Identity was good, but I forgot all about it! Runaway Jury was pretty good, but I didn't really like the overall purpose of the movie. I hate gun control, so that really turned me off. Otherwise, it was pretty good.

Hahaha, Right below my love of music is my love of movies.

I enjoy most movies, as long as they have like... a story, and arn't the based off mass-marketing bullshit. So, instead of listing all my favorite movies, which is a very long list... I'll list the ones that I truely hate... with a passion.

Movies that never should have been made.

Honorable Mention

From Justin to Kelly (The American Idol Movie)

What the crap guys... If your going to do a movie with a bunch of crappy covers, atleast get some "Real" celebrities to sing it. This movie makes me want to kill myself to escape the reality that it even exhists.

Bronze Metal

On The Line (The N*Sync Movie)

Not even hard core N*Sync fans wanted to see this. This movie didn't even last a week at the theater I was working at. You won't even find a copy of it in the Walmart cheap-ass DVD bin. You know why? Because this movie is more valueable in the trash can. Even the studioes knew better than to try and sell VHS copies of it, because it wouldn't have been worth their time.

Silver Metal

Crossroads (The Brittany Spears Movie)

No...
Just, No.

Gold Metal

Spice World (The Spice Girls' Movie)

I take this movie as a personal insult directed at each and every single American citizen on an individual from the Spice Girls themselves and the rest of Europe as a whole. As "Ginger Spice" once said... "My favourite word is "Existentialism". I can't say it and I'm not quite sure what it means." This movie was written by a metally handicaped kid in a wheelchair, they stuck a nest full of angry hornets under his helmet and then told him to write a movie for "The Spice Girls", and this is what came out.

The World Record Holder
The Crappiest Movie.... EVER!

The Blair Witch Project

This movie wasn't scary at all, it was just a continuious string of the word "Fuck." Why would anyone want to sit there and watch 3 teenagers cuss for a couple of hours? This movie doesn't even end, it just kinda stops.

Congratulations Blair Witch Project, you've won this jar of urine... Drink up, pal... you earned it.

zoolander- what could i say...

butterfly effect- great idea that was carried really well

2001-space oddessy-give it a chance

nightmare before christmas-super ultra sweet

a christmas story- good holiday comedy-leg lamp!!

The Incredibles

Finding Nemo-both good disney movies

Matrix-keyono reeves or however you spell it, cant take that guy seriously ever since his bill and teds exelent/bogus journy/adventure, yes those are two movies that started keono off as an actor and kinda made him a bad name in my book

The Rocky Horror Picture Show- cult film.. nothing else to be said

And the best movie ever,

The one i'm writing the screen play for right now. i like to make movies and this one will be really good.

It's Keanu. And Bill and Ted were great movies. He didn't get a bad name for it, it's actually one of his movies that he's well-known and liked for.

What the?! BR 2 was a horrible excuse for a sequel. I enjoyed the anti-america stance it took (OMG I HATE UHMEREECA) but all the stupid logic, teenage angst, and downright horrible acting detracted from any message it was trying to spead.

Of course, these are just my feelings, feel free to discuss.

They had Famass though, which = cool. I just like pretty much any Japanese movie because I expect some cheeziness and cheapness from pretty much all Japanese movies. So I can look past the majority of bad acting.

I didn't like it b/c of gun control. I'm really into law and lawyer movies so I thought it was awesome.

A tie between The Princess Bride and anything Wes Anderson.

Tarantino is the most overhyped man in all the world.

Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels. There is truly no other movie. Sorry.

1~Gladiator
2~The Last Samurai
3~We were soldiers
4~Blackhawk Down
5~Airplane...It's a classic...
6~Monty Python and the quest for the holy grail...Antother classic

That's all I can think of.
Notice how like nobody put down LOTR?
You'd think that'd be someones favourites.

They were good movies, I'll give em that. But I wouldn't say they're on my favorites list. Thus far, nothing is toppling the Crow and The Last Samurai.

... I can accept that reasoning.

It's a pretty sad state of affairs when one can rationalize crappiness in a japanese movie because all japanese movies are crappy.

Name some specific movies that you guys feel are crappy. How many Japanese movies have you actually watched?


And I agree with built-to-spill in that Tarantino is so massively overhyped.

Let's look at the movies he's directed (from IMDB)

Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004) -sucked
Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003) -sucked. I almost just walked out of the theater on this one
Jackie Brown (1997) -never seen
Four Rooms (1995) (segment "The Man from Hollywood") -never seen
Pulp Fiction (1994) -his one and only decent film
Reservoir Dogs (1992) -BORING
My Best Friend's Birthday (1987) -never seen


So out of all of these movies he's only made one decent one. Bah.

Eh, I've watched a fair amount. But, now that I think about it, many of which were directed by Takashi Miike, who for the most part is a crappy director.

So I guess I should replace "crappy japanese movies" with "crappy Takashi Miike movies".

Sorry for the mix-up.

That's probably because he churns them out one after another. IMDB credits him with over 60 movies directed in a 14 year timespan...

I think Kill Bill is over-rated. I mean, it was alright, but not uber exciting. I havn't seen pulp fiction, but Resovoir Dogs was alright, at least I thought so when I saw it years ago.
