Bad parts in good movies
I could never shake the cheesy crumbling of the last demon in evil dead, it looked awful. I know they didt have the budget but it has always stuck out to me.
The Hoot speech in balck hawk down: "When I get home people 'll ask me, "Hey Hoot, why do ya do it man? Why? Just some war junkie?" Ya know what I'll say? I won't say a goddamn word. Why? They won't understand. They won't understand why we do it. They won't understand that it's about the men next to you, and that's it. That's all it is. "
This scene always flet way over done to me... Didnt care for it at all.
Anyways what are your favortie "Bad parts in a good movie?"

I like The Patriot, but this exchange:
Benjamin: May I sit with you?
Charlotte: It's a free country - or at least, it will be.
...always makes me groan.

The part in Pulp Fiction that makes me cringe the most is when Wolf (Keitel) is with his daughter or niece (Raquel?) at the junkyard place and he throws out some just awful joke and she displays one of the worst acting jobs I have ever seen when all she has is 1 line. It makes me cringe everytime.

That last third of Hulk and Van Helsing. Yep. I thought Van Helsing was actually decent until they got into the whole deal of him being bitten and Frank swinging around on the wires.
Didn't like Legolas doing his skateboard bit in LOTR:TTT either. While cool, it really could have taken a lot of people out of the movie.

the scenes with Annette Bening in "Open Range" are the most recent example for me.
I would also nominate the Peter/MJ dialog scenes from both Spider-man films.
And I LOVE the cheesy demon crumbling from Evil Dead, especially that little green worm that comes out. Classic!

M Night's horrible acting in Signs. Why did he let himself be in a movie along side such a stellar cast? Surely he must have known that he would look like crap compared to them.

Laughable. Frankly, the film has several substantial writing deficiencies and a few pretty lackluster performances as well. That film is all about the action sequences.

Spiderman, when that dude said something like "You mess with him you mess with all of us" while throwing cans at the Goblin. I know this was New York spirit, but it just bugs me. Same thing with Spiderman 2, "If you want him you'll have to go through us". Give me a break. Sheese.

I personally don't like the 'preview' of Back To The Future III at the end of Part II, they should have had a trailer or something at the end of the credits instead. Kind of takes away from that whole 'cliffhanger' ending.

Top Gun, near the end at the ceremony, when the commander calls Wolfman's name or whoever, he snaps his head 
The big 80's sunglasses in Top Gun look pretty bad as well, maybe they use CGI to change them or something.
