Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

Funny Games

I watched it in college in a film studies class. It's a well done movie for sure, and it gets its message across without beating you over the head with it. But it's too depressing to watch again.

Same deal with Straw Dogs; just not the kind of thing I'll ever sit down and want to watch.

Stalker
Ilsa: She-Wolf of the SS
Salo
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer
Gummo
El Topo
Holy Mountain

All movies I felt I should see once and I'm fine with never seeing them again with the exception of Ilsa which I probably could have skipped entirely.

Superbad. I enjoyed it very much when it came out because I was 20. I tried watching it about 4 years ago and I turned it off within 5 minutes, unwatchable and thoroughly irritating.

e: I just skipped to the end to see the cock drawing montage

I watched it for the first time last month and spent the entire time having extreme anxiety reliving the sort of inconsequential dumb poo poo early 00s teenagers would get extremely mad at each other for

Most celebrated comedies from that era I would honestly be pretty happy to never watch again, though role models and napoleon dynamite were still p good

I've seen Stalker at least twice but yeah, I can imagine once being enough even though I really like the film.

Holy Mountain, though, at least the first two thirds are still full of weird things I'd forgotten, so seeing that multiple times was rewarding.

Requiem for a Dream


I adore Aronofsky's films, but I was subjected to Requiem for a Dream in high school in a twisted form of D.A.R.E and have absolutely no desire to ever go back to the movie as an adult (Drugs are cool, who gives a gently caress). I'll give it props for depicting a really dark downward spiral that leaves you feeling rotten inside.

"Begotten" is a spooky cult-Internet favourite, and while I appreciate what it did and how it goes about doing it, it's an absolutely torturous watch.

Yeah. And Salo.

And Irreversible.

Also, Mother starring Jennifer Lawrence's face was a piece of poo poo movie that Darren Aronofsky needs to apologize for making because it loving sucked. It wasn't smart. It was just bad.

I was going to say An Elephant Sitting Still because it's 4 hours long but that's not true. I would watch An Elephant Sitting Still again.

If you ever want to watch a good movie about China, make sure that it's banned.

On that note, Xiu Xiu the Sent Down Girl would be a hard second watch for most people but I like sad and have seen it three times.

It had one incredible scene where Lawrence tells Bardem she's pregnant and you can read every thought that crosses his mind, but that's more a testament to Bardem's acting than... anything else in that thing.

Trainspotting was a fantastic film with some horrendously disturbing imagery. If I want to see anything of it I'll go to YouTube and watch Spud take the job interview while on speed or making GBS threads the bedsheets.

I do not wear this mask to protect me. I wear it to protect you from me.

The Star Wars sequels. I've seen Star Wars, Empire and Jedi multiple times. The first two prequels have their moments. The sequels are the worst examples of "Well its Star Wars, don't you like it?" Those movies were put out just to push out something, anything Star Wars.

E: After reading the book Flyboys by James Michener I threw the book away. I realize the importance of the subject but I never want to revisit it again.

Every resident evil movie

I like watching dumb movies sometime but there’s no point in watching any of them again

I assume this is the approach Paul WS Anderson took too and that’s why every Resident Evil movie starts having mostly forgotten what happened in the prior movies.

Wouldn't say I enjoyed it, but it's definitely a powerful movie. Way too hosed up to watch again.

Oh yeah actually this one. The rape scene isn't even that bad, it's the first scene where they catch the guy at the club. poo poo I wish I could unsee. Which is funny because Enter the Void is one of my favorite movies ever.

I appreciated it as someone who's spent a lot of time around boundary-annihilating narcissists, but I agree that I wouldn't see it twice and don't know anyone I'd recommend it to. I'm also not sure "enjoyed" really applies.
