    Ooops, posted too fast. Yes, I know SL got Oscars, but all my choices were equally ripped and praised. They're both on Rotten Tomatoes bad reviews list.

    ETA: On the list I saw, anyway. If that list was faulty, disregard. LOL

    Just Go With It? I'm not really an Adam Sandler fan but I really liked Just Go With It...




    But most importantly, Thumb Wars!

    Eyes Wide Shut
    Most people hate it.

    While it's not my favorite Kubrick, I'll watch it each time it's on

    I posted the link to Schindler's Lists' Rotten Tomatoes page. 97%. So, 3% of reviewers didn't like it ...

    As a kid I loved Howard The Duck. I think that's considered one of the worst movies of all time now....

    it was considered one of the worst movies of all time then too.

    George Lucas was so upset about it, that he set about destroying the Star Wars franchise in revenge.
