Actually I hate the directors cut also. The original is 10x better.

Well, it ruined it enough for me that I wouldn't want to hunt down the original.

Not like Freddie Got Fingered, which is spectacularly bad. Of course, that's what you'd expect from the worst movie ever.

I will agree with the Transporters being entertaining garbage. Weak plot/acting/etc, but I had fun watching it.

My least favorite movie of all time has to be Star Wars Episode One. I had such high expectations and was looking forward to that movie so much and it was a giant steaming pile of dog poo.

All glory to the hypnotoad.

Doesn't matter if there are two or more. The movie is already turd as soon as there is one Gyllenhaal in it.

(This rule of Gyllenhaal applies also to any members of the myriad of talentless hacks that comprise the aptly named Gyllenhaal society)

I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

Brokeback Mountain (Jake Gyllenhall) wasn't a bad movie.
Casa de los babys (Maggie Gyllenhall) wasn't a bad movie either.

I have yet to see Donnie Darko though.

As for Bruckheimer, I like both Con Air and Black Hawk Down.

The only reason I like having BET is that they play In Living Color reruns (Which I loved when FX carried them).

Fight Club was too predictable. My mom figured it out like a half hour into the flick. Office Space, cmon, it's like who wrote this crap. It's like a period piece in the late 90s, lameo!

Both of them, if I'm not mistaken, kind of sucked at the box office, but later became cult classics. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Mean girls is one of the 2 movies I shut off 1 hour into it because I couldn't take it anymore.

Meet the parents was the other.

Totally, it was a huge Matrix/Tron wannabe.

It was 10x worse than I could have imagined.

Space Truckers was BAD. But does it count as a movie? I mean how long did it try to run in theaters? Troll 2 was around here for several weeks-I don't think Space Truckers was open for a whole week...

Oh! I think I saw that on TV sometime. Is that the one with the robots that come out in increasing numbers and the one robot/man 'starts up' his penis with a pull cord?

Don't get me wrong, as kids me and my sister liked that movie, if I watched it now sober it would be warped.

Worst line in the movie by the human girl: "Could there be love for me in the animal kingdom?"

Boogeyman and Exorcist II: The Heretic. A redeeming feature of the latter is its unintended comedic value. But Boogeyman was just bad.

[Off topic, but as for movies about exorcisms, "The Exorcism of Emily Rose" is excellent]

I know a few people who think it is so funny they could puke and others that think it is so bad they could puke.

Either way puke in involved.
