Movies the world didn't need.

Tom hanks in the hijacked ship movie
Tom hanks in the hudson river plane movie
Marky mark vs the boston bombers
Benghazi 2 electric bugaloo
One I'm forgetting because it was so horrible.


Seriously, why the golly do they make these shitty movies?

Titanic.  Four hours of suppressing the urge to hurl loaves of white bread at the screen.  General anaesthesia would have helped me get through it.

Malcolm X.  Eyes Wide Shut.  I had to fast forward through both of them.  Thank god for videos.

I haven't seen anything terrible lately. I'm advised that Prometheus sucks, but I'm curious about it for some reason.  Maybe it's because I tend to like Wigglely Scott.

Prometheus for sure, since Alien requires no precursor, but while I would say I do not enjoy the films you listed, they were in fact movies, and one can respect the work that went into them.

Prometheus was a really odd film for me: I thoroughly enjoyed it until I came home and thought about it: the more I thought, the less I understood, until eventually I concluded that it was poo.

It helps if you don't consider it as a prequel.

I'm glad you said that as I always thought it was a little shite but didn't want to offend you.

Now all I need to to do is bemoan macs.

j/k

Personally 2016 was a poor year.
Plenty of movies should not have been made.
I am struggling to name a few I loved/hated in fact as most just melted into each other. :-[

I thought The Legend of Tarzan was a complete waste of time and money.

I feel your pain.

Which makes me glad you didn't actually stab yourself.

I watched Twilight out of curiosity.  It was teen girl stupid.  What a courtly vampire.  If you're going to love a bad boy, at least make sure he treats you right.  I think that was the lesson of the film.  It could have been worse.

Not sure what those ^ links are about as they give me nothing but a blank page.

I almost edited it to "de-linkify" it but figured people would just cut and paste anyway.  I normally trust everyone who posts here but a post with not comment for context, displaying only a couple of obfuscated Google redirect links, always pushes my "paranoia" button.
