NAME A FILM YOU ABSOLUTELY DESPISE AND I WILL TELL YOU SOMETHING I LIKED ABOUT IT....

Just for fun for my sake (name them off and then eight hours from now when I get off work I’ll start responding) to avoid boredom just as much as it’s a way of showing how even the worst can have some value of some kind. (Maybe?)

CHICAGO — Rob Marshall’s Oscar-winner.

300 — Zack Snyder’s war-mongering fantasia.

COLD MOUNTAIN — Anthony Minghella’s piece of Oscar-bait.

Well a lot of people like this film, but I do not. The Bad Lieutenant.

A few more for fun: Leaving Las Vegas, Caravaggio (Derek Jarman), The Devil Wears Prada, Moulin Rouge (Baz Luhrman)

I’m sure you can find redeeming qualities about all of them, but you won’t convince me to watch any of them again (well, if you gave me a large sum of money I might reconsider).

Reese, it’s pretty easy to find something of value in anything if you try hard enough. Even films i give 1 stars to probably have something.

Most of the films listed here are easy to defend i think, at least to a certain level.

Batman and Robin, for example, while being a bad film, has, imo, a few solid camp style performances in it from Uma Thurman, and a cool kitschy production design that is both giddy and nauseuting and borderline hypnotic in its extreme ugliness.

^ That’s a real title? HA HA HA

I could think of a lot of substitute words for “Arm.” God what a funny title.

@odilonv​ert – I think you have an idea for a new reality show in which a demented rich guy gets unsuspecting people to view the film that will drive them crazy for his amusement. If they “survive” they will be rewarded with money.

In my case, it will be a deadly game of how many 1970s cliches will drive me out of my mind as I am forced to view the ICE STORM….

Please no more. No Key Parties. I get it, it was a time of great malaise…….I don’t need more images of the crumbling Nixon administration…..

You have to see it to believe it. It is an Italian 70s crime movie that makes Plan 9 seem like 2001.

Francisco — it figures it’s Italian. I mean, I’m half Italian but oh my God, they make some unintentionally funny stuff.

Pierre, I was thinking more like Indecent (Movie) Proposal… lol

In fact, that would be a great title for this thread – Indecent Movie Proposal.
