Oz, The Great & Powerful.

It didn't add to the story. It was a visual effects display, nothing more. Plus, they got some traditional things wrong (Glinda is the witch of the NORTH), and I hated that tiara and most of Glinda's wardrobe.

Anything directed/written by Wes Anderson.

Anything with Seth Rogen. (I was going to say anything with Judd Apatow's fingerprints on it, but he did Anchorman.)

I've never really been big on "Rocky" movies. They're just too unrealistic. Every last one of those "Rocky" fights would have been stopped in the first round in real life (Rocky being the loser).

Ditto.

Cabin Fever. Worst movie EVER. I can't remember who told me to go see it as that was almost 10 years ago but I'm still mad at him/her!

More often than not I like Wes Anderson's & Judd Apatow's work, just when they lay a bomb they really lay a doozy.

Every few weeks, someone tells me that I will !!LOVE!! Office Space. I tried and got through about 15 minutes. Likewise with Zoolander.

I HATED Four Weddings and a Funeral. All through that movie, I was like, "Gawd, these two effing annoying people need to get together, shut up, and leave the rest of the world alone."

Loathed Moonstruck. I went on a first date once where early on, he mentioned that Moonstruck was his favorite movie. First and last date, that.

Any Monty Python. I have seen one or two and just did.not.get.it.

Blazing Saddles. I laughed to tears at History of the World Part I, but no idea why Blazing Saddles did nothing for me.

Did not see why people found Slap Shot hilarious, but it was recommended to be by a BIG hockey fan, so maybe that was it.

I'm not a big movie watcher in general, though. Too many of them are too depressing. If I'm paying good money to be entertained, I want to be chortling the whole time.

Fargo. I didn't hate it, by any means, but I DO NOT GET why it is considered some sort of masterpiece. It's not even my favorite Coen Brothers film.

Thank you!

I don't get it, either. Any time I casually say, "It's ok..," people flip out and tell me how crazy I am for not loving that movie.

The Talented Mr. Ripley

It just seemed pointless
