If you're into End-times type movies and action/adventure, the plot SOUNDS good...actual application? Horrible.

Speaking of end times...

End of Days

Battlefield Earth (I wanted to kill my date after that...but since it was a first date.......I dumped her on the second....)

Glitter (WHY LORD WHHHYYYYY??)

Tie: Leonard part 6, and Pluto Nash ( I guess adding Ghost Dad would be throwing more feul on this list huh)

Jawd 3 D (trying to stifle a snicker now)

and Catwoman


Ok.....I will stop now


**coff** The Hills Have Eyes 1 and 2

Throughout THHE 1, I was waiting...waiting for something great to happen. Waiting for the 'Wow. This IS good.' to come...


I'm still waiting. I saw this movie when it first came out.


Still waiting...

my daughter LOVES catwoman. but at 6 1/2 you think pink shoes, purple tights, and a polka dot dress is fly, sooo....

unfortunately i did break down and buy this for her. but i swear it was preowned at blockbuster for like $5.99!

I HATED SAW. and house of wax.

I Spit On Your Grave. I could not sleep that night after watching the bathtub scene.

cheerfulgreek 08-12-2007 02:59 AM

I thought "The last Emperor" was horrible.

Very disturbing scene.

[quote=sigmanuzk;490034]Any lame ass chick movie on lifetime.

Don't pick on my lame chick movies on lifetime. My 2 brothers call them "stupid women in jeopardy movies." Yes, I'll resort to them and actually not enjoyed but have been mildly remotely entertained by a few of the supposed thrillers.

But when they are on, I can do without my younger brother's running commentary such as: "right, in she walks to a dark house when she knows a slasher killer wants her...or...does the lame woman ever check out a building before moving in so she doesn't find herself living with satan cultists for neighbors... or. ..why doesn't she just take off those stupid high heels and use them as a weapon?...." There are other TVs.

Worst movie: any American pie movie.
and agree with several of above: Vanilla Sky, after it ended my date and I just stared at each other. Maybe the movie is in a code.

I think you mean Serial Mom. The movie was bad, but knowing the various places it was taped was fun.

Agree with the haters of Vanilla Sky. Definitely one of those movies where you want those hours of your life back.

Not mentioned, but is completely horrifying: Last House on the Left (an old slasher movie).

DaemonSeid 08-13-2007 08:55 AM

Warning you all away from The Last legin coming out in the theater.....I had a screener I watched earlier in the summer and it was easily a bargain basement DVD...SAVE YOUR MONEY

Cardinal026 08-13-2007 11:44 AM

Mom and Dad Save the World. My boyfriend thinks its a masterpiece, and I find it awful. Thank goodness (for me!) its not on TV as much as it used to be :p

Is that the movie where the mom goes around killing people to relieve stress?? If it is, I found it quite charming. Sometimes, I think my mom would feel better if she killed someone. Anyway.....

SUPERTROOPERS is the absolute dumbest movie everrrrrrr!!! And, the sad thing is that every time all of my SAI sisters get together that's all anyone ever wants to watch.....

I will have to disagree with the Supertroopers...it's funny sh*t.

My list:
Threesome
Howard the Duck
Cabin Boy - I rented it with my mom back in the day, and we waited to laugh for the whole movie, but never did.
Premonition
Butterfly Effect
Eyes Wide Shut - I saw this with my cousin...we left thinking WTF?
The Cell...or anything with J Lo, except the wedding planner for some reason.
A.I. - Big ol' waste of time.
Pearl Harbor (except for the battle scene)
Aquamarine (I was sick and bored...it was so bad.)
Starship troopers
Life Aquatic
Jawbreaker
Natural Born Killers
Pumpkin
Anything with Freddie Prinze Jr.

shinerbock 08-13-2007 03:24 PM

PSA: "The Wicker Man" may be the worst movie ever (the recent version). For that reason, you should absolutely make a point of watching it.

Agreed!:) I remember being amused by this movie when I was younger...

I liked the scooby doo movies and the one with the models and the archeologist....I don't remember what it was called.

Starship troopers

i actually loved The Butterfly Effect...

The Cell was just plain wierd, but was neat to watch the costumes and makeup.

starship troopers is the nastiest movie EVER...i got tired of watching the gory nonsense, maybe because they overdid the entire thing.:( too much squirting and splashing ewww!

Siggy_lxvi 08-13-2007 05:53 PM

I hated Starship Troopers because it was an absolute hack-job on one of the greatest novels ever written.

ZetaPhi708 08-18-2007 01:05 PM

Any remake that makes you want to rent/buy the original better version...

Heh, anyone heard about the remake of Footloose with Zac Efron? I cringe in horror already...

Short List:
Battle Beyond the Stars ( famous for it's pregnant Enterprise look-a-like ship)
The Invasion
Skinwalkers
Star Wars Episode I ( we have Jar-Jar to thank for this.. )
CRASH ( the worse movie EVER to win the Best Picture Oscar )

That is about the funniest image I ever had about hated movies... :D

Snakes On A Plane. The BEST part is Samuel L. Jackson's line AT THE END--"I am tired of all these MoFo Snakes on this MoFo plane". The rest totally sucked...

Aeon Flux. Unless I was a dude/lesbian that loved Charlize Theron, I did not think anything was sexy about that film... Whassup with the character who has hands for feet and why does she have to be like a monkey?

SW:PM. Yeah it 'cuz of his poor actor direction that made the movie poorly received versus the original SW:NH. But one has to be a fan of the entire SW genre or sci fi in general.

Now, how come my dad got the good bootleg versions of 300 and Transformers?

He hasn't been ina movie since I dont think.....lol

and umm why ur dad got a bootleg 300 when it's out on DVD.....LOL

Transformers sure...but 300?


pssst...does he have rush hr 3 by chance yet?

sunnyhibiscus 08-20-2007 06:35 PM

The Fog (2005)- I liked the '79 version. The recent version is horrible, including the ending.

Problem Child 3- I like the first 2 Problem Child movies. But the third one sucks so back.

Home Alone 4- It's almost the same thing as the first one.

National Lampoon's Thanksgiving Vacation- Not funny! If this was made about the same time as the Christmas one, and if it were to have Chevy Chase in the Thanksgiving one, I beileve it would turn out a'okay. Also, in the movie, I don't understand about the short wearing stuff during Thanksgiving in Idaho. I believe it's too cold to be wearing shorts for Thanksgiving time in Idaho. I know it's fictional, but still...

Are you talking about the recent one with Nicole Kidman or the '75 version. I'm assuming you're talking about the Kidman version. I have never seen the 1975 version.

RU OX Alum 08-21-2007 01:35 PM

lord of the rings

what is the point of filming the book? you are supposed to adapt it to fit the new medium, it is not the directors job to film the book, that is an absurd notion.

Still, if you inisit on following the story exactly and film the book (i.e. make a boring film) then follow through with it, don't hollywoodize the ending to make it all happy and 45 minutes longer than it needs to be.

sageofages 08-21-2007 01:42 PM

anything slasher porn...

I am so sick of every hollywood studio type thinking the rest of the world gets their jollies off of dismemberment........
