Wow. Hot to Trot.

And I thought the Specialist was bad.

It's bastards like YOU that make the jobs of pimply-faced goons like ME into soul-deadening experiences with your hellish demands of returned money when you should damn well know the policy on such things! Curse you all. You suffered through a hell of your own making and you try to pull my kind in with you? A pox on you.

Ahem.

*cough*

I was too.

The funny thing is, though, I distinctly remember reading a relatively positive review on CHUD that got my hopes up.

Well how else was he going to do his signature 'Psycho Crusher'?

I've got some real winners here....

Hideaway - starring Jeff Goldblom and Alicia Silverstone in a screenplay by Andrew Kevin Walker of a Dean Koontz book.

Stephen King's Graveyard Shift - should have been called Graveyard Shit.

Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever - I actually had some hopes for this one. They were crushed.

Godzilla - Emmerich's version made me fall asleep in the theatre. First time ever.

Cabin Fever - not horror, not a comedy, not a movie. Complete shit and a waste of my time.

Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. First two movies were GOLD. Third movie was fool's gold. Jackson dropped the ball on this one. It was so melodramatic. The cues were so obvious in the movie. Cry here, be sad here, ball your eyes out here.

Corky Romano.

I felt so violated when it was finally over.

Okay, I didn't see this in a theatre and I didn't see it on video and I refuse to watch it in any format (for I truly dislike Al Pachino) but will anyone own up to watching S1m0ne in the theatre?
Even better will anyone own up to saying it wasn't a waste of money?

Do you only know of Pacino through Simone or Gigli? Funny how you truly dislike him but I (and many others) consider him to be one the greatest actors of all time.

Don't you mean " one of the greatest overactors' of all time"?

Pacino is one of the greats of our time. People often think of stuff like SCARFACE or SCENT OF WOMAN and they think of him going over the top but I don't think he goes in that direction any more than a lot of actors. In DONNIE BRASCO and INSOMNIA he is fairly restraint. Even in movies like HEAT or CARLITO'S WAY he has his moments of yelling but they are still realistic characters that he is portraying.

Re: Pacino

BECAUSE SHE'S GOT A GRRRRRRREEEEEEAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTT AAAASSSSS!!!!!!

I saw Megaforce in the theater, but that don't count, cuz I was like seven, and thought it was the shit.

Actually (as my post stated) I havn't seen S1m0ne, nor have I seen Gigli. I just really don't like Al Pachino. Heat is the only movie worth tolerating him (Mann keeps him relatively subdued), although I must confess I've yet to see the Godfather films. But most of the films I've seen him in have those notoriously overblown Pachino moments that make it hard to really like him.

Although I didn't care for him in Heat, I did like him in The Recruit.

More restrained Pacino: THE INSIDER
post #117 of 128
Okay, embarrassment and traumatic. When I was a teenager, I paid to see Tony Danza's opus She's Out Of Control. I've never lived that one done.

But thinking about that one, it reminded me of the traumatic. I was a wee lad of about five. In the early part of 1980, I think, my mom took me and my brother to see Star Wars in the theater, one of the many rereleases leading up to Empire. I was so excited, because I hadn't seen it for probably two years, upon it's initial release. Of course, the showing was sold out. We couldn't go see a later showing, due to time constraints. So instead of just going home, which would have been preferred, she bought tickets to Going Ape, that other Tony Danza masterpiece. I was so pissed. Even stopping on the way home and being able to buy a new Star Wars action figure was not enough compensation. What a trade off, Star Wars for the Danza and the Devito, and a shitload of apes.

Hold me closer, Tony Danza

Inna Danny Devito baby

I bought two tickets to a Nora Ephron film once.

Hopefully, Nicholas Pileggi took the $$$ and bought a nice cigar or something.

I'll see this thread and raise you "Eight Crazy Nights", the animated Adam Sandler movie. The sad part is, I actually thought it'd be funny, and I convinced a group of friends to go see it with me.

That night was one of very few times I've ever been afraid of serious physical harm from good friends.
post #120 of 128
Can't believe I failed to mention these three:

Blues Brothers 2000: I know it was already bad enough to make a 20 years later sequel without Belushi but good lord, even my teenage self thought this was crap.

Hope Floats: Awful cliched sapfest. However I did get to see it with my family friend's hot duaghters.

The Avengers: Saw this opening night August '98. Thought it would be cool. I mean you've got Ralph Fiennes, Uma Thurman and Sean Connery together. To quote Wesley Willis: This film really sucked a wooly mammoth's dick with miracle whip.

Driven. I went to see it with two of my friends. They wanted to see some other flick (can't remember, it couldn't have been worse than Driven) but I insisted on watching Renny Harlin's masterpiece instead. After the film another one of them was pretty pissed off. It was his first free weekend from the military and he said I completely ruined it. Can't blame him.
