The movies that you hate but everyone else loves

I'll start, the following are not in order:

- Titanic (I don't even want to comment on it)
- Vanilla Sky (one of the worst movies on my list, the movie should be over when Tom Cruise crashed his car. They tried to make it a SciFi/Drama/thriller and I don't think any of these work at all)
- The 6th sense (boring!!! It's so obvious that he was dead in the first place! I think it's supposed to be a suspence movie but I don't feel any of it.)
- Unbreakable (20 times worse than the 6th sense, I have no idea why I actually wasted 2 hours watching that movie)
- A.I. (it's a total insult to Kubrick.)
- Chocolate (it's a good book, but I don't know what happened to the movie adaptation.)
- Matrix (a futuristic illustration of Jesus, big f*cking deal)
- Harry Potter (again, the special effect is pretty good, but the books are a thousand times better!!)

That's it for now, I got a lot more but can't think of them right now. These are just my personal opinion, so people who loves any of the movies that I've mentioned, please do not be offended or trying to convince me how great those movies are, because they're merely my personal preferences. cool?

Enjoyed the last 2 agree with you on the others.

I hated Sweet Home Alabama.. Sappy and predictable. My girlfriend even hated it.

I definitely hated:
-Eyes Wide Shut
-Magnolia
-Vanilla Sky

Do you see a pattern here?

The one that instantly comes to my mind is Groundhog Day. I don't know if a lot of people love it, but one of my friends loves it and I hate it.

First movie that comes to mind is "Mars Attacks" I swear that is the worst movie ever, but all my friends try to convince me that it is really good. One of my pledge brothers even says that it is his favorite movie of all time which makes me want to throw up.

Beverly Hills Cop - I saw it after all the hype and was like "what is the big deal"?

The Sixth Sense - YAWN!

Silence of the Lambs - see Sixth Sense

The Graduate - yes I know it was the sixties, but this movie has really not aged well at all and takes itself far too seriously. I'll take "Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice" anyday over this dreck.

Austin Powers... all of them. Sure they're sort of kind of funny, but I just can't get into them.

Full Metal Jacket - I lived across the hall from a guy who played the first half of the movie at full blast EVERY NIGHT
Titanic - Garbage
Fast & the Furious - For two months straight, it was on the TV in our basement constantly
Goldmember - The second one was barely good enough
40 Days and 40 Nights - My sister loves this movie, I couldn't even finish it.

UKDaisy · #13 02-13-2003, 01:06 PM

Okay my least favorite movie is everybody else's favorite movie

Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
I HATE IT!! I think its stupid, I don't understand when the guy loses his arms and leg why he says "its merely a flesh wound" and everybody laughs. Even though I love J. Clease I can't sit through this movie. GRRRRRRR!!!

Sorry to those that love the movie!

*Vanilla Sky - oh puhleeze...it sucked.

*Monty Python (anything)- yeah, yeah, I get the jokes, but still it's a waste of time.

*Fast and the Furious- Sorry, I'm more of a Gone in 60 Seconds kinda girl, I like real cars.

*Titanic, yes, I was that one girl laughing when Leo went down under

*Star Wars- I like Yoda and the Wookie, but that's about it.

*Diehard (insert #) I can't sit through them long enough...

.....but somehow...I love Kevin Smith movies..and a good deal of the public just doesn't get them...muhahaha

Any stupid "romantic" comedy with the same plot that has been done over and over in other better movies, where someone has made a bet to seduce someone else, or made a bet to stop being involved with someone, basically where two people spend 90 minutes doing stupid slap stick comedy and FINALLY find out that they love each other, when that equation could have been figured out in the first 10 minutes of the film!
