    Titanic.:rolleyes2 And all horror movies. Really, what's the point? To watch idiots die as a direct result of their own stupidity? That's what the Darwin Awards are for.

    Original Star Wars Trilogy. I understand how much of a visual and technological milestone they were, but as movies, they always struck me as mediocre to good. Don't get me wrong, they're not bad, but I don't think they deserve the pedestal most people place them on.

    Your generalizing with horror films, you should be lashed consistantly.

    You do realize that all horror films don't involve people dying Or idiots dying because it's own fault , right? Some are more subtle.

    Totally agree. I have watched a few on the original Star Wars and I really didn't see what was so great about them. Though, I do love the new remakes of them. I find them to be highly enjoyable.

    Titanic.
    Saw - I haven't seen Saw 2 yet, but I found the first one to really be a cool concept that didn't really work as well as it should. I spent most of the movie a little bored as these guys try to figure out what was going on. It was a good movie overall, but not worthy of the praise it often gets.

    And since another thread reminded me; Batman and Batman Returns - I enjoyed these movies and they're good for their time, and I won't sit here and claim to be an expert on Batman, but I don't feel that the movies had a good grasp on Bruce Wayne/Batman, and a lot of the villians to be honest. Tim Burton didn't seem to get the character if you ask me, so that hurts the movie in my eyes, especially when the guys who did Batman Begins nailed these classic characters so well.

    Yes you do. Otherwise your opinion holds no value whatsoever.
    Yeah, no kidding. I've never seen The Godfather, but I'm not gonna just tell people it sucks out of nowhere.

    That said I didn't like Brokeback Mountain
    mhmm mhmm, I have seen it when I was going out with my Ex (grudgingly agreeing... but oh well).

    As a movie goer, I can definetly say that if this movie didnt have two gay guys (as to a guy and girl) it wouldnt have gotten even NEARLY as much hype/top ratings/reviewers saying its perfect etc etc....

    I'm really sorry about this, but I loved Titanic, and saw it four times in the cinema when it was first released.

    Looking back on it now, I'm quite embarrassed.

    I feel dirty now because I still love Titanic.

    I also did not like either Saw though, despite all my friends swearing they are the best thing EVAR!!!1!!!. Both movies came off like an hour and a half rock music video to me, and the direction of it kind of...bothers me.

    I don't think they're bad, I just don't think they're, like, awesome either.

    Only one I'm going to have to agree with are all the scary movies you mentioned and Brokeback Mountain. I expected Brokeback Mountain to be spectacular, but I found it to be very slow paced and boring and there wasn't nothing happy about it. It was one down fall after the other, they fight because they don't know when they'll see eachother next, they both marry and can't be together, then one of them dies.

    The Shining was a great blend of everything in my opinion, the movie being slow paced helped us see Jack slowly go insane, which I thought was genius.
