Plus, The Goonies R Good Enough.....
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Anything with Meg Ryan in it is grounds for being immediately elsewhere. Also anything with a brave Southern woman facing the trial of fate and the elements while she jus' keeps workin' on to feed the chil'ren 'n git the crop in, God save us.
Lord, I could feel the bile rising just typing that. I need to see something where people blow things up. Or maybe the original In Laws, to see if the Serpentine scene is still asthma-inducingly funny.
edit: Or the dance scenes from The Mask

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
my Most Hated Movie may be The Thin Red Line.
Ack. A good 45 minutes could have been trimmed from that movie just by cutting down the scenes where Jim Caviezel stares into the distance with his intense eyefucky gaze.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
It is one of the few movies where I have actually thought, "I want those X hours of my life back." The other movie that comes to mind is Troy. I don't remember whether I wanted my time back, but I definitely felt like asking for my money back.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'd like 40 minutes of Costner closeups back from Wyatt Earp. Other than that, everyone else in it was stellar, particularly Dennis Quaid. He's no huckleberry, but damn, that was a fine performance.
Doc's just a great role.

I love Last Action Hero ! Granted, I have not seen it since I was twelve, but still.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Used to love Dead Poets, now the almost-end just pisses me off. Suicide? That was the only way out? How melodramatic. Run away and join the circus, f***wad.
Bwah!! I didn't feel tha way until I saw DPS again about a year ago.

I love Moulin Rouge with a huge, rhinestone-covered, ruffly love. It's so BIG AND BOMBASTIC! And very pretty!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
A full 72.3% of the awful was Gwyneth Paltrow, though.
It's so much more watchable if you view it in light of the review that posited her reporter character was a saboteur trying to undermine the heroes' efforts at every turn.
I don't know if I can list Out Cold as my low water mark for movies or not, as I only watched it until the opening credits started and then walked out. But consider that I've watched Uwe Boll movies, Daredevil, and Stigmata all the way to the end and that was the movie that made me throw up my hands and cry uncle...
