In a class I took last semester, the prof made us watch this old black and white movie called "The Manchurian Candidate". He broke it up into segments so that it took a few classes to get through it.

I usually did one of the following during the movie:

-sleep
-photo editing on my laptop

When it came time for the discussion, I simply pulled up a synopsis on IMDB.com, answered a question based on what I read there, and got my full participation points.

That movie has been remade a few times, I haven't actually seen any of them, but how do you know it was stupid if you didn't watch it? And at least you had the opportunity to watch the whole movie. My 10th grade Literature teacher was showing us the black and white version of Lord of the Flies when we were reading the book, and would always rewind it to the beginning before starting it so we only ever ever saw the first half, about 20 times... Class would end right after Piggy got smashed by a rock.

Hands down:

The Pokemon Movie. I took my son to see it years ago and it seemed like the first 15 minutes of it was nothing but dancing Poke-creatures. I felt like I was watching a screen-saver.

Runners-up:
- "Night of the Lepus" (killer bunny rabbits]
- Monty Python's 'Holy Grail' (the launching-cows scene was pretty funny, though - I giggled slightly)
- Dumb and Dumberer
- All the 'Scary Movie' movies and subsequent spin-offs, including 'Epic Movie'
- Anything by Pixar, but especially the surfing penguin movie
- Cartoons of any sort
- 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (I think that's the title)
- Any romance movies
- 'Team America'
- 'Legally Blonde'
- Anything with Sandra Bullock in it

There are more, but the list is too freakin' l-o-n-g....

Surf's Up was not a Pixar movie. And Team America was worth watching solely for the monologue about p*****s, Dicks, and Asses.

I cannot believe anyone can not like "Monty Python and the Holy Grail".

romantic comedies are awful, unless John Cusack and/or Zooey Deschanel are somehow involved.

I hated "Titanic" ("Sink, you b*****ds! Sink!"). Fell asleep during both "Robocop" and "Top Gun". That should tell you how I feel about blockbusters. And I loathed "Eight Below" (which I saw only because at the time I was the devoted owner of two Siberian Huskies). ***SPOILER ALERT*** The ads made the film look like this big adventure with fluffy dogs. Instead, the dogs had to be abandoned and were left chained up. Eventually they break free, leaving behind the eldest who hasn't the strength to move on. Off they go (with the words "Days On Their Own : # " appearing every so often to let you know just how deep the frozen doo-doo is getting. Later, while dazzled by the "Southern Lights", another dog slips and falls to his death, leaving a mourning twin behind. The twin, however, chooses to move on with the pack whereas the youngest member of the group stays behind to whimper next to his fallen comrade. It was at this point I clearly recall nudging my husband (who was also crying) and asking, "They billed this as a family film, right?"

Just some of the other films I'd stuff down the toilet if I thought they'd fit:

"Devil Dog: The Hound of Hell" (Oh, yeah, it's real)

The collected works of Steven Seagal

"Shadey" (it kinda defies explaining)

"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" (George Burns sings the Beatles. 'Nuff said)

Absolutely psycotic.

the only stupid movies I remember are the ones that are stupid in a good way with that in mind.

Heres my list.

Red spectacles: sure it's based on the existentialist idea that life is a recurign dream but it's just so Random and weird it makes no sense, I mean one moment he beating the s#$% out of soem attacker an the next he shares beer with one with a neone sing readin "beer", than he proceeds ot beat the s%^& out of him. you need to see it to know why it's a great film.

Space balls: it was such a excellently absurd parody supposedly the reason ther wasn't asecond was because gorge lucas payed Mel Brooks alot of money not to make anoth

airplane: once agian Good stupid, I only wish I could speak Jive as good as that old lady.

BTW, the jive lady in Airplane! was Barbara Billingsley, who played June Cleaver on Leave it to Beaver.

The Perfect storm

My friends and I where almost kicked out of the theater because we where laughing so much.

The concept was fine, they just did a really bad job making the film.

Gus Van Sant's "Elephant", undeniably Fans of sophisticated, independent movies may get an orgasm watching and discussing it but it's one of the weakest films I've ever seen I liked only the motive of those boys' friendship.

'Kristmas with the Kranks'

Jamie Leigh Curtis and that guy from Home Improvement.

Nothing could improve that horrid movie.

Ironically the soundtrack is one the BEST Christmas music compilations to come out since White Christmas...go figure.

'Killer tomatos' is only cool if you were raised in San Jose, CA.
