I don't think anyone can forget the masterpiece of abomination that is 'The Room'

Let the good acting into your heart, let it soak there for a while, then you will truly know everything.

Ya know I actually liked Little Nicky.
Son of the Mask and Norbit were terrible though.
Jamie Kennedy was only entertaining in what, Scream? Aside from that he's been annoying and unfunny ever since.
Norbit was also kinda hard to watch, what with all the spousal abuse and all...

Tip Toes - God awful. It's a miracle Gary Oldman and Matthew Mcconoghey had a career after this movie.

I dug Little Nicky. I mean, it's awful, but I generally hate Adam Sandler movies. I love his CDs, though. I find his stuff hilarious in 3-5 minute chunks, and agonizing over 90-minute films. But for some reason, Little Nicky was kind of funny, to me. I haven't seen it in forever, though, but I remember me and my wife both liked it.

Except for the scene where Napoleon does his dance, it was an unfunny, boring snoozefest. One man I know said that he liked the movie when he was younger, and as he got older, he wondered what he had been thinking.

"Napoleon Dynamite" is a weird movie. I like it but can totally understand why a lot of people don't. It's not specifically a "comedy" as much as it's just a bunch of quirky characters doing weird things. For some reason, I prefer those kind of movies to more standard comedies like Adam Sandler stuff or The Hangover. Everyone loves those movies, and I just can't get into them. Weird stuff like "The Big Lebowski", though, I find hilarious and can watch on a loop forever and never get bored with. I tend to be more into comical characters than comical situations.

People who don't like Napoleon Dynamite generally say the same thing. "Except for one scene, the movie was brutal". I'm with ya, homie. I dug the Rex-Kwan-Do scene, but the rest was a struggle to watch.

I felt like all the comedy bits didn't click with me. I thought that Garden State had done a similar type of comedy but actually pulled it off. Just my two cents.

^^ I thought it was ok. Napoleon Dynamite is a movie that I kinda liked but it sorta grew on me. But I have no intention of ever watching it again.

My friend tried getting me and a group of our friends to watch this movie, and we couldn't even get through the beginning. It was that God awful...

Oh man, the ending is the best part. A true "coup de grâce" so to speak.

It was so UN-scary it's hilarious! Plus, it had "Norm" from Cheers as an exterminator/adventurer. And that little, uh- dogerpiller? critter, and the big dino-dodo were so CUTE!

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation - It makes the fitdt Mortal Kombat movie look like a classic. Embarrassingly bad acting, Laughable special effects, Horrible writing, it's a mess.

Troll 2 is probably one of the worst films I ever sat through, but its so-bad-it's-good status makes it a must see. My friend got it for me for Christmas one year in a double feature DVD set that included the first Troll film, haha.

Also, I loved the first House film, in all its cheesy glory. Very hard to find people that know about that film. I've seen parts of House II, should probably check it out on Netflix.

That being said…Brian Thompson is a master of his craft.
