WOW I can't believe so many CAGS like Shoot em up. I like mindless action movie too but the action scenes in this film were so boring. I was looking forward to it after watching the kickass trailers but the gun battles falls flat on its face. Even Monica Bellucci's sex scene couldn't save it.

Saw these ones, and none of them were horrible enough to be on the Worst of the Year list (especially not Lars or Wild Hogs, out now on DVD and Blu-Ray disc)

Cool, thanks Lice.
As already stated, Shoot 'Em Up, doesn't belong on the list. It's so obvious that it's not trying to be serious and just fun and it usually works well.
I think Southland Tales's bad rap is a bit unfair too. It's absolutely flawed, and messy, but at the same time, at least aspires to be something different, and will surprise you. Even if it's a little pretentious.
In a way, it's like Shoot 'Em Up in that some of the things that seem lame or over the top are done within a certain logic. Although it's nothing like Shoot 'Em Up in terms of context and style.
Not everyone will like it, but it's probably worth checking out on DVD, if you liked Donnie Darko (same director).
Oh, yeah and RE: Extinction sucked balls. When did the zombies in RE become DoD Remake Zombies? Why didn't all those clone bodies decompose? Why does Millia Jovoich have to be
ing Neo in Resident Evil? This didn't even feel anything like a movie, but a bunch of shitty one-off scenes glued together with CG blood.

THIS.
Sadly, I saw almost every single film on the list. How Bratz didn't take absolute top spot on both lists is beyond me.

[quote name='dcfox']Could it be because Resident Evil was actually good this time around?[/quote]
Bad news, kiddo...you have a terrible taste in films. And cancer...I won't tell you where though. Because that would spoil all the fun.

[quote name='Fragonard']I don't see shitty movies, so I can't comment on any of these.
I can however say that Zodiac was great and if you didn't understand the ending, you missed the point.[/quote] How hard is it to understand the Zodiac movie? It wasn't like Donnie Darko or anything, I mean, it was based on aing true story. Great film btw, among my favorites this year with Grind house and no country making the top...
Also that guy who says ocean's 13 was a shit movie, that was hilarious and a great heist film.

Thats what I was getting at. If someone doesn't understand the point of the movie, they should stick to movies on the top 10 worst movie list. They will feel right at home.

I'm definitely biased towards Zodiac since David Fincher is my favorite director (What? Panic Room? Never heard of it...SHUT UP) of my favorite film ever, Fight Club.

I can appreciate absurdist films, and I understand and acknowledge what Shoot 'em Up was trying to achieve... but it was just plain poor film making.
The only thing it had going for it was a.) capable actors and b.) some solid acting... but that couldn't save the vapid script, TERRIBLE special effects and vanilla photography.

Zodiac was pretty sweet.
It was one of the first movies where I felt I really got my money's worth from the hi-def.
That opening scene is just breathtaking.

I understood it. That's the problem, I was expecting an exciting mystery movie. I wasn't prepared for a 3 hour real life story.
Those kinds of movies you have to go in with that sort of mind set. I'd watch it again, but I don't want to do another 3 hour movie...

Just another way of saying I agree with you (ie; QFT).
[quote name='Ugamer_X']Well, at least now we know why you want to kill yourself.[/QUOTE]
I guess deep down it would be one of the reasons. Not that I actually sat down and watched every movie on the list, but I have seen a chunk of each of those films at least.
