Freaking hilarious! I freaked out at that part, too. Everyone had the same reaction! How did you find that? That was the best!

I didn't like The Black Swan. That movie was so overrated, and I thought it was going to be so good.

I was kind of disappointed in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, too. It was okay, but not as good as I thought it was going to be.

Why did I get married too. I liked the first one, but with the second one, there were just too many phony scenes.

I fell asleep during Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (I even had to look the name up -- it was so boring that I couldn't remember the NAME).

I also did the same during Tropic Thunder. There were some funny moments, but I don't think it lived up to all the hype surrounding it.

I'm sure I will think of more. These are the ones that haven't faded from my mind yet.

I was looking up the audience reaction track from Grindhouse: Planet Terror and ran across that one. I thought that audience went a bit overboard lol

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?

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.
