Movies that SHOULDN'T be remembered

    "An Officer and a Gentlemen"

    Honestly! What is the hype with this movie? Watching it now and it is a badly acted piece of crap that wouldn't pass the mustard as a Dawsons Creek Episode.

    The fact that it's so often referenced and "that scene" at the end in particular, makes me sick.

    Closer

    Biggest piece of ****ing ****e I have ever had the ****ing displeasre of ****ing watching. ONE SCENE was tolerable...PURELY because it featured Natalie Portmans perfectly shaped backside. But the rest of it?!! NO MAN...NO ****ING MAN wants all the details of his girlfriend cheating on him, its the most contrived condescending pile of steaming, festering, utterly USELESS WASTE OF GOOD CELLULOID SHIIIIIIIIIIIITE EVER!!!

    300. What a waste of time.
    And I have not seen Alien vs. Predator movies. And I am proud about that!

    300 will always be remembered, rightly so cause it's made of ****ing win coated in awesomesauce. :)

    Matrix Revolutions. Apart from having some really cool action scenes, it was the weakest of the 3, and I had high hopes after reloaded that they were actually going somewhere with the story... :/

    "300"...defines cliche'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 854 ✭✭✭JangoFett


    The movie is about 300 guys killing the ****e out of thousands of other guys...were you expecting oscar winnign performances or something?

    The movie was billed as a beautifully shot kick ass-fest

    Every film can be seen as a cliché if you WANT to see it as that

    Batman & Robin. It's not even entertaining like films such as Commando in that you can enjoy it on a 'so bad it's good' level. It's just really really terrible.

    Also Highlander 2 was quite awful. I read that subsequent films/spin offs of the highlander story totally ignored the plot and events of the film due to the widespread hatred for it.

    There is a version of Highlander 2 called the Renegade Edition which is actually quite good. It gets rid of the whole Alien thing and instead has the immortals as beings whom have lived on Earth since the beginning of time. Anyone whom endured the initial cut of 2 should check it out. That said I don't think anyone remembers highlander 2 as anything more than an abomination.
