Bad Movies

[cantdog]

Mr. and Mrs. Bridge is just awful. But very boring.

Flatliners.

Titanic, the one with Kate Winslet and Wossisname, Leo. Slow paced, predictable, poorly done.

How about those teen angst movies? Ferris Bueller's Day Off, or whatever it was? Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and on and on?

Gates of Hell has been mentioned, but I'll mention it again. Any Mothra movie or Godzilla epic.

Fantastic Journey, the one where they shrink to submicroscopic size and travel inside a human body fro some completely daft reason.

S.O.B. a movie entirely concerned with a bogus buildup to exposing Julie Andrews's tits. God. But that's way boring, too.

Yeah ... you just knew that ship would sink in the end

I'd have to recommend a John Waters-fest meself. But then again, I'm a bit odd...

- Mindy, who can recount both Hairspray and (especially) Cry Baby word for word

Mindy.. hairspray and polyester.. both with Divine.. (classics)

What? No "Santa Claus Defeats the Aliens"????

That's Martians, not just generic Aliens...<g>

I love the League of Extraordinary gentlemen, loved the premise

I know, I love looking at the pictures on the wall and figuring out who made up earlier incarnations of the League...but, read the comic...much better characterizations and more intricate storyline...<g>

Titanic, the one with Kate Winslet and Wossisname, Leo. Slow paced, predictable, poorly done.

I'll watch almost any high-budget period movie, for the sets, the costumes...They appeal to the frustrated traveler in me, and they're the ideal mindless diversion - nothing to remind us of now.

So I admit, I enjoyed Titanic. But the win for "best screenplay" was a joke. Who talks like that? Please!

Fantastic Journey, the one where they shrink to submicroscopic size and travel inside a human body fro some completely daft reason.

Oh yes. That one ought to share a shelf with Journey To the Center of the Earth.

OFFICE SPACE.

The funniest movie ever made about the corporate world. She has a secondary role, and since the direction is absolutely deadpan, she does fine.

Not everyone knew. A co-worker asked me, the day after seeiing Titanic, "Did that really happen?"

 

[tiger_smurf]

Ferris Bueller's Day Off is a classic. Teen angst? Are you kidding?

And why does Titanic get such a bad rap? It has seemingly become cool to dislike that movie, and I'll admit it wasn't perfect, but it wasn't bad either. Maybe everyone just had unreasonable expectations considering the budget and the amount of awards it won? I'm not ashamed to say that I liked it.

 

[Dennis13]

Alright, who said Rocky Horror Picture Show was a bad movie?!?! I know a bunch of other people who like it too!

speaking of Titanic, had Leo ever made a good movie?
I didn't care for Catch me if You Can or for Titanic. Was Gang of New York any good?

Isn't it amazing how now that they're all past their prime Seagal, Van Damme and Stallone barely get any credit for good movies?

 

[Guest]

Was Gangs of New York any good?

It's flawed but brilliant. DiCaprio and C. Diaz should not have been in it (really boring acting). Day Lewis was terrific.

I really hated Ferris Bueller, mostly because I don't like movies like that. Here is this kid, who is basically a bum and a nogood who goofs off and not only gets away with it, he benefits from it. Everything he did spread destruction and he got away with it. I had no sympathy for the principal, who was just an asshole anyhow, but I did feel for the buddy and the sister, who were innocents who got hurt.

I love Daniel Day Lewis! "Last of the Mohicans" is a favorite.

Not his best, of course, but they can't all be... gotta like the space herpy

 

[ABSTRUSE]

What about him in "My Left Foot" and "A Room with a View''?
He's hunkdillicious!

Most definitely! But, I have this thing for long hair....

First off, Office space was not a bad movie, it was jsut funny as hell. If you want a bad movie, i HIGHLY recommend you rent part of the series of Mystery Science Theater 3000 episodes, or the movie they did. It was a cable show done in Minnesota in the 90s. They show the worst movies of all time (such as the Pod People, Manos: The Hands of Fate, and This Island Earth). Then you see the outlines of the 3 hosts (a guy and two robots) and hear them making fun of the movie through the whole thing. It's like watching a bad movie with a gorup of loud freinds, but ones who are insanely funny and who know loads of pop culture references. These movies are totally Money if you wanna see a bad movie.

The book sucked, but the movie is good. Is the man hot or is the man hot? Wo!

You know what else is hot? That scene in the English Patient where the Sikh is washing his hair with the oil the chick gave him... He has this little thing where you see him from the back and his hair tumbles down over his naked musculature... I've never watched that scene without hearing every woman in the room make a collective "uhn--!" noise.

It gets them. Right by the gonads.

One place the movie Mohicans sucked was when the French commander asks, "why do you hate the Yellow Hair, Magua?" and all Magua can say in explanation is, "I will kill his daughters, so he will kbnow they suffered and so he will know when he dies that his seed will not live after him...." with details.

You just wanna shake the dude and say, "Yeah, but why do you hate the fuckin Yellow Hair? Answer the fuckin question!" But he doesn't. The book does, but it is boring parenthetical backstory, something Fenimore Cooper does a lot.

The Natty Bumppo stories are rich good story lines, and Fenimore Cooper writes so badly that they are lost in his schmaltz and Victorian circumlocution.

But Day-Lewis has a strong sexual aura no matter who he plays on screen.

Oh yeah. He cranks my tractor, that's for damn sure! I think "Last of the Mohicans" was the first movie I saw him in, and I'm a fan for life now.

Cant, I'm glad you mentioned Magua. I thought him sexier than DDL. After the film a friend said, God wasn't he ugly? I was stunned. I can understand it somewhat, pockmarked face, supposedly the bad guy, etc., but he was one of the most masculine figures I've ever seen on the screen. DDL is an actor, very good, but I know it's just images he presents. Wes Study (Magua) I'm certain I'd like as well in real life.

The English Patient film was crap to me, just too too precious about nothing. I do like Ontjate (sp?) the writer though.

ANY movie starring Martin Lawrence is a lousy movie. Pathetic Eddie Murphy-wannabe!

I love Mystery Science Theater. I want to do the same kind of show, only with a porn theme.

 

[SnoopDog]

Really bad movies that are a lot of fun ?
What about
- 'Bill & Ted' 1 and 2 (really some bad and stupid script and effects but major fun)
- Braindead (if you like Evil Dead then go for Peter Jackson's classic)
- Meet The Feebles (it's bad, it's gore, it's political incorrect, it's gross, it's fun)
- 'Shriek if you know what I did last summer' (a fun spoof like Scary Movie just much worse)
- 'Don't Be A Menace' (like Shriek, only spoofing gangsta' movies)

Oh and by the way, I love the idea of a 'Bad Movie' night. Me and some friends considered to have a video night only with movies that one of us hated, that could be fun for the others We never did it

Okay a new one for you. Club Dread. Terrible movie. It had two redeeming features in it. Naked tits, and they were real, not the overgrown monsters normal in this type of movie.
EuroTrip was actually pretty good. It had a story line, T&A, and for the wife it even had some full frontal male nudity.

Boxing Helena.

If you haven't seen it, DON'T! This movie has NO redeeming qualities and should be used in place of naughty picture threats to get prisoners/detainees the world over to talk, simply to spare them from having to see it again.

No bad day in history warrants a viewing of this flick.
