Must.destroy.world...too much rolling many-sided diceeeee....
Wait,was this the same movie that had Tom Hanks in it?in the one I remember Tom Hanks loses all touch with reality,begins to belive he is a monk (or some such character),ends up stabing some guys that try to mug him (because he thinks they are orks),and ends up totaly nuts.
I remember this movie from the early 80's,but don't recall if it was "mazes and Monsters".

Naked Lunch.
It has the guy that played Robocop. and it will leave you feeling like you were raped in prison, but the only inmate in there with you, is this movie

Oh come on, Waterworld has some cool moments. It is certainly not the worst movie ever, even if you're not into Post-Apocalypse stuff - although I admit Waterworld isn't that great either. The Postman, on the other hand, I thought was quite good.
And the Clone Army in the Star Wars prequels: They all spoke with the same accent because that's the accent that Jango Fett, the original cloned specimen had, and he taught and trained them. They also had his exact same voice box. Of course they would all sound like him.
I loathed Phantom Menace,between Jarjar and the little kid that played Anikin it made my skin crawl,the other 2 wern't that bad,not great,but watchable.
Of course the character of Anikin was played so damn angsty I half expected him to start cutting himself with his lightsaber.

Yes, that is indeedy the one.
I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

I actually watched this with my Grandmother back in the day and she criticized the hell out of it. I thought she was funny and only played the game more.

I'm sorry my friend I can't agree with you. It had a Typewriter that turned into a bug. You really can't beat that. Plus it had Officer Murphy.

Don't forget it is also directed by David Cronenberg and yeah, I agree. Naked Lunch was weird as all hell but not 'bad' per se. And I like weird. It is also NOT really an adaptation of the book.
Besides, who doesn't like the idea of two buddies hanging out in a bar...

1: Meet the Spartans: I got bored of it within the first few minutes
2: The International: You would only enjoy this if you are a middle age businessman with no taste in movies, no offence intended for anyone who enjoyed it. (I think some people agree with this as I got an A* in English for writing a very negative review about this film)
3: The Day The Earth Stood Still: Not so much as a bad film, but certain aspects of it were just dull, especially the ending

I should smite thee for saying this. That is quite possibly one of the best movies ever...

It wasn't that funny but I am a pretty big fan of Jim Carrey in general, and I actually wished he would play a serious villain for once.
"Gotta love bein' bad!"
And actually if you want to see a movie with him thats serious you should see "number 23" i think its called. Its not a comedy at all and hes sort of a villian. Its also a good move :O
As for a horrid movie im surprised no one has mentioned dragonball: evolution
I knew it was going to bad. Infact i went to see it in theaters just to see how bad it was...
Listen you, not only was mila 'leelodallasmultipass' jovovich in that, the second one had that other insanely hot looking lass playing Jill Valentine.
That other insanely hot looking lass is Sienna Guillory, who was also Helen of Troy in one of the movies about Troy and/or Helen. She while very hot is also partly responsible for the movie trying to ruin the character of Jill Valentine, my favorite female game character, and for trying to ruin RE.
That aside, it was not as bad a the Third movie which I most defiantly did not pay good money to see >.>
But yes, just watching the movie for Mila and Sienna is acceptable.

Agreed,I would watch a movie if all it consisted of was Mila Jovovich reading the phone book,but let's not forget,Resident Evil 2 had zombies,and for me any film with zombies is worth a look...hell,I've watched "Children shouldn't play with dead things" six times,and that movie is just awful.

QFT, twice!!! Zombies and Milla automatically jumps that movie to a 6 and I hated that flick but will watch it every time its on Cable just cause its got zombies, Milla and the horrible acting of Sienna Guillory as Jill!
Watchmen. This was crap, if it wasn't trying to be so damn cool, it would've been funny, but between wannabe psycotics, giant smiley faces in the middle of volcanoes, Roarshack tests made out of pools of blood,sex deprived glowing blue people, and flaming orgasms of death, the resulting stench of overdramatization left me gagging and on the floor begging for mercy.
Anotherr candidate is Alexander. This movie is utter crap and looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggggggggggggggg.
yes it had 1 count it: 1 good battle scene (that one with the elephants does not count, it was just a very long slomo sequence) but the rest was a bunch of guys in bronze speedos trying to be manly.
so there's my two cents

Not an attack but a question, did you read the Graphic Novel?
