BUT..."we're Robin Hood, we're men in tights, tight tights!"

They started it well but then you had characters disappear and not show up again till the fight at the end |

| 2012 deserves a mention. The story and acting were equally terrible |

The Lake House must be one of the most boring films ever. Along with this horrible movie that had Harrison Ford in it... I can't remember the name... found it: Random Hearts. Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas never ever smiled throughout the movie. Ever (neither did I of course, as I was too upset for being spending my money and time watching them frown for an hour and a half).
Another horrible one: Troy. This film was made with the sole purpose of showing Brad Pitt looking like a porn star, which was 100% achieved. But it was gross. And the historical accuracy is breath taking: I didn't know the Greeks wore hippy ponchos.
This reminds me of another Harrison Ford movie: Indiana Jones learned quechua from Pancho Villa (and the guy who heard this was so impressed!). Yeah... well, it's even more impressive that Pancho Villa knew any quechua himself, since it's a language spoken by a different culture that doesn't even live in Mexico.
There are tons more of course. Everyone knows my feelings towards Tom Hanks. Add Jim Carrey and Robin Williams. :o) |

I fucking hate pretty much all musicals (except the Blues Brothers), I am proud to state I have never seen, Chicago, Moulin Rouge or Sweeney Todd.

| I adore Moulin Rouge. Sweeney Todd was pretty good too, but not a favourite. |

Kristy's comment about Richard Gere reminded me of when I saw Mama Mia. While it wasn't the worst movie, it's not great. A cheesy guilty pleasure I guess.
Anyway, when Pierce Bronson sang people in the audience were laughing. I am pretty sure that is not what they intended but it was so painful. |

| I kinda liked Sweeney Todd. Moulin Rouge was just too weird for me. But I am a HUGE, HUUUUGE Sound of Music nut! |

| I love Moulin Rouge! I like Chicago too, but I do agree with Kristy about Richard Gere singing. Cringe-worthy. |

9 Songs/The Brown Bunny
Both of these films are shit, they both have explicit sex scenes which I'm guessing, because they're "Art" makes it acceptable to the type of people who probably read the Guardian. The plot in both is practically non-existant, the acting is even worse and the direction is laughable. If you wanna watch Porn at least be honest about it and go rent some instead of watching these two pieces of utter arse gravy

I like Mama Mia (again, not a favourite, but i'll watch it when it comes on) but I agree totally. PIERCE BRONSON CANNOT SING! The result in the movie is after months of vocal training and Im sure lots of computer generated corrections. imagine what it was like before? |

I didn't know about the lessons and all of that. I have to think the producers offered to have a voiceover for his singing parts because how could they not hear that awfulness? Which leads me to believe he really wanted to do it.
shudder.
