OPO, so what was the worst film you ever saw?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9vL7nYT1VY

U-Turn is profoundly ugly and nasty but I remember it being pretty good, but it was a long time ago I saw it.

on a board with above-average levels of "the pictures are not on trial" i think we may have hit peak "the pictures are not on trial"

I genuinely did not like Drive. Two character-free blonds staring at each other over stylised 80s music for two hours and I just don't get why that's supposed to be good?

Felt the same way about it pretty much but no way is it the worst movie. Vacuous but entertaining at least. Opening scene and music throughout was great.

at the time I felt like that whole aesthetic had been well and truly ploughed through in other areas of pop culture and Drive was playing catch-up. It was just a really uninteresting film and I was surprised at how impressed people were with it. Maybe not the worst film, but definitely the most perplexing and disappointing.

the only film I've walked out of was Pineapple Express, and I had quite enjoyed some of Apatow's comedies up until then. It's hard to get stoner movies that bad but he pulled it off

Clerks two, right, is better than clerks

oh god, no

this movie Lazer Team that was a Youtube film or something that made it to the big screen in select theatres.

idk wtf it was going for but it missed wildly

Oh, you know what was fucking terrible? Track 29.

I always used to say this was the worst film I'd ever seen but that was years and years ago and I'm sure I've seen many worse since, I still think Gary Oldman is absolutely fucking dreadful and indefensible though. I think the last film I hated with a vengeance was "Grand Budapest Hotel" but it's not even close to being the worst film I've ever seen tbf.

oh, Thinner as well

i liked u-turn! maybe i was drunk. it had j-lo in it, right? say no more.

I watched it on mushrooms and liked it afaicr. Other mushroom movies were "Elf" (wtf, why?!?!??), "Guns of San Sebastian" (a faux Spaghetti Western, which we found hilarious), that Before Sunrise or Beyond Sunset or whatever thing w/ Julie Delpy, a film called "Once a Thief" with Alain Delon as some sort of Croatian and Van Heflin playing his brother (?!?!?) or was it Jack Palance? Anyway Ann-Margret was in it too.... er... what are we talking about again?

I watched thinner last night

The purge deserves mention

Death in Sarajevo won the Jury Grand Prix at Berlin, and has been said to be Altman-like, but it's pure crap. A lot of different stories, but none of them interesting, and then when they begin to fit together it's completely pointless. That's perhaps the worst film I've seen since The Congress, which I've already mentioned several times in this thread...

Of course, that's not true. I watched Suicide Squad. But you all know how crap that is.

Mad Dog Time (aka Trigger Happy) is pretty bad considering the cast: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116953/

^ One of my favorite bad movies, seen it a dozen times. Probably less entertaining when you're sober tbh.

Had to watch because Diane Lane.

boondock saints

Burt Reynolds ...
'Wacky' Jacky Jackson

oh, Thinner as well

Ah ha ha. Emulating that lead actor's weird mugging throughout the movie is one of my imitations that's guaranteed to get a laugh out of my sister (alongside Judge Reinhold's expressions of childlike whimsical wonder in Vice Versa, the weird kid who played Omri in Indian in the Cupboard, and the doubly weird kid who played the younger brother in Teen Witch).

Was that dude ever in anything else? He is fascinatingly bad. They might as well have just cast Stephen King.

boondock saints is genuinely a profoundly awful movie on every level but without it we wouldn't have the accompanying documentary overnight which goes a long way to redeeming it. troy duffy is way more entertaining in front of the camera

Clerks two, right, is better than clerks

being punched in the neck, right, is better than being punched in the kidney

i watched death wish 3 for the first time recently and i was taken aback by how batshit and poisonous its portrayal of inner-city life was

michael winner in 'being a right-wing shithead' shocker i know, but it ended up bothering me for days afterwards, possibly because it made me wonder exactly how much of donald trump's thinking about crime is shaped by similarly deranged 80s action movies

The Purge was great, wtf

Was that dude ever in anything else?

He co-starred in Hal Hartley's No Such Thing!

worst movie i ever saw was "Get Hard" which played at the drive-in just before "Fury Road". the last thing a world needs is a movie sympathizing with rich criminals that are so afraid of going to prison they become a racist stereotype and then at the end of the day they don't have to go to prison bc lol of course not they are rich.

which brings me to the cat in the hat.

oof, the heavy artillery

"Cat in the Hat" is not a film, it is a heroin withdrawl nightmare of the genie from Aladdin.

I'm blaming this thread for my dream last night in which I was asked to name Englands worst ever striker

bomber harris iirc
