[B]Cmon everyone..I think we've all seen our share of corny ass movies that we've seen, whether it be because we actaully wanted to see them or we thought that it looked like a good movie, but it caught us off guard and was the gayiest movie, Mine would have to be Legally blonde, I just got around to watching cause everyone saidit was a good movie, but it turned out to be the worse and dumbiest, I mean is this what weve been reduced to for movie options? Legally Blonde? It wasnt even worth the money I spent to rent it.. [/B][/QUOTE]

the fact that you THOUGHT that was going to be good has forced me to have a brain anyureism (aka brainfart)

dumbass

Bill & Ted?

Bill and Ted was good, for being really bad...

"Nobody puts Baby in the corner."

It's lines like that, and the women who loved them, that encouraged the Lifetime Network to exist.

Bill and Ted rules, yet to see bogus journey though.

Bogus Journey was a bit of a letdown...just because of that stupid ass Station character.

They needed to bring back Beethoven and Socrates.

Dont ever say Life time channel to me..that is the beginning of the end right there..

I loved Donnie Darko though..nice pic SnowWhite

for the record, i hate the lifetime channel too.

a friend wanted to go to 2fast2furious, there was no way in fuck i wanted to see that, but im a pushover, and for some reason i felt obligated to go... worse move ive ever made. The theater broke down a little less than halfway through, i was more thankful then id been in a long time

i usually know which movies are going to suck for me, so i avoid them, but when i was working at the movie theater i saw at least bits and pieces of movies, regardless of what they were, because i had to clean the theaters. swanyway, mighty joe young, i think, was the biggest piece of crap to splatter the screen in a long time.

as far as movies i can tell would suck for me: legally blonde and 2fast2furious are movies i'd have to see propped up and strapped down like the guy in a clockwork orange.

bill and ted, however, kick ass.

The Seventh Seal

That Darn Cat.

well yeah, but ive seen it enough, that last nite, i didnt even laugh. well barely. i was deeply saddened. i used to love them.

LXG fucking sucked.

LXG came out already? dammit i'm so out of the loop..this is what happneed when you dont get the news at your door anymore...i always have to chekc it ont he net

the seventh seal? what was wrong/bad with it? i was disappointed yes..but that's beacuse it was a dubbed version and i hate that...dubbing should be banned...read the goddamn subtitles fools...but keep in mind..it is bergman's 2nd film...see the thing with bergman , at least with his 3rd feature., wild strawberries, is that it was a pain in the ass to watch the first time...perhaps it was because i was sitting in a cubicle watchign it on headphones..but after thinkin more about it...you acutally appreciate it etc etc...its one of those films that are easier to talk about rather than watch...wait not easier..but more interesting

Wrong Turn and About Schmidt.

But at least About Schmidt was free, my mom let me borrow her rented video (we bought her a dvd player, hooked it up, and she still rents videos). But it was so boring. wrong turn was just bad.

About the lifetime channel...yeah it's bad...but they play Mad About You. For some reason I've loved that show forever.

I was kidding about the seventh seal, I was torn between posting that, breaking the waves, my dinner with andre or sleuth.

About Scmidt was bad?! Maybe I'm biased towards it, but it's a good movie.

Haven't seen a lot of bad movies lately....so I'm just going to go with That Darned Cat, like Aurelius. Because that was just so friggin poor.

I'm going to have to go with Jackie Brown. All girls seem to love it, I seem to hate it. Boring, sleep-inducing movie that it is.

*glowers* Just cause I'm a girl!!!!!!!1111

[b]8 Mile[/b]
[size=1]It gave me a headache[/size]

"Man, alls we do is talk shit." Eminem, 8 Mile

Precisely. The film took a tedious maximalist approach leaving us with a very short chapter of Eminem's life in Detroit rather than a plot-driven story. I was expecting a "rise to fame story" which maybe was not innovative enough for the likes of Eminem but would have been much more entertaining then this elongated dreary minute-by-minute retelling.

The film is book ended by two battles. In these battles two ambitious ryhmers try and out rap one another in tense duels. Insulting is the only weapon and 45 seconds is on the clock. The first battle begins with a scared choke-artist Eminem. The ending battle is predictable and perhaps laced with some arrogance. In between is a boring rendition of a Day In the Life of Eminem.

The headache. Outside voices were the exclusive speech patterns among these uneducated foul-mouthed "gangstas". Constant indecipherable yelling. The film was mostly dialogue. But the dialogue although probably accurate to the streets could in no way carry the film for its allotted 100 minutes. Most of it you could not understand and that you could was written with as much inspiration as the film outputs. Very little. Unless you're an obsessed fan or think SPOILER one minor victory is any sort of large step in the right direction. The film tries hard to inspire and instill a spirit of "you can do anything you set your mind to" but fails miserably when its majority is cat fights and high-volumed f-bombs.

It does deserve a few nods though. None to do with Eminem. The cinematography is something Scorsese would be proud of. It is beautiful in an urban sense and enables you to force yourself through the film. Kim Basinger is the other positive of the film. Her very realistic torn mother portrayal is moving and mesmerizing. Her shared scenes with Eminem were great to watch. It was interesting to see how bad Eminem was when having to compete with the likes of her.

The redundancy of the film was amazing. I heard the same "Lose Yourself" at least three times. This greatly complemented the reoccurring insults, words, and scenes. A pattern almost. The editing need also be noted here. Well, pointed out more directly. It has already been subtlety jabbed at with my complaints over pacing. This is mainly the scripts fault. But another 20, 25 minutes gone and perhaps it could have awoken me from my comatose stare. Avoid it. Eminem's life is hardly told and what is told is repetitious and might I add clichéd with son/mom boyfriend battles. BTW, do you have any aspirin?

Final Rating: [b]D [/b]

What the hell was that review?

I have to respect someone's opinion, if they give reasons why, and I was vibing with it (even though I totally disagreed with everything in it) until it was said:

"Kim Basinger is the other positive of the film. Her very realistic torn mother portrayal is moving and mesmerizing. Her shared scenes with Eminem were great to watch. It was interesting to see how bad Eminem was when having to compete with the likes of her"

Where they watching the same movie? Did they not listen to Basinger go in and out of her accent at least four times? Did they miss the overacting when she screams, "Get the fuck out of my house!" That was one of the funniest parts of the movie. If anything a horrible Basinger made Eminem look that much better.

8 Mile captured the essence of what street life is like. Battles are a part of everyday life, and it is huge for respect. The film captured that brilliantly. The diction, the setting, it was all perfect. I didn't see anything in that movie that I haven't seen in real life in some fashion or another. Coming from a city, one with just about as high a crime rate as Detriot (per amount of people) everything you see in 8 Mile you see on any street corner.

Some people seem more concerned with the, "Precisely. The film took a tedious maximalist approach leaving us with a very short chapter of Eminem's life in Detroit rather than a plot-driven story." sort of mundane overanalyzing a movie about life that people reviewing don't understand. I'm not saying that I do, but that's the point.

And I found that movie really inspiring. For me it was like Rocky, the underacheiver achieves just enough to prove to himself that he can in fact do it. Hell, most of us battle with that problem everyday of our life. For me, watching Eminem rip those people to shreds, it actually made me want to do the same--in a different context of my life.

But I will say, some of the secondary characters--Basinger mostly--could have been compromised for more "action" But perhaps I think that way because I loved the battles so much, I wanted to see 90 minutes of them.

Oh well, I think Hanson did a great job on this film, and Eminem was great.

Well, I loathe rap. So, anything you pointed out and loved I obviously will hate. And maybe Basinger wasn't anything special but with Eminem's constant rock-like blank stare she appeared to be an acting godess.

Anger Management just pissed me off.

Wrong Turn was retarded, but good for MSTing.

LXG was cheezy, but I enjoyed it.

I got dragged into seeing Charlies Angels 2 somehow.. Ugh. Although, the irish dude in it was fucking hardcore. Man. I want to be him.

Bad Boys 2 sucked, as expected, but it was free, so yeah.. Ok.

Erm, I see a lot of bad movies.. It sucks. I kinda get forced into it... Bleh. The only one out of all of those that I actually -wanted- to see was LXG. I'm sure I'm missing some more, but that's all that comes to mind atm..

Was it fun in a light hearted action flick kind of way. I was kind of looking forward to seeing it but if its really "Ugh" I may as well save my time and money.

Pirates was "fun in a light hearted action flick kind of way".

Charlies Angels was not. I mean, I really really really liked the Irish dude, he fucking rocked.. And seeing him beat the shit out of Drew Barrymore, maybe that's worth the $5... But I dunno, it's just sooooo dumb. I caught bits & pieces of the first on TV back in the day.. and they were both, for me, painfully stupid. But then again, that irish guy.. holy crap, what a badass.

Fucking agreed. It was most excellent up to that point. B&T'sEA stands as one of the best Post-Modern Teen Flicks yet made by man.

I rented Wes Craven Presents Don't Look Down. Oy. So much potential, such poor execution. Why do I always forget that "Wes Craven Presents" equals "suckage"?

Because I feel I owe him that. That's why. :::sighs:::

....?

I love the first Bill and Ted. Just the stupid little bits, like when Beethoven's on the keyboards, or Joan of Arc takes over the fitness class in the mall. I mean, the story line was weak, but it's good for it's genre. The worst part of those films was the end of the second, when Bill and Ted have babies and there are those ugly goblin things. The bit with the battleships and twister was cool-but I agree, the story line was a bit feeble. Why am I rambling about this? Gah! I prefer Wayne's World anyway...

Bio-Dome owns you all.

Haha. Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin are dumb fucks.

And the crazy faux-Irish guy is Justin Theorox, also in Mulholland Drive.

"Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin are dumb fucks."

OR totally awesome.

CABIN BOY... I mean come on. Remember this stinking pile of bull dung. This movie was so bad that it is a classic to watch. It is like a running marathon. If you can get through it without killing yourself or falling asleep, consider yourself either very strong willed or mentally retarded.

I mean Jesus christ, that had to be the worst movie ever. It was a cross between "The Odyssey" and "A Flamming Pile of Shit"

Funny we should be talking about Bill and Ted...

My nephew, 12, was rambling through my closet of old VHS movies and found B & T and has been watching them non-stop for the last two days. He likes the second one better...

I sat down and watched a little of it with him and the parts that I found funny way back when I still find funny, but the parts I hated back then are only magnified times 100. Station needs to be edited out of the film, even in reruns, and they need for Rufus.

Oh another shitty movie note...I can't believe I've overlooked the shittest movie ever when all of this discussion has been going on. Dude, Where's My Car was hands down, without a doubt, the dumbest movie I've ever seen. Even though it was only 80 some minutes long, I couldn't stand watching it. People raved about it--I've since sworn them off to the firing squad--so I gave it a chance. Holy pigfucker did that movie ever suck!

Yeah, that was a fucking retarded movie. And I only caught about 10 minutes of it. Was more than enough.

Basically any movie with that guy in it will be sure to suck a fat cock. Sean stephen scott whatever the hell his name is..

Wasn't he in American Pie too? Another crapfest that they just HAD to go and turn into a god damned trilogy... Fuckin all the rage nowadays.. Trilogies galore. Scary Movie 3? Great. Actually... That looks kinda funny.. One was ok, if I remember correctly.. Two looked like ass and I never saw it... But god damn trilogies.. All over the place.

Coming soon! 3 Fast 3 Furious! It doesn't make any fucking sense but we think it's still pretty clever! lolO!l1OL!OLo1l!1

Sean William Scott, and I don't think he's made a one good movie. Same goes for Ashton Kutcher.

And as for the shit trilogies, I don't know why the fuck they're making a Scary Movie 3 and American Pie 3, both previously bombed and with good reason.

Really. Really good reason. Bad bad movies.

Indeedy.. Although I must say, the trailer for SM3 actually looked not so bad.. I'll probably get dragged into seeing it and half-enjoy it.

Wait. Sean William Scott played once close to hilarious role: as the sheep-fucker in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

Cameos don't count, in my opinion.

Elsewise I'd've given him a nod for that, and Old School...

Peppers: YES!!! That's awesome!
Frank: What?
Peppers: You just took one in the jugular, man!
Frank: You're crazy man... you... you're [I]crazy[/I]

Eh, it was just boring to me. It might've been my mood or something, because it wasn't really "bad" I just didn't like it.

Okay, that's fair enough. I really liked this movie, because I am a big Payne fan, and I went to see it opening day and stuff. It was probably my most anticipated movie this year.

Ahaha. That scene had me laughing, and wondering if I was supposed to be...

You were supposed to laugh. No one from Nebraska calls them Native Americans.

Nobody is in Aston Kucher's league. He just sucks THAT bad. I don't think I've ever heard anything funny come out of his mouth.

For me, the same thing goes for Owen Wilson. I hate his failed attempt at acting/comedy so much it makes me want to cut his jugular.

As for American Pies, and Scary Movies. I loved both the AP movies, though I must admit I am hesitant to see the 3rd. The trailer looks stupid--even for a stupid comedy movie--and they didn't get the entire cast back. And for SM2, a lot of that was dumb, but there were some parts that I got a big chuckle out of.

And for what someone said, how they both bombed, I think movie studios really only look at one thing when deciding on a sequel. How much does it cost to make against how much does it gross. I think it's fair to say that neither trilogy, AP or SM, fell short of making back the money they spent to make it. They're no Waterworld...
