Snatch
Wayne's World
2001: A Space Odyssey

Reservoir Dogs

Post yours NOW!

The Matrix Trilogy
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Star Trek (from Generations onwards, none of that Original Series cr@p thanks!)

Umm I think those are the only ones that really make it onto my favourites list. Star Wars was very good but not brilliant. I haven't seen Episode III yet though.

And Switch wins the forum Worst Taste award...

Everything after VI was a disgrace to the series. Lets see....

Generations: a two hour collection of plot holes that makes zero sense if you've got more intelligence than the average 5 year old, as well as being a cheap excuse to sell movie tickets with Kirk's name. My dog could write a more coherent script than this.

First Contact: the only bright point in the TNG movies, in that it's merely average not actually unwatchable.

Insurrection: yay for false moral dillemas (improve the lives of billions or avoid inconveniencing a few people... tough choice there) and dull scripts. And the whole crew rebellion thing? Lets just forget that badly done bit of garbage ever existed.

Nemesis: the definition of unwatchable. Here's a hint, when even the most rabid of fans refuse to accept its existence, you have a bad film.


I guess you never watched Wrath of Khan or Undiscovered Country, did you? The TOS movies make it onto "best movies ever made" lists. The TNG ones can't even make it onto "best Star Trek movies ever" lists!



Oh, and...



was a joke, right? The first movie at least had style and made good mindless entertainment. The others were just horrible. A bit of advice to directors: don't ramble on about pseudo-philosophy when your entire movie is based on a bit of idiocy and ignorance more appropriate to 1st grade writing class than a major movie.

Let's see...

In no particular order:

Dune (David Lynch version, not crappy mini-series)
The Hunger
Repo Man
Blue Velvet
Dead Man
Wild At Heart
Ran
Throne of Blood
From Hell
Pulp Fiction
Grim Prairie Tales
A Company of Wolves
Excalibur
Leon
Blade Runner

And this, people, would be the perfect example of why this idiot lost his moderation priviledges. Learn not to flame sometime, will ya?

I do have greater intelligence than your average five year old, and frankly, dislike your taste in just about everything. Including your choice of personality traits.

I happen to enjoy those films. I think they're good. Just because you think they are not doesn't mean you get to rub it in my face and try (rather incapably) to make me look silly. I just happen to think that the Kirk films were a load of corn. I'll admit I didn't watch all of them, just bits and pieces, but it all looked like the same old Kirk stuff so I didn't look into them in any more depth. Ok?

For once could you respect other people's opinions instead of getting on your high horse and insulting people? It's rather pathetic to watch.

Dune, the mini-series (and not just to spite Theta! )
Star Wars (original, 4-6)
Wayne's World

Peregrine's post deleted.

Flaming is against the ToS.

If you want to continue this argument, do so via pm.

I still like all the Monty Python stuff. Holy Grail probably the best though.
Im told they are a lot funnier when your drunk. Apparently alot of college students watch them.

Totally forgot! Yup, add Life of Brian and Holy Grail to my list!

I do not appreciate having my posts deleted when a simple edit will work if you have a problem with one line of it. Last time I checked, debating the merits of a Star Trek film isn't against the terms of service.



Then clearly you realize how Generations' pathetic excuse for a plot makes no sense at all. Apparently you misunderstood that comment, because I never said you had a 5 year old's intelligence. Just that you (general sense) have to be that stupid to miss the plot holes. We're not talking about something you have to be a Star Trek expert to catch. These are blindingly obvious plot holes so bad that they shatter suspension of disbelief and ruin the movie.



And the newer ones weren't? If they hadn't had the Star Trek name attached, none of the TNG ones would've attracted a decent audience. Admit it, everything after VI was a badly done attempt at making an easy profit.



I see, which makes you look perfectly credible here. Unlike you, I have watched the movies I insult. How is it that you can have such a strong opinion of movies you haven't even watched?

Holy Catfights Batman!

I didn't mean to start a feud (or did i? )

Anyway, I loved the first matrix, star wars 4-7, and Kirk Star Trek

so remeber all, Live long in peace an prosper

Hm, let's see.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy
Ring
Grunge (the Japanese version)
Doctor Zhivago

Oh please, that was a direct insult and you know it. I've had it with you trying to cover your insults and make it look like people have overreacted. My rant was just a reaction to your general attitude that I've had to put up with over the years. In fact I think I've been pretty restrained in not flaming you before now. I'm not going to deny I was flaming also, but I think I'm entitled to a little rant after all this time putting up with you. I may be a moderator but I'm only human.

Either way, let's not fall back down that road, I don't want to spam this thread up with a flamewar. The fact that you think Generations had plot holes is fine. But I don't agree with you and so from your analogy, I must have the intellect of a five year old. How is that not saying I have a five year old's intelligence? I'd just appreciate it if you could show a little more tact/respect for other person's opinions once in a while rather than just insulting them because their opinions happen to differ from your own.



They seemed very well done to me. I sincerely doubt the earlier ones were better but, who knows? I'm sorry but the Original Series itself has soured me to the films with Kirk in. I did watch one of them all the way through (Journey Home or something like that I think) and I wasn't very impressed.



"Original Series cr@p" was a generalised term and perhaps a little bit unfair yes. But from all I've seen of Original Series Star Trek it was low-budget, poorly acted rubbish. But yes I will concede that I haven't actually watched most of the Original Series films, mainly because the Original Series itself soured me to them. I just haven't seen any good evidence that they would be worth my time. I figure anything based off the questionable 1960s view of the 2200s isn't really worth watching.
