Any J-Lo rom-com. I caught the beginning of the Wedding Planner on TV the other day and is worst the biggest pile of c&*! i have ever clapped eyes on
 
What are your list of films that you absolutely refuse to see, despite all the hype and critical acclaim?

Mine is the 2005 War of the WorlRAB with Tom Cruise. For God's sake, if I want to see War of the WorlRAB, I want to see Croydon being destroyed, not sodding New York!
 
If you're not too keen on the plot, skip through to the battle scenes in The Two Towers and The Return of the King. They are spectacular.
 
Same here thought the matrix was so over rated

Any james bond films I havent seen one of them all the way through and i have tried i either fall asleep or wonder off so i just avoid them now
 
They were more drovers than cowboys. I did not see them doing anything with herding cows apart from Jack and his rodeo. Plenty of sheep droving though.
 
well said behe, me i dont want to see any i know what you sawed up last jason the halloween cos i might make 13 more of em.

horror films died with the thing and the original fog
 
Are you nuts? The sinking takes up half the film and is an awesome spectacle. Many don't care for the romance plot in the first half; personally I didn't dislike it. But the recreation of the sinking in all its glorious horror is an amazing achievement, and no one can deny that. It probably deserved an Oscar for that alone.
 
Let's see:

American teen comedy
Horror
Anything with Tom Cruise in it
Anything to do with 9/11
Disaster films
Anything that comes with a trailer packed with pointless action
 
I bet you would like Elf if you saw it; its not one of those frat-packers movies but instead is a sweet and charming and gently comical christmas tale. Give it a go, it might make you change your mind about Mr Ferrell. Personally I find him one of the funniest of the recent crop of comedy actors. The films they do are never terribly good but he always makes his part funny ie Ron Burgundy or the guy in Wedding Crashers (in which he made Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson look like a couple of hopeless amateurs comedy-wise).

Does your second point rule of Goodfellas? Its amazing. But very violent in bits. But you gotta see it!
 
What if he is, it's his opinion and that's the kind of movie he and plenty of others don't wanna see. Ever.

Harry frickin potter
Lord of the bloody rings
Brokenback mounting
anything with freddie prinze in
 
No, there weren't. There was never any books until long after the movies. The writer initially called them Eps 4, 5 & 6 to make them seem like a matinee serial (a la Flash Gordon). He later said there should be nine parts in the whole story. He (fifteen years later) went back and wrote the backstory (that became 1-3), and said that 7-9 will never be written. 4-6 is one story, and all in the right order. Any movie-buff should see them, if only because they pretty much changed cinema forever (creating the "summer blockbuster"). The new (prequel) trilogy can be happily ignored as a pretty bad idea.

Back to topic, I'd rather eat my own feet than see the remake of The Wicker Man. Not only is it sacrilege as to a classic British film, but it seems to have been re-worked into a misogynistic diatribe.
