I'm 60% that guy. I saw five of the movies on his list and thought that three of them sucked ass.:D

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

The Master

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Argo
Zero Dark-Thirty

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

In no particular order

Cosmopolis - might have a philosophy behind it, but absolutely no fun to watch
The Five Year Engagement - Painfully unfunny
Casa De Mi Padre - Hunh!?! (I think I got the joke - in the first 3 minutes)
The Three Stooges - I remember Kingpin - what the hell happened to these guys?
The Raven - Could have been campy fun - instead was campy boredom
Lawless - on my list because it could have been so good!
That's My Boy - I know it was supposed to be dumb, and it delivered
Men in Black III - durrrr
Mac and Devin go to High School - If only I still smoked weed
This Means War - It was on my film list, and I had to look it up on imdb... so bad, such a waste of some good actors...

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

In a theater this year it would be

The Expendables 2.

Too many to mention on DVD that were terrible except Grave Encounters 2. Really liked the first one the second I could barely get through. It sucked. Thanks to Amazon it was free on VOD.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Men In Black 3 >>>>> Prometheus. And I've never liked a Barry Sonnenfeld movie before, and I'm entirely too much of a Ridley Scott apologist. This year has been weird, man...

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Silent Hill: Crapfest >>>>>>>> Prometheus.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

:lol:

Good grief.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Oh man I forgot about That's My Boy. That was a horrible fucking movie.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Yeah no. The fact Charlize Theron and Michael Fassbender show up in a few scenes makes it better by default.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

The two that REALLY let me down were The Amazing Spider-Man and Bourne Legacy. I didn't think that Spider-Man would be great, but it was barely good. Legacy really shit on the Bourne...um...legacy.

If The Hunger Games came out this year (I'm too lazy to research it), it's by far the worst movie I saw in theaters this year. What a pile of trash.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Worst wide releases of the year, in alphabetical order:

<ol><li><b>Snow White and the Huntsman</b></li></ol>

That is all.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

As someone who liked the Alien films but never felt strongly about them, I enjoyed Prometheus. I think people held Ridley to too-high standards.

As someone who made the mistake of seeing <b>Robin Hood</b> in theaters, I know the bitter taste of disappointment. I had no expectations going in and they were surpassed.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

This isn't even the worst movie starring Charlize Theron.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Yeah 'Prometheus' was terrible. What a complete failure as a film. 'Robin Hood' was a masterpiece by comparison.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Exactly, most sci-fi geeks in this forum were let down because Prometheus didn't give them a major hard on and make them ejaculate in their pants. ;)

I thought it was okay. Not a masterpeice, but far from the worst. It wasn't Ridley's best work, but still a visually impressive science fiction movie. Hell, I went ahead and got the 3-disc BD.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

I liked Prometheus. Great effects and three of my favorite actors in one movie.

The only semi-decent Alien movie before was Alien (Aliens was only good in the dumb way all Cameron movies are), anyway. I guess it helps that I never really worshiped the franchise before.

In fact, it's still the only movie that has anything to do with the franchise that I own on Blu.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Actually, I was let down because of the massive gaps in logic.

I still enjoyed it, for the most part, but the script was undoubtedly the film's worst enemy. A few decent ideas, some interesting bits of interpretation, and a lot of dubiousness.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Prometheus wasn't perfect by any means but I didn't hate it as much as some of you. Maybe it's because I was never the hugest Alien fan to begin with I guess. I like them to an extent but the franchise was never really something I'd consider a favorite. I will agree that Prometheus had it's share of problems though.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Slayer was extremely painful to sit through. What an awful CGI infused crap fest. The 2 minute trailer for That's My Boy already told me it would be garbage.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

:up: I completely agree.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

+ 1

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Hardly. First off, I rarely watch a film that has a high probability of sucking so my list can't include Sandra Bullock romcom's and movies like Battleship. Second, why would I list 3 films that practically no one has ever heard of if my main purpose is to rip on successful movies? And finally, I loved Dark Knight Rises, Prometheus and American Reunion, which pokes a lot of holes in your theory that I only wanted to bash "popular/successful" movies. Because if that were the case Dark Knight Rises would probably appear at number one.

The truth is, the movies I listed just weren't very good. Deal with it.

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

Why would you make that your main purpose?

Re: Worst of the year 2012
 

I don't know, but thats what I was accused of.
