by the front door and wondering whether I cared enough to buy the book. This much older white man smiled and said "you'd love this book...it's REALLY good." I smiled and said "I heard!"

ETA: Ditto Black Swan. That was one of the worst movies ever. I hated it more than SATC2. I've sung this song on GC many times.

That YT made me laugh really hard because that's how the audience reaction was when I went to see it. That scene was just so unexpected.

Star Wars Episode II--Attack of the Clones.

Horrible, awful, watched it once in the theater and will never watch it again. Did I mention how downright terrible it was?

It was painful to watch it was so bad. I agree. I hated that movie.

Love the 1995 BBC version. If you haven't seen the remastered version, it is definitely worth the $$$.

1408 is on television. Add that to the list.

Sorry, but the television show was bad enough. I can't imagine sitting through 2+ hours of those over-sexed hags.

Don't even get me started on all Pirates of the Caribbean sequals.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Up
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Emma (the Gwenyth Paltrow version)

This is kind of reaching back a few decades, but:

The book Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe is amazing. AMAZING. The movie was cute, nicely done and well cast but didn't hold a candle to the book.

The movie version of The Prince of Tides. Streisand as Lowenstein? No. Just no.

Saw the stage versions Driving Miss Daisy and Steel Magnolias long before they hit the screen - and was pleasantly surprised with both adaptations.

DMD, especially - because the stage play is very minimalist - and I just knew Dan Ackroyd would suck as Boolie. Wrong. He nailed it.

I have gone to the movies since 1994, I swear.

Slumdog Millionaire. It seemed really exploitive to me, especially with all the Academy Award campaigning and then doubly so when it came out about how crappy the talent and locals were paid/rewarded for their participation. That made me despise it.

iAgree.

Harry Potter. I only saw the first one, and that's all it took for me not to want to see the others.

The English Patient-I just about fell asleep and I never do that during movies.

Ah, speaking of falling asleep...

The Silence of the Lambs. Borrrrrrrring.
