films you've seen at the cinema and regret you hadn't
i had time to kill today so i went to the cinema. saw vi was showing. i'd never previously seen a saw film, and thought i might not 'get' it. i handed the woman my £6, thinking 'this might just be worth it, but then again it might not be'. five minutes into the film and i had sussed it all out and predicted the end, and yet i didn't want to leave. i came out loathing the film, but not as much as i came out loathing myself for going in the first place.
anyone had a similar experience?

GRAMMAR QUESTION:
SHOULD THE TITLE BE 'HAD'?
that wouldn't really make much of a difference, it's a bad title
Films you have regretted seeing at the cinema
My answer is The Mask
aaaaarrrrggggghhhhh
That would probably sound so much better in French.
Des films vous avez regretté voir au cinéma
maybe
Je regrette rien
à l’exception de Le Masque
But wouldn't it be?
Des films QUE vous avez regretté voir au cinéma? non?
tee hee
Obviously
hey fuck you
i saw The Happening at the cinema. oh wow unbelievably bad and boring
Your thread title is giving me a headache
I think you mean an incredible two hours of entertainment.
How could you not love that film? It was probably one of the best comedies I saw last year. Amazing dialogue too - "what's happening?" "why is this happening to us?" "how could it be happening?!"
this'd about the happening, dont care bout title
Spanglish
Truly truly awful.
Oh, and Pirates of the Carribbean 2 and 3. Never got in to those.
*into
Final Destination 3D
Be Kind Rewind
you could pretty much see the post production meeting.
"So...it's ummm...crap"
"Yep"
"But can we sell it to mongs?"
"Well indie mongs might find points (A) (B) and (C) just about vacantly whimsical enough to quote and there's at least 2 nervous laughs in there somewhere"
"About the complete lack of charm, sixth-form structure, woeful script and clunkily raped-together ending?"
"Indie Mongs"
[rubberstamp]
i saw the first five minutes and turned it off.
never looked at mos def in the same way since. michel gondry should probably just stick to really incredible music videos, instead of really boring films.
what about the 'Science of Sleep'
and 'Eternal Sunshine...' though, both of those were pretty ace.
I just heard the premise and wondered how they ever got it made in the first place.
Sounded incredibly dumb.
sorry but I like it
I like it it's nice
Anti 'indie' film cynicism gets on my nerves, not everything has to be a work of art
I have never seen a Saw film
and yet have no hesitation in saying that I am a superior being to people who like them. I mean, there's subjectivity and there's being honest. These people are a waste of natural resources and we'd be better off burning them to fuel our homes.
The first Saw movie is just a goofy horror film.
The second one is a pretty bad goofy horror film.
The third one is so awe-inspiringly shit that no one with an IQ above 39 could possibly sit through it for more than fifteen minutes.
I can only assume it gets exponentially worse from there.
so you either sat through it to be able to make judgement which means you have an iq >40 and your judgement really wouldn't be worth trusting anyway
or you watched less than 15 minutes on it and is makeing judgement about the entire film from that, which it could be argued is pretty dumb anyway.
I made it about twelve minutes, and trust me, I knew.
This is also the most stupidly predictable thing you could have said.
couldn't help myself
i have no doubt in my mind that you are actually right
the first Saw film is excellent
really innovative and well executed. I like the second one too. Haven't seen the others.
When I worked in a cinema, they definitely attracted the meathead crowd who couldn't find their mouths to put the popcorn in.
One guy's girlfriend was sick at how gross it was and she wanted to leave - he told her she could go and he'd come and find her later. Lovely sounding chap.
the 1st saw film is actually very very good
Batman and Robin, on the other hand, was just an utter waste of money. See also: Love Actually
catwoman
CATWOMAN
FUCKING CAT FUCKING WOMAN
that jane austen film with kiera poutface knightley
Tomb Raider 2
wow that's even worse that what you think it might be if you haven't seen it. The worst movie of all time.
saw the first one
was so disappointed i got rid of all my tomb raider games. apart from ii, i lost that one.
SPEEEEEEEEEEEED RACER
The Ugly Truth
I knew it would be shit. I have no excuses really
Spiderman 3...or whatever
Seriously? I'm glad I didn't bother with the other Spiderman films.
worst date ever
the first Spiderman is good, the second one excellent
the third is a mess
Love Actually
i was forced to go, pretty much. One of the worst films i've ever seen full stop, let alone at the cinema.
500 Days Of Summer
I didn't think I was going to like it, but fuck me that was worse than I could even have imagined.
Step Brothers.
I don't know what I was thinking. Probably the worst film I've ever seen in the cinema.
The Avengers
White Chicks
on a date, words fail me.
one of my all-time favourite films
Pearl Harbour.
A million times, Pearl Harbour.
Lost in Space
Though this feels partly redeemed by there not being a sequel. That'll teach them not to do a proper ending.
King Arthur
AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL.
Katyn and Mesrine: Killer Instinct
Wasted £10 + £7.20 in rail travel going to see those two. Really winds me up considering I've missed let the right one in, in the loop and thirst this year.
