Explain why a movie sucked/rocked.

[Slacker]

The idea of this topic is for people to post about movies they didn't like for whatever reason, and for other people to essentially flame them about it.

EXAMPLE: I hated Easy Rider. It was long, slow, and uneventful, and the ending felt like a copout so that the writer<s> wouldn't have to think of an actual ending.

So yeah, let's see if this works or not.

A collection of outrageous interviews loosely connected with bad slapstick scenes, "Borat" could have been an HBO series named "Da Ali G Show Season 3," had it not been because the producers decided to cash in big and make a movie out it.

I think you missed the point :|

You mean, the part in which Borat baits people into revealing character flaws, or the part in which he makes fun of American culture?

No, I meant the point of the topic.

Yes, the producers cashed in big by droping two characters and cancelling the show. HBO won't see a dime of revenue.

Vanilla Sky owned because of:

1.) Penelope Cruz.
2.) the WTF factor.

Vanilla Skies sucked because it was "open your eyes" in English, and even Penelope Cruz (who was in both) couldnt save it.

The wtf factor stands for "why the **** did they make the same film again , only this time in English"

 

[Que-Ever]

Kill Bill sucked because... well, it sucked.

I still want to watch the original.

The Thing rocked because it mixed paranoia, terror, and gory alien on human action into a mindraping f*ckfest of horror.

The 1998 Godzilla film sucked asshole because a.) it had a big gay iguana ****ing the Empire State Building b.) it may have Jean Reno, but the movie flatout sucked radioactive lizard dick. c.) why the f*ck should I explain?

Agreed.

Garden State rocks because of the story, the whole surreal feel of the movie, and the chemistry between Zach and Natalie is just really nice.

<3 it.

The Transporter rocked because you were not supposed to see it for the story. Idiots like to tell you it was the worst movie on the planet because the story was basically non-existent. WELL DUH. You went to see it in the theater because of the scene in the trailer where he kicks the door down, and you view it through the peephole. You didn't see it for nuanced performances, and dramatic lighting/camera angles. You went to see it for the killing and the fighting. And the killing and the fighting are what makes it so grand.


Casino Royale sucked because we were so harshly and cruelly let down as an audience (IF you were expecting what the trailers and reviews promised.) It would have been about as good as Goldeneye, but I was expecting light years more. Bond Begins! See James before he was Bond! Nice taglines, assholes. Sure, he didn't have as much gadgetry, he wasn't quite as much of a ladies man... but um... where the **** were we when he wasn't a 00? Oh right, two minutes of the beginning of the movie, which were two very face punching minutes, I might add, and then it was over. We saw Bond go from A... to A. Bad ass in the beginning, bad ass at the end. No character development, no focus on training, basically no change at all from the Brosnan movies except slightly AND I MEAN F-CKING SLIGHTLY better dialogue, not as much technology, and uh, that's it. What a waste of 9 dollars. I hate bond movies anyway, so I think I'd be tuned in to a major change.
