Other Science Fiction Series

I threw my hands up in despair and stormed out- movie and/or show moments with which we just couldn't deal...

Ghost Rider sucked, which is surprising seeing as the Director's cut of Daredevil was so cool...



Ghost Riders faults can be summed up thus - Sam Elliot and Peter Fonda thought that they were in a movie about a man that was tricked into selling his soul, and in the process becoming bonded to a pretty effin' scary demon. Everybody else was let in on the joke, that they were staring in a CGI crapfest with emo-rejects for bad guys and Nick Cage doing a bad Elvis impersonation. And this is my review of the Directors cut of Ghost Rider. I can only imagine that the theatrical version now resides on the list of cinematic atrocities that many of the other Marvel movies occupy.

I’m never serious. Serious means something bad is about to happen.

I suppose Dazed and Confused would appeal to a pothead.

Otherwise, I didn't think Field of Dreams or Buffy the Vampire Killer were bad - I liked them, probably because his role was minimal. Same with Good Will Hunting, his role seemed minimal to me, but Robin Williams was pretty irritating. I really liked Armageddon, with his role being the least enjoyable. Apparently the John Ryan series has been ruined with Clancy's selection of Affleck.

I walked out of Sky High and Epic Movie. Both were absolutely terrible, and the acting would make Terry Schiavo cry.


I'm going to the special hell for saying that.....

Let's see, movies I literally could not bear to sit through, :)


The Last Starfighter = trailer trash cast in trailer trash movie. Also, worst possible special effects, ever.

The Black Hole = dull beyond belief. Also, good runner-up for worst possible special effects.

The Matrix 2 + 3 = travesties of the first kind.

Doom = yawn.

Event Horizon = they ran out of money and plot after the first ten minutes.

Robocop 3 = Kindergarten drivel.

American Pie = adolescent, crude and gross sexual 'humor' that even Benny Hill wouldn't find up to the standards of his outings. I'm trying to think of a way for it to be more disappointing. I just... It's not coming. I only went to see it for Alyson Hannigan, cuz she was such a dearheart in My Stepmother Is an Alien. I don't think I ever lost so much respect for a person on a single day.


P.S. The Fifth Element rocks, k? Are we green on that? :)

Yes, well...maybe not...maybe I should just get a medium orange juice...but I'd like a large orange juice...maybe I could get a medium orange juice and a small orange juice and end up somewhere in between and medium and a large orang...*walks out*

I swear I couldn't take it anymore. wtf did that have to do with anything? It hurt my brain so much. At least the girl I was with hated it too. The dialog was just so awful. I'm seriously in some pain right now just thinking about it. That's the only movie I've ever walked out on.



LOL. Yeah, that was bad! They should have called it "Crap Hill" instead. :)

It has Hugh Grant in it, right? Seems a sort of trend, to have Brittish actors say "Fuck" a lot, with an American accent. And have em pull all-nighters, getting drunk (which they call getting "pissed"). It's meant to be funny, or really cool or something. For a nation of sexually repressed football hooligans, as Cleese once called em, I suppose it has meaning. Whatever.

The story was written by Frank Miller, and it was actually pretty good. The three big minuses were that the studio said it had to be PGified, Weller wasn't in it, and they ran out of money for physical FX, leading to a lame final fight. It's actually not that bad a movie, considering. But the main reason I'll watch it is for Basil Poledouris' music, which was so sorely missed in the second film.

Oh jeez - Borat. Horrible! I didn't walk out but I wanted to. The few decent moments didn't make up for all the stupid toilet humor. Soooo overrated.

As for Nap Dyn - I cringed through that whole movie because I grew up in the midwest and much of that "unrealistic" nothingness was shockingly close to how things really are for some people. But on 2nd watching I can enjoy the parody more, and I'm even beginning to appreciate the underlying genius of the film.

As for TV, there's only way to make Walker: Texas Ranger entertaining. Watch it and try - try really hard - to think of what you would change to make a parody of this show. There's nothing! It's so stupid that it's a maxed out parody of itself! (A friend recommended this. It got me to watch ~2 minutes, I've never been able to sit through any more.)

'American Pie' was so sickening that I let my eyes wander elsewhere around the room while watching it, and was only present because some friends had asked me to join them. When one of them tried to drag me bodily out to watch the second one, I jerked my arm out of his grasp and vehemently advised him to FUHGEDDABOUDIT.

I fell asleep during 'A Guy Thing'.

'Attack of the Clones' had me cringing during the fireplace scene, Anakin's pathetic flailure at romantic poetry, and Padme's acting - there wasn't enough wood in Canada to do it justice.

At the end of 'Kinky Boots', when Joel Edgerton tries to do the catwalk turn, I was groaning out loud - only thing that kept me in the room was the presence of fellow Browncoats.

HOWEVER.

Not really a movie/TV-show moment, but closely related thereto: Even when fellow Browncoats are present, if one of them starts playing a River/Jayne vid, I'm certain to disappear faster than a popstar's brain.

I am fortunate not to have seen most of these.

But I will add: The Abyss 90% fabulous action movie with cool atmosphere / 10% alien butterflies

Recently tried Underworld because her outfits look so cool. Tuned out after about 20 minutes. Talk talk talk talk talk.
