Worst. Movie. Ever.

[HotLips]

The new Three Stooges movie looks like it has Razzie potential.

I saw Drive Angry in 3D this weekend and thought it was awesome!! But then, I also loved Death Race and Ghost Rider. I like a bit of cheesy violence and this definitely delivered. (Also, we just bought a 3D TV so it's still a novelty. I'm even planning on watching Yogi Bear on it later

We are anxiously awaiting Ghost Rider 2 -- talk about awesomely awful! Did you see Shoot 'Em Up, Glitterbug?

Since there's no thread for worst movie commentary ever, I'll put this here- Camille Paglia on Basic Instinct. Dear lord. The people who do the movie descriptions for the blind are more entertaining. She spends most of time just describing what's happening onscreen, and over an hour in she actually makes a good point about the Catherine Trammell character out-Madonna-ing Madonna in terms of blonde vixenhood or whatever. Of course she makes no mention of Madge's attempt at a Trammell-like character in Body of Evidence a year later, which a true movie fan or someone with a sense of humor would have mentioned. I cannot believe I sat through that.

Yeahhhh Ghost Rider 2!! I can't wait. No, really.

Shoot 'Em Up was hilarious. What was with the carrots?! Also: Pig Vomit was in it, which is always excellent value

Wholly Moses, has to be one of the, if not the worst movie ever made. It's allegedly a comedy, but I didn't laugh once. We ended up turning off the video 2/3rds of the way through. It had a great cast, but terrible writing.

Mr. carrier76 jokingly informed me that my "favorite movie" was on TV this morning...and it was GLITTER. I sat my ass right down and watched the last third of it, or so. It has to be the best bad movie ever. Watching Mariah "emote" never gets old.

I've often wondered if 9/11 had never happened, whether Mariah would still have a career. That movie was on track to destroy any credibility she had as an artist.

Mr. d fell asleep last night watching something called LIVE!, about a TV producer who creates a reality show featuring six average Joes who play Russian roulette on live TV--the survivors each win $5 million. Starred Eva Mendes, who was awful. I woke from a deep sleep to stupid dialogue, horribly delivered, and finally roused myself to turn the crap off before Contestant No. 1 pulled the trigger. So, so bad.

That sounds like a film school exercise. "Make a movie about a game of Russian roulette with zero suspense, intrigue, or tension. Go!"

That "Oogieloves" movie apparently is on pace to be the biggest flop in ever and ever. It cost $20 million, they spent $40 million on promotion (where? I think I saw three commercials last week and that's it), and took in just under $500,000 this weekend.

I could not figure out the TV commercials. Is it a movie? A kiddie concert tour? A parody? All the "stars" in it seemed to have it written in their contracts that they be filmed from the back or be so heavily made up as to be unrecognizable. The costumed characters look designed by arthritic hoboes. Really, you'd think the main task in making a children's movie about costumed characters would be making appealing characters! I've seen minor league baseball mascots that are less frightening.

The upside is that now the makers of "Delgo" won't have to live with the Worst Opening Weekend title anymore.

More than you ever wanted to know about Oogieloves. It's meant to be a "Rocky Horror Picture Show for a family audience" meaning an interactive movie-going experience for preschoolers. The original idea was a Teletubbies movie but one of the creators wouldn't sign off so after a while they invented a new universe and characters instead. Here's the trailer...nothing says family friendly quite like a Nicki Minaj song.
