I'm sure many do not agree but I turned off Talladega Nights. It was one of the WORST movies I have ever seen. I couldn't take any more. I RARELY turn off movies at home because usually if they are that bad, they are usually funny because they are so bad. This one, I couldn't get past about 20 minutes. It seems like EVERYONE else likes this movie. Maybe you have to like Asscar or something.

One movie as an example of being so bad it is funny is one from my childhood called No retreat, no surrender. I think it is one of Jean-Claude Van Damme's first movies. VERY stupid and the acting is so bad, it is actually funny. I watched it with my son not too long ago and he laughed his ass off.

Even though this was probably my absolute favorite movie as a young lad, I will throw it out there to see if any of you guys remember it. I've been craving to watch it again, but I just know it won't be the same experience.

Wow, I can't even find this movie on ebay --that is a first. Note: if anyone happens for some odd and unknown reason to have a copy, I would love to get it off of you for a viewing.

EDIT:
Apparently the movie is also called "Ragewar"
Here is a page with a handful of screenshots and a synopsis.

I agree on Talladega Nights and would extend that to any Will Ferrell movie.

Hold the press!! I have officially remembered the worst movie of all time!
Vampire Assasin

Notice how bad ass the cover makes it look? Well I rented it mainly based on the fact that I had watched Equilibrium, which also had a cool cover that was reminiscent of The Matrix (Equilibrium was a cool movie by the way). Anyways, the dude on the cover is not in the movie. The star is a balding, pudgy dude who aparently thinks he is bad ass because he has a yellow belt in Karate. It is just bad. I turned it off after about half an hour - and I only kept it on that long because I kept lying to myself that this was just some kind of "in joke" and would get better. I've filmed better stuff when I was a little kid with a camcorder...seriously.

I nominate The Astronaut Farmer. Just saw that last night. What a crappy piece of Eli Manning.

It wasn't that bad. Implausible yes, but still a decent movie.

Eh. It was depressing as hell. They spent the first 75 minutes on "crap on the little guy trying to do something great" followed by about 5 minutes of him succeeding and then absolutely no affirmation of it from anyone. That's just not balanced enough to be much more than a French social commentary.

I recommend you go rent The World's Fastest Indian. Its starts with the similar "crap on the little guy trying to do something great", but has a great ending and is a true story (the dvd contains the original documentary on the guy).

Watch out, don't have a Brandon Jacobs-mouth.

Brandon can stay out of the lineup, i'll take Droughns.

ChadTower · « **Reply #52 on:** September 28, 2007, 02:31:51 pm »

That's the spirit. Embrace their low end mediocrity.

You must have had a very bad experience at Giants stadium one day or you really do not like me much to keep up this Giants bashing as you do.

Did the Giants beat your team one day and you are still heartbroken over the whole thing?

ChadTower · « **Reply #54 on:** September 28, 2007, 02:41:15 pm »

My dislike of the Giants is not about you.

It is about the Giants.

Because they suck.

tommy · « **Reply #55 on:** September 28, 2007, 02:51:58 pm »

Well, i guess you're going to be in hell the next few weeks as the Giants win all those games.

ChadTower · « **Reply #56 on:** September 28, 2007, 02:55:26 pm »

Hrm... sunday night they have the Eagles. 56 points last week for Philly.

Then they have the Jets and Atlanta. If they don't beat those two you won't have to listen to me put them down anymore because everyone else will be drowning me out doing it.

shardian · « **Reply #57 on:** September 28, 2007, 03:55:01 pm »

Well the Giants have my boy Ahmad Bradshaw...too bad he has fumbled the ball each time he's touched it...

Still say he'll end up their #1 back.

tommy · « **Reply #58 on:** September 28, 2007, 04:05:20 pm »

Giants RB Ward has more yards then LT and LJ combined.

ChadTower · « **Reply #59 on:** September 28, 2007, 04:08:03 pm »

Does he have as many passing or receiving TDs as LT?

Didn't think so.

Glad they won... if there is any team I dislike more than the Giants, it's the Eagles. Someone had to win that game.

I just watched deathproof. ( 1st part of grindhouse) What a crapfest.

A bunch of chicks hanging out bullshitting with two chase scenes thrown in.
Kurt Russel must have really needed the money.

So basically it is Reservoir Dogs, but with chicks?

I ask because I hated RD and shut it off halfway thru. I want to see Planet Terror, but wasn't too sure about Death Proof.

ChadTower · « **Reply #64 on:** October 01, 2007, 03:29:47 pm »

Saw the latest Harry Potter on the IMAX with 20 minutes of 3D thrown in... pretty good movie, the 3D fight sequence was amazing.

AtomSmasher · « **Reply #65 on:** October 01, 2007, 03:38:17 pm »

I just got a movie that I haven't watched yet, but I'm sure its going to be horrible. Its called Doomed, and according to the back of the box the storyline is there is a new reality show where 5 teams are placed on an island and the first to reach the other side wins $50 million dollars. The problem is there are zombie death squads on the island hunting the contestants. It should be some horrible B-movie fun

The only reason I've even heard of this movie is because my uncle is in it, which should make it even more fun to watch.

I didn't see resivoir dogs but deathproof was terrible.

AtomSmasher · « **Reply #67 on:** October 04, 2007, 01:32:25 am »

I just watched Doomed and it was horrible, but not worst movie ever horrible. One thing thats pretty funny is that my Uncle used an alias in the movie. I guess he knew how bad the movie was going to be and decided to try and distance himself from it early on, which is really saying something because he's done some really bad B-movies in the past. I'll have to ask him about it then next time I see him.

I don't know why you guys are bitching...we could go back to model jets with flares stuck in the back of them.

ChadTower · « **Reply #69 on:** October 04, 2007, 07:52:10 am »

I like that type of movie.

psik0tik · « **Reply #70 on:** October 04, 2007, 09:29:45 am »

Not complaining about them..just about the people that say "The graphics just weren't realistic enough"

ChadTower · « **Reply #71 on:** October 04, 2007, 09:41:18 am »

I love how people say that like they have any idea what something like that actually would look like in real life.

psik0tik · « **Reply #72 on:** October 04, 2007, 10:23:51 am »

Yeap....I guess everyone that has bitched about the graphics has seen dragons fly over the tops of they're houses and can account for the realistic nature of them.

Thanks for that. It was a good movie and was just as you said. Anthony Hopkins was fantastic.
