We have all seen films that we thought that were great. Ones that people are talking about for ages afterwards, in some annoying cases copying what the actor’s do/say. And ones that we just loved to watch again.

But we have all also seen films that we thought were total and utter cr*p! And wished that we never had the displeasure of watching them. They are the ones that we would go out of our way not to watch.

For me one of those films would have to 'The Blair Witch'. The story line by itself is ok, but the film does not do it justice! I went to the cinema to see this when it came out (luckily I wasn’t paying) I found myself trying to stay awake through it.

After a while I found that the camera work was bugging be bouncing all over the screen as they run/walk all over the place, away from something that they cant even see. Yeah I know that the idea was to make it look like the camera work was actual camera work was done by amateurs, but they could of at least made it a bit better by adding a little subtle professional camera work.

On thing that I couldn’t understand is how 'some' Americans were killing themselves, because they found it sooo scary. I didn’t find this at all scary; you didn’t even see anything worth being scared of. Yeah I know that they were trying to scar the viewer’s psychologically, but I don’t think that they did it very well personally.

Because I thought the first one was so bad I could never bring myself to watch 'The Blair Witch 2', and I’m glad I didn’t pay to go and see the first one! And I wont be paying to see the next one weather its on VHS, DVD or Cinema.

What films have you seen that you really thought was cr*p and thought they weren’t worth the tape that they were printed on? Why do you think this? C’mon save others from the punishment you had to sit through!

Oh God, I'm sure I've had this argument before... :D

A.I. was pretty much my worst nightmare - I hate Speilburg, and I hate Kubrick. Them, together, on the same film was unbearable.

M:I-2 was nothing on the first film, but hardly unbearable. I mean, Dougray Scott was in it! And you got to laugh at the south African guy... :-D
