Dumbest. Movie. Ever.

There have been some heated arguments about what sort of spellcaster Gandalf is, and what level.

Mostly because he doesn't seem to actually cast any spells at all. Except maybe Light.

A rather eccentric Paladin, maybe?

But at least KJ has the (flimsy) excuse of being aimed at the 7-12 year old set, where the standards for humor are quite low.

Greatest movie ever made.

[Japher]

I saw the D&D movie and I didn't think is what that bad... at least it was entertaining.

Worst Movie(s) Ever:

Beethoven - stupid dog

A Time To Kill - and I generally like Grisham movies, but I am sorry McConnahaya lost his accent half way through the movie!

The one with Shaq as a genie

Deep Impact - duh

Anything produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Directed by Micheal Bay - I will still watch them, but man they suck

Punisher the Movie

He-man

man, I could go on and on...

Best Movie(s) Ever that still sucked: The Evil Dead trilogy, Ice Pirates, and the Mad Max movies

[Kramerman]

Worst movie in recent memory... The Transporter...ilk!

My friend was anticipatiing its release for like 2 months, adn quoted me all the great reviews it got. gah. the only reason why i didnt walk out was because my friends and I were having such a great time making fun of it. Then after the movie we went to an all-night diner down the street for a midnight snack and sat there for a couple hours more making more fun of it. That actually made seeing the movie worth it.

Worst double feature I ever went to: "The Island of Doctor Moreau" and "Crow 2"

The both sucked, but they were a good laugh.

I am currently on my fifth attempt at reading The Lord of the Rings. In fact, LotR was the last thing I bought when I left Britain - I got a nice big fat book and decided to read it at last.

I can't make it past the first 100 pages or so. I'm a D&D fan and I consider myself to be fairly amenable to most fantasy (I read P N Elrod and Alan Dean Foster's Spellsinger novels, to name a few) but LotR is surprisingly impenetrable.

I've been told by friends that it picks up later and all the pieces fall together. But I'm afraid I've fallen victim to Dracula syndrome, where the genre that follows a piece of work eclipses it by changing audience demands thereof.

(Dracula started the vampire genre, but if you look at the best grossing vampire movies and books out there today, they are entire orders of complexity higher than Bram Stoker's creation.)

I am adamant that I will not watch the LotR films until I have read the book. This may very well mean never.

Guys! Guys! Whottsa matta yoo? The whole LOTR trilogy only takes a weekend to read!

While yes, the premise of "The Core" seems pretty shaky, I'd like to pint out that the spinning core generate's the earth's magnetic belt, which acts like a shield against cosmic radiation. I'd also like to point out that there is evidence that the spinning core has actually reversed itself several times in the history of the earth, so who knows, maybe it can stop. estarting it would be a whole different proposition. I'd think that it would take prodigious amounts of eneergy.

Most Steven Siegal movies are pretty bad. I particularily disliked the one about terrorists hijacking a US battleship.

I thought that "Signs" was awful. I guess that Shymalan was going for a "Blair Witch Hunt" effect, but what he got was something that seemed more like a 1950s "B" movie with actors who didn't seem to understand their lines and couldn't figure out how to deliver them. I partcularily thought the part about how the rescue squad waited to extract Mel Gibson's character's wife from the tree because she was cut in half and would die as soon as they did so was especially lame.

Starship Troopers were also terrible. One National Guardmen said that his company could wipe out all those "advanced" mobile infantry in the movie within 15 minutes. And the plot of Buenos Aires destroyed by an Asteroid sent by the Bugs is dumber than the Armageddon and the Core combined.

Don't mention that film to me. I am usually quite tolerant of stupid plots, but this one just annoyed me on every level possible, and not just the plot

Another film that made me cringe: Evolution...for f**ks sake, killing aliens with anti-dandruff shampoo and the most ridiculous product placement ever...I don't care if it was supposed to be ironic - it was just plain crap!

Its corrupting our children!

I would note that an earthquake machine could not possibly make a liquid core stop spinning. Further, the world wouldn't end if the core ceased to spin. It would resume spinning, even if it did somehow stop. Maybe digital technology would go on the fritz, but... argghhh, false science... sucking the intelligence from society... Hey, now THAT could make a good horror\apocolapse movie that is actually based in reality!

[HazieDaVampire]

THIS IS INSANE! WHAT ARE THEY THINKING!

AND IF THE CORE SPINS ANOTHER WAY, WON'T THE CRAFT BE SPLIT IN TWO WHEN IT TRYS TO PASS THROUGH (LIKE TRYING TO JAM YOUR ARM THROUGH A HOLE IN A WALL WHILE ON A LIFT/ELEVATOR!)

If i ever get famus or run into tons of money, i'd fund that film! It could turn people into sort of zomies!

"Argh, people who point at things can kill them, die die die"

How come the main character decides on the element in the anti-dandruff shampoo as the one that will kill the aliens? He's like..."Hmm The aliens are Nitrogen based organisms...well, humans are carbon based so if we go down the periodic table twice and then right we come to Arsenic which kills us. So if we go down twice and to the right we come to Selenium so that must kill the monsters!"

What the heck??? Every element on the periodic table could potentially kill a human in the right dosage. Neon, Radium hell even Selenium. In fact things like Mercury could probably even kill humans in a lower dosage than Arsenic. Seems like a pretty big gamble to take.
