No Country for Old Men is an awful film, with an outrageously stupid plot and a terrible villain/lead. I laughed every time the deadpan Xavier Bardem shot everybody. Again, and again, and again....

The A Team: I know it's a 2010 film but I only saw it this year.

OK, I'll put it on for you, Trevor.  You South Africans see movies late thanks to the underpants embargo.

MEGA PYTHON VS. GATOROID
BUCKY LARSON

There's still about 24 hours to make nominations before I put up the poll.  I'm still not quite sure which movie Kaseykockroach favors.

Can I nominate LAND OF THE LOST again?  It was bad enough to win TWO years in a row!

Alright, I suppose I'll choose Transformers 3 then...

I haven't seen it, but it has to be worse than DRIVE!  :wink:

There's just somethings we may never get.  I'll never get why people think No Country for Old Men is one of the best films of the past decade when it screws up its climax and ending royally, destroying what would have been, well, an amazing film.

Um, the movie ends exactly like the book. 


I didn't see that many movies this year, but the worst had to be GREEN HORNET.

What works in a book, may not translate well to a movie.  Think of your favorite movie and make it have no climax to it.  Would you like that?  What if in Blade Runner, we see Deckard enter the apartment and then suddenly cut to very end of the movie with Deckard and Rachael living the apartment.  You cannot set up a movie to have a climax and then decide to skip over it.  I'm not buying that s**t no matter how much you try to sell it.

Besides, certian aspects already different in the movie than in the book (I believe the woman actually does flip the coin in the book instead of refusing it).

That would be still preferable to the version with Deckard's voiceover narration.
