Worst Movies

The scene in Resevoir Dogs were the crooks discuss tipping was awesome....and the "What this Cop?". Pulp Fiction was a collection of pretty memorable lines..."Let's get into character". The two scenes between Bruce Willis and John Travolta were pretty awesome.
 
Battlefield Earth hasn't been mentioned yet. I haven't seen it in a long time but here's a clip:

6) The Godfather-I know it's supposed to be a classic, but I slept through the entire second hour.

I agree that this is one over-rated movie, I did enjoy it but nowhere near as much as most people.

8) Trainspotting-The music is so loud it distracts from any dialogue (that can barely be understood with some of their accents) and it is filmed in a haze.

10) Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs-I'm not that picky but do you have to swear that much? I put those in the same category as they are pretty similar.

Seriously? Both Pulp Fiction and Trainspotting feature in my top ten 'Best Movies' and I'm shocked that someone could even consider either of them that badly! :eek:
Pulp Fiction is especially brilliant but they may be a case of personal taste... ;)

Did the humans not learn to fly fighter aircraft by reading an encyclopaedia from a library?

as I recall, the alien scientologists were using the humans to mine for gold because it is very valuable. Travolta put one smart human on a learning machine which gave him lots of new knowledge. Always a good idea. And then that now-even-smarter human used that knowledge to teach other normal humans how to become jet pilots using a flight simulator on an army base that was apparently still in operational condition after 1000 years of disuse. Then they took some harrier jets that were lying around the 1000-year-old disused army base all fueled up and ready to go, and flew to Fort Knox to get some gold bars for Travolta.

Ugh. This is at the top of my worst movie list. I tried watching it on the Sci-fi Channel once thinking "how bad could it be" and didn't last 20 minutes. For a big budget movie it had the worst alien makeup, special effects, and matte paintings that I've ever (thankfully mostly never since I turned it off early) seen. The story and acting were even worse than the makeup.

Sounds like this is actually one of your favourite movies, given your in-depth knowledge having not seen it in ages! :p

This plot development is actually fairly plausible. I just found a trove of oxcarts from the year 1013 that are in perfectly fine working order. Some buddies and I are going to learn how to drive them and use them to overthrow a dictatorial government somewhere.

Titanic: The Animated Musical. This is all I have to show you.

One of the worst movies ever made, there are too many to choose from, is The Blair Witch Project.

The beginning starts off great with the whole backstory thing. But once they start hiking, the film plummets into badness.

There's nothing scary.

a) The first thing that's supposed to be scary are the noises at night. Really?! You're in a forest! There's supposed to be noises! I take it these guys have never gone camping.
b) The second thing that's supposed to be scary are piles of small rocks, and then piles of sticks. I've heard that sticks and stones may break my bones, but I can assure you that they can't scare me unless they're thrown at me.
c) The third thing that's supposed to be scary are these stick mobiles that were stolen from a nursery. I'm told that I should be scared because they are witch symbols, but how can I when I'm reminded of homemade mobiles?
d) The fourth thing that's supposed to be scary is that they're lost. This could have been the case if it weren't for two factors. First, I didn't care about the characters. Second, they kept talking about being lost every five minutes. It was like being strapped in a chair next to a mynah bird.
e) The fifth thing that's supposed to be scary is the house at the end. This might have been interesting if I wasn't so bored with the movie. I was more elated than scared because I knew that it must be coming to an end. The big climax wasn't scary in the least because the final victim looked like we was trying to take leak.

The movie is only 79 minutes long, but it feels like two hours. It drags and drags. The pacing is bad, the editing is bad, the acting is bad, and the headache I got from watching this movie was bad.

Mow the lawn. Volunteer for a charity. Clean your apartment. But whatever you do, don't watch this movie!
 
Stop beating around the bush, Cleusk - tell us what you really think of it!

:p

Worst Animated Films:

Ice Age (2002): The Two Scenes when the Father's tribe and evil pets attack are the worst scenes in Animation Ever!!!

The Plague Dogs (1982): This Animated Film is too serious and is not Funny!!!

Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron (2002): Unlike in other animated films such as The Lion King or Tarzan, the Animals don't talk at all.

The Wild (2006): Disney's total retarded rip-off of Madagascar. The Worst Part-Every time a human is seen their faces are never shown onscreen.

The Rugrats Movie (1998): I just hate it!!!

Troll in Central Park (1994): The Animation and Story are Terrible! This movie was released only a day before I was born.

Sad thing is a 1000 year old wagon has a better chance of working than a fully maintained Harrier (always have had reliability issues). Just need a new Ox
 
Cleusk I completely agree concerning the Blair Witch Project. It was the first though of the found footage mockumentarys that was spread through internet marketing aka Paranormal Activity and Cloverfield. That whole genre blows.
