I’d say “Napoleon Dynamite”. I checked it out for free from the library, and I still want my money back.
The film is inexplicably popular. Altho I dont hate it, I really dont get why some many people love it and wear the Tshirts, etc.
During my first year teaching, my students said I looked like the title character. I did (+25 years), and thought I’d watch it to say I’d watched it. I can’t say that, because I only got halfway through it before turning my attention to some drying paint.
A more deadly Invader Zim.
Ah, yes. I didn’t hate it, as such, but it bored me and irritated me, and I just gave up on it, something I very rarely do.
past movie trauma hugs
Last year In Marienbad. I can still shake my head at that.
I see it as a very dark, very deadpan comedy. Absurd and not really funny, but so serious in parts, so over the top, one can only marvel at the antics … The ending seems to imply that Napolean (despite his limitations, being ‘on the spectrum’) will get himself a girlfriend. I know a lot of people like Nappy manage to get married, I’ve often wondered since how life worked out for him.
Agreed!
I’m an atheist and I loved “Signs.”
No, I don’t believe in God. But I also don’t believe in space aliens. I don’t believe there’s a theme park full of dinosaurs in Costa Rica, but I loved “Jurassic Park.”
I have to reassess. Perhaps the worst thing about Joe Vs. the Volcano may be the people who tell me they loved it and I must be an idiot because I just didn’t get it.
Good points. I’ll have to rewatch it one of these days.
I love Jurassic Park and all the sequels, too, but only cos I enjoy watching dinos eat people.
oops my bad about her last name
It was the acting I thought was awful.
I’ve led a sheltered life in the matter of bad movies. But The Holiday (Jude Law/Cameron Diaz) was a bit of a stinker. Full marks to Jude Law for managing to keep a straight face to deliver the line “I know my package, perhaps in the light of day, isn’t all that wonderful…”
New guy here. My vote goes to Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion because it’s the only really bad one I can think of right now besides Joe Dirt… :eek:
There are literally thousands of bad old sci-fi films, but for the stinkist stinkeroo of them all try Teenagers from Outer Space, an old black and white film from 1959. It’s so bad that it’s fun to watch, just to poke fun at it.
Welcome to the SDMB, Dude.
Yeah, but what a great monster at the end. IIRC it was a silhouette of a crayfish.
We hope you will abiide.
Movies I didn’t finish watching I don’t count. The worst I paid to see in a theater was The Cable Guy. The worst on a TV screen in a social situation was* Sense and Sensibility.
