Statikk's Movies to Stay Away From.
Lion's Gate really did a great job of whoring themselves out with this muddled and poorly paced flick. They got it a big showing America-wide and gave the film to every major reviewer and it paid off.
My biggest beef is that its way too hard to follow. Everyone receives these revelations and profound life experiences that intricately intertwine with everyone elses...in about ten poorly placed, shot, and paced minutes. They also make Asian people look like assholes in the film and Dillon's role sucks big time and is overacted and preachy. This is worth a dollar halfsies rental with a bunch of your drunk buddies to MST3k it. On my rating scale... 0-1: Battlefield Earth with man ass 1-2: Battlefield Earth 3-4: A Val Kilmer Batman movie. 5-6: This is hard but I'm going with Titanic. 7-8: Pretty good, movies you liked as a kid but still dig now like the Goonies, Sandlot, stuff just a cut above the rest but missing that something to put it over the top 9-10: teh kickass, Goodfellas, all those 'Nam movies from the 80s, 90s, major culturally significant blockbusters like Star Wars, Jaws, Jurassic Park, cult movies that you love like Falling Down, Repo Man, and Army of Darkness. I give Crash a 6 and there is no way it should have got film of the year |
Ummm... I don't know anything about the film beyond that it won a lot of Oscars. Care to elaborate on what it's all about?

I believe he's talking about Crash.
This should just be an overrated movie thread. I've been meaning to start a thread like this for a while. 2001: A Space Odyssey. Quite possibly the most overrated film I've ever seen. Yeah, the parts with HAL, or whatever the hell that robot's name is, are moderately interesting, because you get to see some pretty spiffy interaction between humans and advanced AI. As for the everything before that, too drawn out. And the ending? Can we say "pretentious?" Wow. Five minutes of multi-colored shots of an eyeball and a moving landscape. Genious. |
I just saw crash, and I thought it was an amazing movie.
One of the worst I can say, probably Dream catcher. Yes it's Steven king and blah blah blah. But the characters were so simplistic and happy-go-lucky that I felt like vommiting. And oh god, what a horrible ending, nothing better than watching two slug like aliens fornicating eachother with their tails. |
I remember early on in school career seeing 2001: A Space Odyssey on a book report list. I was amped about something like that so I took. Goddamn, that book was boring!
The HAL parts, especially how HAL was killed were cheesier than Chester Cheetah in a kiddie pool of Velveeta listening to Manowar albums. The book even had the balls to say it was the "best science fiction novel of all time". Back on topic, though. The Saw movies are so effing overrated. I had somebody say they put it up there with Silence of the Lambs and Se7en as one of the best serial killer movies of all time. The movies had shitty acting and terrible lens/camera work. To top it all off: easy to see "twists", the second one especially. |
The worst movie in the world is PLAN NINE FROM OUTER SPACE!
honstly , you guys have to see it to believe it! it features # Spaceships made out of paper plates # Model tombstones falling over in the background scenes # Scenes that switch from night time , to daylight in seconds # Bela lugosi was originally going to be cast as dracula in the film , but he died halfway through shooting , so the new dracula ( who was the directors bro ) had to keep his face covered by his cape in every scene! I give it a big fat 0! |
Ed Wood is a god. I give that an 11.
|
Aren't you just the B-movie ****ing genius, outlaw...
An overrated film? Chronicles of Riddick. If anyone likes that movie, I have an instant dislike of you. No exceptions. It's the worst piece of crap you'll ever see, and not the good crap like Dracula vs Frankenstein. |
God supermunch , calm down , what the hell have I done to upset you? All I wanted to do was share with other members a really crap movie , And you go and bury me for it. So why?
|
Manos: The Hand of Fate + man ass equals the end of ALL CINEMA.
I liked Pitch Black(sorta), so how bad could Chronicles be? How about the Ralph Bakshi Lord of The Rings? SUCKS BALLS. |

Why , arent you the most cynical sh*thead ive ever met!:p Lay off buddy , I know im a n00b and most inferior to you , but please stop the un necessary annoying , kindof insulting comments , thanks.

You know, if you really want less trouble, than why do you continue to stoke these flames? Because it seems down right hypocritical and pathetic of you to preach all this bullshit about good forum behavior when you are continuing to do something countless people have asked you to stop, and thats spamming.
If you want to keep this up, please do it via PM, but stop spamming up this thread, both of you pissers. Now, Another film I really just couldn't be in the same room with at the same time, was Spy kids, I was told it was this amazing spectacular of a movie that really went past the whole kiddie scene. What a load of shit that was, I enjoyed the film on a moderate scale when I was younger, but even then I was still hoping for something a little more epic. |
:
That is all, as I shall respect Gabe's proposition. :
|
All I have to say is thank god someone else realizes that 2001 is a piece of pure garbage.

The Brothers Grimm: Shocking.
It needs no reasons to why it's scrap, it just is. That's how bad it is. - Rexy |
Here's a rubbish one: The Swimmer. A guy swimming to freedom across peoples' backyard pools. Was said to be good, is awful. Another pretty poor one is Calendar Girls, I expected it to be mildly amusing, it too was worse than disappointing.
|
You want a good movie?
A day without a Mexican Classic... oh, and I'm back. |
Nice to meet you. And sorry supermunch and Used , I have tryed being pathetic in a desperate attempt to gain respect , Jesus im a dick sometimes:)
Another crap movie is " Willow " . Its actually set down here in n.z , but The graphics are crapper than expected , even for 1988. Utter shitefest. |
Off-topic:
Hey, a veteran member returns from the grave again (well, from October last year, whic his sitl a long itme on forums) ,this time nads. Never really met you proper on here nads, but good to have an old member back. |
I hate it when movies come out with a bad kiddy sequal, e.g Son of the mask, stuat little, Jurassic Park, Home alone 3 and the new star wars films.
P.S Um outlaw king, did i miss something what everyone else knew? your a Intern Shock Rocker so how comes you call yourself a noob |
Well , abe 01 , I joined in Feburary 2006 , so technically , I still am a n00b , I guess.
I now avoid all spy kids movies! They are tedious! |
Juat because someone posts a lot aorund doesn't mean they have been completely assimilated into the system. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.
EDIT: Beaten to it. |
I'm gonna throw Baby Geniuses out here...FOR THE WIN.
I'd rather be cockpunched than be forced to watch that movie again. |
I personally was not impressed with Texas Chainsaw Massacre (A.K.A Texas Chainstore Manicure), but that's mostly because I'm jaded to blood and gore.
In my opinion, stay the hell away from Labrynth (sp?) and The Never-Ending Story. I'm still pissed that I wasted precious time watching those god-awful excuses for movies. I probably have more on my "To Hate For The Rest of Eternity" list, but I can't think right now, I have to catch my bus. |
You know...I never liked 2001 either. Did you guys see the sequel...2010? Haven't seen it in a while...but I remember thinking it was better than the first.
Another movie everyone should stay away from Sahara... need I say more? -oddguy |
I know one that isn't out yet to stay away from...Abe's Oddysee!
I mean, OWF will be overun by idiots who only know about the film. I would give it...nothing! I haven't seen it yet! |
