I mean the movie is ok, but it's just not my favorite.

Lord of the Rings:Return of the King

Too long, too much melodrama, too many endless scenes of characters staring at each other.

I don't hate it but I think Alfred Hitchcock's vertigo was overrated. It was a disappointment.

Just about all the overhyped movies out there.

Yep.

Such examples include:

-Titanic (that one had to be the most overhyped movie of ALL time...I've never seen so much hype over it and haven't since it came out)
-Spy Kids trilogy
-Harry Potter
-Pirates of the Caribbean
-Scary Movie trilogy
-The rest of the teen movies (I'm not going to name them all - just the ones that came out in the 90's up to now)

etc...

Oh, I see.

Anchorman - - I thought it was mostly ridiculous. It got 3 stars in my local paper. The promos looked really funny. I had no idea it was set in the ugly 70's. It had some funny moments, though.

I don't like Lord of the Rings that much...I mean it's alright, I just don't like it alot.

Lord of the Rings trilogy - sorry, I couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. I really wanted to like these movies

My Big Fat Greek Wedding- this movie was WAY overhyped. Everyone said how funny it was, including my grandma, but then when I finally saw it I didn't think it was funny! It was way to CLEAN for me. Through the whole movie I was just waiting for SOMEONE to cuss or to be some violence. It was good for my grandma cuz she's very conservative, but I NEED something bad in the movie. This movie was way to clean and perfect for me.

I had to watch that my senior year for Indian Studies. It was ehhhhh....not my fave, but it wasn't so bad. Not something I'd want to see again. :barf:

Another one was the remake of "Cheaper By the Dozen".

Okay, kids...say it with me.

THAT. MOVIE. REALLY. SUCKED!

I rented it and I watched the first 20 minutes before I got really disgusted with it, took it out and never finished that movie. IT WAS HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!! It's another reason why you should never, Never, NEVER remake classic movies. :mad:

It sucked ? Why ?

I love that movie.

Really...I do

Spider-Man

Any remakes of old movies. I just hate when they take a good film and replace it with "new" actors (who normally aren't as good as the originals) and add today style comedy into it (which usually is inappropriate for the type of movie). Most of the time the originals are MUCH better than the remakes.

One word:

TITANIC

Seriously, the writing in that movie sank before the ship did.

There are alot of remakes that do really well & surpass the original though, isn't there?

not in my opinion. the remake of the classic "Cheaper by the Dozen" was much lower in quality than the original. Ugh, they even changed the character's names. They could have at least kept the original names. Also, can Steve Martin really compare to the star of the classic "Cheaper By the Dozen", Clifton Webb? I don't think so.

They were once going to remake "Strangers on a Train". Thank god they didn't. Who nowadays could surpass Farley Granger (Guy Haines) and Robert Walker (Bruno Antony) in the roles they played on that movie. Nobody.

But I respect your opinion.:)

Really...I do

1 - It is the unwritten rule that you should NEVER NEVER remake a movie that was a classic. THey will ALWAYS bomb. Same goes for sequels. It's VERY rare that they'll do well. The only movies with sequels I can think of that did well (besides the new movies that are out there now) were the Back to the Future series and Look Who's Talking series. 2002 and 2003 were full of nothing but sequels! *sigh* :rolleyes:

2 - I thought the choices for the actors and actresses for this movie REALLY sucked. Bonnie Hunt and Steve Martin are great...but PLEASE! Not in this movie!

3 - Horrible, horrible, horrible! If I wanted to observe screaming kids destroy things, I could look no farther than the little cousins on my dad's side.

Never liked "Shrek."

I think that it is one of the most overrated movies of all time.

I like Shrek 1, but everyone has their personal opinions. I happened to think Shrek 2 was very overrated.

It's good people can think for themselves that "this movie sucked even if it grossed $200 million" or "I don't care what everyone says, I liked this movie" instead of liking a movie just because everybody else did.

I liked both Shrek movies but I thought the first one was better. the second one received way more credit than the first but was slightly lower in quality.

You Got Served....all I heard after that movie was "YOU GOT SERVED SUCKA!":rolleyes:

It was remade...well, kinda.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding
The LOTR: Return of the King (too many endings!!, TTT was much better)
but worst of all.... Titanic. And to make it worse -- I cant stand Celen Dion (i dont care how you spell her name).... sang the song.

Originally posted by CliffClavin

Overblown Mike Meyers.

Too many self congratulatory puns at fairy tales that aren't even that clever.

Just not very funny.

Monster's Inc. was a much better movie- and I never thought I could say that with Billy Crystal being as big a ham as Mike Myers.

I personally think it's good people out there can admit "I don't like Spiderman" or "I don't like Lord Of The Rings". A lot of people seem to go with the crowd and think because a movie won an Oscar or because it made $200, 300, 400 million that automatically it's a great movie.

I don't get why people will say "What the hell is wrong with you because you didn't like Spiderman or LOTR?"... maybe because it's a free country and if someone wants to think for themselves that maybe Spiderman wasn't as good as people claim... they should be able to. Same with LOTR, I am sick to death about hearing how they're the greatest movies ever made. It's good to form your own opinion instead of letting the crowd form it for you

Titanic
LOTR (all of them)
Kill Bill 1&2

is it me or are todays teen movies just too "family friendly". 5 years ago, "teen movies" were Final Destination, Scream, American Pie and other rated R films that were popular with people outside of the teen demographic. I know 30 year olds who enjoyed those movies. At 24, I cannot find anything enjoyable about Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen or Lizzie McGuire Movie or anything like that. Todays teens are being forcefed stuff that is below them and the teen movies of today just don't have the widespread appeal that teen movies of the 80's and 90's had.

I don't agree completely... just that today's teen movies just don't have "it" like movies like The Breakfast Club and Fast Times had in the 80's, or Dazed And Confused and Clueless had in the early/mid 90's or Scream and American Pie had in the late 90's. Right not it's all way too Disneyfied.

A great teen movie (and there have been plenty) is able to grab in people outside of the teen demographic as well; American Pie is a great example, the movie was made for a 16-19 audience, but I knew people who were in their late 20's and early 30's at the time who even went to see it and loved it. It was a teen movie that was funny and "grown up" enough that people 10 years older than the characters could still enjoy. The teen movies out right now are way too "Full House" for anyone over a certain non-smoking, non-drinking (dare I say non-driving?) age to enjoy. And it's kinda sad that todays teen movies are that prudish. It's not because it's "clean", but because these teen movies are just too watered down and kid-oriented to even consider having the longlasting appeal teen movies of the past like Fast Times At Ridgemont High or Ferris Bueller's Day Off have had.

Chicago.
Hated it. I loved Moulin Rouge, so you'd think I'd like this one, but, no.
I just have a personal vendetta against that movie.

I didn't bother seeing the remake of "Cheaper By the Dozen for that very reason. It didn't even look like it had anything in common with the original except for the title, and I'm such a fan of the original with Clifton Webb and Jeanne Crain. Seemed just disrespectful to keep punching out cheap remakes on classics.

And, what the heck, remake "Strangers on a Train"?????!!!! :eek: :eek: That was Robert Walker's performance of a lifetime, and one of his very last. :( He died far too young :(

Anyways, didn't Psycho teach us once and for all that no one should try to remake Hitchcock? ;)

the Lizzie McGuire movie and Shrek 2, both were horrific

the worst movie in the world: New YORK Minute

omg i wanted to see this so bad and then i saw it it was terrible

Win A Date With Tad Hamiliton was so stupid too, i turned it off after 10 minutes

I haven't seen the Cheaper by the Dozen remake, so I shouldn't make any judgements but I just don't see how it could even begin to compare to the original. There's one they should've left alone. And I agree.. no matter how funny or good Steve Martin is as an actor, you can't beat Clifton Webb. Nor can you beat the rest of the cast.

Strangers on a Train is a favorite of mine, has been for as long as I can remember. Thank goodness they've left it alone. Robert Walker - wow! The man gave me the creeps and was fantastic, as was Farley Granger. There's something else we agree on. :lol: :)

New York Minute was just awful.

My daughters wanted to see it so badly so I decided to join them. Sitting through the 2 hours of it was just torture.

The plot was ridiculous - they kept running into the same 2 guys in a city of over 8 million people. Plus the dance scene in the beauty shop was just stupid.

Plus, the two of them together couldn't have weighed more than 170 pounds. It was frightening.

Of course, my kids liked it and we are now the poud owners of the DVD!

I think my pick for one of the worst movies ever is Nothing But Trouble starring Demi Moore, Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase and John Candy.

Simply horrendous.

I couldn't believe that some studio head gave the green light to this baloney.

Dan Aykroyd's nose resembled a penis as I recall. The humor in it was so low - it made me cringe.:eek:
