Aaaah. There we go. Took much longer than I expected to get to the bashing. 8)
Surprised nobody jumped on me immediately for Blair Witch. That seems to be a real love it or hate it film.

Like the movie or not, you have to give the filmmakers credit for how they marketed the movie when it first was released on a very limited basis to "art-house" type theaters. Billing it as real, really drew people in. I saw it within the first few days of release, well before it had been completely debunked as fake, and it was pretty disturbing.
Of course, by the time it reached major release, it was well know that it was entirely fiction and was getting ripped apart by critics and others.
ChadTower:
Heh. I remember that hype, I was at UMass, and the whole school was buzzing with some sort of "in joke" about the movie. It was huge on campus. I grew up in the deep woods and the whole movie, when they're lost and freaking out and yelling, just kept thinking "you're standing in front of moving ---smurfing--- water, follow it and go home, dillholes".
bleemus:
1) Amadeus
2) Grosse Pointe Blank
3) Memento
4) Seven
5) Fight Club
It hurts to not put any of the Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR in there, but it would be too hard to pick out a single one.
USSEnterprise:
You have to remember, Douglas Adams did partially write the screenplay for HitchHiker's Guide. Every version was different: The books, the radio program, the TV show, and the movie. I thought the movie was good for a novel to movie script. Doesn't compare to the book, though.
