I didn't know there were four Urban Legend movies. I enjoyed the first one (but then I haven't seen it in about five years) and I knew there was a sequel but I never saw it.

As to the fourth Crow movie, SciFi has shown that thing a lot lately. I watched most of it one day out of boredom. The sad thin about it is that there is actually some decent acting going on. Edward Furlong vs David Boreanaz, come on. Still, it was a really bad movie. You are right about that.

Mal: Yeah, well I'm known for that.

Definatley have to agree about Event Horizon. The movie wanted to be Hellraiser and Aliens combined but failed miserably.

Battlefield Earth - So bad

EraserHead - I've never made it past the first seven minutes

Lost Highway - has to be the single worst movie of all time. Bill Pullman must have paid someone for his SAG card.

Moulon Rouge - Painful stayed in theater because I was so shocked at how bad it was, I thought I must be having a stroke and halucinating from lack of oxygen

Independence Day - Bill Pullman again nuff said.

The SciFi Channel's remake of Dune - butchered the books completely.

We're all just folk now

Doesn't depend on the sheath?

a lot of iron age swords had metal sheaths. however, most of your medieval sheaths are wood or leather. pull a metal blade out it and its pretty close to silent. some wood scabbards even had raw wool inside to keep the blade clean. pull a sword out of that and you cant hear anything at all.

Planet of the Apes was, uhm....bad.

That lady chimp looked like Janet Jackson and I kept waiting for her to start wiggling her neck around.

I'm not defending the Dune mini series, if you think it's hate worthy I won't change that, but I think there's something wrong with what you said.

That is if the problem you have with SciFi Channel's Dune mini series is only what you said (that it butchered the books) then surely David Lynch's 1984 version of Dune is worse because it diverges from the books even more, completely changing some things in utterly unfounded ways and rewriting the ending.

I mean if the only thing you have against it is that it butchered the books shouldn't you hate the 1984 version (which, incidentally, I love) much more?

Again, I'm not trying to make you not hate the miniseries, it's just that what you said doesn't make sense (to me.)

(It should be pointed out that there are two things I know of where the movie was closer than the miniseries, one was Paul's third name, the miniseries producers thought, "Usul," was one name too many. The second is the placement of the, "For the father nothing," scene.)

One of the worst pictures to come out in the last 5 years that from beggining to end show women as sexual objects to be exploited and abused, not to mention that pedophile getting away with torturing and killing other young girls while a cop is forced into admitting he did it to save one of the victims, and there's one scene where Bruce Willis pulls a guys **** off, well again it took a lot to keep my popcorn down. And now there's talk of a sequel? So how many women and children are going to be abused in this?

Im one of the women that loved sin city, and not only because it was visually stunning. The women in this movie might not be where they wanted to be, and they did get abused and have to sell their bodies to survive. But I really found the whores in the movie rather though. They had fought for their independence from pimps and they really wanted to have control of their business. The world in which Sin City takes place is a fascist one and one that is even further from perfect that the one we in the western world live in now. Women under that rule would have had to fight pretty hard for any kind of independence. The whores in Sin City hadn't much of a carrier choice, like many of the whores now, but they fought for what little they could get. Sin City represents a world where everyones gotta take care of one self, and that aint a pretty world. It is a nightmare vision of what our own reality could have been. I like to call myself a feminist and I thought that the women in sin city, or most of them, fought as hard as they could for whatever they could get. I loved the film, and found that I could both understand and sympathize with most female characters in that fictional universe.

If men only like it because of Jessica Alba stripping I feel bad for them. Thees more that men can get out of it than pretty girls.

I think there can't be any worse films that makes me physically ill (even Pulp Fiction had some cleverness to it's violence) And though many will find this strange I'd be willing to sit through Star Wars 1, 2, and 3, then watch these two horrible movies.

I totally agree. And I'm a fan of some pretty gory movies like American Werewolf in London, Underworld and a big Conan the Barbarian fan.

Visually stunning? Well I suppose, but then again one could argue that horrific real life car crashes and public executions are visually stunning too.

And I'll agree that a lot may like it solely based on Jessica Alba's performance, and while I do find her rather easy on the eyes, even promises of her naked in an un-cut version couldn't make me watch it again. Maybe one has to be a fan of the comic to enjoy it.

To each their own, I suppose. Personnally I rank Sin City (and I think rank is the appropriate word) as slightly worse than anything Uwe Boll has or will produce.

I second that! I had almost forgotten about him. Like nails on a chaulk board. *shudder* Throw in anything with Wil Ferrel too. People keep telling me he's funny, I just don't see it... Now Steve Carell, he's FUNNY!
