To think this is a rubbish film (warning: popular 80s movie slating!)

I have a confession that I'd never utter IRL. It has taken a lot of bravery for me to do this and I may well be excommunicated from MN:

I hate The Breakfast Club. Angsty teens get detention. Some snog at the end. That's it. Boring!! First time I saw it i was waiting for 'the good bit'. It never came.

AIBU? What popular film can you not stand?

Take that back!

YABVVVVU!

I hate 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit'.

I can't stand watching Pierce brosnan as James Bond.

Also can't stand George Clooney as batman

I hate Dirty Dancing.

Greydog · 31/12/2014 17:47

The Talented Mr Ripley. No - he wasn't. Shit film and not a single character in it that I cared about

Whocansay · 31/12/2014 17:47

Highlander. What a load of old balls that was.

Smokeyrobinson · 31/12/2014 17:47

I detest 'Dirty Dancing'!! This happens to be my DDs fave film - she thinks I'm odd!

I hate Lost In Translation, anything with hobbits, Star Wars and War Horse.

I think the Rambo films are piss poor (but I think most people think that too).

Kelly1814 · 31/12/2014 17:49

With you. Breakfast club is wank.

Whocansay · 31/12/2014 17:50

Am shocked at the 'Dirty Dancing' haters!
I'm a sucker for a bit of cheese though.

I love that film. I wish I were a member of the brat pack.

expatinscotland · 31/12/2014 17:51

Dirty Dancing is wank.

catslave · 31/12/2014 17:51

Lost in Translation is creepy and crap. Same for Dirty Dancing - hideous film.

catslave · 31/12/2014 17:52

I do like a bit of Breakfast Club though. Sorry.

Gothgirl78 · 31/12/2014 17:54

I've never seen dirty dancing. Anything by Tom hanks is wank and I've never seen titanic either !

Bogeyface · 31/12/2014 17:55

I loved this film!

Then it was on TV a couple of months ago and my god it was dire!

It is what it is, a film about angsty teens aimed at angsty teens so they can feel justified in hating their parents!

What I want to know is, did Molly Ringwald give Judd Nelson the cold shoulder when they are back in normal school or would she go all edgy and be the prom queen shagging the bad boy? I hope the latter but I suspect it would be the former!

Marylou2 · 31/12/2014 17:55

Noooooo!! Don't say that OP. I'm still in love with Judd Nelson and I'm 46. Whatever happened to him?

Mabelface · 31/12/2014 17:56

I agree! Also hated Ghost and Dirty Dancing as Patrick Swayze made my skin crawl. I'm proud that I've never seen Titanic and I've not seen Frozen either.

Bogeyface · 31/12/2014 17:57

YY to Highlander, saw that for the first time on TV recently, and it was awful! Sean Connery was particularly dreadful.

And I must confess that although I loved DD, I dont love it now. I think I was just the perfect age for the Brat Pack/Dirty Dancing/Ferris Bueller films, so when I see them now all I see is how awful and cringey I must have been as a teen!

londonrach · 31/12/2014 17:57

Take it Back (puts fingers in ears)...

expatinscotland · 31/12/2014 17:58

Ghost was arse, too.
