hoorta Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Now bringing up all-time box office flops, or movies no one else has ever hear of is permissible, but I'd prefer the critically acclaimed stuff that turns your stomach. I posted it in another thread- So Annie Hall, Last Picture Show, Pulp Fiction, Fight Club, The Piano, Howard's End. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosar_For_President Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Really? Pulp Fiction is my single most favorite move. Yea the English Patient was way better, NOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoorta Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Really? Pulp Fiction is my single most favorite move. Yea the English Patient was way better, NOT. Really, just too plain weird. FWIW Last Picture Show is is one of my best friends favorites- go figure. Another one crossed my just mind- Gangs of New York. Yeah, chick flicks don't do much for me either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gangs of NY disappointed me as it was billed as "the Irish Godfather" but as for Howards End or the Piano or English Patient, they just were'nt fun though I thought they were of high calibre. Like a lot of Merchant Ivory flicks. Annie Hall is in my top 10 and Pulp is pretty high though not in sacred territory. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a huge Reservoir Dogs fan, really anything Tarantino. I have never seen the Last Picture Show. Gangs of New York was a great movie. I haven't seen a Scorsese film I didn't like.

So I have no ax to grind with Tarantino- there's just some movies that don't do anything for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballpeen Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 People seemed to love Star Wars and Lord of the Rings movies. I fell asleep in the first of each and never saw any of the others...thought they were boorish at best...don't tell me the second of each was the best. Nothing could make me even start to watch them unless I was stuck on a 10 hour airline flight to Hawaii ......in which case I might actually be happy because no doubt I would be able to catch some zzzzzz's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I loved Tolkein's trilogy in the service. Loved the books. Loved the Star Wars movies. they were fun. But the Lord of the Rings movies? Extremely, profoundly? BORING. And way, way, way too LONG at being BORING. I was disgusted, and read a book while the stupid things went on and on, just so I could finish them up, and return the dvd's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
