[Richctdude]

any movie with someone in the cast of saturday night live after 1995

[Darkseid]

[HbgDon]

Lord of the Rings. All three of them. Three of the most boring movies I have ever wasted my time on.

[Quiet Reflections]

I second that and I hate any movie that seth rogan has anything to do with

[JenniferParisHusband]

Forrest Gump, and Castaway. I normally like Hanks, but both of those movies annoy the living hell out of me.

[Prospero]

Generally the sort of films I despise are those cynically produced by the Hollywood machine simply to make money - with no concern whatsoever for their value beyond the bottom line. So poor remakes of great films figure high on the list.

I also find repugnant the gratuitously violent torture horror genre, splatter films and dumb vampire or other horror films directed at the teenage market.

Essentially dumb films generally. But as i say hate is too strong s word for films. Save that for worthier targets.

[Willie Escalade]

Tyler Perry movies that show brothers as women hating asshole abusers...

[TSMichelleAustin]

2nd that! I hate anything sci-fi or horror movies to do with ghost or supernatural!

[TSMichelleAustin]

I agree. Also any flick with Jennifer Lopez.

[marissaaz]

I HATE anything by woddy allen,spike lee,barbra streisand, jane fonda and haneane garofalo (except mystery men)

[Dino Velvet]

Agreed there. I liked Woody Allen up until he made Annie Hall. Hated that flick. No more Bananas, Sleeper, Take The Money And Run, etc...

[hippifried]

Armageddon. (should have been a cartoon)
Most cliche' dumps in general.
Sarah Jessica Parker!
Remakes for the sake of not having to think up something original.

[Dino Velvet]

Sarah Jessica Parker!

I try really hard to hate Sarah Jessica Parker. She's not attractive and works in projects that women I date seem to enjoy but I detest. She then goes on Leno's couch and is extremely nice and I can't hate her even though I'm fascinated with a wart on her face that puts anything of Lemmy's to shame. Her husband, Mathew Broderick, is boring like watching paint dry.

[Louie Damazo]

Keanus Reaves stuff. He was ok in MATRIX but try remember CONSTANTINE (worst comics movie EVER) and an old one that if u mention in his presence u make him piss off - JONNY MINEMONIC (FUCKING TERRIBLE)

[Erika1487]

My ex fiancee made me watch this grabarge one evening then wanted to watch the damn thing agian! I got pissed off and slept on the floor with pillows over my head just so I would not listen to Ms Fonda for another 2hrs!!

even pirates of the Caribbean,newsies,remember the titans,Thor,iron man(anything Marvel is now disney),Tron,national treasure, Sky high? there are a ton of disney movies that aren't mushy. You are right that most aren't good but saying it is because they are all mushy is silly.

[MdR Dave]

I dislike "A Mighty Wind" and any project that brings that group together. I just don't think they're funny, and I don't find them to be as smart as they obviously think they are. I find them patronizing at best.

I'll never forgive Parker Posey for getting involved with them.

[Odelay]

Poorly made ancient war type movies. Walked out of the movie Troy. Wouldn't have ever gone to 300 but the group I was with was insistent we see that movie. What a waste of time.

[TSCURIOUS]

Roadhouse

[Dino Velvet]

she makes me want to chop her up with a chain saw:twisted:

Send her a bill afterward for facial improvement.

Another horseface like Julia Roberts.

[alyssaluxor]

action films ewww yuck!!!
i like quality made war films though

[Nivek]

I hate Time period dramas, Anything with powdered wigs and bad accents. Not recently impressed with anything the US/Hollywood unoriginality machine has crapped out lately either.

[alpha2117]

Sean Penn films after Fast Times ... that guy always makes these drawn out dramas full of angst and utterly devoid of any true sense of humanity for me.

[daltx_m]

ANYthing with Leonardo DeCrapio

[marissaaz]

anything modern done B & W or filmed all dark and artsy ...i dident spend all this $$$ on a bigol hd tv to watch b&w

also pretty much considered a "film" or "cinema" ilike movies

[Prospero]

Films made for stupid people

[Dino Velvet]

All kinda American War and Italian Horror Movies were shot in your country. Growing up you must've feared being hit with napalm or devoured by zombies. When you look past the fog it's just Francis Ford Coppola or Bruno Mattei waving around a bullhorn. Hearts of Darkness is a fascinating documentary about the making of Apocalypse Now.

[Quiet Reflections]

Almost all movies marketed towards kids are terrible

[Tina Francis]

...anything with Robin Williams...why?...because the greatest natural, improvisational comedic talent of the post-war generation was wasted on a string of sentimental, cloying, studio ordered movies that no one will even remember 20 years from now...put a bunch of kids in front of the tube and plug in a W.C. Fields flick...the shrieks of laughter will prove my point..."The Bank Dick"...LOL..!!

[NatashaLover]

Mission Impossible 4!!
It sucks, I was falling sleep!

Cant wait to go see Underworld!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rock2

[Bobby Domino]

90% of the movies being made in the last decade. Anything where CGi dominates the story.
Not much of a fantasy fan, either - Lord of the Rings (I enjoyed the 1978 version, however), Harry Potter, the last 6 Star Wars or however many George Lucas has recently made.

[Dino Velvet]

mmmmm interesting... I thought I was there with you. :yayo: :):)

[Stavros]

I saw Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol in the London IMAX, a fantastic experience and the only way to see the film I think, which otherwise is the usual loony-wants-to-nuke-the-world-only-Cruise-can-save-us. IMAX is definitely worth the admission fee, the scene in Dubai in particular. As long as you don't take the film seriously.

With regard to Genres:

Animals: I avoid films like National Velvet, Seabiscuit, Any Which Way But Loose because animals are a part of the film, doesn't work for me.

Vampires: vampire films are fundamentally films that celebrate the hatred of women, and the importance of a religious faith that relegates women to the status of breeding machines while elevating men to the status of saviour; or they are symbolic devices for creating an otherness about people which could be done more intelligently a hundred other ways. There are other vehicles for getting women to shed their clothes, its called porn.

Horror Films: I don't understand this genre, in either literature or film -I understand horror as part of the invention of the devil and hell and the medieval discourse in which human behaviour was expected to conform to whatever the Holy Roman Empire dictated, or be condemned to hell -there are various murals in English churches made to frighten people this way; in 2011 its just an excuse to show people being subjected to sickening acts of violence -having seen enough of the real thing in a London hospital years ago, I have no desire to indulge the sick fantasy of some third-rate director or the equally sick people who pay to see this drivel. If this is your idea of entertainment, get some therapy.

i hate any film that the film critics love because i know it's going to suck

[bassman2546]

For me, I think this thread would be easier to list movies that I like. Too many that I hate. Hollywood has lost all creativity. Why? The front runner to the Oscars Best Picture is a silent film, The Artist. I thought going back and rejuvenating slasher films and comic books was a cop out. This is ridiculous.

[Quiet Reflections]

Anything that has to do with religion

In literature, horror done right can be quite entertaining (Poe, duMaupassant, Gogol, Lovecraft). Horror in film is quite another thing. Some movies - The Descent comes to mind - use the premise of something horrible to explore relationships, character etc. But I think many - like The Human Centipede - are made to indulge sick fantasies and to feed the equally sick fantasies of the people who watch them. Not that I'm judging anyone ;)

Horror not only fills my needs and addiction for horror but porn and comedy as well.

i love a good horror film especially when a bimbo chick is attacked by a monster ,vampire,psycho and she is running around with her tits out

[Dino Velvet]

If I ever am allowed to make a Horror Movie the sluttiest girl will be the last one standing. What does a virginal, sheltered, goody 2 shoes know about surviving the attack from a maniac in the woods? She should be butchered while the opening credits roll.

[robertlouis]

Films made for stupid people

So about 98% of them in that case? Someone gave me Mark Kermode's The Good, The Bad and The Multiplex for Christmas which I am enjoying immensely as much for his curmudgeonly commentary on all things blockbuster and the sheer misery of the multiplex experience as anything else, but what he says about the money-driven values of Hollywood nails all that's wrong with commercial cinema.

[theone1982]

Just trowing it out there, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is pretty damn good.

[Quiet Reflections]

I probably go to the movies about 2-3 times a year. I agree with much of what you are saying. Most of what I watch is from the 1970s which was a more honest era of film.

Many who go into art for money instead of the thrill of creating end up with neither money nor creation.

[theone1982]

Which one?

The David Fincher one.

[Dino Velvet]

The David Fincher one.

See the Swedish one if you haven't. Scandinavia has been on a roll making good films. Good Horror too.

[Infern0]

Shitty horror films, the likes of "Saw", "Hostel", you know the type.

A disgrace to visual media imo, just no point to their existance, no originality, shit acting, shit writing, shit everything.

totally unoriginal tripe that talentless cunts like eli roth keep shitting into the open mouths of the ignorant.

Trash.

[theone1982]

See the Swedish one if you haven't. Scandinavia has been on a roll making good films. Good Horror too.

I'm definitely interested in seeing that one now, yeah. I'm a big David Fincher fan, I think Alien 3 is criminally underrated, even though Fincher himself has distanced himself from it.

[Quiet Reflections]

Any movie that has the actors say the movies title or tagline during the film

[Dino Velvet]

I've rewatched Alien 3 over and over again hoping to get a different and better experience but never could get into it. Alien and Aliens are about as good as Horror/Sci-Fi gets. Event Horizon is worth seeing if you like this type of film.

I like the symbolism at the end of 3 when she falls into the fire and the alien pops out of her chest. I also like when Lance Henriksen yells "I'm not a robot!" for some reason I just find that really funny. Event Horizon is great, hell in space!:)

Horror films, when done correctly don't require any gore at all. I make no apology for Saw and its ilk. Good horror builds a sense of suspense and dread and actually frightens you, it doesn't (necessarily) gross you out. Dino mentioned Event Horizon, great flick. The Paranormal Activity series are cheap, somewhat gimmicky but effective. Humans are the only species that enjoys spicy food and I would bet the only species that enjoys being frightened and for similar reasons. So embrace your humanity and get the shit scared out of you now and then.

Oh and vampire movies do more than violate women, they explore the ancient eros-thanatos connection. That's why they're still part of the public consciousness and always will be.

On the original question: I hate these new holiday "all-star" romantic comedies like New Year's Eve and Valentine's Day. This is how little regard the public is given: "We don't need a plot, just a bunch semi-recognizable moderately attractive people and a holiday and people will pay to see it!"

FFS, America, have a little self-respect.

Event Horizon is my favorite movie of the genre. Hands down. What can I say? I love Sam Neil. He's handsome. ;)

And Pre-Matrix Fishburne is always cool, too. My only complaint was its resemblance to Sphere.

Sam Neill was evil too. I thought he was also good in Omen III: The Final Conflict.
