I took a girlfriend to see Boys on the Side.

Our relationship almost ended on the drive home.
 
Fried Green Tomatoes....I swear I was forced to do it.

Breaking II Electric Boogaloo. OK so I was a kid then.
 
I got to see SouthPark - bigger longer uncut for free cause my buddy worked at the theater.

I still wanted a refund
 
My list is pretty short because I'm picky about which movies I will actually pay to see AND I'm not real picky about the movies that I see. Does that make sense?

Anyway,

Easily...The newest Indiana Jones movie. Absolutely awful.

Also, The Happening. To show you how "unpicky" I am, I loved Signs. The Happening was terrible.
 
weekend at bernie's? seriously?!?!

that was a great movie.
 
Contact.

I don't care that Matthew Mc was in it, it still put me to sleep. At least I didn't snore like the man sitting across the aisle from us.
 
Star. Wars. Episode. 1.

High School High - I finally got this girl to go out with me, we go see that movie by default, and I literally had to apologize afterward. Needless to say, no second date there.
 
Girlfriend bought used DVD of "Lars and the Real Girl" because several friends had told us it was good. Holy ****, that's the worst movie I've ever seen that somehow managed to trick people into thinking it was all "indie" or "counterculture" or cool in some kind of quirky way.

I'm perfectly capable of suspending disbelief for the sake of getting lost in a story: ET comes to earth, martians invade, the pig can talk, Michael Keaton clones himself, etc. Whatever. I can go with it.

But "Lars" required a stretch that I just couldn't make: The creepy loner guy starts taking his blow-up doll around town, dresses it up, carries on conversations with it, takes it to parties, etc. So are people creeped out? Is he ostracized? Oh, no... the whole town actually RALLIES around him and plays along with his delusion. That zany, quirky co-worker girl who makes zany, quirky faces in every scene: does she lose interest in Lars when confronted with his life-sized sex toy? Oh no, she continues to court him, and is eager to be his love interest just as soon as he's finished with Ms. Latex.

Yeah, that could happen. "I have a date tomorrow night with Lars who spent the last 3 months talking to his doll, 'Bianca.' I'm so excited!"

But to smooth over these absurdly retarded plot elements, we're given multiple scenes of stilted, stupid movie talk, where the doctor explains Lars' delusions to his family (and to us). Oh, that folksy, wise doctor who indulges Lars' delusions! So brilliant, she is!

Really the stupidest movie I've seen in years. Not one funny moment, not one clever story twist.... just a horrid script that bends over backwards trying to be "indie."

The emperor is naked.
 
horn89, count me in with lars and the real girl. i got suckered into that one.
 
I second the new Indiana Jones movie....easily one of the worst ive seen.
