ok so i had a few with friends last night, and somehow the idea of watching Date Movie became a plan, oh my god it had to have been one of the worst films ive seen in years. does anyone else have a movie that they regret watching, and/or are ashamed to admit they saw?

please dont let me be the only one....

The Family Stone.

Eyes wide shut was a total piece of crap

Saving Private Ryan was just horrible emotional flag-porn

Napolean Dynamite. Actually I only watched 15 mins of it. But that was a horrible 15 mins.

The Family Stone.


family stone? who was in that?

Napolean Dynamite. Actually I only watched 15 mins of it. But that was a horrible 15 mins.


i sadly sat through all 90 mins of that piece of garbage.

Napolean Dynamite. Actually I only watched 15 mins of it. But that was a horrible 15 mins.

I saw the whole thing, and I hated it. What was funny about it?

Uh...Scary Movie 4?


Saving Private Ryan was just horrible emotional flag-porn

Except for the beach scene, yeah. In fact, the whole movie should have been the beach scene and it would have kicked butt.

i sadly sat through all 90 mins of that piece of garbage.


Did you need counseling afterwards?

Forgotten.

This was worse than a bad movie. As with a bad movie you can walk out after 15 min. This gave the impression it was a good movie and kept me till the end upon which the ending looked like something a retarded 5 year old came up with.

The movie I made for a school project. Really, it was horrible, but funny at the same time. Something like 20 people died in 5 minutes :eek:

Uh...Scary Movie 4?




is 4 even out yet?

Mission Impossible 3. I'd prefer not to say why.

Oooh, and another one..."Stay". It was shit.

is 4 even out yet?

Yes. And it's terrible.

Date movie was pretty bad. Napoleon Dynamite was worse, but the absolute worst film I've ever had the misfortune to watch was probably Armageddon. Mercifully sleep took me away from this abortion of a film about half way through. Unfortunately I woke up in time to see the end.

aha and shant we forget the film Signs.

http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=signs

this summed it up far better than I ever could.

Ugh, that was shit too.

I love Signs!

Yes. And it's terrible.


3 and 4 are the "whitened" up versions.

arent they made by the zuckers as well? wtf happened to them?

family stone? who was in that?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0356680/

For some reason.. the ending just.. offended me.

I love Signs!

I love Napolean Dynamite :p

that was a disaster movie where i wished the world would end so the movie would.

3 and 4 are the "whitened" up versions.

*shrugs*

The only other one i've seen is the first one, and that was pretty funny. I hear the other two are pretty bad though.

by the cast alone the movie seems like shite

I love Napolean Dynamite :p


Touche!

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey.. that was filmed in my area..

*is very biased to loving movies filmed in his area*

Take that back!

:mad:

Oooh, another one : Titanic.

The bit at the end with everyone jumping to their death and Leonardo Di Craprio freezing to death couldn't even make up for the rest of that shitty movie.

Can you believe that movie beat out LA confidential for Best Picture?

Lucky Numbers
It Could Happen to You
Free Willy
Waking Ned Divine
Blood Dolls
Doom Generation

If it weren't for experiencing these movies, I could have been somebody.

Oooh, another one : Titanic.

The bit at the end with everyone jumping to their death and Leonardo Di Craprio freezing to death couldn't even make up for the rest of that shitty movie.

He looked like he was fucking 12 years old in that movie. She's a woman, he's a kid, get in the fuckin life boat.

An Australian movie called "Weird Ones."

http://www.us.imdb.com/title/tt0211116/

This is the worst fucking movie I have seen in my life. I say that without exaggeration. I thoroughly regret sitting through it, but I just couldn't look away. I was overcome with a kind of morbid fascination and desire to see it through to the end. Forget Ed Wood films and other "so bad it's good" movies, this movie is so bad you'll want to claw your eyes out and turn them into a fleshy, bloody mush to then block your ears with.

Oooh, another one : Titanic.

The bit at the end with everyone jumping to their death and Leonardo Di Craprio freezing to death couldn't even make up for the rest of that shitty movie.
I'm proud to say I only got halfway through that movie before heading out and knocking the memories out with cold beers.

Any Sci-Fi or Disney channel made-for-tv movie. They mock better stuff on Mystery Science Theatre.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.

Describes the careers of almost everybody involved, and it set an awful low in video game cinematography that even Uwe Toilet Boll has yet to exceeed.

Well, everyone knows that academy award judges always pick their friends :p

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.

Has there ever been a good video game movie?

Ugh, Super Mario Brothers.

Ugh...Wing Commander...

*gags*

American Dreamz....

Blair Witch...

glad I rented it, it was cheaper than seeing it in the theatre.

I'm proud to say I only got halfway through that movie before heading out and knocking the memories out with cold beers.

I would have been pretty young at the time, so that wasn't really an option for me then. :(

(maybe if i'm lucky, i'll yet manage to retroactively knock those memories out, though. ;))

"Nine Lives"

The only redeeming feature is that Paris Hilton is the first person to die in it, and that isn't enough.

I would have been pretty young at the time, so that wasn't really an option for me then. :(
I was underage, too. But, damnit, it was necessary.

Daredevil. Oh dear god the pain, and I don't even have the original comic to compare it to. My boy (at the time) dragged me insisting it would be fabulous, and made me sit through the whole fucking thing.

"Nine Lives"

The only redeeming feature is that Paris Hilton is the first person to die in it, and that isn't enough.
I wonder if she can be tricked into doing snuff?

"the house of 1000 corpses"

"solaris" (with the ICP music in it)

"thumbsucker"

I was underage, too. But, damnit, it was necessary.

Yeah, but I would have been....13? :p

Yeah, but I would have been....13? :p
Hmmm.

I guess the most you could do is snort pixie sticks and I'm not sure if that would have cut it.

Ugh another shitty movie - Chicken Park.

OH!

And Supernova. That sucked. And Red Planet. And every Jurassic Park movie after the first one. And Jason X.

Ugh, i've seen too many shit movies. It's no wonder I don't watch many anymore.

date movie sucked but Napoleon Dynamite was awesome its hella funny.

Mean Girls. Why the hell we kept listening to one guy's advice on what we (about 11 of us...all 17 to 18 year old lads) should see at the cinema is beyond me. They shoulda listened to me more, Without a Paddle was quality.

I wonder if she can be tricked into doing snuff?

who says she hasnt done it already

Blair Witch...

glad I rented it, it was cheaper than seeing it in the theatre.
Blair Witch II made Blair Witch look like the fucking Matrix.

AIDs...Alone in the Dark. (SUCKS.)

Also, A History of Violence.

who says she hasnt done it already
But she'd be gone if she did...

Eye of the beholder

This one is going to draw ire too, but I really didn't think Fight Club was all that and a bag of chips. Sorry.

Hmmm.

I guess the most you could do is snort pixie sticks and I'm not sure if that would have cut it.

Yes, the scars are permanent. :(

But she'd be gone if she did...

not all snuff is real

Blair Witch II made Blair Witch look like the fucking Matrix.

I didn't see the second one. I thought the first was bad enough.

Oh, and while we're on the Matrix, everything after the first one was terrible.

not all snuff is real
I suppose we could tell her that...

Big Fish (and everything else Tim Burton has ever vomited out, like that chocolate factory ruckus):mad:

Blair Witch II made Blair Witch look like the fucking Matrix.
:eek:
Glad I didn't see that...

There can only be one!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085672/

I like a good bad movie but I struggled to remain in the theater. I kept hoping it would get better! It didn't.

I saw a test screening of Species and it sucked bad! I remember people screaming kill the empath! :D

Blair Witch II made Blair Witch look like the fucking Matrix.
Blair Witch scared the shit out of me opening weekend and then made me feel ridiculous the following week in school.

Con-Air. You can have people who can't act, no money, and no clue, and make better.

I suppose we could tell her that...

lol :p

Con-Air. You can have people who can't act, no money, and no clue, and make better.

Ugh, seconded!

And Waterworld, proving that tons of money doesn't compensate for having no clue and people who can't act.

Has anyone ever seen the Postman? I've only seen a few minutes from the middle. Is that what that movie is about? He's a postman in the near future?

Manos the hands of fate. Even with the m3tk commentary it was like I was being kicked in the nuts constantly.

As in Kevin Costner? Crap film.

Basically the world is destroyed and hope is restored by a guy (Costner) taking mail through the plains of anarchy to other people.

-edit- Darn it got the order wrong!

Reloaded I didn't mind. However, it did set me up for Revolutions so I guess I should dislike it as well! ;)

Prequels!

As I have said. I saw 1 twice, 2 once, and I borrowed the DVD for 3.

Starship Troopers was pretty meh too, but it did have a really hot gal in it.

can we at least complain about that movie


btw. napolian dynomite was the shit.

Mission to Mars. What a complete let down.

the constant gardner was a beautiful peice of film making!:upyours:

Anarchy land34']guys..did anyone forget "gigli"



Ohhh so you are one of the people who actually saw it?

The fact nobody brought it up says something! :D

Lest we not forget that Britney Spears movie ("Crossroads"), that Mariah Carey movie ("Glitter"), and the piece of crap quasi-musical(ish) movie by Kelly Clarkson and Justin Guarini ("From Justin to Kelly: The Tale of Two American Idols"). :)

Matrix: Revolutions AND Reloaded

Out of those both, Revolutions was worse. It seems like the Matrix series got worse with each sequel, but boy did Revolutions leave me hanging... :(

Anarchy land34']the constant gardner was a beautiful peice of film making!:upyours:

I hated that more than any film I've seen recently - it's just so boring.:upyours:

Oh don't forget "One Night in Paris" terrible lighting, bad acting, just all around horrible.

Lest we not forget that Britney Spears movie ("Crossroads"), that Mariah Carey movie ("Glitter"), and the piece of crap quasi-musical(ish) movie by Kelly Clarkson and Justin Guarini ("From Justin to Kelly: The Tale of Two American Idols"). :)
I had forgotten those movies you son of a bitch.

Gerry.

He actually had dialog help for 3! He had help and it still turned out like that! Imagine seeing his vision???

Wow!

Well my neighbor is kind of the super geek on scifi things. He says 4-6 had a ghost scriptwriter who died of cancer. George should stick with being the idea guy and leave the scripts to other people.

I am afraid for Indiana Jones 4

I can't belive that noone has mentioned Dungeons & Dragons, now that was a crappy movie. I just feel lucky I borrowod a friends videocopy...

ooh! ooh! Another:

Studio 54.

I can't belive that noone has mentioned Dungeons & Dragons, now that was a crappy movie. I just feel lucky I borrowod a friends videocopy...

Yuck, someone gave me that for a birthday present years ago. :s

Actually, it's still sitting in the spot I put it then, gathering a nice coating of dust.

also psycho beach party

Yeah, I saw that in theatre. I donated my belongings and walked the Earth for a short time.

Deuce Bigalow - European Gigolo.

First film was funny - this sucked ass big style, not funny.

I have a fairly low standard for what constitutes an acceptable movie. Hell, I even managed to get all the way through "Starship Troopers II" and "Aliens vs. Predator" without ever being disconnected from the movie. But I will say that I've found three movies absolutely appalling even to my low calibre tastes. Those three are Street Fighter, Alexander, and Starship Troopers. Each goes very wrong for completely different reasons, but are emblematic of what not to do with cinema.

Street Fighter is something so bad that even Ewe Boll has yet to surpass (although House of the Dead came close). Not only do they hew closely to the "plot" of the Street Fighter game, which should be the first sign of things going terribly wrong, but they fail to really develop any of the one-note plot hooks in any of the characters. This only gets worse when you consider who was doing the acting: Jean-Claude Van Damme and Kylie Minogue. Even the few good actors they apparently coerced into working (I can only imagine the carefully doctored pictures of dead hookers that must have changed hands) were woefully miscast: Peter Postlewaite is great in The Usual Suspects and The Last of the Mohicans, but as Sagat? In short, by combining a terrible script, terrible actors, and a bad overall concept, even Cammy and Chung-Li getting into a hard-core lesbian lovefest couldn't have saved this one, which is a hard thing for my inner 13-year old to admit.

Unlike Street Fighter, which at the least makes no bones about its badness, Alexander has delusions of adequacy, and in this it fails. Miserably. The problem with this momentous debacle is precisely the opposite of Street Fighter; rather than a paucity of goings-on, Alexander has so much that the entire movie felt like one long prologue. We went from young Alexander to old Alexander to flashbacks to visions of the future with such jarring frequency my neck hurt from the whiplash, and what ought to have been really interesting, like the Battle of Gaugemala (which for history buffs is known as one of the most decisive victories in history) were spectacularly badly edited, showed little or nothing of what was going on much less Alexander's strategic skill, and dramatically underplayed its value until announcing at the very end with little fanfare or buildup that Alexander had just conquered the known world. There are very few movies I have to actually turn off before I get to the half-way point, but this is one of those movies.

Starship Troopers doesn't fail at a cinematic level, at least not at first glance. As a kid watching movies on lazy Saturday afternoons, I saw none too few of the jingoistic war movies of the World War II era, where a unit gets decimated through nasty Jap underhandedness, only to be reinforced for the fight to go on at the end. This movie at one level is a clear parody of those movies, and on that level it does an excellent job. Plus it has Dina Meyer topless, which is never, ever a failing in a movie. My problem with it, however, is its name and heritage. Starship Troopers the book is not a romping jingoistic war epic like those Saturday matinees. It's a serious tract on the philosophy of war and producing warriors and citizens in society, and it also has some of the best analysis of how to fight on the tactical level of any piece of easy fiction I've seen. There's a reason why the Rangers refer to the native Somalis in Black Hawk Down as Skinnies: because its a reference to Starship Troopers and is actually required reading in the Marine and Army officer training programs. In short, if you were to pick either the sci-fi genre or the war genre, Starship Troopers would be one of the ten best novels in either category. So it is a phenomenally bad fit with a movie in which tactics consist of running toward or away from a bug in a big mob, where patented EW (extremely weak) weapons are highly incapable of stopping a Bug, where the infantry has virtually no air, arty, or heavy armor support against a foe that clearly seems to benefit because of it, and where the best outfit in the Mobile Infantry is shown standing in a circle firing armor-piercing rounds into and through a Bug and presumably into and through each other, people with character shields excepted. If you're going to make a movie with the name of one of the best war movies ever made, do justice to that book. If you can't, name it something else.

now that's a detailed answer! I too died inside during Alexander.

Ultraviolet

If any of you have seen this you can probbaly agree. Didn't make sense at all. Confused the hell out of me and my dad, my dad that makes frickin' super computers for the frickin' goverment didn't frickin' get it! Example of the bad confusingness: lady is running after she kidnapped this kid and a bunch of random asian guys shoot at her, and they have horrible frickin' aim-lady ducks and while they form a circle around her they shoot each other.. Also the writing was poor. One minute she's about to die the next killing fifty bajillion soldiers. Speaking of the soldiers, they have great tactics! "She's got a sword! Let's form a circle around her and die like the other guys!"
Or my personal favorite soldier who tripped, he didn't even get hit! He was sitting in the back doing some kind of dance from the 30's. "Hey guys I know where in a heavy combat zone but screw them let's dance! :D" Back to the confusing: At one part there's a helicopter. Lady goes through the troop storage area thing of the chopper and it randomly blows up....WHY!?!?

And that ladies and gentleman is my rant on ultraviolet. *end rant*

Zoolander

There was this terrible horror movie from the 70s or 80s. I wish I remembered the name of it. It was about giant rats going around killing homeless people, then they attack a subway car, and they were the size of dogs. Oh man. That movie sucked in so many ways, but it was very humourous to think that it was a horror movie.

-edit- I think it was called Deadly Eyes or something.

Bloody Braveheart and Paitroit

I can't belive that noone has mentioned Dungeons & Dragons, now that was a crappy movie. I just feel lucky I borrowod a friends videocopy...

The funny thing is, it was made based on a game played by people who enjoy imagining scenery and events, so they give them glaringly ugly and fake scenery that looks like it came from the halloween aisle at Wallmart.

The movie would have been better if it was done like "stick figure shakespeare" from Liquid Television (where the animation was stickfigures on lined loose-leaf paper).

Zoolander

Grr!!!! I actually bought that after being told it was good. I was duped. A lot of Ben Stiller stuff I like, but this and Meet the Parents + Meet The Fockers made me want to drown myself to make the torment stop.

white chicks...oh dear lord

white chicks...oh dear lord


hahahahahaha ....I love only one part of that movie, when they start singing the chick song, and the big black guy sings it...heheh it made me giggle

hahahahahaha ....I love only one part of that movie, when they start singing the chick song, and the big black guy sings it...heheh it made me giggle

it all sucked i sat their for the whole film...i had faith in films becoming better as they go on before watching that.

I didn't see the second one. I thought the first was bad enough.

Oh, and while we're on the Matrix, everything after the first one was terrible.
No, the first was a horror film sucessfully and convincingly parodying a documentary.

The second was a fantasy horror with a carbon-fibre thin plot line, terrible actors, and ridiculous dialog and plot "twists." It had plot holes that make the massive holes in the Guild Wars: Factions' story plot (it is terrible for those who don't have the game) look like fucking half filled in potholes in a neighborhood road. I don't remember if I never saw the ending or if there just wasn't any ending.

I think some one got really fucking wasted on mushrooms and watched Ringu and the Blair Witch Project and was like "hey, I bet we can do a Blair Witch sequel with some of this stuff."

No, the first was a horror film sucessfully and convincingly parodying a documentary.

I dunno about that. I didn't think it was particularly scary. I thought it was a bit lame, actually.

I've seen a couple mentioned that I regret ever having seen - top of that list would be Dungeons and Dragons - because Thora Birch is SO good, and... well, D&D wasn't.

Similarly - Armageddon had an incredible ast of actors, most of whom walked through the entire movie without acting.

Others that I have really regretted seeing:

An indy movie called "Envy" about these two girls who get magically 'endowed' by The Penis Fairy... (it's as bad as it sounds).

The D-grade 'horror' movies "Scarecrow", "Scarecrow 2" and "Pinata: Survival Island". (The first two are movies about a scarecrow that comes to life, and kills people with a combination of bad puns and martial arts...? The third is a movie about co-eds being murdered by a pinata...)

Alien: Resurrection - although I have now got to a point where I can tolerate it. It grows on you. Like fungus.


But the film I have MOST regretted shelling out the hard-earned cash for:

Event Horizon - again, fairly promising cast, and a complete lack of any redeeming features... unless gratuitous gore and the occassional flash-and-bang are your idea of 'scary'.

I can't belive that noone has mentioned Dungeons & Dragons, now that was a crappy movie. I just feel lucky I borrowod a friends videocopy...the first one was crappy, but the sequal,
Dungeons & Dragons:Wrath of the Dragon God (http://imdb.com/title/tt0406728/) was 1000% better.

Napolean Dynamite - I agree with everyone who blasted this, for whatever reason!!! A complete and total piece of shit!!!

Hostel - Horrible, over-rated piece of crap!!! One of the worst endings in cinematic history!!!

Army of Darkness - A disgrace to its' predecessors! A truly fucked up way to follow up such classic masterpieces!!!

I'm sure there are more but, these were the first three to pop in my head!!!

ok so i had a few with friends last night, and somehow the idea of watching Date Movie became a plan, oh my god it had to have been one of the worst films ive seen in years. does anyone else have a movie that they regret watching, and/or are ashamed to admit they saw?

please dont let me be the only one....

Haha, I clicked on this thread to mention Date Movie. Worst thing I've ever ever seen.

Oh, apart from Nutty Professor 2. I walked out of that one. I managed to sit through Date Movie at least.

And because the above post just reminded me, Napolean Dynamite. Apparently it's supposed to be funny? I really don't get it. Does it even have a plot?

Caved in: Prehistoric terror
90% of the stupid animal horror movies on scifi. (Some are good, most suck)
Kung pow; Enter the fist

American Dreamz....
hahaha yeah... so bad :p


i certainly don't regret (not) seeing (parts of) X-men 3 though... ;) :D

Bride and Prejudice. I can't even begin to describe how it plumbs every depth of moviemaking. It can be summed up as follows: boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy stalks girl, girl stalks boy, then they sing at each other in some kind of bizarre mating ritual. People walk out in disgust.

hahaha yeah... so bad :p


i certainly don't regret (not) seeing (parts of) X-men 3 though... ;) :D
*giggles and blushes* :P :fluffle:
Yeah, I think I, uh, managed to cope with the distractions that arose..... ;) :D

Alien: Resurrection - although I have now got to a point where I can tolerate it. It grows on you. Like fungus.

That movie was actually okay up until they brought in the human-alien baby thing. Then it just kind of sucked.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.

Ohhhhhh yeah...forgot to mention that one! 'Dodgeball' was also retarded!

Mission: Impossible III. I haven't seen either of the first two, but it was awful. Plotless, needlessly violent, two-dimensional characters, pathetic acting....

Not that it was my choice; my friend dragged me to see it because he's in love with the guy who played the villain.

Not an actual film, but that Star Wars holiday special...

*giggles and blushes* :P :fluffle:
Yeah, I think I, uh, managed to cope with the distractions that arose..... ;) :D
better than the movie, i think :p

Club dread is a terrible, terrible movie that I once saw. Once many years ago I saw this low-budget home-film-ish type movie called "gummo." It was the worst 90 minutes I've ever spent in front of a screen.

better than the movie, i think :p
however much i love xmen.... definitly! :p :fluffle:

Fight Club

The most over-rated, cult-adored, piece of garbage I've ever watched.
When life gets two men down, they form a club for people to beat each other to a bloody pulp in!

Uh-oh, do we have a plot twist here?
Oh, how original, these two men were actually one in the same!
Better shoot yourself in the jaw!
Oh wow, now you're perfectly cured - what is this?
Now all the credit card buildings come crashing down.

What a great movie!

1/10.

however much i love xmen.... definitly! :p :fluffle:
granted, if you and PM were sitting infront of me, I probably wouldn't watch the movie either.

V for Vendetta
--------------

Blatant cheapshots at the Bush administration that are poorly done anyway. Even though I'm no fan of Bush, the whole movie I felt like I was being preached at by the Wachowski brothers and what do I care about the personal opinions of a couple of overrated geeks. I wanted to see some action! (Which the movie had very little of)

The whole thing about the government purposely spreading the disease and putting any non-white, non-Christians in concentration camps. Are they implying the Bush administration fabricated 9/11? And contrary to popular opinion, Bush isn't too much of a racist. He actually admires Mexican immigrants in particular from his experience as governor of Texas, saying they're good hard working people. Now I sound like a Bush apologist, heh. But the movie didn't criticize the administration from the right angles. Long live Chancellor Sutler!

You want political commentary done more subtly and entertainingly, watch Star Wars: Episodes 1 + 2 or Dr. Strangelove.

But the film I have MOST regretted shelling out the hard-earned cash for:

Event Horizon - again, fairly promising cast, and a complete lack of any redeeming features... unless gratuitous gore and the occassional flash-and-bang are your idea of 'scary'.


About Event Horizon, I have noticed something very bemusing about it. I believe it is one of the very few movies I prefer watching with the German synchronisation instead of in the original english.

I give you all the points with the english. However what I found more enjoyable about the german version was the voices first of all had life,.. i.e not a droning and seemingly untalented acting. They used often very complex literate words, made the whole thing way more interesting and added to it a new sense of maturity. It was not outstanding but bearable as a movie, whilst with the english version you were just bored within a short time.

V for Vendetta
--------------

Blatant cheapshots at the Bush administration that are poorly done anyway. Even though I'm no fan of Bush, the whole movie I felt like I was being preached at by the Wachowski brothers and what do I care about the personal opinions of a couple of overrated geeks. I wanted to see some action! (Which the movie had very little of)

The whole thing about the government purposely spreading the disease and putting any non-white, non-Christians in concentration camps. Are they implying the Bush administration fabricated 9/11? And contrary to popular opinion, Bush isn't too much of a racist. He actually admires Mexican immigrants in particular from his experience as governor of Texas, saying they're good hard working people. Now I sound like a Bush apologist, heh. But the movie didn't criticize the administration from the right angles. Long live Chancellor Sutler!

You want political commentary done more subtly and entertainingly, watch Star Wars: Episodes 1 + 2 or Dr. Strangelove.
I haven't seen the movie but I thought it was directed at Thatcher.

Has anyone ever seen the Postman? I've only seen a few minutes from the middle. Is that what that movie is about? He's a postman in the near future?As in Kevin Costner? Crap film.

Basically the world is destroyed and hope is restored by a guy (Costner) taking mail through the plains of anarchy to other people.

Actually, The Postman was based on a fairly good novel by David Brin. It's just that pretty much anything Kostner turns his hand to magically transforms into complete and utter crap, which is what he did to this story.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen was Event Horizon. So, so pretty to look at - and not a shred of plot to be seen. If you're fascinated by well-made sets, then it's worth watching, but other than that forget it.

Napoleon Dynamite is clearly one of those movies that people either love or hate. Personally, I wet myself laughing through most of it. Great movie if you've got a weird sense of humour.

And as for the person who had Waking Ned Devine on his list: did you sleep through it or something? That's on MY list as one of the best movies ever. It's a lovely, quiet piece poking fun at human nature. And if you can't laugh at Michael O'Sullivan riding naked on a motorbike then you may as well just slit your wrists now.

Bad movies I've seen, in no particular order: The aforementioned Event Horizon
Star Wars I, II and III
Titanic
Faeces... uh, I mean Species
Dungeons & Dragons - though technically I shouldn't list this as I only saw the first 10 minutes before I couldn't take any more and switched it off
Armageddon (I know people who rave about this movie and have even watched it multiple times... *shudder*)
I can't list Battlefield Earth because I've never watched it, but I did suffer through the trailers
Highlander II - it was especially jarring since the first one was so good
Independence Day
Wild, Wild West - I still can't believe I paid good money to see that crap
I'm sure there are more but my brain is going into overload just thinking about all these steaming piles of garbage...

I can't belive that noone has mentioned Dungeons & Dragons, now that was a crappy movie. I just feel lucky I borrowod a friends videocopy...


Dear baby jesus.....I went to the Cinema to see that....A total fuck up. somebody saw the trailer (CGI dragons convinced him said he, but I reckon he was stoned at the time) and thought we should go. Still, Con Air is worse.

Uh...Scary Movie 4?

Agreed. On that note, It's Pat was a waste of my time, too, but at least I wasn't paying to watch it.

Umm...V for Vendetta is based on a comic book made in the '80s which is exactly like the movie, and it takes place in England...it really, really has nothing to do with Bush...

Quite right. Alan Moore began writing the comic in 1981, when Thatcher's regime was still in its infancy. Here's an exerpt from the introduction to the comic:

...Naiveté can also be detected in my supposition that it would take something as melodramatic as a near-miss nuclear conflict to nudge England towards facism. Although in fairness to myself and David, there were no better or more accurate predictions of our country's future available in comic form at that time. The simple fact that much of the historical background of the story proceeds from a predicted Conservative defeat in the 1989 General Election should tell you how reliable we were in our role as Cassandras.

I'ts 1988 now. Margaret Thatcher is entering her third term of office and talking confidently of an unbroken Conservative leadership well into the next century. My youngest daughter is seven and the tabloid press are circulating the idea of concentration camps for persons with AIDS. The new riot police wear black visors, as do their horses, and their vans have rotating video cameras mounted on top. The government has expressed a desire to eradicate homosexuality, even as a concept, and one can only speculate as to which minority will be the next legislated against. I'm thinking of taking my family and getting out of this country soon, sometime over the next couple of years. It's cold and it's mean spirited and I don't like it here anymore.

Goodnight England. Goodnight Home Service and V for Victory.

Hello the Voice of Fate and V for VENDETTA.

Now, if you happen to spot any similarities between that and the current Bush regime... well, 'nuff said.

Hey, I'm getting better at being quiet and biting my lip.... :P
hahaha that made me laugh perhaps a bit too much :p

you were nice and loud though *cough* :P

Bastard! I had forgotten that movie! You are right, it's the typical hide the crappy script with FX....

It's a lovely, quiet piece poking fun at human nature. And if you can't laugh at Michael O'Sullivan riding naked on a motorbike then you may as well just slit your wrists now.

Seconded on that!

Wild, Wild West - I still can't believe I paid good money to see that crap


Another one I forgot! As one guy said "Considering the period of the movie, Will Smiths character probably would have been hanged for bing upity"

Another crappy script created so they could put that spider in the film. I heard a rumor the director wanted to use it in Superman.....

hahaha that made me laugh perhaps a bit too much :p

you were nice and loud though *cough* :P
haha :D
you know i can be louder ;-)

I have to disagree. Yes, it's a hollywood horror movie set in space so it's not exactly quality. But what I liked was the fact that it's really based on the "old school" formula for horror movies, where the monster doesn't pop out and tell a joke in the first 3 frames but is instead "implied" and not seen throughout most of the film...Not really sure how to put it, but it sort of unravels smoothly.
Not the best, but not boring either.

I want my life back ... that was the shittiest movie in existance

Liquid Sky
A Polish Vampire in Burbank
The Brother from Another Planet

Need I mention I am no longer allowed to choose the movie we see?

Do not watch this movie or your IQ will drop by 20 points, it is by far the worst and dumbest movie ever.

I saw Waking Ned Divine when I was 14 or around that age and with a girl who didn't like me in "that way." May have something to do with it.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift

Hot girls and fast cars are all well and good. Fantastic (especially the cars) in their own environment, I love cars. I adore cars. I could happily spend my entire life in a garage at a race course.

But not enough to entertain me for more than about 30 minutes in a cinema.

Car racing belongs outside films.

Now, I said 30 minutes. It would have been entertaining if it had finished there.

Anything more needs a good storyline. This fails at that.

Napolean Dynamite. Actually I only watched 15 mins of it. But that was a horrible 15 mins.

I got bored watching the preview to that one.

I haven't seen the movie but I thought it was directed at Thatcher.

It is.

Poor little oppressed white, Christian, Republican male has a persecution complex.




Yes I know I've just assume four things about him that probably aren't true.

See if I care.

I bet you do care. Because Caring is half the battle for bears. Or something.

Steel starring Shaquille O'Neal. The acting was so bad I could feel my brain getting smaller.

as others have said, Napolean Dynamite is the worst movie i've seen in years, far eclipsing Date Movie, the original poster's worst.

ok so i had a few with friends last night, and somehow the idea of watching Date Movie became a plan, oh my god it had to have been one of the worst films ive seen in years. does anyone else have a movie that they regret watching, and/or are ashamed to admit they saw?

please dont let me be the only one....

HA-HA! You're the only one! :p

Blair Witch Project

Total crap!! Nothing but three kids walking around the woods. Not a dam thing scary in the whole movie. and no plot to be found at all!

A lot of these recommendations fall into two categories: Movies that you should only watch drunk (because then they become amazing) and movies that you really should have known better than to go see.

My movie that I regret seeing is X-Men 3, which was the first and only movie that I've ever gotten up and left in the middle of.

legally blonde 2. there is no more to say.

Steel starring Shaquille O'Neal. The acting was so bad I could feel my brain getting smaller.


It's got Shaq in it, so you should know it's gonna suck.

I fell asleep during the Aviator. That movie should have ended at least 30 mins earlier than it did.

i have to say it was a bit slow. but everyone i know loves it. i don't really get why.

Alright, I admit it, I went to see Battlefield Earth. I don't think there has ever been a worse movie. Ever. In the whole history of movies. I don't think there ever will be a worse movie. Ever. In the whole future of movies. Not even if all the worst movie-makers in all of time and space could be brought to life together in a single location and given an unlimited budget to deliberately make the worst movie ever combining all the worst ideas from every other bad movie. They'd fail. Battlefield Earth is the great vacuum cleaner of films, able to out-suck every other film. I was traumatized by the suckiness of it. It was so bad I should have had treatment for PTSD. It was so bad, maybe I did have treatment for PTSD but I was beyond help, and I now have post-traumatic amnesia. I think it may have made me sterile too. I'm sure it's caused this partial paralysis in my limbs, too. And the nightmares. And the depression. And the strange fits of inappropriate laughter. And the agoraphobia. I could go on, but I'd better not. My analyst says I shouldn't risk exposing my weaknesses to others just now.

I wish there was somebody I could apologize to for subjecting my mind to such an appalling movie. And I wish that when I apologized, they could just say, "Okay, I'm sure you've learned you lesson about wasting money and risking your sanity on such a horrific crime against humanity. I absolve you, but don't do it again!" I'd be so grateful I'd be careful only to go to movies that wouldn't suck like that one did.

There. I've confessed and humiliated myself publicly. You satisfied?

Ugh! Stop! I can't take it anymore!


Starship Troopers was pretty meh too, but it did have a really hot gal in it.

I liked the first Starship troopers, But the second one sucked.

I liked the first Starship troopers, But the second one sucked.
So true. I loved the first one but I got pissed off after seeing the second one. It wasnt clever like the first one was at all.

Second one had bad acting and they stole the basic plot from invasion of the body snachers

I haven't seen the movie but I thought it was directed at Thatcher.

Correct, V for Vendetta the comic book was directed at Thatcher. But it's the movie I'm critiquing. The movie was directed more at Bush to kind of keep it up to date. Notice how Sutler wears a little pin with his government's emblem on it similar to the U.S. flag pin Bush wears. In an address to the nation he uses the phrase "our great nation" - a favorite of Bush's. And of course he constantly talks about killing terrorists.

i sadly sat through all 90 mins of that piece of garbage.

Sadly, I did too....

The Godfather 3 was also a disappointing movie, it brought down the rest of the series.

another piece of garbage film was without a paddle.

Quite right. Alan Moore began writing the comic in 1981, when Thatcher's regime was still in its infancy. Here's an exerpt from the introduction to the comic:



Now, if you happen to spot any similarities between that and the current Bush regime... well, 'nuff said.Sure, but it is not specifically aimed at the Bush regime.
...which is exactly the point I was making - that it was not aimed specifically at Bush. I was refuting the post of the person who had said it was aimed at Bush by corroborating the person who had rebutted him.

I thought my point was pretty clear, and in fact at one stage when composing the post I had concluded by saying that the Bush regime is a case of life mirroring art rather than the other way around. However, I figured the average NSer was reasonably bright. I didn't want to insult their intelligence by belabouring such an obvious point, so I removed that part and replaced it with "'nuff said".

*sigh* I guess I overestimated again.

Hmm. Star Wars, all of them. The prequels were a slight bit better than the originals, if only for the improved visuals. All of them were badly directed (even the ones not done by George Lucas), badly edited, TERRIBLY acted and bored me shitless.

Solaris, Aeon Flux, Doom, Final Destination 1-3 and more. Those are all I can be bothered writing at the moment.

I and some friends are on a quest to find and watch the worst film ever made.

Its been about six months or so, with a rate of 2 or three movies a week.

Some of the more recent ones have been as follows:

"King of the Zombies".

"The Mighty Gorga."

"Attack of the Killer Shrews" (Starring Roscoe P Coltrane! Coo! Coo!")

Several Ed Wood films..(Orgy of the Dead, Bride of the Monster, Plan 9..etc)

"Color me Blood Red"
"The Crawling Eye"
"The Godmonster of Indian Flats".
"Burial of Rats"

The list continues...

However, no movie, no matter how awful, hes yet to be as horrid, as putrid, as absolutely terrible as one that I obtained this very Forum...


Robot Monster. (1953.)

This turdfest features both the worst special effects, make up, and especially dialogue, I have ever seen.

Keep in mind Ive been actively searching for the worst turds ever filmed...

So far...this one is the fucking worst.

I forget wich one of you rotten bastards recommended this film to me, and theres probably a place in Hell for people who suggest this film to anyone else....so..I better rerserve my seat.

Watch this film, and you will know what SUCK, really is.

[Hostel - Horrible, over-rated piece of crap!!! One of the worst endings in cinematic history!!!

Army of Darkness - A disgrace to its' predecessors! A truly fucked up way to follow up such classic masterpieces!!!

I'm sure there are more but, these were the first three to pop in my head!!!
I agree with Hostel-- biggest piece of crap movie- the first half nothing more than a soft core p0rn with lots of fatty smokin (all though, the chicks were hot) and the second half, all gore with no story line- WTF?

But, Army of Darkness? Oh no, that has got to be one of the funniest cheesiest movies ever! For that reason, and that reason alone, it needs to be on one of the best movies- the cheese factor makes it great!
"Shop smart. Shop S-Mart.", "THis is my boomstick" Come on, how can a movie that gives us great lines like this be out in the worst movie ever catagory?

To add to the list:
Carnivore
(http://www.carnivoremovie.com/home.html) better acting in a p0rn

Killer Klowns from Outer Space
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095444/

Christine (the book was fantastic, the movie...well...notsomuch)
http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1800047330/info

and that's all I can think of right now

Actually, The Postman was based on a fairly good novel by David Brin. It's just that pretty much anything Kostner turns his hand to magically transforms into complete and utter crap, which is what he did to this story.



with one exception-- 3000 Miles to Graceland-- played the total badass, and well, he was good at it

Hmm. Star Wars, all of them. The prequels were a slight bit better than the originals, if only for the improved visuals. All of them were badly directed (even the ones not done by George Lucas), badly edited, TERRIBLY acted and bored me shitless.


So, if all six of those movies were SO awful, what made you watch all of them?

If you hate Rocky, why watch all 5 rocky movies, you feel me?

Unless, GASP...youre simply saying all that to appear different, or just being obstinate.

Why? I roleplay future tech. I had not seen Star Wars until I encountered nations using it's technology. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Robinson Crusoe on Mars
Spy Kids (all three)

Look, I think youre solidly pack with crap for one reason:

A. If you hated the FIRST Star Wars movie so much, why on earth would you watch five more of them?

You wouldnt.

Unless, you actually liked them a bit more than your letting on.

It would be presumtuous of me to call you a fanboy. Regardless, I never said that I hated the movies. I said they bored me. I've sat through many boring films.

Spy Kids (all three)

Quoted for truth. Although it did have one upside...

;)

Oh man. Spy Kids 3-D made me vomit (the glasses were poorly made and the film was INCREDIBLY bad).

If I were running Guantanamo, I would strap the detainees into chairs, tape their eyelids open, and force them to watch Spy Kids 3-D (with the worst acting ever seen on Earth) until their brains flow out of their noses.

Well Im a fanboy, I cant help it. I keep it in reserve however, and attempt to lead a life outside of my mother's basement, occasionaly in pursuit of the opposite sex...

Regardless, The thread thread title was 'movies you regret ever seeing' so, Im assuming those are the first ones that came to your head.

I would think there are far, far better examples.

Now, If you had said "The first two Star Wars Prequels", I wouldnt have batted an eye.

The Story of Ricky (actually, that was so bad it was funny)
Aussie Park Boys (which was so bad it wasn't even funny anymore)

Has anyone ever seen the Postman? I've only seen a few minutes from the middle. Is that what that movie is about? He's a postman in the near future?
jumping in to plug one of my favorite authors......



the movie is crap. dont bother to go back to see the beginning its not worth that much of your life.

the BOOK is excellent. its by david brin. costner thought that he could improve on brin's story.

he was wrong

The Postman is one of my favorite books of all time. its a post apocalyptic tale of a "mad max" like character who stumbles across a long destroyed mail truck and decides to get a pass into the insular towns of the northwest by pretending to deliver mail. the small amount of (false) hope generated by having the mail delivered makes a huge difference in the lives of people who have given up. adventures ensue.

spend your time looking for a copy of this book instead of watching the piece of crap movie. you wont regret it.

Indeed. Of course, back in my day, movies were called "books".

Matrix III.
My one saving grace was that I didn't have to pay to see it. We took some students along at the end of the year and so I got in free.
But what made a sucky movie even worse was during the film I bit down a popcorn and the kernel inside hadn't 'popped'. I broke a tooth on that bloody thing, which hurt like buggery the rest of the film and cost me a couple of hundred to fix up.
So a sucky movie, a sore tooth and an expensive dentist visit. Can't get much worse than that, surely.

I think part of the problem (besides people who don't understand what a good movie is - The Constant Gardner and Saving Private Ryan bad? Bah) is that we no longer have Drive-In movie theatres. However, Hollywood still makes Drive-In style movies.

Drive-In movies are big, over the top, over acted, sentimental, guilty pleasures. You know it isn't great movie making, but it sure is a fun way to pass two hours. Titanic, Independence Day, King Kong...all are terrific Drive-In movies. I feel sorry for those of you too young to have experienced the unique pleasure of Drive-Ins. You would have a different appreciation of those big, blustery movies if you saw them in their true natural setting - on a gigantic screen in an open field with sound coming in through a tinny, metal speaker hanging off your window.

Don't forget the snogging...

Stealth

Do not watch this movie or your IQ will drop by 20 points, it is by far the worst and dumbest movie ever.

Haha, oh Stealth... when I think of that movie, the first thing that comes to mind is "Fuel-blimp rape! :eek:"

I don't actually regret seeing any of the movies I have, even if they were brain breakingly horrible. Except for this one that I can remember the title of. Some guy in a lab gets bit by a mutant thing when he accidently stabs it in the eye with a needle because he was swapping spit with his lab partner. Then he changes into some creepy monster blob thing. That was an awful movie.

Personally, A New Hope is my least favourite.

Bride and Prejudice. I can't even begin to describe how it plumbs every depth of moviemaking. It can be summed up as follows: boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy stalks girl, girl stalks boy, then they sing at each other in some kind of bizarre mating ritual. People walk out in disgust.

Well - it's (loosely) based on "Pride and Prejudice", so the basic storyline is set in stone... Personally, I didn't think it too bad... and it DOES have Aishwarya Rai in it. *le sigh* (http://www.aishwaryaworld.com/images/llwp.html)

About Event Horizon, I have noticed something very bemusing about it. I believe it is one of the very few movies I prefer watching with the German synchronisation instead of in the original english.

I give you all the points with the english. However what I found more enjoyable about the german version was the voices first of all had life,.. i.e not a droning and seemingly untalented acting. They used often very complex literate words, made the whole thing way more interesting and added to it a new sense of maturity. It was not outstanding but bearable as a movie, whilst with the english version you were just bored within a short time.

I might actually consider a rental - just for the experiment... seriously.

There is a UK vampire movie, I think it's called "Razor Blade Smile".... which is intolerably bad... but we accidentally left it playing while we listened to Nine Inch Nails "The Downward Spiral", and it is really quite good, as an unchallenging visual accessory. :)

Dante's Peak. Only because the bloody dog survives, when in all reality it should have been melted.

Lake Placid was another shit fest, except for betty white.

I'm not ashamed of seeing any movie. If it's bad, I just MST3K it. However, Underworld was so bad, I couldn't even do that. Even Kate Beckinsale in PVC couldn't save that piece of crap.

i'll sit thourhg just about anything if it means watching kate beckinsale in leather.

Battlefield Earth. I am less of a person for having seen that movie.
Jurassic Park 3. Ugh.
Oktober (by Eisenstein). If I've ever seen a film that would fit perfectly into the world of 1984 this is it. Random clippings of various scenes, not in any particular order so as to make sense, and weirdness in general kill this film, from a potentially quite talented filmmaker.
Anything associated with Rob Zombie. I watched one of the films associated with him by accident. I suffered greatly.

I'm not ashamed of seeing any movie. If it's bad, I just MST3K it. However, Underworld was so bad, I couldn't even do that. Even Kate Beckinsale in PVC couldn't save that piece of crap.
I agree wholeheartedly.

I did enjoy the devils rejects.

i'll sit thourhg just about anything if it means watching kate beckinsale in leather.

Sure, if I feel like masturbating. ;)

I also despise the old "The Omen". Minimalism, poorly done studio shots, poor casting (I'm sorry, Gregory Peck is a great actor, but this is most certainly not a role for him) and other weirdness taint the quality that is the new version of "The Omen."

LOL well here you go!

Oh don't forget "One Night in Paris" terrible lighting, bad acting, just all around horrible.

I never did download that video.

LOL well here you go!

I've got the full-size version of that pic if the need...arises... ;)

Napolean Dynamite. Actually I only watched 15 mins of it. But that was a horrible 15 mins.

I love that movie, I've actually seen it three times =)
My worst movie was....Anaconda. I saw it in the cinema and it almost made me cry what a waste of time and money that movie was.

Agreed. On that note, It's Pat was a waste of my time, too, but at least I wasn't paying to watch it.

Considering about four people saw that, and one guy I knew admitted to it, I've tracked down three of them now. :D

I forgot about Napoleon Dynamite. I am ashamed that I've seen that movie. I want my 90 minutes back.

I saw the whole thing, and I hated it. What was funny about it?
It was supposed to be so dumb that it was funny.......didn't work, though.

I sorta regret watching The Sixth Sense for the first time at midnight. I was freaked out thinking that some insane guy was gonna break into my house,

It even had werewolve and vampires, and werepires, and people with guns and swords. Best movie premise ever.

And only allow you to talk to Haley Joel Osment?

yeah and nacho libre doesnt look any better.

yeah and nacho libre doesnt look any better.

I hate Jack Black.

Except Jack Black is funny. He is like Chris Farley reincarnated, but only half as funny. And that's still pretty damn funny.

I hate Jack Black.


ever since neverending story 3 have i hated that man.

only movie i can watch with him in it besides king kong is high fidelity, but he stars in neither.

jack black is no where near as funny as farley was.

No. Just no. Farley wasn't funny either. He was just fat.

You watched that tripe?!?

You watched that tripe?!?


i had to with my little cousins when babysitting years ago, even they hated it.

i have seen shit that i hope no one else here has ever had to sit through, for example good burger. *shudders*

No. Just no. Farley wasn't funny either. He was just fat.


it was the cocaine that made farley funny.

No. Just no. Farley wasn't funny either. He was just fat.
You're a fucking lying son of a bitch.

It was David Spade that wasn't funny. And isn't. Farley and Sandler made Spade funny.

if "movies watched while babysitting" counts... then I add Spongebob Squarepants and the Barney movies...

spongebob is one thing im glad to say ive never seen, and hopefully never will.

Yet somehow it didn't make him thin...

None of those three are/were funny.

yeah that part i never understood.

MI:3 was good, Napolean Dynamite had a few funny parts, Saving Private Ryan was awesome, Scary Movie 4 wasnt as good as the first 3 but it was still funny. you guys dont have a sense of humor or something...

the worst movie is The Hot Chicks, i would say Princess Diary 2 but it had a lesbian makout scene so it was alright.

okay, let me get this straight, you dont think Farley, Sandler, or Spade is funny? do you think ANYONE is funny? let me guess you like stupid shows like Lenno and Conan, right? or you dont ever luagh. and Nacho Libra was funny as hell, it is nothing like Napolean Dynamite. You guys are messed up or something.

how about Space Balls? Robing Hood Men in Tights? support your local sherif? the 3 Stooges? you gotta like something

None of those three are/were funny.
Well you can go to hell for lack of a sense of humour.

Little Women.

Little Women.


or just about any period piece with winona ryder in it

Well you can go to hell for lack of a sense of humour.

Or you can ride the short bus for thinking that a guy playing the "oh, look, I'm fat!" card is not funny.

Have you ever actually seen Farley in anything or are you just bullshitting that you even know who he is? Very few, if any, of his routines, movies, or anything else was based around him being fat.

I'm so glad to find out im not the only one who didnt like Napolean Dynomite.

The Aviator was the worst movie I've ever seen. When Leonardo was in that plane crash I was really excited cuz I thought he would die and the movie would be over. But no, he didn't. I want my 3 hours back.

The Land Before Time movies are so terrible, yet so classic, I love them. And I know when i'm 25 and have kids they're gonna be like, mom, I wanna rent Land Before Time 342. Maybe by the time I become a grandmom the dinosaurs will finally become extinct. Somehow, I doubt it, though.

Adam Sandler can be funny, but isnt always. David Spade is actually un-funny. I'm too young to know a lot of Farley, but he was okay in what I saw.

you need to go rent Black Sheep, Waynes World, Tommy Boy, Airheads, and just watch David Spades show on Comedy Central, its pretty good, oh and for him rent Joe Dirt. or you could just watch some old Saturday Night Live.

and the only movies Adam Sandler wasnt funny in were; his first movie, overboard; Punch Drunk Love; and Spanglish (was too love storyee)

Tommy Boy - supported by Farley; old SNL - supported by Farley and Sandler; Spade wasn't even in Wayne's World; I don't see Spade in Airheads either. The David Spade show isn't funny. Joe Dirt is the only thing he has been good in by himself.

No, they were based around a fat guy being stupid or manic.

Good job. You made an opinion that Farley wasn't funny based on your own opinion that all the skits and movies were esentially based on Farley being fat.
Cluichstan has a thing against fat people. Spread it around.

Yup, that's me. I form my opinions on people based on their weight. :rolleyes:

Could you possibly be more of a fucktard?

Wait...sorry I asked that. You probably can, and I'd rather not see it.

If you have a thing against slapstick and situational comedy that is your problem, but it has nothing to do with Farley being fat.
I bet you hate Family Guy, American Dad, South Park, Futurama, and uh.. every damn comedy shown in America.

I do have a thing against slapstick or so-called physical "comedy," but tell me...have a skinny guy do Farley's motivational speaker or any of his other characters. Funny? No. But for people who like to laugh at crazy fat guys, sure. :rolleyes:

It wouldn't be funny now because Farley defined the parts. Duh.

You so fail. *shakes head*

i wasnt saying they all were in every movie, i was just saying those are some movies to prove any/all are funny. and the David Spade show is funny you just havent given it a chance (or you arent smart enough to understand what he is saying). and for waynes world and airheads i was just talking about Farley. oh and spade was in 'old snl' and i think he hosted it once.

and even if Farley did use his weight to get laughs, he was still funny.

Old SNL? Cripes, kid...you have no idea.

You so fail. *shakes head*
For Farley defined characters, it would be hard to not resemble Farley and make the character live up to his potential.

Would Blues Brothers groups be even seeable if the actors didn't resemble Belushi and Akyroyd in the parts?

It would be hard to be a really skinny guy and do Matt Foley and it would be hard to be a Farley sized guy and do Sandler's boy scout character.

Old SNL? Cripes, kid...you have no idea.

i was using the way some1 else posted it. and i do have an idea, its called a dad. you see some people have dads or FATHERS and they occasionally share their wisdom with their SONS. so i have seen any GOOD movie/show you can throw at me and im only 16 and still get more pussy then you.

Oh, and learn the difference between "then" and "than," as well as that whole silly capitalisation and punctuation thing.

You are really helping me out here. :rolleyes:

since when was i trying to help you? if your serious, thats cool, but if your being sacastic (the italics) then read my first sentance again.
