Mega Hits you didn't like...

[iamwhatiseem]

For me... I totally didn't get "Home Alone".
To this day I have no understanding why people liked this movie so much.
The comedy is all slap stick, which is okay... but poorly done slapstick. There were so many technical errors in the film that it probably ranks in the top 10 films with the most problematic scenes,
Also to this day, when you ask everyone involved... the writers, producers, studio, actors - director... none can explain why the movie became such a monster hit.

Lord of the Rings Trilogy

I just don't care

Armageddon...
I will get a lot of hate for that.
But sorry. It was a horrible movie with the worst Aerosmith song ever recorded.

The Avengers.

I'm not a big fan of the Marvel Comics movies to begin with, but this one just seems like a pointless exercise in giving the various characters some screen time.

Thank you!
I don't either. They are too damn long. I am not interested enough to watch nearly 12 hours of it.

Rocky Horror Picture Show...
What a piece of crap.

Almost everything Aerosmith has done after 1980 is terrible.

That wasn't a mega hit, it's a cult movie.

That wasn't a mega hit, it's a cult movie.

The cult would disagree.

Well, then, it's cult crap.

Including the concerts.

OK….I’ll go there

Star Wars

I think it is poorly written with great actors spouting lame dialogue. Mostly an excuse to sell overpriced toys.

I never saw a Star Wars movie until the 1980's when I was on leave at my Mom's and she had HBO.

It was breakout movie. Before it, there was really-really bad space sci-fi (exception of course Space Odyssey)
When I saw it I was the perfect age for a space sci fi. 12 years old. I was BLOWN AWAY. Darth Vader was the coolest thing I had ever seen before. The voice, the breathing... telekinesis... coolest evil guy of all time.
Then came Empire Strikes Back... I was 15. Yay!... awesome! More Darth Vader! And we get several scenes with the emperor... also cool!
Then came Return of the Jedi... I was 18. It sucked. I was very disappointed. And have been every time since. Revenge of the Sith being the only one that is good.
Star Wars was created and ruined by the same guy.

I don't hate the film, but in my opinion, it has way too sad of an ending. Did you know that another copy of that song went to radio not long after the film was released? I am happy to share that it went all the way to #1 too for the awesome singer.



God bless you and Mark always!!!

P.S. Getting back to the real subject of this chat, the only films that I can list are those that I have only seen once, but I am sure that plenty of them weren't all that major in too many other people's opinions as well. Then there are the big films that I haven't even seen before, and that list too would also be a long one and it would most likely only make y'all wonder where it is that I am being held captive.
