Bad Movies.

The favorites thread isn't much fun if we can't bitch about movies that were badly done, were untrue to the original story, or just plain shouldn't have been made at all.

Knight Riders.

King Arthur on motorcycles.

I still can't forgive George A. Romero.

Hollywood has a history of doing bad King Arthur movies. The movie from a few summers ago?

Um, hello? The knights of the round table did not come from Siberia!!

Nightfall, the movie based off the Asimov book.

Or I, Robot...the movie based off the Asimov book.

Timeline (the book by Crichton was far better)

I had to sit through the mess of A Knights Tale the other day... Ahh, sooo sappy.

There are too many bad movies to name, but of course at the top of it is generally some really bad sci fi, as I Robot, or Battlefield Earth.

I don't see how Peter Jackson's King Kong made your list John... Personally, I loved it and it was one of my favorite films of the year. It's funny in a way, I don't think I've ever been effected so much by a forbidden love story...

Well... It bored me to tears.. I nearly fell asleep and my friend actually did fall asleep.

The first hour was painful, and then it was just "blah"... the T-Rex fight never seemed to end either.

Just not my cup of tea.

I have to agree with John about King Kong.

There was waaaaaaaaaaay too much TRex.

I have a love-hate relationship with The Six String Samurai. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118736/

It's refreshingly origional, best watched late, late, late night.

not enough dialogue, reasons why things happen is often vague, you gotta see it to believe it though.

Back From Hell. So awful that I had to watch it twice just to be sure I didn't miss something. SO BAD I LOVE IT.

The younger generation does not remember "Ishtar". It's like the whole Oscar winning cast and crew were on drugs so they thought they were brilliant and hilarious at the time, but it was just pathetic, and then more pathetic, increasingly pathetic, and finally you're just watching out of morbid curiosity of whether it can get any worse. Yes, it can.

gosh

Ooh, be sure to have popcorn at hand, and then watch Ali vent about this movie. It's great fun.

Awwww, I like Magnolia.

I'm gonna go with Twilight, for recent movies. That's one of the worst I've sat through, recently.

I disagree.

Drag me to hell- worst movie I've ever seen. It has a freaking talking goat!

Evil Dead 2 has a laughing deer (it may have been an elk) head. Does that make it a bad movie?

Besides quotability factor, I kind of despise ND.

As for Drag Me to Hell, it was predictable, laughable, awful and I loved it.

I haven't watched it, but it sounds like the movie Knowing deserves to go in here.

Spoilers:


Apparently this guy knows when disasters will happen.
He fails to stop the first one, despite trying.
And then, he knows that the world will end, and ends up dying - while his children was picked up and carried away by angels. Which would have happened whether he knew or not.

So basically, there was literally no point in him knowing - even though the whole central idea and name of the movie was based on that fact.
lolwut

The best thing about Knowing was walking out of the theatre and the guys behind us saying "The aliens totally ruined it for me." which Nate and I now intone at the end of nearly every movie we see. :)

If the aliens ruined it for them, they probably enjoy a lot more movies than I do, and I enjoy a majority of movies.

Also, zeN, that is, in a nutshell, the problem with the movie (besides Nick Cage, but that's more personal preference. Sidenote: Sorcerer's Apprentice seems like it will be absolutely horrible purely because of Mr. Cage's presence). I've heard arguments against, but they're pretty effing inane.

I'm not sure if I've mentioned it here before, but Pink Flamingo is the worst movie I have ever seen. It made me slightly ill for a little while afterwards (which may have been a coincidence, but I'm claiming it's not).

Not really a movie good to make cracks at or whatnot, either. Most parts are just... really irritating.

Truly, the movie that must be used as a baseline for terrible movies has to be League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

It has the Nautilus surfacing in VENICE, for crying out loud.

It was bad. However, my friends and classify it as So Bad It's Good, while there are clearly many more movies that are So Bad It's Horrible.
