<p>Oh wow, I just realized I forgot Dungeons & Dragons. Ha ha, that one was so awful it’s hilarious. Cheesy CGI, emo montage when a main character died, and bad dialogue.</p>
<p>Still a “what a good mommy I was to sit through THAT with you” story. Right up there with labor and childbirth stories: The Pebble and the Penguin.</p>
<p>OK, having flashbacks now… ugh.</p>

<p>YES!!! I remember this one. I saw it with my sister and all of our kids and I remember leaning over and whispering to her “Apparently anyone can write a children’s movie and get it on the big screen. I’m going home to write one this afternoon.”</p>
<p>Absolutely painful!!!</p>
<p>Another one…Centennial Man with Robin Williams. He was some kind of robot or something. It was embarrassing.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What year was it that the Academy Award for best picture went to Ghandi, when it clearly should have gone to E.T.? ET was a beautiful movie, and accessible to boot. Academy apparently doesn’t like commercial success, and was awarding the kind of movies that “ought” to be made, instead of really good movies that people love.</p>
<p>I saw Joyride (Candy Cane!). A “B” movie for sure. Watched it with my son, and he said “Wow Mom,this is like…your worst fear.” (I DESPISE tractor trailers, and yes, I’m scared of them, a rational fear I believe). Thought it was scary…but fun to watch…not quite as good as Duel though. And some on this board might just add it to their “worst” list if forced to watch!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Far more torturous for H would be to make him sit through HIS vote for worst movie of all time (I think this probably be on the list for ALL men)…</p>
<p>Beaches.</p>
<p>If I made that deal, I’d never have to worry about watching Duel, ever again! 
(At least nobody’s arguing with Deliverance)</p>
<p>Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus. Yes, it is an actual movie that came on TV a couple of months ago. The shark in the movie wasn’t your “Jaws” variety; he chomped a battleship in half, jumped 30,000 feet to take out an airliner in midflight, and ate the golden gate bridge. I wish I was joking.</p>
<p>Anything with Sylvester Stallone in it. </p>
<p>On a positive note, I watched Mission to Mars last night during the snow storm.
I think this one is way underrated. The scenes with the Tim Robbins and Connie Nielsen characters have got to be among the all-time greats in the Bound-for-Mars Space Station Romance genre. And, they should have invented a whole new Academy Award that year just for the expression on Gary Sinese’s face during the final, submerged-under-water-but-hey-I-can-breathe epiphany.</p>
<p>Speaking of Jaws, which movie was it when the shark’s . . . mom or whatever . . . tracked the family thousands of miles so it could continue eating them? The one with the tagline “This time it’s personal.” I’m thinking Jaws IV?</p>
<p>A really bad movie with a great cast - Death to Smoochy.</p>
<p>I believe the title was Mouse Hunt…or how to try and kill an annoying mouse but blow up your house instead. I offered to PAY my children if they would leave…nope.</p>
<p>American Beauty…I’m sorry (this is directed to the PC Gods), but I found it awful. </p>
<p>Never watched a slasher movie, mass murder movie (I am not referring to Schindler’s List), or sequel movies.</p>
<p>“The Ten Commandments” with Charleton Heston. Multiple scenes of some irrelevant romance took up the middle hour. I did like the ocean parting, though; that was cool. </p>
<p>At age 4, S-1 watched it repeatedly on VHS so I could tend to infant D. We both memorized every line. One evening, sitting at synagogue, he heard the original version read from Exodus and yelled out, “THAT’s not how it happened!!”</p>
<p>Bicentennial man, an Isaac Asimov book on which the Robin Williams movie was based, is actually a pretty good read.</p>
<p>The “Series of Unfortunate Events” movie from a considerably long time ago was downright horrible and it was terribly inconsistent with the actual written literature to the point of being an entirely different work of fiction vaguely depicting the actual story that I enjoyed that long while ago.</p>
<p>If I do recall all of his prior works, “The Nuber 22” was the worst Jim Carrey movie to date. For one the picture was barely visible throughout most of the movie, if Carrey hadn’t been listed as lead actor, I’d have no reason whatsoever to think it was Carrey. The director horribly utelized him, not that I’m fond of Carrey otherwise though. The plot was also completely incoherent and barely descriptive to boot. Overall, it left me pondering as to what the hell the movie was actually about.</p>
<p>“Point Break”, and I use quotations marks as a courtesy the film does not deserve.</p>
