Taxi driver was heralded as masterpiece- yet except for Dineiro's brief scenes with Harvey Keitel and Peter Boyle it ain't much.

Watched "Fury" the other night......one word.....terrible. Have to disagree with you on this one. recently saw it and thought it was an awesome movie. Of course I am biased as I have spent the past 18 years in Armor units and have followed tanks into battle. Three Shermans, with commanders hanging out their hatches, charge lone Tiger never thinking to spread out to take advantage of the Tiger's poor turret traverse. Tiger charges for some reason instead of easily picking off the Shermans from it's advantageous position. Tiger's 88mm gets deflected at 10 meters by LOGS on the side of Sherman. Several hundred men run head first into lone, mobilty killed tank that has ZERO infantry to back it up. Men unable to avoid 20 degree arc of bow gun and blazing rotation speed of the unpowered turret. GREAT MOVIE

I hate to think of all the hours I have wasted watching bad movies. A few that come to mind are:
Red Sonja
Raising Cain
Face/Off
A Walk in the Clouds
The Scarlett Letter (1990s version)
Gods and Generals
The Thin Red Line
The New World
I could go on.
Always remember that you are unique, just like everyone else.

Rochy Horror. Good Lord, don't leave this dog out of the list.
In 1978 I was living in Atlanta, I was 27 years old. I always considered myself a "young" man, I listened to popular music and watched popular movies. But, I worked with a couple of 20 year old guys.
These guys were raving about Rocky Horror Picture Show. It played every Friday night at 8pm at the theatre down at Peachtree Battle.
One night, I went down there with my fiancee to see the film.
What a pile of Bu******!! An Engllish guy running around in leather bra and panties.
A scene in which it is raining, and all the kids in the audience squirt their squirt guns into the air. Get it? Like it is raining in the theatre. Ha Ha!
A scene in which champagne is drunk, and there is a toast. And all the kids in the audience pull toast from their coats, and throw the toast around the theatre, like frisbees.
WHAT A FUNNY JOKE!!! Toast, get it?
Good Lord what a pile of dog s***! I realized that I was on the wrong side of the generation gap. I didn't care if they declared me a geezer, I wasn't gonna watch Rocky Horror. Walked out after 45 minutes of that bulls***.

"The White Buffalo" with Charles Bronson as Wild Bill Hickok was truly terrible.

"The White Buffalo" with Charles Bronson as Wild Bill Hickok was truly terrible. I remember that one. We'd get drunk at the ranch when it would come on TV and watch it and laugh! Suprised we didn't shoot the tv out! That was the one withthe big fake mechanical white buff in it, right??? LOL! Didn't Slim Pickens have a classic line in there as the stage driver when some floosie on the stage got shot by Indians like , " got her right in the third eye!" Or something like that?? We'd all laugh our azzes off!! Stupid movie!!!

I checked out Private Benjamin from the library last night.
I doubt the kids will ever forgive me for making them watch it.

"Joe vs the Volcano". Absolutely horrible movie, but I went to see it twice. The girl I was dating did the same. Why? So we could make-out in the back the second time we saw it until we got kicked out and then "continue things" in the parking lot and still be able to answer questions about the movie to her parents.

Damn. Odd you mention that. I went to a Drive-in in High School and we literally had to stop and buy a paper on the way home so we could tell her folks what movie we saw....

Thankfully, the drive-in (different lass, different time) showed re-runs of movies that had already come out.
I couldn't even begin to guess what movie it was that she and I "saw".

There was a series of midget westerns produced in the early 60's I think, that were awful but hilarious back then; almost all were
titled Tiny something or other. The world's only musical Western with an all-midget cast!

"Billy Jack". Worst movie of all time. Saw it when it came out. Years later, I was telling the kids (13 and 18 ) how great it was. So, I went and rented it and we all sat down to watch it. I tried very hard to remember why I liked it. We couldn't make through thirty minutes. Just horrible.
