Well, some people would certainly be somewhat curious, wouldn't they? Some people might even go over and see what it was all about, and maybe some would even stick around to see what else this guy had to say. They didn't idolize him because he beat the crap out of himself, they idolized him because he was espousing a philosophy that seemed to fit with where they were in their life.



I understand it's the philosophy they follow. But, unless I misremember, the guys who came up after the "fight" didn't ask for or listen to a philosophical speech, they asked, "Can we be next?" Next what? Next to kick the stuffing out of yourselves? Knock yourselves out. Literally.

But like I said, I enjoyed it aside from that. So maybe I should give it a second chance, see if the plot hole is really as big as I remember.

How could I have forgotten Bram Stoker's Dracula on my list? Yeesh. I must have blocked it out for sanity's sake.

And while I'm thinking of Copollas, anything with Nic Cage pretty much sucks the root, too. Thank God his Superman movie died before it was released. What genius said, "You know who would make a great Superman? Nic Cage. Yeah. Undershot chin, receding hairline, scrawny body, painful-looking smile, who could look at him and not think Superman?"

Showgirls didn't quite make the list, because it's fun to watch with a group of friends. Like Kwicko said, it's MST3K material. Especially if one of your friends is so obsessive, he knows the exact places to pause the movie to get panty-free upskirt shots of the leading lady...I've always wondered why she didn't wear a thong, or something....

I don't know if I can think of 10, but here goes:

- Catwoman - My former best friend dragged me to see this opening weekend because she had a thing for Halle Berry. It was a NIGHTMARE

- Alexander - The same former friend also dragged me to see this piece of goushi during her Angelina Jolie phase. Are you seeing why we aren't friends anymore?

- Mr. & Mrs. Smith - Maybe not one of the worst films of all time, but SO overrated!

- Bewitched - Just.Freaking.Horrible.

- Elektra - I noticed a lot of people listed Daredevil, but not Elektra. Perhaps it's because those who say DD were smart enough not to put themselve through the hell that this movie was. I apparently, am not that bright, lol.

- The Pacifier - Generally I can see the entertainment value in a Vin Diesal movie. Explosion, fighting, Vin - a shirt, but this was just mind numbingly stupid, even for a Vin flick.

- The Ring Two - Pointless and not scary. They should have left well enough alone.

- Halloweens III, VI, Reserection - Michael Myers wasn't even in III, it's the hundan of the series, VI makes absolutly know sense, and Reserection has some of the worst acting I've ever seen, even for a horror movie.

and while I'm on my horror movie tangent,

- Freddy vs. Jason - There's so much I could say here, but I really don't know where to start. Bad, really bad.

- Crossroads - Britney Spears and acting do not mix. This movie is such a cliche, and it's not even a funny cliche.

Guess that makes 10. Can I just say, that I love LotR and Forest Gump, but I agree with the comments made earlier in the thread, that Shawshank Redemption should have won Best Picture.
