Inglorious Basterds. Just another run-of-the-mill flick about Americans killing Nazis, which somehow is A-OK because their leader was a douche. I don't get the appeal.

Well, somebody must like High School Musical, or it wouldn't have spawned two sequels :P Same with the reprehensible Twilight - if it had sunk without trace, as it clearly deserved to, then it wouldn't have got a sequel either.

I blame the teenage girls who buy the books and think Stephanie Meyer invented werewolves :P

Reminds me of this:

PunkyKat: HOW do you not like Lord of the Rings? Srsly. I don't care that you don't like it, I'm just super curious.

Hmm.. I can't say "Twilight" really, because nobody I know likes Twilight so it doesn't apply, hahaha.

I dunno, I guess I wasn't too into "Hot Fuzz". It was alright but for some reason I didn't really want to watch it a second time. (Even though I like Sean of the Dead.) Maybe I would like it better if I saw it again, but I can't bring myself to sit and watch it.

One of the best movies ever is listed above me :evil:

I don't really like the Lord of The Rings, the books or movies. I also wasn't a huge fan of Good Fellas. I'm a big fan of The Hobbit though.

Before I forget, anything by James Cameron except the terminators.

Knocked Up, Pineapple Express, and almost every 3D animated movie not done by Pixar.

Hard to chose "the worst movie ever"- there are so many! - but The Hurt Locker is definitely the worst movie I've seen in the last 2 or 3 years.

Well I certainly don't hate Up, but I'm not a huge fan of it like everyone else seems to be.
I thought it was a sweet movie, I just didn't think it was an amazing one, that's all.

I didn't like Back to the Future or Lord of the Rings at all. I really don't understand their appeal. In the case of BttF, it might be because it's an "80s movie" and I'm a 90s kid. As for LotR, it's because I've never gotten into the whole "fantasy" genre; it makes me feel ridiculously geeky for some reason.

WARNING. The following is a series of petty, overly opinionated movie rants.

300: It's just a typical war movie with piss-poor acting and nauseating special effects. Seriously, I felt like I was going to puke while watching this garbage.

National Lampoon films: A bunch of unfunny comedy movies that basically scream the message "GET LAID, DRINK BEER, AND DO DRUGS!" as if they're trying to convince you that there's no other choice on how to live your life. They are also degrading to women, and they make me feel ashamed to be a guy (because unlike the male characters in these movies, I actually have control over my sex drive).

Kevin Smith movies: Not that they're terrible movies, I just can't watch these films for more than 15 minutes without either changing the channel, falling asleep, walking away, or using the computer.

Batman Begins: No matter how many times I try to watch this film, I end up falling asleep less than 1/4 into the movie.

That's it for my movie rants. Have a nice day. :D

Burn after reading
Forgetting Sarah Marshall - What was the appeal of this crap? :lol:
Knocked up - I thought this film was really dull...
High School Musical - The biggest load of rubbish with a cringeworthy cast.
Spiderman 3 - Thought it was pretty boring. I never liked how Toby Maguire played Spider-Man. The comics are much funnier.:D

Unless you're a tween or an emo then chances are you're not going to care for either of those movies.

Public Enemies. It got great reviews and a couple of other Johnny Depp lovers I know enjoyed it, but I didn't like it at all for some reason.
