| Re: Worst film seen... Worst...(Jives cries softly to himself) my favorite book, a 2000 page sci-fi epic, compared to Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark, written by one of the grandfathers of science fiction, so good I read it five times... Then utterly, completely annihilated as a movie. battlefield earth....(sob) |

| Super Moderator | Re: Worst film seen... I have to say that the worst, the very worst movie I ever saw was Raise the Titanic, based on the novel by Clive Cussler. I was so disappointed, because the whole time I was reading the book, way back when it first came out, I kept thinking, "This is going to make a great movie." And it could have. But they messed it up. It was horribly miscast, and just generally horrible. I was really kind of bitter about that for awhile. Although, now that I think about it, Drugstore Cowboy was pretty bad as well. I only sat through the whole thing because it was shown in a film class I took and I had to watch it. I understand that among some folks it is considered quite the masterpiece, which is fine. I thought it was awful. |

| Re: Worst film seen... Ghostworld - ridiculous movie about a dumb spoilt ugly fat ignoramus trying to make herself out to be some sort of heroine for having the most mundane and pointless 'issues' ever. Moulin Rouge - On hearing the sunscreen song, i thought Baz Luhrman had scraped the greatest possible depths of being perverse and vile. Little did I know that he'd barely scratched its surface. With moulin rouge he avenged himself on several generations of good songs by raping them mercilessly, tearing out the foetuses from the quivering loins of his victims, and gorging on them. I think I passed out for a good 15 minutes from the overwrought dialogue, the nauseating cutesyness, and my unbearable rage and desire to get into the film and kill everybody associated with it including the spot boys, caterers and assistants to the assistants of the costume designers. Those 15 minutes were a merciful and tranquil respite before Luhrman crammed his cinematic **** up the noses of the audience with another loud song sequence. Oh and I also loathe most people who like the movie. If you think jokes about the "seetah playah" and songs like "for always" are entertaining, you better pray I never become dictator of the world cause I will track y'all down and...it won't be as bad as moulin rouge but it will be rather ugly. I'm betting Luhrman is squirrled away somewhere, thinking about some fresh atrocity he can unleash on the world. I'm conjecturing it will probably be a reworking of some much-loved story — with the aesthetics of Cannibal Holocaust, the performances of a Hong Kong kung fu movie, and the soundtrack of a foundry. The bastard. |

| Re: Worst film seen... That reference ^ pretty much sums it up. There is almost no plot to Manos Hands of Fate, and that rediculous hunchback named Torgo? had an annoying voice and a weird limp paired with puffy knees. If you must see it, I recommend you watch the Mystery Science Theater 3000 version of it. At least you get to watch funny commentary along with this horrid movie. |
