Worst movies *ever*

[From the dug out]

Dirty Dancing
The sound of music
Pretty Woman

I have to admit I don't think I've seen the worst movie ever because I usually read or know something about a movie before I'm willing to sit through one (I'm time poor) and if I do watch a 'bad' movie its due to the cult status, ie 'Plan B from Outer Space'  My favourite 'bad' movie is Barbarella can't go past the orgasmatron and jane Fonda in hot outfits, yes showing my age. Theres no way I would waste my time watching Norbit or Waterworld - I think my movie instinct is pretty good and if I have seen a crap movie, I've forgotten it.

Shinobi Ninja - worst movie / dubbed film I have ever seen. Some dude speaks and they forgot to give him a voice throughout the movie.

that movie sounds awesome... lol

 

[~Floss~]

There would be a very fine line between "worst movie ever" and "absolute best cult classic of all time"

 

[skilbeck]

Austin Powers 3 was horrible IMO

 

[Aimeee]

I watched Dawn of the Dead a few days ago. it really wasnt very amusing, Andy was pretty awesome but other than than it was just 'meh'
Shaun of the Dead is heaps better. Has Dylan Moran and Reece Shearmsith in it too, always a bonus.

Dirty Dancing

Pretty Woman

Dirty Dancing is one of my favourite movies! Although, I am female...

Worst movie? Hercules in New York....starring Arnold "Stang" Schwazawhateverhowyouspellit. It is so so so so bad, with the exception of the Bear scene. It's so bad, I recomend you watch it.

I avoid like the plague anything that's described as "feelgood".

Syriana

Could've been alright, but the way the movie was cut was just atrocious, there was no flow whatsoever, no scene seemed to achieve its purpose.  After half an hour I didn't have the foggiest notion what was going on, so I ejected it and watched Scrubs instead.

Made my brain feel better

I avoid like the plague anything that's described as "feelgood".

Usually "feelgood" movies are "feelgood romantic comedies", my most detested genre.

The storylines are crap and always follow the same formula:
Boy meets girl.
Boy and girl have differences; boy feels out of place but determined.
Boy has something to hide from girl.
Boy works hard to win girl over.
Girl discovers boy's secret / the thing that he was hiding or ashamed of. Relationship appears doomed.
Boy makes heartwarming speech to girl and gets her back.
End - hapilly ever after, etc.

The "feelgood romantic" part of the description can basically be taken as meaning "this is going to be a really cheesy movie"

The "comedy" is light and usually not that funny as it must appeal to all (feelgood romantic comedies are meant for both sexes between the ages of 12 & 65).

Occasionally there are laughable moments between the boy and his mates - as this is often the cause of his "secret" - eg. Hugh Grant's friend in Notting Hill, and Knocked Up had heaps of funny jokes between the main character and his friends. But the problem is, the inevitable, cringe-worthy, "feelgood romantic" parts of the movie ruin the fun. If you take those out you've got a straight "comedy", with no "cheese".

...so I probably couldn't nominate a single "worst movie ever," but anything ever described as a "feelgood romantic comedy" is in the running.

Agree with you 110% on that one. She was one hot babe in her day

the boogeyman (yes there was such a film) worst film in history made no sence whatsoever or any film with tom cruise (scientologist f*****t turd)

 

[sydmariner]

any Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings movie
In fact, any science fiction movie

Science fiction..................nothing better............DR Who..........Stargate on TV.

What do you like Kareem?

why the interest?
I am comedy through and through
although I have a soft spot for some science fiction esp. time travel...
that said its annoying to watch a fantasy film with me as I tend to point out all the mistakes and unlikelyness etc.
Although my absolute favourite movies tend to be Action with comedy throughout.
eg. Pirates of Carribean, 2 fast 2 furious, Mr and Mrs Smith, National Treasure, Longest Yard (not sure if it is primarily comedy or action)
Also dont mind sport movies- rocky, baseball movies (even though dont like baseball)...just underdog stories?
Also Mystery is always good (but then again I can ruin movies for others with my theories...)

To be on topic...Worst movies...or at least worst Genre for me is- Horror!!!
I dont like it at all!

I like comedy to................you cannot point out mistakes in the fantasy film ......that is not allowed................when you throw the brick in the water and it floats .............no need to say in would not float..............

Sports movies ..........not my cup of tea.

Mystery is good, also James Bond.

But this about thye worst movies...............

How about .......Yellow Sub ..............and Silent Movie

007 good except OHMSS (george lazenbey) craptacular
