I just wanna die...

Okay, so I'm doing some rudimentary tasks on my computer a few hours ago, when my dad calls me in to watch a movie. I'm thinking, "Oh, wonderful.". Well, we start flipping through the Pay Per View channels, and I see Shaun Of The Dead. My brother and I wanted to watch it, but... One problem. My dad saw King Arthur on the list. Uh oh.

Bad idea. Easily the worst movie I've seen in a long, long time. I don't know what the hell they were doing with it... It was just terrible. Almost two and a half hours of boredom and confusion...

Somebody, please, stab me in the eye with a pointed stick...

It had serious flaws. It could've been much, much, much much much much better. My problem is that I could've seen Shaun Of The Dead!

Neither movie is worth watching. Although King Arthur is probably worse.

I can beat that though, years ago I was out in the Hamptons at a friends house for July 4th. We going to watch something cool that afternoon - I can't recall what but it probably had lots of T&A. Then his fucking dad shows up out of the blue and insists on watching "Yankee Doodle Dandy". Man that fucking sucked.

I got that version for Christmas. I actually thought it was pretty good, but then again I've always liked that kind of stuff. Plus, the bald Saxon was hot. :D

If you were American it'd have been about 800% better, believe me.

Everyone there was American. Everyone thought it sucked. Except for douche-bag dad, who loved it.

The worst thing was, the fucker never used to take the 4th off. But it was like some pyschic power told him there was going to be a huge party at his beach house. So he came out to make us watch Jimmy Cagney - instead of getting wasted and watching porn.

I fell asleep when my dad made me watch Yankee Doodle Dandee. I was only 4, and even then, I knew it was shit.

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

Well the good news is we all got over it. Sort of. Although saying that, every time we get together now - albeit infrequently - someone chirps up, "Hey man remember that time we were at the Hamptons and your dad made us watch Yankee Doodle."

But no hard feelings really.

People, please, I can see where you're all going with this, but surely, any film with Keira Knightley can't be awful... come on, eye-candy... ;)
