I liked the Da Vinci Code, but I haven't read the book, so I guess that's why. I was gonna read the book a while back before I saw the movie, but then I read 1984 instead.


You'd LOVE the book! You'd also love Angels and Demons. (Esp. with the Colliseum as your avatar.)

1984's cool, too. Have you read Fahrenheit 451?

Cool.

I haven't read Fahrenheit 451, but I've heard of it somewhere. What's it about?

Kinda like 1984. Its about a "fireman" who's job it is to burn books - deemed inappropriate by the Ministry of Information. Its a pretty quick read. (451F is the burn temp of paper) Ray Bradbury. Awesome story for freak, rebel, rabble-rousers like us!

Sounds cool, I might get it from Amazon once I have some more money.

One day our grandfather wanted to spend some time with his grandchildren, which is unusual, because he generally tries to avoid us. He took my little sister and I to see "Shazaam", starring Shaquille O'Neal. It was so awful, we left the theatre in the middle of it.

It was even worse than Eddie Murphy's version of Doctor Doolittle. Nauseatingly bad! The one and only time our grandfather showed any interest in us, and that stupid "Shazaam" ruined it. Such a shame. I think I will always harbor some irrational resentment toward Shaqille O'Neal as a result, LOL.

You poor bastards have no idea how bad it can get. Trust me, anything that came out of Hollywood is several orders of magnitude better than the worst it can get.

The worst movie I ever saw was Plan 9 from Outer Space. Crap acting, crap plot, crap set, and a director so inattentive that shots of an actor pointing a pistol at himself made it into the final cut. It's the single worst American-made movie I've ever seen. Solid 1/10 at IMDB.

Unfortunately, then I watched Robo Vampire. You have no idea how bad a film can get until you watch this. I'd just outline what I think the plot was for illustration, but I don't know what the plot was, so I'll just list the major events that I remember. I have some PTSD, it's all fuzzy

A soldier gets killed by a snake.
A drug lord b*****s about anti-drug agents, so one of his advisors says he should hire a taoist priest to raise vampires to fight the anti-drug agents.
The vampires, who are dressed like kung-fu actors from China, attack like...

You know, I'll just post the website I found when I was trying to find out what the hell I was watching:

http://www.encyclopedia-obscura.com/mov ... mpire.html

Yeah, try to think of a movie you've seen that's worse than that.

anything any of you like.





(just kidding.)
I've seen some pretty sh***y s**t before, but whatever. Good Movies rule.

There's a guy at work who will bug the absolute hell out of me until I watch his favorite movies, which I usually don't like:
Sahara
13th Warrior
Twilight

Most anything SNL-based sucks. (Oh, god. I had to watch Superstar last night. It was one of the worst movies I've seen, at least in the PG-13 world.) And Mr. Bean's Holiday... but then, most G-rated movies are terrible works now that I'm 17. =/

I'm pretty sure I would rather watch Plan 9 From Outer Space than most of the movies in the cinema today. I guess it means I can't relate to most cinephiles; I want to watch films to be entertained, and to that end no actors or competent effects can make up for a disposable Hollywood storyline and the usual cinematography.

I'm actually a big fan of kitsch, so I get a good laugh out of 'bad' movies. Plan 9 was definitely the 'best'.

So for me to think a movie's bad, it's got to be boring and irritating instead of mockable. Thus, I nominate Final Fantasy: Spirits Within. I'd rather watch a brick wall for two hours. It's sure to be less mediocre.

Querelle (1982) :P

Totally obsessive about Midnight Express which Brad Davis is in, heard alot about Querelle as his other major film role so found it on video in Oxfam, as soon as it started I was bored, from the first line I knew the whole thing was gonna be awful. And it truly was. 106 minutes - believe I could probably have watched the 3hr long The Green Mile (which I love and have seen 6 times) in a shorter time (not literally but it would feel less time).

Also hate:
Mr and Mrs Smith
Hope Springs
Kangaroo Jack
Lost in Space (saw it in the cinema at 7 and was terrified)
Men in Black (saw it in the cinema at 6 and was terrified)
Eragon (NO COMPARISONS WITH BOOK - WHERES THE POINT)
and some more I think :P

I was gonna watch that when it was on TV the other day, but I missed it. It didn't sound that good anyway, TBH.
