Hit the nail on the head, Cure. 1999-2003 was the golden era of Spongebob, then it went south. By the time the movie was made, I wanted the series to die in a fire, it was so awful.

I still watch it to see how they are going to wrap up the Steve Carrell era, but this show is close to jumping the shark for me. I'm hoping they end the show before too long, since I just can't see how it's going to last without Michael Scott. It would be like 24 without Jack Bauer.

Well i kinda agree with you,this season has been VERY hit and miss,some Classic episodes,and a few of the WORST...Now with Will Ferrell on board for (at least) four episodes,and them bring Todd Packer as a regular character, i think it's pivotal to the success of the show...

Italian bread from Subway... Used to eat it all the time and then one time I got a sammy and I got sick later in the evening, probably wasn't related to the sandwhich itself but I've stayed clear ever since...

Darkman's script was a cheeply dont Batman script. The comics are a little better tho.

Power Rangers. Why did I do that to my parents?

Because Batman deals with a scientist who gets blown up in his lab by mobsters and exacts revenge on them by copying their faces to get close to them. ;) I think it's a stretch to say, "Yeah, Batman ripoff."

In regard to SpongeBob SquarePants, wasn't that always bad? :p I've always seen it as kind of a cheap, less gross copy of Ren & Stimpy—not the good Ren & Stimpy, but the Games episodes.

Answered your own question right there. Also Army of Darkness sucked ass.

What? Clearly not to the people who like it. Do you not get the point of the thread?

Right. Because that movie is totally funny and a rip roaring roller coaster ride and not a lame overly long cheese fest.

I love Evil Dead 2 but AOD is just terrible.

Take the sarcasm out, and you're spot-on. ;) It is hilarious. Not even sure how many times I've seen it and still enjoy it immensely every time.

I like the first two flicks more, but AOD is close.

To be fair, you either love it or despise it. You obviously are the latter, which is fine.

Abnormal Freak · 02-23-2011, 07:54 PM

I personally have never heard of anyone disliking AOD, to be honest. You either love it as a horror fan, or you love it as just a casual movie fan. People of all film tastes whom I've known have absolutely loved it.

Well, it currently holds an 85% on Rotten Tomatoes so I think it is pretty safe to say that the majority of people out there like it. Just for some people it doesnt click.

wilddiverse · 02-24-2011, 12:36 AM

Tequila.
Cereal with marshmallows.

*shuriken* · 02-24-2011, 01:07 AM

^^this. When I was younger i thought cereals with Marshmallows in them were amazing. but now it's just kinda gross.
I like Burton's Batman movies quite a bit actually. I'm not crazy about the guy but it's hit or miss for me. Although I thought Sleepy Hollow kinda sucked, and I enjoy Depp's work a lot.
Hrmm. I really liked Linkin Park when I was like 12. But after Meteora/Crash Course it's all been really meh to me.
Family guy seems to just annoy me more tha actually make me laugh. Although the older eps are still pretty random and funny.
Nicholas Cage movies, Con Air, Face Off, and The Family Man for one. I still find Con Air to be pretty good, but that has more to do with Buscemi and Malcovich than Cage. The other two I used to like, but after watching them recently they are pretty bad.
DBZ is another one. I still like the battle scenes but how many times does a chracter have to gawk at how powerful someone is? I swear if there was at least %50 less gawking the show would be infinitely better.

Oddly enough, I can't appreciate AoD the way I once did. I originally though of it as a horror parody (pretty much an alternative to Ghostbusters), and loved the hell out of it for that. Got, into the previous films later, hated the first (and still do), but find the second to have the most replay value. I can only watch AoD maybe twice a year w/o getting sick of it.

**Machias Banshee** · 02-24-2011, 02:55 PM

Soda and pre-made iced tea... basically any pre-bottled drinks. I've gotten away from any kind of food/drinks with the high fructose corn syrup, and man can I taste it now...

The only drink I tolerate now are homemade lemonade, coffee, tea, milk and ice water. The only soda I'll drink is ginger-ale when I'm sick...
