Charles Bukowski posted: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. That and the dream montages at the liquor store are two scenes that will always hold up The rest of the film is hit or miss

Toxic Mental posted: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 dunno. Enter The Void just seemed like the same old poo poo from Irreversible. Misery porn. There's a good number of Coen brother movies I don't really care to watch again. Burn after reading was first to come to mind. But then there's Buster Scruggs, No Country, Barton Fink, The Man who wasn't there, and Fargo. They did Adaptation too, right? Edit: Nope that was Kaufman

The second one, Mr. Bean’s Holiday, has Willem Dafoe playing himself playing a pretentious movie director taking the piss out of movies like the ones listed in this thread. He’s great.

That was the most frustratingly uncomfortable movie I’ve ever seen. I can’t say it’s bad. It’s just something i could never recommend to anyone without a massive disclaimer. Also don’t watch it on a plane where you are also trapped like the main character

1secondpersecond posted:Movies that you enjoyed, found meaningful, or otherwise thought had value that you never plan to watch a second time; what are they? For me, it's The Act of Killing. One of the best treatments I've seen of the Indonesian genocide/political purge, but I really, really don't ever intend to watch it again. There are probably a few dozen movies I liked but did not want to see another time, I had HBO as a kid in the 1990's.

Dick Jones posted:BioDome When I was a teen i knew a guy who rented this every weekend and he would have watched it at least three times before returning it. The group of us also rented something called 'Executions'. It was basically liveleak before the internet - and probably illegal. Biodome fanatic was the guy who rewinded Executions to watch the death scenes again. I'm not sure how these two facts are related but they have to be, somehow.

The Johnny Depp Willy Wonka movie. Also, Dark Shadows, starring, you guessed it, Johnny Depp. Two of the shittiest rear end butt poop Tim Burton/Johnny Depp movies I’ve ever had the displeasure of watching. Just awful.

kntfkr posted: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 watched this one twice and enjoyed it but the second time was with my parents, and at the end of it, my dad said, "I don't think this was a good movie, in fact I think it was despicable and everyone involved should be shot". I am very bad at predicting parental reactions to movies and we've been watching them together for ~35 years. Apollodorus posted:Yeah same on this one. Yep, I generally like the Cohen brothers and on some level I appreciated that this was just a total inversion of every feel-good Western trope. But, despite Clint being a fuckin shithead, I think Unforgiven more or less did the same thing, much earlier, and without being as mercilessly cruel to the audience as Scruggs was. The Tom Waits bit was sort of the only bright spot for me, but the Liam Neeson bit was so loving obnoxiously black hearted that it filled me with mild rage. I've never seen Miller's Crossing and I don't know that I ever will; at least one of their movies (Hudsucker Proxy) is on my all time top-10 american movies list, but wow are they all over the map. My parents showed me Barton Fink when I was 13 or 14 and it scared the living poo poo out of me, and No Country is dark and scary as gently caress, but both of those movies appear to me to have "interesting poo poo going on" that Scruggs didn't, Scruggs was like being hit in the head with a hammer six times in a row. I guess it was originally going to be released a serialized thing, maybe that would have made it more palatable, but I sort of doubt it. poo poo is just hosed up.

Milo and POTUS posted:buster scruggs owned, sorry haters for a movie I passionately dislike and will not watch again, it was thought provoking and took me a full 48hrs to settle on how I felt about it. Right there that elevates it above about 90% of the poo poo I've consumed as far as making me put some work in. That said, gently caress that movie. On the other hand, Tammy and the T-Rex absolutely should make this list but I've seen it two or three times and I bet I'll double that before I die   lol I had completely forgotten this movie was how Denise Richards name got put on the map. Or, some maps, anyway. Maps of Dangerous Animal Parks. which contain dinosaurs, for some reason

Valko posted:Pretty sure the earliest thing I remember Denise Richards in was an episode of Seinfeld. looks like she had a whole bunch of 1-shot TV appearances, of which that is on the higher profile side, but Tammy is indeed her first film credit. Er, movie, that may have been a shot-on-betamax deal. Then more tv shows for 3 years, then Starship Troopers which is funny because I would have seen ST a couple times around the same time I watched Tammy & The T-Rex the first time, but do not remember connecting it.

Beavis & Butthead do the Universe. It’s ok but Do America is so much better, or just rewatching the reboot. Universe felt like Judge was shakily figuring out the characters again but it hadn’t quite clicked yet, it’s so much better when they’re interacting with a sane world, rather than existing in a zany world.

I literally just finished watching this a half hour ago and I agree. The only thing I laughed at was when the Michael Bolton song started playing.

Buster Scruggs was hit and miss, but the last short with the stagecoach was phenomenal. People keep saying Mother! by Darren Aranofsky, which I haven't seen, but I keep thinking of Mother by Bong Joon Ho. That was a fantastic movie, but far bleaker than anything else I've seen in this thread.

Buster Scruggs was great from front to back. I mean the cartoon cowboy, Liam Neeson and the torso, the wagon train, Tom Waits, ...First Time?, and the stagecoach? I mean there's no misses there.
