Smues Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 So what do you have as worse than Knowing? I still haven't seen New in Town, and don't plan too, but after having some time to think about it I think I've got Knowing as worse than Street Fighter. Yeah Knowing has more comedic bad value than Street Fighter, but Knowing is just so intelligence insulting, and takes itself so seriously, that I have to give it the nod.
bob_barron Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 I need to update my rankings Underworld, Jo Bros, Pink Panther, New In Town, Street Fighter- all worse. I thought the plane crash was pretty cool and Nic Cage movies may be bad, but they're hilarious
Smues Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 And wow I just watched the End Game trailer. Wow. That's not actually getting a theatrical release is it? It didn't even look like a real movie.
Smues Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 Can you count Jonas Brothers as a movie? Isn't it really just a concert? And my bottom three at the moment is Underworld, Street Fighter, Knowing. 2012 and Dragonball are quite likely to displace some of those though.
bob_barron Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 We count it for our list purposes, and we're ranking it, so it counts. Watching them introduce our friend Tayor Swift is funny stuff though.
Smues Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 My wife (but not me!) will be seeing New in Town this weekend. If (when) she comes back and says 'it was good' do I need to have the divorce papers waiting for her?
Rendclaw Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 You can't grade Mortal Kombat that badly. It's essentially a super-powered remake of Enter the Dragon with the video game characters (And really, wasn't that what the video game was supposed to be, anyways?). I felt it was enjoyable, if pretty simple. Exactly, and thats what made it work. Street Fighter could do the same thing if it followed that formula, and did not deviate too far from it. Start with the original twelve characters, do six fights, and one of them makes it to Bison, who swerves them all and the eight good guys have to take him out. Its not hard at all. And while Kristin Kreuk is cute and all, not getting Zhang Ziyi to do Chun-Li automatically makes the move less than. And for whatever reason, people fucking LOVE disaster/apocalyptic movies. Don;t ask me why, I think they're all depressing as fuck, but people flock to see them.
SuperJerk Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 We count it for our list purposes, and we're ranking it, so it counts. Watching them introduce our friend Tayor Swift is funny stuff though. Okay, I'll bite....what happened?
bob_barron Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Nothing happens, they just call her "our friend" Taylor Swift, because one of the Jonas' was dating her at the time. Apparently they had a really nasty breakup, so she is no longer their friend.
SuperJerk Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 I think you and I have very different definitions of what constitutes "funny stuff."
bob_barron Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 When you're sitting through a movie that's a Jonas Brothers concert, you take amusement wherever you can get it.
bob_barron Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 I was thinking of making Super Capers worst of 09 but- 1) I think the movie knows it sucks 2) This will be the second year in a row Christine Lakin would be in my worst film of the year, and I like Al Lambert!
Boner Kawanger Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 I just want to bring this cinematic (?) gem to everyone's attention. Crossposting from the TNA folder: http://www.northshore-pictures.com/video/E...me_Trailer.html
Smues Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 I just want to bring this cinematic (?) gem to everyone's attention. Crossposting from the TNA folder: http://www.northshore-pictures.com/video/E...me_Trailer.html This probably isn't going to be seen by enough people to be considered truly bad on a national level, but it's the trailer for Kurt Angle's new movie. http://www.northshore-pictures.com/video/E...me_Trailer.html Dodgy production values? Check. Ridiculous plot? Check. Bad acting? Check. Kurt Angle dressed as a clown? Check. This is going to make 12 rounds look like All About Eve. Thanks, I'd forgotten that we discussed it 3 days ago. [/asshole] But seriously yeah it's going to be god awful. For all the shit WWE Films gets at least they can make movies that look like actual movies where actual money was spent to make them. EndGame just looks retched. Although Kurt Angle the clown has incredibly comedic possibilities. I'm going to have to watch the movie for that alone. Everybody's raped by clowns, so why not you?
zhangmeijie Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 For me the worst movie of the year was Pink panther. Nothing worse yet. Dragonball has the potential mind.
bob_barron Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Pink Panther 2 at least had the funny scenes of him and Lily Tomlin. Severed Ways had a guy taking a shit. On camera. I hope for End Game they go all out and have Kurt Angle using wrestling moves on people and saying it's true, it's true! I also think WWE Films should also have the characers use wrestling moves. I mean, no one takes these films seriously anyway.

Gary Floyd Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 I heard the soundtrack to "Severed Ways" was interesting. That's about the only good thing I've heard though. From what I saw in the trailer, it looks like a Black Metal fanboy trying to do a minimalist art flick.

The Rundown had the Rock Rock Bottoming some guy. I just watched the End Game trailer and it's probably the worst thing I've seen outside of stuff done in my college film classes. "It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood."? Really? It seemed like everyone (in the trailer, at least) had no clue how to read any of those lines and the cinematography was laughably bad for a horror movie/thriller/whatever they were going for. It looks worse than a reenactment on Rescue 911 or Unsolved Mysteries.
bob_barron Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 I loved that in the Rundown. Didn't he Rock Bottom a guy in Walking Tall?
2GOLD Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 I loved that in the Rundown. Didn't he Rock Bottom a guy in Walking Tall? Yes he did.

It looks worse than a reenactment on Rescue 911 or Unsolved Mysteries. But Unsolved Mysteries had Robert Stack and had better production values - thus making it more awesome. UPDATE!
Atticus Chaos Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 I saw twelve rounds. Not great, but nowhere near streetfighter levels of bad. Although the main villain's plan was incredibly stupid, in retrospect.
RedJed Posted April 1, 2009 Report Posted April 1, 2009 I saw twelve rounds. Not great, but nowhere near streetfighter levels of bad. Although the main villain's plan was incredibly stupid, in retrospect. Yeah I just got back from it and I actually thought it was bearable enough to keep me interested (the action scenes were over the top, hard to believe, but yet well done) but that main villian was one of the weakest bad guy roles I've seen in mainstream cinema in quite a long time. All I kept thinking the whole time was that the dude looked like Johnny Fairplay's twin brother and that just ruined it completely for me. Also, the two main feds were just ridiculous, and there was alot of really bad acting and, in general, poorly directed scenes of dialogue, but it still wasn't worst movie of the year bad or anything. Just over the top popcorn fare.
AndrewTS Posted April 1, 2009 Report Posted April 1, 2009 I loved that in the Rundown. Didn't he Rock Bottom a guy in Walking Tall? Yes he did. Neither were WWE films, though. Plus, if you see a movie because John Cena is in it, you should kill yourself. Rundown starred Christopher Walken, the Rock, and the Rock punching Stifler in the face. Big difference.
UltimA~ Posted April 1, 2009 Report Posted April 1, 2009 The new movie coming back "Dragonball Evolution" looks pretty stupid. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1098327/
