That was 2003 buddy. However, as it contained far too much suck for one year, we’ll let it slide
Oops. Well, I saw it this year.
And any movie that has a scene with Tom Sawyer driving a car down the streets of Venice is indeed long on suck.
Oh, great. Now you’ve reminded me that I sat through the first half of Garfield: The Movie.
Would’ve been the entire movie, but at the halfway point my four-year-old wanted to leave because he thought it was boring. And it was his idea to go…!
I completely second this. Going into it, I knew it was going to be awful, but my aunt was in town and wanted to see it. It tried to be a cutesy romantic comedy and a three hanky picture and failed at both. Somehow the older girl managed to be even more annoying than Kate Hudson. Plus, I hate movies where the responsible one who keeps the family together (in this case, Joan Cusack’s character) is viewed as not fun and not part of the group. This movie is so disposable that I don’t even remember the ending, other than the fact that it sucked. One of the worst movies I have ever seen in theaters – nay, in my entire life. Given the choice between watching this and Pod People again, I’d go for Pod People, even without Joel, Tom Servo and Crow.
Agreed. Unfunny tripe. Comedies shouldn’t make you pissed off, and Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler should never share screen time.
I’ll also chime in on Dreamcatcher. The book certainly wasn’t one of King’s best by any means, and it made for a truly terrible movie.
Then there was** Playmate of the Apes**, which was so bad it was fantastic.
What? Nobody’s mentioned What the #$*! Do We Know!? yet?
Envy. Never have Jack Black, Ben Stiller and Christopher Walken been less funny. Watching it made me angry at everyone’s agents.
Man On Fire
The Jonathan Demme version is one of your favorite movies ever? :eek: If that’s the case, you need to dig up the Frankenheimer one (and get out more in general)
I just got back from seeing Resident Evil: Apocalypse (my audio theory teacher is making me see it). I hated this movie. Hated it.
**Yu-Gi-Oh the Movie. **
90 minutes of advertisement for Yu-Gi-Oh cards.
Very boring story – bonus points for taking us so far into the Yu-Gi-Oh card game that there was an element of watching a sport you don’t understand to it : “Australian Rules Football using the Marquis of Sandwich Rules but no 4 point conversions allowed”
Very close to impossible to follow - even if you were a 5 year old boy who knew the basics of the game. If you don’t have that background, it was excruciating
In short, let me put it in Yu-Gi-Oh speak (because I can’t wash it from my memory): I feel all of your pain, but I throw down a sad clown whcih removes your movies from the board and allows me, and my pain, to reign supreme.
Man, I’m happy you mentioned this movie. It was so “fantastic” that I almost thought I dreamed it or hallucinated it or died for a moment and went to hell and that was my eternal punishment.
Though I think I’m more saddened, for the sake of the world, that this movie actually exists. shudder
Or in the 8-14 range, where most Lizzie fans fall. What more do you expect from a kid’s movie?
I realised after posting that there was a remake and that that was the movie being canned here. :smack: My excuse is that the remake hasn’t come to the screens in Australia yet. I won’t be going to it.
