Movies you hate, that people love
 

With the success of "Movie's you love that Suck", I decided to make the "Movies You Hate, That People Love." So, what are the movies you didn't like, that others mostly did?


Here are mine:

Signs
Dogma (let the ranting begin)
Batman Begins (I left the theater, so I'm not giving you my final opinion)
Sleepy Hollow
The Ring
Napolean Dynamite
The Last House on the Left

^^^I hate dogma too^^^

I also didnt like Day of the Dead

Didnt like Pchyco at all either

Thank dogma! :p I thought I was the only one out there. Just wasn't as funny as Mallrats or Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (though the beginning was hilarious.)

I agree

Re: Movies you hate, that people love
 

Well all those that you picked, I love (except for Batman Begins which I have yet to see). So good choices! LOL...I actually think Dogma is a love it or hate it kind of film for most people.

Let's see:

The Life of David Gale: I actually know nothing about how it did critically but I know people raved about this movie to me for months and I was so excited to see it. The cast was exceptional and had not one, but two of my favorite actors. But that movie didn't work at all for me. AT ALL. I was just disgusted honestly.

The Birds: The only Hitchcock film I have seen that I flat out dislike.

El Marichi/Deperado/Once Upon A Time In Mexico: I watched all three because I swear everyone I know loves them. I don't get it; Johnny Depp couldn't even save Once Upon A Time in Mexico for me....and believe me that is saying something.

*Jumps on the bandwagon* I also hate Dogma.

I'm not a big fan of modern comedies at all, but to narrow it down a little, I'll say that I do not like any movie that features Will Ferrell. The man is an abscess on the face of cinema. I was also forced to watch Napoleon Dynamite recently, which it seems many people like a lot. I found it repellent.

Donnie Darko hate it....hate it so much.

Shit, I forgot about Napolean Dynamite. It was a huge disappointment IMO. Wasn't funny at all.

Holy Crap! I Love The Movie! LOL, I guess thats what this threads for though.

Thank God the "Guy-Flick" is still alive and kicking!

Guess chicks don't appreciate just how cool guitar cases full of guns actually are...

;)

:p

No I suppose we don't.
I thought at first it was because Antonio Banderas annoyed me so much (I saw Desperado first) but I have come to realize, I just honestly do not understand the appeal of these films. And I like many movies that could be considered "Guy-Flicks".:D

The Ring

Yeah, I didn't like that one either. I just edited my first post and put that on my list. Can't believe I forgot about that one.

Another one I meant to add was the Ginger Snaps films....I thought they sucked and so many people love them...I just didn't see what all the fuss was about, I mean I tried to give them a chance....I watched the first two, but just couldn't bare to sit through a third feast of that shit....pure garbage in my book...

And don't me wrong, I loved Ringu, but the Ring just sucked big floppy donkey cocks IMHO....And don't even get me started on Ring 2

Ooh, can't believe I forgot The Ring also. That movie was a HUGE letdown for me. I heard such great things. Very disappointing.

Titanic.

Last House on the Left.

The Hills Have Eyes.

Forgot about Last House on the Left. I'll have to edit my list once again. Thanks for participating and reminding me that Last House on the Left was a disappointment.

ok, you asked for it:

The entire Matrix trilogy- I fell asleep during the last 2
Blair Witch Project - didn't live up to the hype & it wasn't original (Cannibal Holocaust had the same premise)

Oh, I also have to put out there that I hated all three of the Lord of the Rings movies. Didn't care for the books, didn't care for the movies.

But Cannibal Holocaust was essentially three films in one ("real", "staged" & "real/staged), whereas The Blair Witch Project managed to sustain its "authentic, found footage" from beginning to end with no reprieve for the viewer.

To today's jaded audiences, pulling off such a feat and captivating millions with this unique idea was maybe only a matter of time, but the execution of BWP is impeccable.

Blair Witch Project, forced myself to stay awake.
Cast Away, again wanted to sleep.
Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2.
Titanic.
Hilander
Exorsist
Lord of the Rings
The Ring 1 & 2, mostly #2.
Open Water, has to be the worst movie I've ever seen, close call between this and Alone in the Dark.

1000 Corpses.

I hate all three of 'The Matrix' films.

Can't stand Titanic (worked in a theater when it came out!).

Million Dollar Baby even though i haven't seen it, i'm sure i'll dislike it.

Who the fuck would enjoy that piece of shit? Fuck I hate Leonardo DeCraprio.

House of 1000 Corpses Comes to mind immediately

Thank You!
I'm not the only one that hated The Matrix Movies...

I guess you haven't seen where it ranks as far as all time grossing films. ;)

YellowJacket... no prob. :)

BTW... I halfway agree about the Matrix Trilogy... nowhere near as good as the hype it got, but I don't 'hate' it.

LOTR I'm pretty much in the same area as Matrix... though the final installment really bored the fuck out of me, which is really odd... cause you'd think the finally would be really exciting.

...have the same feeling on this one......looks sentimental as hell

I friggen hated the matrix

H1000C- Goddess that movie was terrible

LOTR movies...So acted- the acting wasn't believable, you could hear the director almost...DUMB!

Dark Water- I quote Homer Simpson, "Booooooring."

I'm with you guys on Dogma. The funniest character was Matt Damon...bad sign.

Also hated the Matrix films, however I love Kerry Anne Moss.

I only saw the first one, and I wasn't really impressed either. I liked girls posing dead in the begining, but after that it went all down hill. A friend of mine is REALLY into that movie, but I think he atleast knows it sucked and loved it anyway so it's forgivable.

Other than that, I put in another vote for Napolean Dynamite. It was a waste of time... and I'm useless... my time has no value and I still feel robbed.

hellraiser sucked all ass, i hated it and halloween 3.:confused:

...had you said "Hellraiser 4" I could understand it...

"Texas chainsaw massacre" - the original.



Yeah i´m serious.


FUCK YOU TOO!!

:D

Not that I "hate" it, but The Exorcist is so incredibly overrated. It's OK in my opinion, but not nearly as good as everyone seems to think. IMO.

I hate Jaws because I hate Richard Dreyfus. He just sounds like someone's meticulously twisting his nutsack every time he delivers his lines.

Nice choice. Boring and stupid movie.

LMMAO


I actually liked him and thought he was quite funny in "What about bob". Hated Bill Murray though.

SACRILEGE!!! :eek: :eek: :p
