anything with Nicolas Cage




Raising Arizona, Wild at Heart, Moonstruck, The Rock (ok, cheesy but fun), Matchstick Men, and Adaptation are all movies I love or like.

But yeah, he's made so much crap by now it's unbelievable. Dude just doesn't seem to care. I already posted that I walked out of Ghost Rider 2.

Ouch. You are correct.

And for a second, I actually thought you meant Honeymoon in Vegas. . . .

Any movies out there that you just absolutely can't sit through?



Nearly every film starring Adam Sandler from the last decade.




Oh my god, seriously. It's gotten to the point that merely seeing this guy makes irritable. Completely and utterly talentless and rewarded endlessly.It's mind boggling.

I walked out of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

I'm pretty sure I avoid most of the movies I would hate.

Any movie with Sean Penn (except for Fast Times at Ridgemont High) and any Woody Allen movie.

I really like a lot of Woody Allen movies that DON'T actually have him in it. Where he's only directing . . .

You don't like Gran Torino??????




No! It was like a freakin' after-school special! I was excited to see it and after a whole bunch of times of my wife shooting it down from redbox, she finally relented and we rented it. The speech was so cliched and so over-the-top. The part where I admitted defeat and finally just turned it off was that godawful cringeworthy barber shop scene where he's "teaching" the kid to interact "like a man." I couldn't take it anymore. Awful. Awful, terrible, awful.

Ah, that's a good candidate. That was one of the 10 most-disappointing movies I actually ever sat through, but I sat through it, so I couldn't list it here.

Yep. Directed by Clint, the man, Eastwood.

Also, Penn was the BOMB in Carlito's Way.

In my post about it, I ALMOST typed the same thing.

Another R-Rated after-school special in my book? American History X.

I can't sit through a lot of movies.......

Mainly the one's where one of these things happens:

Superhero saves the day....but then something happens so that he can't save the day...but because he is so clever, he finds another way to save the day.

Dude is totally diggin this chick, and she is totally into him...but then something happens and she doesn't really dig him anymore.....but then he finds some way to get her digging again...and so she digs him again (but she was probably a skank the whole time.).

Action hero guy is an ex-cop, his wife left him, and all the chips are down...and he keeps screwing up...but this time---he knows that these are terrorists and he is on to something big...all he needs is one more chance to save the city, get his wife back, and reconnect with his daughter.....this is his last chance....to be a hero.

Any movie that follows that same hero/boyfriend/average joe----action sequence---some unforeseen circumstance----trouble...happy pretty resolution.

Yea. that stuff is stupid and leads me to question my very existence.

I stopped watching looney tunes at a young age because coyote never caught road runner---it seriously ruined my childhood. That and Jerry constantly getting away from Tom.....so aggravating.....just fry that freaking mouse already....kill it and leave it dead on your owners doorstep for god sakes......

Yea.....I don't like a lot of movies...





So basically the only movies you like are True story movies on Lifetime?

I watch a lot of movies on the independent film channel, and the documentary channel....

Other than that, a movie has to stand outside mainstream cinema in some way.....I don't like all the cliche plot lines that infest Hollywood...

I guess I watch some movies like that from time to time, but often have to change the channel during certain sappy parts......

pretty much any film on this channel. i hate when i accidentally type this channel number and it pops up some ridiculously boring talk-fest or documentary about something nonsensical. even the 10seconds or so it takes to go find the channel I was actually trying to get to is torture.
