Browsing through the list makes me think you really did not try to see those bad ones

One example: I have not seen it (yet?), but „Hard Ticket to Hawaii” seems to promise top cringe factor... Just search it on YouTube („Skater's death” being my favorite scene http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOBbmdJTLdE ), but be really, really warned!



This is a MASTERPIECE!!!
Thanks for making my day JW!

Oscar winner.... Oct 12, 2009

The worst film ever for me is Waterworld with Kevin Costner and if I may add another film I would surely mention Vicky Christina Barcelona (not even sure this is the proper title)..... I am very sorry to disagree with the Academy but why on earth did they award Penelope Cruz as all she does is yell in spanish?

It is probably the worst film I've ever seen. It stars Jim Carrey and I seem to remember either walking out half way through or wishing I had done (it was more than 10 years ago!).

The title says it all.
Hard Ticket is class,
but after seeing this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQySDbFb97s
I had never really recovered.
A must-see.

Saturday Night Fever Oct 12, 2009

What really hurt me was that all the young fans interviewed by the reporters claimed that "that that film really embodied and portrayed the desires and dreams of all the young people".
Tony Manero was a young boy who worked in a shop, and his only dream was to go dancing on Saturday. My friends and I really loved dancing, but we wanted to study at the university and do something much more exiting in life than just going dancing on Saturdays.

The worst film I have ever seen... Oct 12, 2009

was so bad and so empty that I only remember scenes and not the title (it was some sequel or the nth episode of a trilogy).

Too many to remember... Oct 12, 2009

But one is among my most hated movies: "Pretty Woman".
Another one which I could not stand was "The Interpreter".
I usually try to forget about bad movies, because they really make me furious...
I decided that I'll give a movie about 15-20 minutes, and a book about 20 pages. If after that I still find it uninteresting, that's over with...

PS I loved Pulp Fiction!

"Hiroshima mon amour" by Resnais

"Onibaba" by Kaneto Shindo

"Salò" by Pier Paolo Passolini

I wouldn't say they're the worst I've ever seen in my life, but they're definitely the worst I've seen this year. Ben-Hur was awfully painful to get through as well, and the couple of films I've seen by Alejandro Jodorowsky - well, let's not go there or I'll pop a vessel!

[/quote] The Terminal with Tom Hanks.... 18:04
It's difficult to articulate quite how much I hated this film.......
Tom Hanks should leave comedy well well alone.

[Edited at 2009-10-12 16:08 GMT] [/quote]

Terminal??? if we mean the same movie, it's one of the best. And it's not a comedy. Sorry you didn't get it.
regards, Ewa

Can't remember one title... Oct 12, 2009

But usually those movies where a teacher faces a really bad class and in the end they're all good guys...

PS - Pulp Fiction was a masterpiece

One I saw in high school Oct 12, 2009

"The Lair of the White Worm"- why did I see it? No clue. It was so bad it was hysterical...
