    Saving Private Ryan. I don't know, it just didn't resonate with me the way it did with so many people.

    I agree, took me a couple tries just to get through it.

    Black Swan (I think my wife and I both fell asleep)
    Chariots of Fire. (Saw it with my brother after hearing my sister rave about it. We walked out and I never listened to my sister's movie advice since!)
    and pretty much anything with Will Ferrell, Mike Myers and/or Adam Sandler*. (*Sandler was bearable in Wedding SInger and Happy Gilmour but the rest? No thanks.)
    and I just have a feeling I wouldn't like anything with Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat/Brüno stuff).

    For the Star Wars haters - don't forget that this movie was shot using the latest and greatest special FX of it's day so it looks kind of cheesy and dated 36 (eek am I that old!) years later.

    Godfather movies. Yawn. Long and boring. Plus I'm not big on period films.

    1. GTFO

    2. That wasn't a period film. Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is a period film.

    I last about 20 minutes before I had to turn it off, and that was about 10 minutes too long!

    I hated The Hangover.....

    BORING as hell...

    I'm so with this. I couldn't even finish it. When they had the baby in the car I literally felt sick and had to walk away.

    The Big Lebowski, Fargo, or pretty much any Quentin Tarantino movie have made me wish I had the time I spent watching them back.

    Anything with Tom Cruise
    Saw, all of them. No point... just death.
    Harry Potter... Sorry fans.
    Pretty Women

    Pretty Woman???!!!! :cry: :brokenheart: :sad:

    Dumb and Dumber. NOT funny. Not even remotely.
    Citizen Kane. I had to watch it for a class. It took me 4 nights to get through it because I kept falling asleep.
    Bladerunner. Similar experience to Citizen Kane.
    Howard's End. I'm not sure this would fall into the category of movies people love, but it won lots of awards. Talk about boring...to this day it remains the first and only movie I've ever walked out of, and haven't watched all the way to the end. And I've watched a lot of really bad movies.

    I also hate the new trend of turning movies 3D and bringing them back to theaters (ahem, Disney). I get bringing them back to theaters; I would pay good money to be able to take my kid to see those movies in theaters. However, converting them to 3D as an excuse to make an extra $3 per person is absolute crap.

    Don't hate me for listing these but I just don't like them (and it seems like everyone I know loves them dearly):

    Holes
    Titanic
    Saving Private Ryan
    Casablanca
    Harry Potter (any of them)
    Twilight (any of them.....I think there are multiples right??)
    and any western movie...ugh

    Will Smiths I Am Legend....I know everyone loved it, I couldn't wait to leave the theater...

    I couldn't agree more! WORST movie I have ever seen in my life!

    All movies based on Stephen King novels also suck. I LOVE his books, but they don't translate well on screen. I loved the book Needful Things, but I couldn't sit through the movie.

    Titanic! I went in expecting to see the best movie that's ever been made, but walked out thinking, "Meh." :noway:

    Also, anything with Jim Carrey. I don't mind Bruce Almighty though.

    I'll just list the ones I've actually seen; in no particular order

    The Matrix - the camerawork made me seasick. and I don't get seasick on sea. I'm also not very comfortable with slime and needles and... long story short, I threw up in the movie theater. did not watch the sequels.
    The Big Lebowski - yawn
    Twilight - meh. it's entertaining but I don't get why people would obsess over this, and the books, and the sequels SO much.
    The Hangover - not my type of humour. I found it just confusing and boring and painful.
    Boondock Saints - gratuitous and insensical violence. absolutely incomprehensible
    Immortals - gratuitous and insensical violence and nudity and visual effects for no reason whatsoever (I know, gratuitous means the same as no reason whatsoever, but it had to be said twice. now four times). I can't believe I paid money to see that piece of *kitten* in the cinema.



    as a category: most of Tarantino movies. I remember seeing Pulp Fiction and quite liking it but something after that (Kill Bill 1??) I only managed to get through part of it and could never bring myself to watch anything by Tarantino ever again. yuck.

    I don't even know where to start, honestly.

    Star Wars (or Star Trek, I don't know which is which). I refuse to watch, looks really dumb!

    Any of the Indiana Jones movies. Ditto. Refuse to watch.

    Any romantic comedy. They are all the same.

    Anything with that one girl. Catherine High or something. Hate her with a passion!

    I could go on forever.
