MelissaInPhilly Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Since we're talking about everything besides football here, I'm just wonderng: did you ever like a movie that was critically panned and/or was a flop? Yes, I enjoyed "Catwoman." It was terrible, but entertaining, if that makes any sense. And I got to see my beloved Benjamin Bratt naked (just from the waist up, shucks!) Some very nice cameos of kitties, too. But I still wonder how you can fight crime in stillettos and skin-tight leather??? I also enjoyed "Waterworld," Kevin Costner's colossal flop. I think I was the only one in the theater for that one. Mariner Rules! And don't forget "Far and Away" with Tom and Nicole when they were an item. I am one "chick" that generally doesn't like chick movies, yet I enjoyed this one so much I bought it. It was a major flop and the critics hated it . . . but what do they know?

Bill from NYC Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Few people liked the movie "Blow." I thought it was literally great. "The Cotton Club" was also something of a flop, and I think it is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Then again, I seem to be one who goes against the grain.

SF Bills Fan Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Road House is a terrible movie in many ways, but it is quite likeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoser12 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 water boy and big daddy are 2 that come to mind - my wife rags constantly that adam sandler is a yo yo but still I think peeing on the wall and tackling people for no reason are cool movie clips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mariner Rules! 384659[/snapback] I thought I was the only one. I friggin' loved Waterworld. All people do here in 2005 is complain how every movie is the same old crap. At least Waterworld was different. Kevin Costner had gills, he was almost eaten by a giant mutant fish, and we got to check out Denver at the bottom of the ocean. And Denis Hopper was hilarious as the villian. "Not Another Teen Movie" was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent! 384685[/snapback] Blow was a good movie, as is just about any movie with Johnny Depp. He's the kind of actor who raises up a poor surrounding cast or a bad script and always turns in a good performance. He's kinda like John Malkovich in that sense, and speaking of Malkovich, "Con Air" was a pretty lousy movie that i liked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of BiB Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Congo, to me is a fun movie. Killed in the ratings, and the theater. I can watch it over again. Laura Linney, in character in that movie is a woman I'd like to meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasper13 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Waterboy was a freaking great movie. Three sports movie sequels that mostly everybody thought stunk badly but I didn't (wouldn't say I loved them but didn't hate them either) Bad News Bears: Breaking Training SlapShot 2 Major League III- Back to the Minors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
