What Are Some Movies You HATE?
An idea that Atrios snagged from another blogger, but still a worthwhile topic.
Here are a few of mine in no particular order:
"Grease" Just...just fuck this goddamn movie. Every time two dorky chuckleheads get up at a karaoke bar and start doing "Summer Nights", I die a little more inside. And yes, a guy that frequents karaoke bars can feel that kind of pain...
"Shag: The Movie" When I moved to North Carolina for college, my fat toad of a freshman year roommate watched this movie and the aforementioned "Grease" constantly with his judgmental hag of a girlfriend. This movie is huge reason why I still am very skeptical of Southern culture and probably always will be...
"Mars Attacks" I made it through almost an hour of this shit salad in the theater. If you've seen it, you know what I mean. If you haven't, you've been warned...
"Rudy" I love an underdog story as much as the next guy, but this movie can go fuck itself. This thing is so chockful of cliches and Notre Dame-ass-kissing, it gets hard to breathe about 20 minutes in. Sean Astin definitely didn't help matters, either. Am I the only person that wanted to see him get absolutely laid out a la Corey Haim at the end of "Lucas"?
"America's Sweethearts" I can't remember too much about this one, except that it was full of self-referential Hollywood bullshit. That and Julia Roberts, too. Yuck...
P.S. You conservatives can't say you hate Michael Moore's movies because I know you haven't seen any of them, so don't start...
UPDATE: Since I can't comment on the thread, I'll say it here:
Jeff, if you hate Jane Fonda so much, why are you watching her movies?
