Please post your most terrible movie moment here:
Anakin's sand, skin and softness analogy in SW:AOTC.
I mean, how the hell can you even hope to get some with THAT line?

When my copy of Akira broke last night...I almost cried.
P.S. Sorry this wasn't really with the topic.
The Japanese have invaded China and are terrorizing a community. In one scene they have one man tied up and are coercing another man to torture him.
"Now you must flay him!"
"No, I won't do it!"
"Yes you will! Grin and bear it!"
--Red Sorghum
The spirit of the scene wasn't bad, it was the choice of idiom in the translation that ruined it.![]()

My worst movie moment was when I decided to go and see The One. I demanded my money back. I haven't even thought of doing that before, ever.
#5
the horrid bookend cemetary scenes in saving private ryan comes to mind.
#7
ST:Nemesis when Data sings
Anything after they decided to launch this really big ship called Titanic
#9
watching jeepers creepers, that movie was just not scary, just wrong...
data singing isnt that bad :P
I never saw Nemesis, but Data singing in Insurrection was painful. Come to think of it, that whole movie was painful.

When the Elves arrived at Helm's deep in TTT, I almost stood up and screamed 'NOOOOOOOOO!!! YOU BASTARDS!!!'
I got over it though.

A few:
- Being in empty theater with girlfriend watching bulletproof monk while she's PMSy.
- Finding myself watching the matrix where the whole audience has laser pointers. There were like 50 of them up there in the best fight scenes.
- Seeing 'Freddy Got Fingered' with my friend who tends to repeat things over and over he hears in a movie.
My friend: DADDY WOULD YOU LIKE SOME SAUSAGE.....DADDY WOULD YOU LIKE SOME SAU SA GES....DADDY WOULD YOU LIKE SOME DADDY WOULD YOU LIKE SOME DADDY WOULD YOU LIKE SOME SAUSAGE!
My Math teacher: Ahem.....yes.....leave.
- Seeing Chris Rock destroy any of my respect for him in 'Head of State'.
- 'Having someone tell me Wolverine dies in X-Men 2, getting relieve when he doesn't, and then being pulled terribly out of that relief at the end of the movie when someone else dies'.
i saw spice girls the movie in the cinema, i can't think of anything worse

There was a point in Nemesis which made me want to gouge my eyes, no my brain out... When someone referred to the alien version of the wedding ceremony which involved Riker getting naked. The thought still haunts me to this day. Thank god that guy took over the Romulan Empire...
#15
What was so bad about Data singing in Nemesis? Yeah, when he started I was like, "Oh crap, please god no," but once the music started he was actually pretty good.
And...er...what was so bad about The One? It was no more contrived than The Matrix, and the special effects and fight scenes were arguably better.
I can't think of a worst movie moment at this point, but most ironic would have to be watching Moulin Rouge with my girlfriend, enjoying it, and then discovering that the only other male at my work who didn't think it was a steaming pile of crap...was gay.
How is that ironic?
an unnamed russian movie:
there was a vampire rising out of the tomb, it could not get out for some reason, instead of stop shooting and start over, the director ...
2 policeman appeared out of nowhere, pulled the vampire out of the tomb, and ran away ...
talking about lack of funds.

Worst movie moments?
Probably paying to see either of the LOTR films followed closely by the utterly disappointing ending to Signs.
braindead. the lawnmower scene.
not in content of films: sitting near a woman plainly masturbating in the cinema watching xmen, the first one. same row, a few empty seats apart. her head back, shifting about, with a rhythmically expanding crotch in the darkness and the occasional intake of breath. i dont know what turned her on so much. she was pretty fit so i wasnt exactly disgusted, but it was still embarassing because i just knew everyone around had noticed and i was so near.
Liar Liar,
When the kid says: "My teacher says real beuty is on the inside."
Carry replies: "Well, thats just somthing ugly people says."
For another half hour i was just like "You just said that....Thats so true and so wrong at the same time":jaw:
When I went to see "I am Sam."
*barf*

Squid: a lot of people have thought I was gay. I was watching it with my gf. The only person at work who liked it was gay...
Arg, you had to be there \:

Star Wars episode 2, when Anakin and Amidalapalooza were necking in the meadow.
Lucas has never tried too hard to avoid the cliche, but that "love scene" was so wooden and predictable, I gritted my teeth - "Hey, who turned the film over to Disney, and substituted manniquins for the actors?"
Second place - anytime Anakin said anything. He was horribly scripted, miscast, or both, although Ami-dalai-lama is som'tin else to look at. Right, Panth?![]()

Natalie Portman, from what I've seen of her in other movies, is a fairly competent actor.
Unfortunately, her chances at making the gibberish that Lucas calls "writing" seeming realistic or emotional are about as good as my chances of winning a poetry competition by submitting an IRC log.
I am firmly convinced that most professional actors would give a reasonably satisfying performance if they were given the chance to with an excellent, believable character. However, rarely does an actor get such an opportunity. Natalie Portman isn't getting best atress anytime soon, but she's not completely bull.
I must admit, Lucas has really driven a coffin into his own franchise. I watch them merely because I want to find out what happens before, plotwise and storywise. The quality of the movies... leaves PLENTY to be desired. I mean honestly, I liked Jar Jar far better than Anakin, I don't care which movie.
Pearl Harbor had the most retarded story I have ever seen. Episode 1 was in some ways more enjoyable than Episode 2. Episode 2 had some nice elements, but anything with Anakin and Padme was trash, honestly. I'm convinced Lucas has lost touch with the English language. If that's what he calls silver screen dialogue, I don't want to know what his daily speech is.

Okay, enough of that, Retro. Back on topic.

lucas went down the wrong fork when working with anakin's actor and in Ep:2
i think h should wath the trilogy one more time.
worst movie moments: forced to watch titanic. :yech:
#28
I tried to avoid watching but still caught fragments of Merlin yesterday. The Expanded DVD, no less. Four hours of crap.
#29
Watching DareDevil when my fever was just going away. I walked out with the fever in full force once again, plus nausea, plus anger at losing a good $10, and pure disgust.

Supernova. The whole movie was the bad moment, but the ending has so much crap condensed into it it's a disaster of its own.
"She'll be back" is hilarious!
Jurassic Park 3 is entirely a lame movie. No story. Almost wanted them to die.
#34
I presume you lot are talking about Terminator 3. Thanks for the heads up, I'll give that a miss when it comes out here...
That movie with John Travolta as a member of giant alien invaders that take over the earth and make humans as slaves and vermin....actually don't tell me the name its a blessing I have forgotton it
Barbarians , covered with warpaint and scream battlecries.....while flying a jumpjet![]()
#36
That would be "Battlefield: Earth."sorry Asno.
-- Retro
Heheh... for a while, (actually, right when it opened) I was actually interested in Battlefield Earth. I should've gone to see it. It's apparently a perfect example of how craptacular movies can get!![]()
#38
I hate to say it, but one part in Aliens just made me groan out loud.
The highly trained, well-equipped Colonial Marines are ordered to walk into a hostile situation without any ammo. And they do it. The movie was great, and they obviously had to kill off all those extra guys somehow, but come on.
And of course, Starship Troopers. Would you like to hear more?
the worst movie moment i had was when a tornado was headed right towards me and they got on the loudspeakers to tell us to find shelter and everyone thought it was part of hte movie, cuz the speaker sounded alot like part of the movie.
but the part where data sings in star trek was almost as bad
#40
I actually thought Starship Troopers was a great movie. About 10 minutes into it, I classed its level of farce content right up there with Big Trouble in Little China, and shut my brain completely off, to totally enjoy the rest.
-- Retro
Battlefield Earth Is GREAT!! I watch it peridicly to give me a perspective of how sticking to a story no matter how unrealistic it is or whi it was written By *ahem* L. Ron Hubbard, doesnt pay off
Any Rush Hour Movie anything Directed By Spike Lee Or has Martin Lawrence in It I will Run away from screaming and yelling.
I Personaly Like Most Cheesey Sci- Fi Movies Like Starship Troopers, The Fith Element and SuchYou don't have to think and you can enjoy a Pure movie BS!

#43
Well I still watched ST about 6 times after it came out on video - DAMN those bugs are awesome! Same thing for Aliens when I discovered it.
But it was definately a 'bad' moment when I started to think about the movies instead of just enjoying them. Thinking really ruins things.
#44
Unbreakable was awful. I nearly walked out before the thing had actually ended, and I rarely consider something bad enough to warrant not using my full $8![]()
Oh, that movie "Evolution" was like a root canal without Novicane, too. It was funny, for the first ten minutes or so. It then proceeded to get stupid.

What exactly was so bad about Unbreakable? Sure, it wasn't brilliant, but I didn't think it deserved to be qualified as crap.
Evolution was'nt someting I'd want to spend a huge amount of money on but it was funny - I mean its just plain silly... its not suposed to be seriousOriginally posted by TheGeneral

Funny you mention Novocaine I once saw a movie of the same name and would recomend geeting some of the afformentioned anesthetic if your going to watch it.
I've seen a lot of movies that just made me wonder - who gave these people money?
Oh and don't get me started about p [i] the blair witch project.... [i/] This thing was a total ripoff... lets see send 4 typeseted movie teenagers into a wooddy area with a handy cam and have them overact and a wothless climax....
Most horror movies today are just plain dumb... you have some people who are none to bright.... thow in the fact that for some reason thier trapped in said location.... thow in specal effects behind scared personand cue music.

i'm scared already :chicken:Most horror movies today are just plain dumb... you have some people who are none to bright.... thow in the fact that for some reason thier trapped in said location.... thow in specal effects behind scared person and cue music.
Dammit, not again!

worst movie moment evar: the orgy in Matrix: Reloaded.
I went to daredevil, and I had a good time. Why? because afterward my two and a half hour detention hall was fun!
When I saw the Episode 2 love scene, I was disgusted until my friend turned and went "the hills are alive, with the sound of music..." at which I cramped I was laughing so hard...
But worst ever.... hard to say... any one of the total crap artsy movies my last girlfriend convinced me to go to... I have an open mind, but I was literally looking for a pistol to shoot myself with...

Worst movie moment. Well there are several. But one was in Con Air. Nick Cage gets shot in the arm when he is going to beat the crap out of Sirus the Virus (so scary a name) and he did not even flinch.
Man O Man give me a break.
Another one (and in fact the whole movie is awful) is where Steven Segal is some sort of Eskimo working on oil rigs in Alaska. I do not want to remember anything in particular, but the whole movie just sucked big donkey’s balls. Michael Caine is in it as well. Hopefully nobody else will remember the name of the movie so I will not have to go and get a lobotomy to make me forget ever watching it.
Just for the record I think that at least ST:AOTC and Starship Troopers are kinda good. However as Retro said, you do need to turn off at least some part of your brain while watching.
Oh and one other crap part of a movie. MI2, when Cruise and the bad guy are racing toward one another at about 9 million miles an hour each on a motor cycle. They then hop off and start kicking the crap out of each other in mid-air……….. Arghhhhhhhh I need to puke.
The above are just some that spring to mind. There are a whole load others. Some of the scenes from movies like "Not without my baby" and other crap that are simply not worth mentioning as I would be here for about 10 years.
Edit for absolutely crap syntax, grammar and a multitude of other reasons. Go I really need to read before I post. Apologies to any of you word Nazis out there.
