Supposedly "great" movies that kind of sucked

I agree that the Lord of The Rings movies are all horrible and they are long and boring...just when those little trolls get to the top of one deadly deadly mountain peak, they look out and see the next deadly deadly mountain they must climb and it's way the fuck away in the background......bastards!


Star Wars is a masterpiece the original trilogy are great movies...the newest 3 are ok I guess, there was no way they could live up to the hype...IMO they should have spun off on a character like Boba Fett...it would have made it easier to meet expectations and different than the original trilogy.


Clockwork Orange is a great movie...loved it. I haven't read the book though it's probably why I'm not as harsh of a critic of it. I would like to read it one day along with 2001: A Space Odyssey parts of which I hear would have been extremely difficult to film even today much less back when it was made.

I liked Fight Club, it didn't change my life but it was good.

Kind of the same way I feel about Chuck Pahlaniuk novels in general. I like them, they wouldn't make a top 50 favorite books list but they're pretty good.

I liked the Lord of the Rings. It was goofy, but I appreciate the fact that they didn't try too hard to act like Frodo and Sam's relationship was solely platonic.
