Harry Potter, so full of junk. :yuck: No offense to the fans reading this, but HP is 0 in my book.

Just curious. No offense intended.


I totally agree with Eru. I saw Napoleon Dynamite and yes, even though I wouldn't say it's one of the worst movies of all time, I thought it was as lame as it looked. But keep in mind that some lame-looking movies can be...good. Like "Zoolander" - it looks completely ridiculous, and it is. But that's what makes it so great. But give movies like the HP ones a break - just because you don't like the HP franchise doesn't mean you can really make a valid assessment of the quality of the movies without seeing them.

Well, I have seen half of the first one in a movie store. I was not pulled in a bit. I don't know, maybe I just have different tastes. Again, just stating my opinion. I know poeple need reminding of that once in a while. Just my thoughts. Don't let me bother you. I'm not trying to anyway. :confused:

The first HP movie isn't even the best of the films (in my opinion) and you can't really judge a whole franchise based on one half of the first film!

Whohoo somebody agrees! LoL. Thanx Arwen! I saw 30-45 minutes of Napoleon Dynamite in a video store and even though those 30-45 minutes were extremeley lame and pointless I feel that I have to at least see the whole movie to be able to put it on my crappy list. I've wanted to see Zoolander but haven't had the opportunity. I'm a huge Frat Pack movie fan but I have to admit that Zoolander looked extremely ridiculous and un-funny when it came out but the more I've seen from it and heard about it, it seems like a ridiculously funny movie instead!

No one' seen a bad movie until you've seen the Purifiers!!! AHHH it's sooo bad, there is absolutly no plot. The only good part about it was Dom Monaghan that wasnt even too good because he ended up dying in the end

I've seen Napoleon Dynamite with my whole class in a bus when we returned from our school trip. I don't know if it was just because it was late and everyone was sleepy, but most of us said that the film didn't have a real story. It was just boring.

Napoleon Dynamite dropped my IQ. . .lol. No offense to anyone who liked it, but i thought it was pretty lame. Another bad movie i saw was Silent Warnings. Pretty much a rip off of every alien movie.

Oh, yes, and I have to add one more: Pirates 2. (Don't hurt me! I did like the first quite a lot!) :hide:

*Is incredulous*

Okay, so the whole Elizabeth/Jack thing was stupid and the plot was convoluted and the ending absolutely disgusted me...but I paid to see it twice...and it was pretty good otherwise...

Admittedly it's not one of the worst movies ever but:

    It had way too many subplots (Norrington subplot, Jack/Will/Liz love triangle, etc)

    I didn't really like the new villian very much

    Some of the special effects were kinda over-the-top

    Some of the acting, well, could have been better (I'm not saying any names)

    It was convoluted, some of the scenes could be left completely out and it wouldn't effect the film at all

    Why did they have to bring EVERY character from the first film back?

    It's not as fun as the first

^ Heh, I didn't think a lot of PotC 2 even though I've seen it 2 1/2 times, but I wouldn't put it on my worst movies list...

I didn't like Napoleon Dynamite partly because I'm from Idaho (well, wasn't born there, am not attending school there, but have lived there for a few years) and it annoyed me how now people think that all of Idaho must be like its portrayal in ND.

Galadhrim, imo the first HP movie was the absolute worst one - I liked the 3rd and 4th movies a whole lot more, even though I know some people hate them for their differences from the books.

Eru, you should definitely see Zoolander when you get the chance! It has so many extremely stupid but rotfl-worthy lines :-D
