Default Movies you HATE!

What movies do you really hate!

I can only think of three I despised last year.
The Hours - the only interesting thing about that film was Nicole Kidman's fake nose. I spent the entire movie wondering when it would fall off. Pretentious and horrible.

The Recruit and Daredevil - yes, the Colin Farrell factor. The Recruit was one of the most stupid movies I've ever seen. Why the hell was Pacino slumming it in this trash, while Daredevil... Ben Affleck in red leather, need I say more? The least exciting superhero movie ever made.

I'm sure I'll think of plenty more...

Spaced Inavders lol...I was young when I saw this and STILL hated it, it's the first (and to my memory only) movie I've ever walked out on.

Sirens...with Hugh Grant, I just couldn't get into it at all...

Thumbs down Uhh....

National Lampoons Senior Trip - I made the mistake of seeing this as a teen with my parents and it was just filthy. Talk about wanting to slide down in your seat. LOL

Signs - The buildup was HUGE for this movie, but I felt the payoff was a disappoinment.

Any movie with Tom Cruise or Adam Sandler. Bleck!!!

Exclamation Hmmm....

Shawshank Redemption-Overblown & over-rated

Bull Durham-More like Bull****...

Star Trek 3, 4, 5 & Generations-Awful acting from William "Wide load, bad toupee & wife killer" Shatner...

"Titanic"-Ship shoulda sunk in the first 3 minutes of the movie and saved me the pain of watching utter crap

Any comedic movie done released by "Dis-Knee" the past twenty years

The Cat and The Hat.

Pluto Nash- Eddie Murphy's only bad movie out of many great ones.

I really like most movies. I'm not as picky with movies as I am with music.

Anything with J-Ho, except "Selena" - the awesome music made up for HER presence, and Edward James Olmos saved the film. Besides, she wasn't creating a character, only imitating one...

The English Patient. I was not surprised to see Seinfeld do an entire episode on just how bad this movie was. I think it was one of those either love it or hate it things. I hated it. I thought it would be one of those movies I just love-you know some grand, sweeping epic like Out of Africa. Boy, was I wrong! I just wanted them all to die so I could be put out of my mystery!

My 2nd runner-up is Eyes Wide Shut. What a piece of crap!

I won't make any friends by posting this (When do I? ), but two that come to mind are Ghostbusters and The Wizard Of Oz. I like Dan Aykroyd's humor very rarely, and as for TWOO - I find the whole thing cloying. And believe it or not, it wasn't until I was a teenager that somebody pointed out to me that Dorothy was supposed to be only ten years old or so. Judy Garland looked so much older, I figured the character was just a moron. Also, when I was little I hated that the lion looked nothing like a lion, just like a guy made up to look like a lion.

I forgot about Scary Movie 2...I thought the first one was okay...I laughed at a couple of parts...the second...was a complete and utter piece of crap...it was a "well that's an hour and a half of my life I'll never see again moment"..I HATED it...but I also really dislike Chris Elliot..so anything with him in it I'm already biased against...

And as for Ralph Fiennes...he is SO sexy...we share the same birthday, me and Ralph, lol...I adore him...

LOVED that movie. But, the book is one of my all-time favorites; it's breathtaking.

Movies I DESPISE:

Natural Born Killers
Anything from M. Night Shyamalan
Punch-Drunk Love (or anything with Sandler)
The Idiots
Girl, Interrupted
Exit To Eden
Anything with Colin Farrell (shave the damned unibrow)
The Cat and the Hat
Anything with Eddie Murphy from The Golden Child on up
Good Will Hunting
House of 1000 Corpses
The Next Best Thing
Armageddon
Pumpkin

I'll most definitely think of more turkeys.

Fantastic movie, I just bought it yesterday.

Fiennes was great, but Miranda Richardson stole the movie. She was unbelievable, I can't believe she wasn't nominated for an Oscar. I've been a huge fan of hers ever since The Crying Game and I've never seen such a great performance from her.
