Black Lushus Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 you mean Venom is in Spider-Man 3??? next thing you'll tell me is Darth Vader is Luke's father...who'd believe THAT?
Boon Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 Not as bad as Ewan's delivery of "He killed.... Younglings.." He made up for it with his last speech to Anakin.
The Metal Maniac Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 Yeah, the treatment of Venom in SM3 really pissed me off...especially since they never fucking explained him. Had I not already known all about Venom's character, I woulda sat there going "WTF is going on?" Hell, I *did* wonder WTF was going on, since the symbiote made Eddie Brock about 17 times bigger, but Parker stayed the same size.
Ripper Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 The "Like a virgin" number in Moulin Rouge and the group number at the end. If they had ended it somehow right after Ewan spit on Nicole with that last "come what may", I would have been happy. You liked Moulin Rouge but you wanted it to end with Ewan spitting on his sick/dying girlfriend? That's cold. I would have rather them dispatched of the Duke and his man servant with a longer version of come what may. That number after "Christian, they are trying to kill you!!!" sucked to me. They could still have the death after the curtain drop, but that "I will love you till my dying day" part was awsome and then got tossed out for the Bohemian theme.
Ripper Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 Double post so I will add another. Anthony ANderson and all scenes with him didn't need to be in Transformers. They could have easily done the same think using Tom Lenk's character or someone. That was just a unnecessary detour in the movie. And did I miss something? Wheelie was in the movie? Edit: Just realized you guys are referencing the 84 movie.
Yuna_Firerose Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 Robin Hood: Men in Tights - The Don Giovanni scene. Obviously the movie is incredibly dated, but that scene just firmly roots it in the early 90s. The whole scene just reeks; from the bad impression to the quickly-jump-to-random-joke dialogue, just everything annoys me. What is with the love for doing bad impersonations of the Godfather? Seems like every other show on Disney channel has one. My sister watches that crap channel, so I subsequently hear most of it. >.>;
cabbageboy Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 Eh I never had a problem with Crystal in that, but I DO have a problem with TV stations hyping a showing of it around his bit part. I thought about this further and found one scene in a great movie that flat out sucks and I've always found incomprehensible. That would be Fargo, notably the scene where Frances McDormand meets up with the one Chinese dude in the restaurant. It's such a pointless scene, adds nothing to the overall narrative, and unlike The Big Lebowski (which has several bizarre character scenes) it isn't one bit entertaining.
Prophet of Mike Zagurski Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 Katie Holmes in Batman Begins.
King Kamala Posted July 20, 2007 Report Posted July 20, 2007 Katie Holmes in Batman Begins. And in a similar vein, Katie Holmes in Thank You For Smoking. Though that was a good movie, not really a great one.
At Home Posted July 20, 2007 Author Report Posted July 20, 2007 When I said venom was rad I simply meant that he looked cool. The character venom wasn't explained well enough, and there were a lot of things wrong, but he looked cool.
2GOLD Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 The only time Katie Holmes has ever been useful in a movie is her 10 seconds in THE GIFT and the scene in "The Ice Storm" with Tobey McQuire.
treble Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 The dance sequence in Spider-Man 3. I am by no means calling Spider-Man 3 a "great" movie, I know it's been widely criticized on the boards, but I liked it. Except for that scene. That's the best part of the movie, though.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 It's not really a "scene," but I cringe every time I hear some actress scream during "Spiderman 2." *Debris falling to the ground* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! *Bad guy scoops up girl* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Coffin Surfer Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 The "Jesus loves the little children" bullshit and forced comic relief in the otherwise classic Night of the Hunter. I could be wrong but I always got the impression that they were scared of censors/audience reactions and felt they had to lighten the overall mood to keep the darkness from being too overwhelming. Than there's Tarantino's delivery in Pulp Fiction. "Dun't you Jimmy me, Jules...kay?"
Jingus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 The "Jesus loves the little children" bullshit and forced comic relief in the otherwise classic Night of the Hunter. I could be wrong but I always got the impression that they were scared of censors/audience reactions and felt they had to lighten the overall mood to keep the darkness from being too overwhelming. I thought Lillian Gish's little monologue at the end was pretty superfluous, too. Up there with the psychologist at the end of Psycho in the "okay, I GET it already!" department.
Jingus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 This is supposed to be "Shitty Scenes in Great Movies", not "Shitty Sequels to Great Movies". Otherwise, I'd go on a rant about every Alien movie after the second one, with increasing profanity for every installment.
Maztinho Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 Billy Crystal in The Princess Bride LIES~! While not a horrible scene, just one really bad line in "The Goonies." "I can't remember if it's an A sharp or a B-flat" THEY ARE THE SAME FUCKING KEY YOU STUPID WHORE!
Jingus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 And it set up such a terrible punchline: "If you don't get this note right, we'll all BE FLAT LOL" god kill me.
Black Lushus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 Alien: Resurrection was just fine until they decide to have the Queen give birth like a human...
Lord of The Curry Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 The scene in the hotel room in Knocked Up. You suck at life. "There are five types of chairs in this hotel room" "This one has better energy" "Tastes like a rainbow" I repeat, you suck at life.
luke-o Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 The scene in the hotel room in Knocked Up. "There are five types of chairs in this hotel room" That was a funny line. it just felt really out of place and effected the pace of the film. Although the bits leading up to it were great.
Jingus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 Alien: Resurrection was just fine until they decide to have the Queen give birth like a human... Except for the stupid focus on dark "comedy", the teeth-aching overacting of some of the cast, the shoddy CGI alien effects, the mostly crappy dialogue, the badly handled action scenes, and the I-can't-believe-nobody-noticed-this treatment of the American characters as a bunch of idiots by the French director. And THEN the queen gives birth to the worst looking Alien I've ever seen in my life, just to make damn sure that the movie failed. (Yeah, I take the decline of the Alien series REAL seriously.)
Black Lushus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 picky picky picky Alien 3 wasn't horrible either...it was just slow and no one wanted slow after the kick ass action that was Aliens...plus Ripley dying kinda takes the wind out of the sails.
King Kamala Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 I like Alien 3 too for some reason. But I've made a conscious decision to never see Alien: Resurrection after shit reviews it's gotten.
Black Lushus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 Alien: Resurrection is on par with a Michael Bay flick, if that helps you out KKC.
Jingus Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 Alien 3 was... okay. It had a great director in David Fincher, a real good supporting cast, and a script that should've been recycled into cheap toilet paper for the poor. Some people like it better than Alien Resurrection, while others are vyce-versa. But can we all agree that none of these were as appallingly worthless as Alien vs. Predator?
