To think this is the worse film I have EVER seen?

[chegirl]

I think I am still in mild shock.

Had a bit of time to kill yesterday afternoon so thought I'd watch a bit of telly. Blues Brothers 2000 was on. Loved the original and whilst I didnt think this would match it, it did have an impressive cast so thought I would give it a go.

Have you SEEN it It was so bad it sort of mesmerised me. It was like it was started without a script or plot line and they sort of chucked things at it as they went along.

At one point a voodoo queen turned them all into green zombies so they would play crappy pop/jazz fusion. There were also animated skeleton cowboys riding on skeleton cows, a car driving under water for at least a mile (not a special car, just a car), a black policeman levatating through the roof of a revival meeting and turning into the 3rd blues brother on his way down, a car pile up that went on for about 5 minutes long after anyone driving behind the first few cars would have realised something was up and Russian gangsters who turned into rats.

Twas mad. How the hell did they get James Brown and Eric Clapton involved in that?

John Goodman was in it. I am wondering if he produced it. I think he has a history of these vanity projects.

Anyone got it on DVD? I think I need to see it one more time.

So am I right or is there a worse film?

mmm, yes, coming back to me now. Moody supportive man pushed away by strong female lead. Ditto Michael Madsen in Thelma & Louise

Ali was a dire three hours of my life.
I fell asleep four times during the original Lord of the Rings - didn't bother with the sequels.

Y'see, ShineOn, you keep offering these little glimmers of hope that you are not beyond redemption. Cement Garden is a brilliant film. If you can perceive that, why can't you see how good Fight Club or Groundhog Day is?

European Vacation - OK, I suppose.

If you have watched Fight Club twice, fair enough, you're entitled to your opinion. But if you've only seen it once, will you give it just one more try, as a favour to me?

Hmm, the only thing I have ever walked out of was Reservoir Dogs. It wasn't that I am a wuss who doesn't like blood, it was the sheer boredom of watching blokes in suits shout 'FUCK' at each other for about 3 hours - as I said at the time, if I want that I can go and hang out on the ad department floor (at my then-job).
I also despised Cape Fear, the De Niro remake: absolute toss aimed at wankers who think that horror films are beneath them and so are easily scared by really creaking old horror cliches.
SLiding Doors! FFS what a waste of an intersting idea - the number of things you could have done with the basic concept of divergent lives and all they did with it was ponce about pushing heteromonogamy...

The worst film I ever saw was Battlefield Earth. Apparently based on Scientology beliefs that aliens visited earth and yadda yadda yadda. Any film with John Travolta with piggytail moustace and nose plugs has got to be pretty high on the Worst Film Ever index.

A.I. gets an honorable mention for crapness as well.

The only film I have ever walked out of was Natural Born Killers. What a pile of self indulgent rubbish that was. I really enjoyed Fight Club and No Country for Old Men is a classic.

Worst film I ever saw at the cinema was The Spice Girls Movie (in my defence had to take 8 yr old DN who also hated it) closely followed by a special screening (read pay an extra £5 to watch it at midnight) of The Blair Witch Project.

Worst DVD was The Happening - NOTHING BLOODY HAPPENED

A.I, definitely. I went to see it at the cinema, left after 45 mins. Tried again when it was out to rent, only made it to 30

Mamma Mia - total tosh.

The lady next to me in the cinema said she was disgusted with Pierce Brosnan and he had ruined James Bond for her forever! [sad}

Spider Man - all of them.
Troy
Matrix
and A.I of course.

Over-hyped drivel the lot of them.

I loved Mamma Mia-a real 'feel good' movie-I wish they would make more like it.

Has anyone seen House on Haunted Hill?
It's dreadful, but worth watch for the special effects when the cat goes crazy and attacks someone.
(I think they must have taken three goes for the guy throwing the toy cat to get it in the right direction )

Notting Hill for me.

House on haunted hill is really awful. What is worse is that i actually went to cinema to
see it.

I have yet to see a film as bad as Days of Thunder.

The Holiday: boak
Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette: bloody sacrilege
The Beach: such a good book, such a shiiiiit film

Have to agree with ZacharyQuack, Battlefield Earth is by far the worst film I have ever seen by a mile. It is so dire because it isn't even 'funny' in the way many bad films are, it is just unrelentingly awful in every possible way imaginable. I have to be honest and say I really only managed to watch about half though.

Close second is Star Trek the movie (1st one). Quite enjoyed some of the later ones and I am generally a sci fi fan (for instance I agree that Pitch Black isn't a great film but I quite enjoyed bits of it) so these films have to be terrible for me to get no enjoyment whatsoever out of them.

Lords of Flatbush: early John Travolta film. Truly diabolical.
Our family also detested 2001 Space Odyssey, I have gritted my teeth to sit thru it as an adult in a completely wasted effort to understand why it's so popular.
I have never heard of half the modern films mentioned on here.

I hate 'a walk in the clouds'. I really really hate it so WHY do I always manage to see the last bloody ten minutes EVERY time it is on some Godforsaken channel at 5am?? Is it trying to tell me something?

I really enjoyed Apollo 13 - against all my expectations as I expected to hate it really.

I also LOVED Resevoir Dogs and have no idea how somebody could find it boring (violent and difficult to watch maybe but not boring).

I've just remebered another one I HATED "Taxi Driver'

I have walked out of 3 films in my entire life (all 44 yrs of it to date) and those were the two I already mentioned (Battlefield Earth and Star Trek the Movie) and Taxi Driver, so i suppose those are my 3 worst ever so far.

Billy Elliot and Lost in Translation have to be among the most overhyped, disappointing, self-satisfied films ever made. Particularly loathe Billy Elliot.

I have only watched ten minutes of Notting Hill (or it could have been Love Actually - whatever was on the telly a few weeks ago) and it made me want to slash my wrists.

Classic film I have hated: Jules et Jim [boak].

I see your Blues Brothers 2000 and I raise you .... Thomas and the Magic Railroad!

Thomas and the Magic Railroad - what was Alex Baldwin THINKING!? And I blame this film for ds's Thomas fixation.....

What about the dreadful movie with Madonna and Warren Beaty? (can't remember the name of it....)

The Village

Saving Private Ryan (walked out once the battle recreation at the beginning finished, and the film just morphed into soppy sentimentality)

Love Actually
