    Twilight and Harry Potter.
  • Avatar, otherwise known as the blue people Pocahontas. I saw it with my aunt and uncle and she was like crazy about it. I didn't understand what was so amazing.

    I'm really happy to see that so many people HATED Avatar like I did. Not only was in unoriginal (other than the effects), the acting was awful and plot was just stupid. I admit, I didn't see it in theatres, only as a pirated download from a friend, but I felt like that proved my point... if I can't get into the movie without wearing 3D glasses, it's just a waste of my time!

  • Moneyball: Jonah Hill got an Oscar nomination for this? My kids do better acting when they don't want to go to school. Plus I just plain don't like Brad Pitt. He does nothing for me. Although I did like Benjamin Button.

    I absolutely could not stand Dune. I love most scifi but the whispering just irritated me like crazy! Its a great book though. Oh, and Mulholland Drive. I get it, just didn't like it. Eraserhead and Blue Velvet were great.

    Couldn't stand "Gladiator." Not a fan of Russell Crowe, the story was drawn out and unoriginal. A major yawn fest for me.

    Oh, and "Knocked Up." Several friends insisted that it was the funniest movie ever. I didn't even chuckle.

    Bridesmaids
  • Michael Bay is a talentless hack who relies on CGI to make a movie watchable...
    You, sir, are MY hero!

    I'd also like to include all of the Twilight and Harry Potter films. I just don't get it, I guess. Oh, and Hunger Games! Why does Hollywood keep crapping out these fairly basic "tween" novels into multi-million dollar bore fests with actors/actresses that seem like they'd rather be doing anything other than acting?!?

    Finally, Meet The Parents and all of it's ridiculous sequels.

    I'm sure I could think of more, but these are off the top of my head...

    Let's be honest- if Johnny Depp is not in it... there is a good chance I am not watching it. :bigsmile:

    1. Titanic
    2. Avatar
    3. The Green Mile

    All three bored me to tears. Titanic was especially painful since I knew how it was going to end and found the romance completely trite.

    If it's the first film, I have to disagree. However, if it's the painfully obvious "let's milk it for two more" sequels, then I whole-heartedly agree,

    Why would I have them on my DVD shelves if I didn't like them :laugh: :tongue:
    But no, I just really did not like any of those movies.

    Field of Dreams - hackney, sentimental junk that take time out to let em know that baseball is a metaphor for life. Metaphor work better if you don't stop the movie to spend 5 minutes explaining to me what the movie means.
