5 Movies I Wish I'd Never Seen List


1 Along Came Polly
2 Duplex
3 My Boss' Daughter
4 Marci X
5 Titan AE


In all seriousness, I don't want to criticize "Along Came Polly" *that* bad. It had some funny moments. And if I had a choice of watching a movie like this or Ben Stiller in a drama, I'd choose something like this. But, I wasn't satisfied with how I felt leaving the theater. I think it was the writing. Oh well.

1.) 8 Mile. Eminem; don't like his music. Acting, possibly. Music? No.
2.) Darkness Falls. "Don't turn off the lights." "Why? I'm not a day person."
3.) Anything with Pauly Shore. "Mr. Shore, please wear this 30 lb. C4 vest."
4.) Anything with Tom Green. ".. stand next to Mr. Shore, Tom. Thanks."
5.) The Core. "Take *THAT*, stupid terrorist-planet! Woohoo! America rules!"
6.) A.I.: Artificial Intelligence. "Thanks for spelling that one out, Spielberg."
7.) Armageddon. "If we don't destroy this meteor, the terrorists have won."
8.) House of the Dead. "Lucky we've got this crate o' guns, kids!"
9.) Torque. "No, it's not Fast & the Furious. We have bikes this time, dummy."
10.) Freddy vs. Jason. "This summer, evil will battle evil." "Uhm. No, the evil didn't 'battle' evil. The two evils had a long, drawn out mutually-harmful series of disjointed fights; 'battle' implies the potential for a victory. You have failed to deliver a clear and concise victor, therefore, you haven't shown us a 'battle', dumbass."

-Bio dome (Encino Man and Son Inlaw were awsome everything else sucked)
-Crossroads (WHY DO I HAVETO SEE BRITNEY SPEARS IN UNDERWEAR DANCING AROUND TO MADDONNA IN THE 1ST 5 MINUTES!?!?!?!??!?!?!)
-Batman and Robin (horrible, horrible cast, horrible plot, tim we needed u to finish these for us and make them good and dark n really weird again, not gay and stupid)
-Gili (have not and never will see this movie, i would rather b shot n die a long aginizing death than to sit threw that)
-Any movie with hillary duff (and i think everyone will agree with me on this one she cant act cant sing and really just needs to fall off the radar n do a where are they now)
-Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back (Not as good as its predisesors, just weed n bathroom humor, clever and not clever at the same time, kevin smith must have REALLY wanted to move on from the Viewaskewniverse cause it seemed very thrown together at the last minute to sell on J&SB's popularity)
-American Wedding (just like J&SB, just something to quickly end the series)
-Star Wars Episode I (HORRIBLE!!!!! all coppies should b sent on a rocket to the sun)
-8Mile (the only reason this movie wuz eva popular is because of eminem, this movie sux major, em works soo much better in a comedy like "The Wash" cause that movie wuz great, that fit eminem)

From Justin to Kelly - quite the HA-HA bad movie. Definitely worth a watch.

reply

Geez, a lot of really great movies being knocked on here, oh well, different strokes for different folks and all that. (I loved Adaptation, Gattaca and 8 Mile for instance.)

Also I guess we're leaving B-Movies like Shark Attack (it's soooo bad) and such out of this.

From the top of my head in no particular order:

1.American Wedding (Weren't I supposed to be laughing?)
2.Meet Joe Black (Don't remember why now, but I wrote a review. The feeling of suckiness sticks!)
3.Dante's Peak (My all time hate movie)
4.Waterworld (The movie that could have been but was not.)
5.Signs (Biggest disappointment to date for a sci-fi nut like me)
6.Inspector Gadget (They made a second one??!!!?)

And to all whining about us whining: Cheer up! This is all in good fun! :)

reply

1. gummo (could be the worst movie ever made)
2. Charlie's angels
3. gone in 60 seconds
4. austin powers
5. cabin fever
6. Shakespeare in love
7. wrong turn
8. anything with nick cage (except raising arizona)
9. most jim cary
10. most adam sandler

i'm sure most of the other movies you guys mentioned are bad to but i do my best to avoid them.

reply

Hmm, I guess by the evidence we can assume that pretty much EVERYONE has different tastes (that's what makes it fun doesn't it?)

For me (as I'm sure for many others of you out there) there are lots of movies listed here that people hated that I liked and lots that people liked that I hated. Someone hit it right on the head when they said this was a cool topic... people who enjoy watching movies, talking about movies they like and don't like with other people who also like watching movies... its a natural.
I think its all about one's expectation of the movie anyways....
Nuff of the introspective stuff....

Surprised that no-one mentioned some of these recent baddies:
[bad to me anyway ;)])
Solaris
Minority Report
I Am Sam
The Shipping News
Mullholland Drive (actually... I kind of liked this movie, but it was weird)
(nice lesbian twist to it)
Maid in Manhatten
The In-Laws

Have fun! See you in the lobby.

reply

Mine are:
Along came polly
Maid in manhattan
Sea bisuit (BORING!)
The wedding planner
Uptown girls

reply

Spice World
Spy Kids and Spy Kids 3-D (I was dragged to see the 3rd one)
Jurassic Park III
That sequel to Snow White of which I don't know the name.
Crossroads

Runners up- The Hulk, Final Fantasy, Battlefield Earth (I can't put it in the official list as I only saw the suckiest 20 minutes of my life)

I knew she wanted a big hammer. Maybe a couple of nails and a good screw.

reply

Boy, you guys run the spectrum from brilliantly on-target to spectacularly clueless! But since you got me started...

5 OF THE BEST MOVIES THAT SOME OF YOU WERE CLUELESS ABOUT:

THE ROYAL TENANBAUMS
ADAPTATION
ABOUT SCHMIDT
SAVING PRIVATE RYAN
SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE

5 MOVIES THE WORLD COULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT

ARMAGEDDON
BAD BOYS II
THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS

For those of you who like the last 4 movies I mentioned, I wouldn't mind it so much if you killed yourself trying to duplicate the ludicrous stunts. But if you kill any innocent bystanders with your stupidity, I hope you go to hell.

Ok, I think some of you are just retarded and have no right to even post on a board talking about movies. Stick with your day jobs and leave the entertainment business to the professionals. I made a list anyway, love it or hate it, I take many things into effect when watching movies:

Latest movies I really wish I hadn't seen, not ever:
1.Wrong Turn ( some movies are so bad you have to see them, not this one, I felt as though I should have been beatin in singapore for seeing this.)
2. Cold Creek Manor (oh my god, why was this made, and who in their right mind read this script and decided "Yeah, this sounds great, when do I start" The movie never gets going and doesn't even make anything remotely interesting. Lee Harvey Oswald where are you when we need you.
3. Scary Movie 3 (got really high to see this and it still wasn't funny, all they needed was emilio estevez and it would have been a very shitty remake of Men at Work. . . .ugh . . .terrible.)
4. Stuck on you ( should have been number 3, scary movie 3 was better than this piece, not one person laughed once, and I saw it opening weekend, the theater was packed. It was boring as all hell, the whole time I knew I was in the theater watching it and I didn't want to be. Masterbating would have brought me greater pleasure.
5. Matrix Revolutions ( I'm sorry for those of you who liked this movie. I just felt it was a terrible let down for all the hype, story wise that is. Unlike many I enjoyed the second, I felt many people didn't like it because of their own I.Q. I am not trying to offend anyone, but it's true you have to have a high I.Q. to really get everything the archetect is talking about. Also their are many great references to the masonites and the theory of relitivity and to all religons as well. I thought the second was great but understood that it wouldn't appeal to a wide market. But the third, c'mon. . . great visually but it's like the writers built everything up and then copped out. I was very dissapointed.

Bonus, just had to add this one.

Pirates of the Carribean
ughhhh, Jerry once again you have ruined what might have been a great movie. Knightly is hot, no doubt. Rush is alright. Still not convinced that Bloom is that great of an actor. Johnny Depp is however one of hollywoods greatest and most underrated actors of all time. Look at any of his previous titles and you'll find a genius in him. He always takes on roles he knows he would make interesting, and usually saves the movie for it. This again was the case, congragulations Johnny you once again saved a movie from terrible defeat. All of the other actors in this movie played their part well for what was written. You can tell though that he was Jack, he did not play him, and you know the writing for his character was not that good. Can't wait to see him as Willy Wonka or as Hunter S. Thompson again.
