I'd add Babel to that list. What a waste of 2+ hours.
1.The Quiet Man which somebody who shall be nameless forced us to watch more than once.
2.My vote is for Hope Springs with Colin Firth - it should have been drowned at birth.
3.MissM says Kill Bill vol 2 - especially because she hadn't seen the first one.
No really, I liked the English Patient.
I have only seen (and for that matter, heard of) a couple of others on your list, but I agree with your assessments of them.
MAGNOLIA.
Seriously I still hold a grudge against that movie for hours of my life I will never get back.
Between it and The English Patient... do not get me started.
My worst are Tin Drum and Zentropa. Shudder.
Never again.
I tend to wipe movies I hate from my mental radar, so all I can think of right now is Practical Magic, because it was on last night when we were flipping channels and we both groaned. Awful. I think Nicole Kidman is SO overrated. And difficult to look at.
I'll have to disagree on The Wizard of Oz. I've seen that a million times with small children and delighted in the fantasy and simplicity of it all.
so true.
I would add Troy and Black Dahlia. They both put me to sleep.
I, too, have never been a fan of The Wizard of Oz and the only thing that pissed me off more than the movie version of Captain Corelli's friggin' Viola was the book. It's one of the few books I have hurled across the room after finishing it. I think I called the author every curse word I could think of. And I know a lot of curse words.
The two movies that epitomize A Total Waste Of Time are, for me, What Dreams May Come and City Of Angels. Horrible, dire, awful, pissed-me-right-off-they-were-so-bad movies.
I just picked up wizard of oz last night in preperation for family viewing...i am about to die of anticipation for my son to see it. Great movies and memories
I like yr blog a lot-
