Ok, first of all, I owe my movie obsession to my father...who else gets a seven year old a copy of Empire of the Ants for her birthday? Without my father I would have never known the joys of Clash of the Titans, UHF or the copy of Desperate Living I once found stashed in his room as a kid.

So when he asked me to come over and watch TV last night, I figured I was in for a treat...Wrong. We watched Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954). This movie was painful to get through. It takes place in the Oregon wilderness, unfortunately unlike Oregon Trail no one dies of dysentery but they should have for being so annoying. The tagline for this movie was "LUSTY, MIRTHFUL GIRL-STEALING MUSICAL! . . . with Seven Great Songs!" I'm pretty sure an updated tagline would be "PAYBACK FOR MAKING YOUR PARENTS SIT THROUGH MTV'S HEADBANGER'S BALL WHEN YOU WERE A PRE-TEEN" or " SORRY DAD FOR REPEADEDLY PLAYING CHRISTIAN DEATH RECORDS AT HIGH VOLUME WHILE IN MY ROOM GROWING UP".

Anyways we watched the color version so everyone had too-bright cheeks and what appeared to be bad dye-jobs. Yes, some of the women were pretty, but given a name like Dorcas (pronounced Dork-us) spouting out things like "Ive always wanted to be a June bride and have a baby right away" its enough to send me running from the room holding my ears. The props and set which was done inside a sound stage, doesn't' make for a very convincing hard-time-settling-the-Oregon-countryside theme.

This movie had some of the longest dance scenes (and yes they were intertwined with acrobatics and barn-raising) that I have ever seen. This movie may possibly be the sole inspiration for the Village People, Richard Simmons, or Rent.

This is definitely the most annoying thing I've seen on a television set and had to sit through recently, and I have a seven year old daughter who loves Hannah Montana...which is saying something a lot.

So, I pose the questions, aside from geico commercials and The Lake House, what is the most annoying thing you've had to sit through lately?

I know I will be bombarded for this,but...the ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW.

Why...oh Lordy Bee, WHY-does every one that discovers I like oodball off the wall movies think I will automaticcally like this stupid lousy musical??? For one...I don't like musicals. ROCK and ROLL HIGH SCHOOL? Yeah...but Broadway music? Plus the fact that Meatloaf sings in it is enuff to have me cringing. And,sorry,but...and I'm not a homophobe...but male homosexuality really is not a plus in my movie watching criteria. (Now throw in some lesbians...and I find that quite interesting.....!  :twirl:)

To put it bluntly....I HATE Rocky Horror.   :hatred: Period.

OK...let the rocks fly.

It is a really annoying movie (Rocky Horror).

I find Meatloaf to be entertaining, actually, but the whole reciting lines schtick for Rocky Horror didn't do much for me the time I went to see it, either.  Kinda reminded me of the bizarre and depressing sorta RPG stuff people used to do in the seventies in urban areas (cf, "The Nomi Song").

What, Susan Sarandon's young boobies didn't do anything for you?   :teddyr:

Nah...gimme Uschi Digart anyday!!!  :twirl:

I may be mistaken but I believe "7 Brides for 7 Brothers" was the inspiration, at least partly, for the TV series "Here Come the Brides", which my mother and 5 sisters forced my father and myself to watch every week it was on, including the reruns. What I remember most about the show is that Mark Leonard played the part of Seattle's one and only evil land baron, almost didn't recognize him without pointy ears. This show was just awful.
I actually like the Geico Gecko, and the caveman commercials, there is on that I've seen on the discovery channel that I find hilarious, the cave man is a guide in a natural history museum.
As far as "Rocky Horror Picture Show", while I find some of it a little off, Susan Sarandon in her underwear makes it pretty easy to watch although I do find that Barry Bostwick is kind of creepy looking.

Funny you should mention "7 Brides for 7 Brothers" as that was just on TCM the other day and I, too, couldn't stand more than a minute or two of it's rabid saccharine romanticism and found something else to do.  Weird thing is the first time you see it it's not really all that annoying a movie.  Granted it's a bait and switch, you think you're watching a western but it turns out ot be a musical.

But you have to tip your hat to it.  This movie was probably indirectly responsible for the 70s era abduction themed exploitation movies.  :lookingup:

Which leads us to my annoying pick (for today): STAR SLAMMER.

It's basically a WIP flick set in space.  When I was much younger I found this amusing.  It is hilariously bad.  (There's a city matte shot in it lifted from Buck Rogers!)  But whenver I've tried to re-visit it on DVD I just, well, 'annoying' is probably the best way to sum the experience up.

Mine is E.T., , I really hate that movie, it's annoying as hell.

THE LAND BEFORE TIME movies . . .  all but the original.  I was about ready to open a vein every time they came out with another one when my kids were little.

DIARY OF A MAD BLACK WOMAN.  The most annoying of many annoying features was the way the script managed to have its cake and eat it too.  The mad black woman gets revenge on her abusive ex-husband by physically and mentally torturing him after he becomes an invalid, then nurses him back to health and feels smug when she forgives him.  It's easy to forgive after you already got your revenge!  Infuriating, particularly when the movie is so preachy and religious. 

RC and Zap, I agree on ROCKY HORROR.  I was surprised by how much I actually hated this when I finally saw it.   I've noticed that women seem to like this one more than men.

Kester, I have moderately fond memories of STAR SLAMMER.  I probably shouldn't watch it again, for fear of what happened to you happenning to me.         

Actually, I think SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS is a pretty decent musical.  Not one of my favorites, but it's okay.  As for the color, it was FILMED in color . . . it was not colorized.

Probably the most painful movies I have ever seen are WIRED (the John Belushi story) and David Lynch's DUNE.  Both actually gave me headaches.

I have several films that I got annoyed by:

Con-air became annoying for me since it was shown on ABC nearly every weekend, so I got tired of seeing it so it became annoying for me.

Goldeneye become annoying when everytime Spike TV would hold a James Bond Marathon, this was always on, so I got tired of watching it.  Of course I still love the N64 game that will never become annoying.

Dragon: The Bruce Lee story:  I hate the film more or less but it's annoying to me since there were some glaring mistakes about certain events mainly the Long Beach Internationals.  Sadly the last time time I had to watch this film was when I was in the hospital back in Janurary to have plastic surgery and while waiting for my parents to come get me this was really the only thing on TV at the time.

 

I detest and abhor any musical with a vengeance!  :hatred:

Re. "Detest and abhor all musicals . . ." -- Forbidden Zone is a musical.  Give that one a try & get back to us --
* * *
Seven Brides played incessently on daytime TV in Virginia in the '60's and '70's.  The local station must've gotten the rights to it.  I actually have fond memories of the axe dancing and acrobatics, but am sure it would not weather well -- Not a film I would seek out, but there are more annoying things out there, believe you me --
* * *
I first saw Rocky Horror as a stage play with the original cast in London in 1973.  I'm afraid the fond memory quotent overpowers any sort of objectivity I may have on this.  Again, at least it was trying to be creative & struck a chord.  A lot of these strangely popular things manage to endure.  I remember the first time I did the audience-participation thing it was lots of fun, but diminished over time, re. motorcycles not allowed in the theatres, no candles/only flashlights, etc. etc.
* * *
Didn't particularly hate Dune, either.  Now, Mulholland Drive I found more than a tad annoying, as I couldn't find any coherence in the character switching.  I'm fine with confusing and bizarre:  "L'age D'or" is a favorite, but just threw my hands up at that one --
peter huh?/denny wtf?

"Unknown Origin" (not "Of Unknown Origin") annoys me.  It is a copy of "The Thing" set in an undersea mining facility.  I can deal with low budget ripoffs, but this one went so far as to directly copy dialog, and that really annoyed me.

I know I might offend some with this, but I find the Friday the 13th series very annoying.  I sat down with a friend of mine and watched all 10 of these movies in a row(He still can't see in 3-D).  Individually, all of the movies are what they are: Formulaic horror movies.  Yet, there are huge inconsistencies when you look at the grand scheme of the series. 

First of all, through the titles you see that they try to end the series twice.  Part 4 is called the Final Chapter.  Now, it really wouldn't have bothered me if they had ended on this movie.  It even stars a young Corey Feldman.  What more could you ask for, right?  So, they make part 5: A New Beginning, but they put no effort into it at all.  In part 5 Corey Feldman's character is now a traumatized teenager living at what appears to be a summer camp.  Keep in mind that Corey Feldman is not in this movie because it was only 2 years after part 4 and he is not actually a teenager yet so I can't actually blame them for that.  Anyway, instead of being creative and maybe having the traumatized kid as the killer they have Jason come in and kill stuff and they don't actually explain how he's alive again.  How is this a new beginning?!?!?  It's the same movie!  Again!  Are there new years resolutions that Jason has made that we don't know about?  Is that why he seemed like he lost some weight?  That's it!  The new beginning refers to Jason making a commitment to healthy eating.

Part 9, which they affectionately call "Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday," again makes you believe that this money maker has lost its steam and the powers that be are finally putting this series to rest.  However, you would be wrong.  It part 9 Jason actually goes to hell.  We see giant foam hands rise up from the ground and pull Jason down to what we believe to be hell.  We even get a cameo by Freddy Krueger's hand as it snatches Jason's mask and drags it to hell as well.  That's it, right?  No more.  Well, I hope you didn't make plans(for sanity), because here comes Jason X!  We're now hundreds of years in the future and someone is doing scientific experiments on Jason Voorhees.  The same Jason Voorhees that supposedly resides in hell.  Yeah, they don't explain that one either.  Also, what kind of experiments are they running here?  Here's a hint.  His ADD and/or asbergers syndrome is probably manifesting itself in what we like to call the "choppies" and is probably too far gone to cure with medication.

The rest of the movies are among these same lines.  Jason is revived via electricity on several occasions...Seriously.  In part 6 Jason is peacefully dead, when the same main character originated by Corey Feldman who is now all grown up decides he has unfinished business with Jason's corpse.  He proceeds to dig up the grave and stab the corpse with a long metal rod.  It suddenly storms and lightening strikes the pole re-animating Jason.  Jason is now alive and in full stabby mode.  I can't help but feel that this whole situation could've been avoided with a good hobby.  Say what you will, but if this guy were in his moms basement playing Magic: The Gathering this whole situation could've been avoided. 

In Part 8: Jason Takes Manhattan Jason is revived with an underwater power line that gets tripped by a yacht on it's way from Crystal Lake to Manhattan.  Yes, that's right.  Crystal Lake feeds directly into the Atlantic ocean.  From there it's just a dingy ride to the Island of Manhattan.  Jason hitches a ride on this yacht after killing the current occupants who happen to be teenagers having sex.  So, not only does Jason act as the moral compass for abstinent teens, but he also knows how to operate a yacht and safely navigate it to Manhattan...from a lake.  Those night courses are really paying off now. 

Honorable Mention goes to Part 7: The New Blood in which Jason is re-animated using telekinetic powers.  Hooray for Jason!

I understand that the makers of this series were just trying to turn a buck after a while, but c'mon.  Make even the slightest effort to be creative.  In some of the movies he's just alive again.  No explanation or anything.  Aren't these supposed to be professional writers.  I could come up with a slew of ideas better than the current ones.  Like:

-Jason was just biding his time doing volunteer work at the old folks home until campers came back to Crystal Lake.

-Jason went to the doctor and was prescribed anti-biotics.  He's good to go now.

-Jason, much like midgets, runs on electricity.  Who knew?

See, right off the top of my head.  Not that hard.  Anyway, that's why this series is the most annoying to me.  Also, they're making another one.

Bamboozled (2000) is the only Spike Lee joint that annoyed the hell out of me. I love most of his other movies though. Duets (2000) annoyed me because of Paul Giamatti and Maria Bello's characters. I just wanted to shoot them  :lookingup:

Wow, RC.  I NEVER knew anyone who disliked Rocky Horror!  I've never seen it but everyone who has makes out like it's the second coming in film terms.  Good for you for bucking the trend! :thumbup:

I get heaps of flack for admitting I've never seen it and not really interested in seeing it.  Maybe one day I'll check it out, but until then, meh.  I have no problem with the story line, I think it's just that everyone has hyped the bejeebles out of it to the point where I lost interest before I started.

My son adored those movies when he was little.  I liked them too but not as much as him.  They had some good messages about friendships and accepting people as they are and working together to help each other out.  I lost track of how many they ended up making.  By the time he was about 10 he grew out of them.  And then, God help me, came Yu-Gi-Oh! :buggedout:

Most Annoying Movie for me would have to be The Sound of Music.  Oh God!  I just want to gouge out my eyes with a spoon when I heard Julie Andrews start up.

7 Brides for 7 Brothers I saw when I was a kid and enjoyed it but I haven't seen it since.  So I'd probably hate it now.

I'm guessing that you probably fell asleep by this point, and I wouldn't blame you for falling asleep during part 5 (or 3, or 4, or 8), but it is not Jason in part 5. They did fairly well explain it, as they even unmasked the killer who was pretending to be Jason. Jason is still dead in part 5.

My favorites are parts 2 and 9.


What do I find annoying?

Any film by J.R. Bookwalter

Zardoz and Phantasm fans

(that last part was mostly to p**s some people off) :teddyr:

I agree completely....I HATE this film...HATE IT!

How about Grease and Grease 2....I can't stand them either. Musicals in general p**s me off.

Speaking of musicals, when Moulin Rouge came out a few years back, everyone I knew was praising it like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. When I finally saw it, I was nearly reduced to catatonia.


So that is what makes my hair stand on end when one walks by me. Here I thought it was just me being creeped out. :teddyr:

Can't agree about Grease -- I enjoyed that one.
But you can't get me to watch Moulin Rouge.  No way, no way, no way.

"Electric Dreams" is pretty damned annoying.

I bet that "Heartbeeps" is really annoying, too, though haven't seen it.

Oh!  And I have to say, I despised the movie "You've Got Mail."  It was badly written, and was meant to be romantic but was really creepy and insulting instead.   Blllllleh.

My dad saw it once, and refuses to watch it again.  He explained to me why he can't watch it again, since he said h went to one of it's showing in theaters where everyone dressed up and said he would never do that again.

Death Proof - I was expecting a fun homage to the old grindhouse films, not one and half hour of girls talking geeky. Easily last years most disappointing film for me, I was p**sed off after watching it  :hatred:

I agree partially on DEATH PROOF....Tarintino's over indulgence in "homage" movies is getting old.  But I LOVE the action scences. If he would stick to dialouge that stuck to a "real" plot.....and avoided the overblown copy cat BS....he would be better off...IMHO.  But I DO apperciate the fact that,regardless of it's shortcomings...the last half hour is heads over tails than crap like I AM LEGEND and SAW part 10...or whatever part their up to now. DEATHPROOF is a good movie.Superhero tripe/ the latest Adam Sandler/horror rehash of William Castle/ Disney computer cartoons....ugh! THATS the stuff that REALLY annoys me! Dang...I miss Don Dohler and Al Adamson.... :bluesad:

Horton Hears a Hoo! I wasn't the only parent in the theatre cringing in ear pain

also, I thought Marebito was awefully annoying

He holds the distinction of directing the only movie that I've actually went to the trouble of boxing up and sending back to Amazon for a refund.  And if you saw my DVD collection, you'd realize just how great a distinction that is  :teddyr:

I agree about Rocky Horror as well.  I used to have a girlfriend who was raving about it, then I saw it and it was crap. 

I'm surprised Horton Hears a Who made it up here.  I thought it was pretty well done and had a good message for the kiddies.  I'd say the current crop of hollywood musicals are really annoying.  Can we stop pretending that actors can sing?

Anybody mention Scarlet Fry's Junkfood Horrorfest? I haven't seen it, but I hear the part where the rabbi drinks a jug of corn syrup is particularly annoying.

West Side Story.

Start playing that movie at any random point, and I won't make it over 60 seconds.  The stupid knife fight ... just ... ugh.

"I met a girl/Her name is Maria-aaaa/MariaMariaMaria-aaaaa"

AHHHHHH!  TURN IT OFF!

For me,it's the movie 1941 that Spielberg did back in the late 70's,I think.Plus,Howard the Duck,which for some reason I seen in the movie theater..That Burt Reynolds flick where Candace Bergen sang in it?? Can't think of the name of it..Freddy Got Fingered was annoying and irritating and wanted to strangle Tom Green's character or just him.I saw that on tv and was curious how bad it was.It made Pink Flamingos look like Grease...

Lol, I love 1941, I think it's a great flick. Gotta agree with you about Howard the Duck though. .. I refuse to watch anything with Tom Green in it, never have seen him in anything or at anytime that he didn't immediately make me want to vomit.

Here's one I may catch flack for: APOCALYPSE NOW.

It remains the only movie I ever walked out of the theater on - keep in mind I saw JAWS: THE REVENGE and BATTLEFIELD EARTH on the big screen.

It's not that I was offended or insulted or anything, just incrediably bored. I remember checking my watch thinking it had been on for at least two hours and realizing it had only been 45 minutes!



Peter Bogdonavich's AT LONG LAST LOVE (1975), and it was his (then) main squeeze Cybill Shepherd rather than Candace Bergen - which probably would have been just as bad. It was the first (and last!) movie musical since about 1929 with the songs recorded live. Bad enough of an idea if you're working with Frank Sinatra or Judy Garland, but Burt Reynolds and Cybill Shepherd?

Some great IMDb trivia:

 After the film had been pulled from theatres due to poor tickets sales, Peter Bogdanovich wrote an open letter, printed in newspapers throughout the country, apologizing for the quality of the film.


After the world premiere of the film, guest Ethel Merman was heard to remark "Thank God, Cole isn't alive to see this," referring to her old friend Cole Porter, whose songs were used in the picture.

You walked out on APOCALYPSE NOW...yet have sat through  AT LONG LAST LOVE. Dam. You are truley a horse of a different color! I give you Karma!!!! (Not the first time....and I'm sure it won't be the last.....your quite unique!  :thumbup:

And no...I don't wan't to toungue kiss in the shower...!  :tongueout:)

Did you see AT LONG LAST LOVE in a theatre, Raffine?  I've been interested to see that for years (but not way back when it was new.) 

Idiocity-the one movie where a soilder wakes up in the future and everybody is stpid.  There wasn't a single character in that film that I liked.

But the crown has to go to Napolean Dynamite.-Ultra annoying movie made even more annoying by tons of people wearing "Vote for Pedro" shirts and doing bad impressions of the main character. 

I have to agree with Napoleon Dynamite. I understand the movie, but I don't 'get' it, if you know what I mean.

Oh dear!

I thought I had completely erased that experience from my mind; until somebody had to come along and mention it. :lookingup:

I saw that when it came out. They would have a Lady's Day (something like that) at a local mall theatre on a certain day each month. My mother took us to see it as it was playing for this particular Lady's Day.

Thanks :tongueout:

Gotta agree with you there, those impressions didn't get any funnier after the first SIXTEEN BILLION TIMES I heard them.

There are a few internet t-shirt sites that are just eating every line of that movie up. It's bad enough they make shirts with every slightly amusing quote on them, but lately I've seen shirts with just plain stupid, nonsensical lines on them, like they just grab any random phrase. I saw one with a picture of ND on it that just said "WHATEVER I WANT" on it. Who would wear that?

My vote would be for Fast and The Furious, it's sequels, and any movie starring Vin Diesel.

I give you Karma for Fast and the Furious.  A friend of mine showed the film several years ago and I couldn't stand it.  I'm sorry a story about tuners and street racing isn't going to keep my attention for very long.  While pay to see that stuff when I can just go to the other end of the town I live it and see people street race.  Vin Diesel is one of those actors who is only suited for action films and that's about it, anything I think is just over his head acting wise.
 

90% of the teenage girls I know of ... one came over the other day to visit my daughter and had a shirt that said "It's all about me!" to which I looked at her shirt and said, "Live in that world, reality is a ugly place."

"Napoleon Dynamite" made me laugh quite often, and I don't usually like "stupid" comedy (which has become all the rage in recent years).  Lots of it has to be that I grew up in a rural area, and we had some eccentric types around, including mall ninjas.  We even had a llama farm down one country road.


I dunno, he was really good in "The Iron Giant."   :smile:

Anything with The Rock. I can't stand that guy; and he doesn't choose roles that fit him very well. Standing Tall? get real... My father knew the real Buford as he was sheriff where my dad grew up. Buford was a racist small town cop. If you've ever dealt with a small town cop, you catch my drift. He was a far cry from Dwayne Johnson who is half black and half somoan...Buford is probably rolling over in his grave..


The real Buford

The Rock

(http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk277/serinatinkerbell/Rock.jpg)


I can't help but feel the irony

Did you see The Pacifier? 

It's basically Mr. Nanny, except instead of Hulk Hogan, it's Vin Diesel and he has to take care of some kids.  It's a 'comedy.'

I have to disagree, to a degree.  Granted, I haven't seen the original Walking Tall or know much about Buford, but given the fact that it's a remake, things get updated for remakes.  Plus, I do think the Rock's a halfway decent actor.  He might choose the worst scripts to tackle, but most people I know are at least happy with his performances. 

He was good in The Rundown, The Game Plan, and The Scorpion King.  Doom was a mistake from the word "go", so I don't think he should take the full blame for that, but should've steered clear from it as well.  The only good reviews for "Doom" were that The Rock was good in his role.

One thing I have to say about The Rock, is when he did SNL the first time, he did VERY well. That part where he was dressed like a woman was great.

I'll have to agree with some of the films mentioned: Rocky Horror was horror-ble  :lookingup:. But then, I've never really understood what the general population considers to be "cool cult" or whatever you want to call it. I actually love musicals, but I will agree that Sound of Music is annoying; the last time I tried to watch it, I was literally clawing at the back wall of the room, trying to escape before the opening credits had ended (I had promised to sit through it, and I did, but I died a little that day). I know musicals are unrealistic, and I kind of understand that the style of music in most of them is different enough that people don't care for it anymore, but then again, I'm an old fart who grew up with them, and Singin' in the Rain and The Music Man are just darn good movies, not to mention the Hope & Crosby Road pictures and almost anything with Fred Astaire in it. Heck, I even saw Xanadu on the big screen.

Most annoying movies that hasn't been mentioned yet? Titanic, the grand epic about a one-night stand that only got attention because of its setting, and Pearl Harbor, a movie so successfully dependent on its setting and "power music" soundtrack to carry it along that many totally overlooked the horrible dialog, inane plot and bad acting.

i haven't seen that, i'll have to check it out. Thanks for the heads up...

ps i love your hair  :twirl:

I think he'd be more successful if he acted more in comedies.  Dude's hilarious, and in comedies you don't so much need to 'act' as be funny.  If that makes sense.

Two favorite Rock moments, but I guess it'd be funnier if you were a wrestling fan.

I have to somewhat respectfully disagree about Rocky Horror.

I like the movie, granted, but I never liked it as a 'cult' movie.  I just liked it, period.  I think it's a horrible idea for a movie musical, which makes it work all the more better.  Generally if it's a bad idea in theory, I respect the filmmaker for accomplishing their goal of finishing the film instead of bailing out halfway through.

I've never seen the movie in a theater and wouldn't ever think of dressing up as a character and soforth just to do so. 

I don't hate musicals.  They just have to catch my interest.  Rocky Horror was one of them.  So was West Side Story and Cannibal! The Musical.  Some people would argue both of those were not good either, but I liked them.  In the end it comes down to people's own personal taste or lack there of.

Tourist Tip: If you're ever in Pigeon Forge, TN be sure to catch CARBO'S POLICE MUSEUM  where you can see Buford Pusser's CAR OF DEATH! I've seen it! They have plenty of other Pusser memorabilia as well, including his WALLET OF DEATH, and, for sale in the gift shop, reproductions of the bat he used to whoop up on moonshiner butt.

http://www.mypigeonforge.com/2089-CarbosPoliceMuseum/index.html (http://www.mypigeonforge.com/2089-CarbosPoliceMuseum/index.html)

They should use a different picture; that wagon in front doesn't exactly avoid the term 'redneck'. For that matter, none of the picture avoids that term.

Does anyone have the car he was ambushed in at New Hope in '67?

The real true-life home of Buford Pusser is open for tourists in Adamsville, TN. Maybe they have it!



Pigeon Forge doesn't try to run from that term - it lovingly embraces it. They are, as you see, very proud of the car.  KEEP OFF the wagon, punks.

Yes!  Titanic filled me with RAGE the first time I saw it.  So, the old lady got married, had kids, grandkids, etc., yet when she dies she thinks of some guy she had a one-night-stand with over 80 years ago????  F*** you, James Cameron!

However, the second (and hopefully last) time I saw it, I was filled not with rage, but mirth!  I had a new interpretation of the ending scene.  She's not died and gone to Heaven where she can relive the happiest days of her life forever.  No, she's died and gone to HELL where she's trapped with the other lost souls of the Titanic, reliving the sinking for all ETERNITY!  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I actually rather liked Titanic . . . .



however, a movie that irritated the bejabbers out of me was melodrama called FULL MOON OVER BLUE WATER that had Gene Hackman in it.  One of the most mundane, boring, dismal films I've ever wasted an hour and a half of my life on.

Oooh, I hadn't thought of it that way! Evil karma to you! Bwahahaha!

I have yet to watch the Titanic, it just looked more like a sappy love story than a story of survival. Perhaps one day when I'm really, really board I'll watch it.

But I find any movie like Pearl Harbor or Flyboy where they just have to sick a stinking love story in it annoying. I like the action parts of the story, but is a love story really needed?

I was just thinking how funny The Rock was in Be Cool.

I live on the west side of TN and we use to go to pigeon forge, knoxville, chatanooga and a few other tourist-esque places when i was a kid. I can't remember if it was pigeon forge or gatlinburg, but once my dad took me to Ripley's Museum before it burnt. I hear that they rebuilt it after it burned but is not as cool as it was back in the day...

I'm looking forward to his appearance in this:
Get Smart
http://youtube.com/watch?v=s5cdOy8TCnY

Granted, it's Steve Carrell's movie.  But from previews I've seen, it looks like The Rock might have some funny moments.  One scene Rock's talking to his boss about a memo, and he goes: "Is this your stapler?" Boss says "Yeah."  Rock then staples the memo to the boss's head. 

It's definitely a flick I'm gonna see.

The real Buford

(http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k37/chococat667/school1.jpg)

I have no complaints about the Rock, just about the remakes, sequels of Walking Tall. They seem to blow it every time. And I don't know about that guy's complaint about the real Buford being a racist, I doubt it.
 The original had such an effect on me I bought books about the real Buford Pusser. If you want to read a great book about what Pusser was dealing with, read "The State Line Mob," by W. R. Morris. Great book about what he cleaned up. And lastly, you have to see the original ... GREAT MOVIE.  :cheers:

I'm gonna agree.
Anything with Shia La Bouf in.

Wild Women of Wongo..
I'm watching it right now....

Yep still watching it.

As I read through this thread I found myself amazed and, on more than one occassion, curious and very thankful.  Thankful I've never had the misfortune to see Napoleon Dynamite, Fast and The Furious, The Pacifier, and whatever the movie about that Buford fellow was.

OTOH this thread also left me scratching my head wonder: "Who the $#@! is J.R. Bookwalter?"

First link a Google search turned up was for Tempe video.  IIRC they are (or were) an outfit that's like Asylum, only so ultra low budget they barely have a SFX budget.  Curious I checked the IMDB listing for the director.  That's an entire filmography of annoyingly bad DTV movies!  :buggedout:

I wouldn't say IDIOCRACY was the "most annoying" movie I ever saw but it was the most blatantly un-funny attempt to do PC "retarded humor" I've ever seen.  It could have been redeemed if it had a moral, alas it was just lame.

PEARL HARBOR was a cloying harlequin romance set during the opening salvo that brough American into WWII.  It goes beyond annoying.  The entire storyline is in poor taste and that's all I'll say about it.

And as for ROCKY HORROR, you don't go to see that for the movie you go for the experience.

However I would like to add that you're all wrong.  The most annoying movie of all time, ever, is TEKNOLUST.  A special cauldron waits in Hell to eternally boil the skin off the bones of those responsible for inflicting this confused -ism masquerading as a work of genre fiction on the unsuspecting public.  Yes, their skin shall be boiled off and their skeleton forced- by demons wielding flails made from the leather of the skin of politicians and the bones of greedy corporate con artists like Madoff- to wander the swamp of the fifth circle as maggots roil up out of the muck to form new flesh; flesh which will then be boiled off again.  :hatred:

Bratz the movie. God that movie is irritating with it's so-called messages about life and high school, Jon Voight continued the downward spiral of his career by appearing in this mess of a movie as the high school principal.

Most annoying . . . .


almost anything played on IFC.

Totally  :thumbup:

Xanadu- Just please make it stop- I would have loved to be bitten by a cobra, mauled by a lion, or thrown in a pit of acid rather than watch that basket case! :hatred:

Personally I love The Rocky Horror Picture Show and all the Friday 13th movies (apart from the remake) but I can understand why some of you wouldn't.

My most annoying film, CLERKS 2 WHY DID IT HAPPEN???? :hatred:

Because there were so many unanswered questions in CLERKS 1.

Star Wars Episode 1. Jar Jar and Jake Lloyd, nuff said.

^ Beat me to it!

I know this is said a lot here, but I don't think the hate can be overdone on Seltzer and Friedberg. Just the fact people like their movies annoys me to death.
