abertawe_ram Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 The Golden Compass (it's on channel 4 as I type). After reading and loving Phillip Pullman's books when I was young, I was really excited to see them made into films. Sadly they ballsed it up enormously. I'm hoping they aren't going to do the same thing with the film version of The Book Thief, another of my favourite books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abertawe_ram Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Wall Street is another contender for me but I'm not sure I made it all the way through that. It felt it'd been going for weeks when I switched it off. Intensely boring film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abertawe_ram Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 And the main actress in it, forgot her name, but she is so annoying. Yep. She is so irritating. It's tough when the lead role is a child because decent child actors are hard to find. The more I watch Game of Thrones the more I think the girl who plays Arya would be great as Lyra in the Northen Lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddie Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Sharknado. On my third attempt at watching the crock of poo I managed to watch it all the way through. Didn't take long to be deleted off my hard drive soon after. Sharknado is another 'Wild Women of Wonga' or 'Plan 9 From Outer Space'. So awful it's wonderful. Watch it again.

sage Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Diabloque with Madonna about 15 years ago, with just me the then wife the only ones in the cinema. My proposal of alternative entertainment was snubbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Little Nicky The first 5 minutes were terrible and I knew the rest of the movie was going to be terrible.. I don't know why I finished it. Get in the flask Bris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 She's The One (1996) is a close call. Started to watch the movie because John Mahoney was in cast. However there were also Jennifer Aniston and Cameron Diaz who were totally blown away by beauty of the actress Maxine Bahns. The movie sucked but I think I'm in love.

Mostyn6 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Sharknado... So so so bad it was almost good! Made better by the fact there were about 5 of us drinking and watching it. I'm chuckling to myself now at some of the scenes and it was months ago I watched it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than "Megashark v Giant Octopus" - although the scene where the shark downs a jumbo jet is a 'must see'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewetube Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Videodrome (1983) Hardcore ography, sadomasochism, mind control, and living televisions all play crucial roles in Videodrome, one of director David Cronenberg's explorations of dangerous sexuality and technological obsession. The morally questionable hero of the tale is one Max Renn (James Woods), a television executive searching for an intense new program for his sex-oriented network. He ultimately discovers an underground program called "Videodrome," which appears to broadcast ographic snuff films of actual murders. Horrified but perversely intrigued, Renn sets out to find the truth behind the program. During his search, he meets alluring femme fatale Nicki (Blondie lead singer Debbie Harry), technology cult leader Bianca O'Blivion, and other mysterious figures. Things become even more disturbing for Renn as his addiction grows, and the program begins to infect the outside world -- or perhaps merely destroy own his sanity. Cronenberg mingles his cerebral concerns about the nature of reality in the video age with enough visceral gore (courtesy of Rick Baker) to satisfy the film's intended horror audience. If I had the benefit of this synopsis back in 1983 I may have had an idea what the hell was going on. Still, Debbie Harry was fit and naked in it which was my main purpose for watching this film as a hormonal 16 year old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
