In a similar vein, the 2008 remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still, with Keanu Reeves. Lots of actors I like making an unforgivably tedious and incoherent sci fi drama.

I spent the entire film wishing Kubrick had just fucking done it himself and not handed it over to Spielberg.Sean Hayden wrote: ↑Thu May 24, 2018 9:37 pmA.I. this could be the worst movie I've ever seen. It seemed like it was dreamt up while editing. --avoid it
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

Hereditary --it's a good movie, and I fucking hated it anyway.

Re: Movies of the awful kind we've looked upon
This might be controversial because I've heard some people talking about it like it's a cult classic, - but I've just rewatched John Carpenter's The Thing, possibly for the first time since I was a kid, or certainly long enough ago that I couldn't quite remember how it ended, - so I thought it would at least keep some level of tension. But while I can forgive the ageing of the special effects, and in fact the monster design was as delightfully gruesome as I remembered it, the plot and character development was tedious and frustrating. For a team of Antarctic research scientists they had no concept of quarantine procedures or any ability to work as a coordinated team. The unrealistic stupidity of the characters totally broke the suspension of disbelief. It's something that's quite common in horror movies, where the characters needlessly get themselves in trouble, but it's particularly frustrating when they are up against something that could still kill them even if they did everything they reasonably would to prevent it.
[Disclaimer - if this is comes across like I think I know what I'm talking about, I want to make it clear that I don't. I'm just trying to get my thoughts down]

Re: Movies of the awful kind we've looked upon
Gorgeous animation. Shit film.
Anyway, I've watched several really awful movies and was going to mention them in this thread, bit it seems I've forgotten them. Which I suppose is a good thing, actually.

Why was i not warned that "G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Who Fucking Cares" was a terrible movie?
