Alright, to see who's still out there reading this mess, a question-

Which movies have just made you plain angry after seeing them?

By which, I mean- Which films have had you walking out of the theater a little pissed off, wondering how they got made? After seeing them on the Digital-Video-Disc, you took it out and just shook your head? You and a ( Read more... )

"Independence Day"
"Sex and the City Movie"
"Crash"
"Monster's Ball"

Fucking shitty-ass, stupid-ass, annoying-as-fuck movies. And they were all big budget and supposed to be "good," it's not like some crummy b-movie where you sort of feel bad for the people who made it for not that much money.

Independence Day - rah rah jingoism mixed in with crappy crappy melodrama. Just when you think something stupider isn't going to happen, they top it, whether it's the president piloting a space ship or Will Smith uploading a "virus" to the aliens MAC COMPUTER. And it's not over-the-top stupid like in a Michael Bay movie, because it's overlaid with the sanctimonious patriotism.

Sex and the City Movie - There is a speech at the beginning about how all women in New York are searching for "love and labels." The labels part is just disgusting, since most women, or anyone in New York, can barely get by due to everything being so goddamn expensive, except for the few billionaires who can afford to live like these women, who never seem to pass a single homeless person. And as for "love," the sex and the city ladies claim to be looking for men, but every man in the show is a piece of shit, or a barely written stereotype, and you never see them having fun with men. They only smile at when they're with each other. Why look for a man when they make you so miserable?

"Crash" and "Monster's Ball" - horrible, horrible "oscar bait" that claim to "penetrating looks at the problem of race in america" but end up re-hashing the same stupid stereotypes. I've seen better discussions of these issues in corporate training videos.

Oh, also "Austin Powers 2". I hate it when comedy sequels just do the same jokes again. So annoying.
