Movies that you should never buy let alone watch if you don't have to

bad movies | entertainment | Harold and Kumar | Sin City

It's going to be interesting to see how many hits this blogs gets as it's about movies that are a waste of time to watch. Since I'm on the subject of hits that blogs gets, it never ceases to amaze me when I visit this or other sites and see the number hits blogs about such subjects about the male anatomy, particularly, the validity of pills that claim to increase the size, gets.

Anyway, here is the meat, if you will, of this blog. I love to watch movies. I have a stupidly large collection of DVD's as a result of Blockbuster's 3 for $25 and Walmart's inexpensive offerings. I have to admit that in recent years, my standards for owning a movie has dropped because of these prices. You'll find a list of some movies I believe people should never buy let alone watch. You'll also find my sleeper/hidden gem of a movie, which appears to be a waste but will be a winner time and time again. Kick back, pop some popcorn and enjoy this blog without having to try to find joy in these movies.

Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man
I remember this movie came out when I was much younger. I barely recall watching it but recalled how kick arse the title is and it may have been one of the first Rated R movies I was allowed to watch. So with my seven or eight year old stamp of approval I immediately bought it when I saw it at Walmart. Needless to say as soon as I realized it was unrealistically futuristic I never continued watching it.

LA Story
I was using my same young stamp of approval when I purchased this one. I think it's because I thought Sarah Jessica Parker (whose name I can't pronounce correctly as it always comes out as Sarica Jessica Parker) was hot and Steve Martin is funny. Well, Steve Martin is funny, she was hot in the movie but the story is just so ridiculous and the woman he falls in love with is kind of wierd, and it's a love movie, movies I try to boycott like not other.

Date Movie
Now I didn't buy this movie but I saw it in the theatre recently and it really sucked. I had planned to movie hop with my girlfriend that day and was stoked to be at the movies. Little did I know that this horrible offering would suck the movie love out of me for that day. I don't think I have bought a new movie since seeing it either. This movie was horrible. It showed brief signs of life but I sure could have waited to watch this on basic cable or better yet never seen it. I use it in my defense to never see a love movie again when my girlfriend tells me she wants to see a new love movie. So I guess that is a plus...

Sin City: Deluxe Edition
Now many of you are probably ready to burn me at the stake for even having this film up there. Hold on and let me state my case. It's nearly impossible to tell what the additional 18 minutes of footage are. It also sucks (insert choice phrase here) to have to go back to the menu and choose the new story each time. I'd rather just watch it in it's entirety. So save yourself the extra $10-$15 and get the regular edition.

Hidden Gem/Sleeper Movie-Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle
When I first saw this movie in the previews, I thought it was going to be one of the stupidest movies ever. My days of dealing with that crown were passed not to mention I had no idea what White Castle was since I live in Hawaii. This movie is "off the chain mang". I loved just about every minute of it. They way that Doogie Howser's Neil Patrick Harris was portrayed had me dying of laughter. The "I'm a Business Hippy" line was one of the greatest lines I've ever heard. At any rate this was a winner and motivated me to get some frozen White Castle Cheeseburgers, which are truly amazing I might add.

That's it for now, stay tuned for more movies. Aloha

I watched Harold and Kumar,

I watched Harold and Kumar, and I thought it looked stupid too. But now it's a total guilty pleasure. "Dude, Where's My Car" was unbearable, but Harold and Kumar was pretty funny.

I completely agree about Walmart lowering your standards due to low prices. I have so many $5.88 Walmart movies that I haven't even watched most of them. lol

So high...Not low

Harold and Kumar is one of the funniest movies of the past decade. I could sit and watch that movie over and over and over again.
