Speaking of over-rated '80s comedies, what about Ferris Bueller's Day Off? I mean it's actually a fairly decent movie, which is a lot more than I can say for Raising Arizona, but I saw it so many times I just got soooo freaking bored with it...and everybody else still thinks it's the shit. I don't care if I ever see Ferris Bueller's Day Off again, but seriously FUCK RAISING ARIZONA!!! Normally, I'm more respectful of other people's opinions but just thinking about that movie FUCKING PISSES ME OFF!!!!! AAAAAARRRRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

I love the Coen Brothers, but I HATE RA with a passion. I find it hard to believe the makers of Fargo and The Big Lebowski created that garbage. It's painful to watch.

True Romance, I have several friends who think it's da bomb, but I remain fully unimpressed with it.

Fight Club.

I've tried watching it twice and it didn't work for me either time. Found it pretty boring myself.

Urban Legend was MUCH better. The only thing Scream had going for it was the first 10 minutes.

Me?
People seem to love everything Heath Ledger does (now) and he really sucks.

I Put it to you that the film has nothing to do with the story of the titanic, the movie coulda been called Boat and it woulda made no difference, it was a 90's Chick Flick that happend to be set on the titanic. nothing more.

[QUOTE=oxley;2174276]I'm no massive Leo fan, but he has done a few films I really like him in Titanic, Blood Diamond, Gangs Of New York and Shutter Island. Apart from those (that I've seen) I don't like the guy.

You should see him in the Basketball Diaries.
I think he is a consistently great actor.

I love Dragnet and Splash.

At least they were funny back then. Comedy is dreadful now. What passes for humor now does not even make me giggle. It just sucks. I actually avoid the newer ones now because of that.

It had more balls, and had better acting/direction to back it up. The story may have been cliché in places but the execution was solid.

The only thing Scream had going for it was the first 10 minutes.

Even that came off as weak to me.

I never cared for him at all until he played the Joker. He really hit that one out of the park. Other than that, he has not done anything else I would care for in the least.

U-571 is bullshit. It is very historically inaccurate and one-sided. I love submarine movies but that one really pissed me off.

I love Cars. Seen it many times.
