Thread's not as interesting without the why

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

The Ladykillers. I love Tom Hanks as an actor but this movie was just horrendous. Terrible acting and ridiculous death scenes. Also for a comedy it wasn't really funny at all.

Son of a bitch you guys

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

The Room. omfgso****ingbad.

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

ROFL I love the room solely for its brutally horrible acting. Could watch it all day!

The Matrix: Revolutions:

The first Matrix is one of my favorite movies of all time, but the third movie in the franchise is a massive bomb and I refuse to ever watch it again. To me, it's a slap in the face from the Wachowski Brothers. They went from what worked (awesome philosophical questions + technological underpinnings) to lame cop-outs (religious non-explanations and plot-dodging).

Many HUGE questions were left hanging in the end. What, exactly, is Mobil Ave? How was Neo able to stop the Sentinels despite being outside of the Matrix? How in the blue hell did Cipher sneak into the Matrix without an operator to jack him in? These aren't just nitpicky fanboy questions... they're massive, plot-raping conundrums that seriously weaken the narrative.

Neo stopping the sentinels was a huge plot twist. There were so many ways it could have been resolved. The answer to the riddle, as stated by the Oracle, was basically "The One has powers outside the Matrix." Not even joking. The answer to the riddle was "Because he's the One." Total game-breaker. I was furious at how lazy that resolution was because it weakens the entire CONCEPT of the Matrix in the first place. So, what, is this no longer about the real world being dominated by robots and simulations anymore? Are we invoking supernatural influence? Is this a Matrix within a Matrix? None of it's answered. Characters are wasted and explanations are withheld. Emotional scenes fell flat. I remember everyone laughing during Trinity's death scene because it was so poorly acted and so cheesy. I wanted more elaboration on the backstory. There were many vague quotes thrown around hinting at histories that were never fleshed out (why is Seraph likened to Judas? What happened in the past between Seraph and Smith?).

And wtf was up with that final battle? It felt like a DBZ ripoff. I wanted intense martial arts, not CGI-riddled superhuman city-blasting. So much potential down the drain.

All in all, it was a shitty ending to a great buildup. The next time I would feel similar disappointment wouldn't come until the LOST finale, but that's another story.

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

Loved the first Matrix movie.
The second Matrix movie was so bad there was no possible way they could have redeemed it so I never bothered to watch the third (and I've only ever heard it's worse than the second).

Though I'd say both the second and third (though I haven't seen it) Matrix movies would not be "worst movie of all time", bad as they are.

The worst movie is probably some straight-to-video sequel of some movie and/or one of those "BlahBlah Movie" movies (where it actually has "Movie" in the name of the movie). They try to be comedy and they just fail hard.

Real specific!!!

I'll edit this post when I can pinpoint one above all. There are many in mind...

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

eragon. had room to be decent but somehow, it got ****ed up into a shitty movie that didn't follow the book or even have a structured storyline.

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

The Man in the Iron Mask. The storyline was stupid, the plot was slow as hell, I couldn't care less about the subject matter.

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

Hostel. Terrible acting, piss-poor plot, and completely ridiculous events. Sorry to burst your bubble, but that doesn't happen when you cut someone's eye out. I know there's supposed to be the factor of "suspension of disbelief", but it was completely gone the minute the main character stepped onto the screen.

Re: Least favorite movie of all time?

Burn After Reading.

By the end of that movie I was asking myself what I just watched. It made no sense at all; the plot was just all over the place.
