Against the grain

This seems to be against the grain a bit, but here goes:

I hated the movie The Hangover.  Big hit last summer, made like, $500 Million.  I hated it.  Watched it on On Demand today.  Laughed once, during the whole 2 hour unedited director's cut.

Don't get too close, it's dark inside.

I not only like Beverly Hills Cop 3 but think its equal to it's predecessors in entertainment value.  Maybe even a little more so.

I can top that:  I liked Norbit.

I even have the dvd.

I loved Last Action Hero. It had its shortcomings, but as an action movie parody, it was great.

I would also put Payback in my top three Mel Gibson movies.

And I thought Hudson Hawk was a lot of fun.

And Ishtar made me laugh.

No one believes me but my favourite film of all time is a martial arts action thriller ~ Steve Carver's An Eye For An Eye:smile:

I also liked Hudson Hawk ~ not much wrong with a film which taught me to appreciate cappuchino coffee.  :drink:

I enjoyed Batman and Robin and Batman Forever.  They weren't as good as the first Keaton movie or Returns, but they were fairly fun.  I hated Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. I thought they were overlong and far too serious, draining all the fun out of the premises. 

On the subject of newer versions of old properties, I didn't much care for Peter Jackson's King Kong either. 

I don't find Angelina Jolie attractive at all.  Seriously, that is a rather hideous face.   

I never really felt South Park was funny.

I didn't think much of South Park: The Movie.  Since I'm not a fan of musicals to begin with I didn't like sitting through all of the songs.

I also find Julia Roberts hideous.  I mean, it looks like she was a victim of The Joker's Smylex gas.  That mouth wraps across half her head!

I never liked Rocky Horror Picture Show.
I don't much care for the Coen Brothers' movies.

Agreed on both counts!

I've pointed this out before in other threads, but I don't like brat pack movies from the 80s.  I actually find them quite dull.

The one that intrigues me is the pizza with sausages rolled in the crust. Now, if they could just combine that with the double-layer cream cheese crust, they'd really have something.
