    1. Showgirls- I thought boobs could save any movie. This one proves that theory incorrect. I was 16 or 17 when I saw it in the theater and I was ready to walk out, but I saw it with a couple of my friends. When the movie was over I mentioned I wanted to walk out about 30 minutes into it. Both of my friends thought the same thing, but didn't think the others would want to go.

    2. The Avengers- I saw this a long time ago, and really can't remember much about it. I just know I the pall of boredom that overcame me.

    3. Speed- Made me want to never see a Keanu Reeves move ever again. (Finally gave in and watched The Matrix last week, yeah I hated Speed that much!) It was just so stupid and the continuity errors are abundant. (Watch for the cameras reflected off the bus for example)

    4. Brotherhood of the Wolf- I didn't understand it. Maybe it was because I was sleepy when I saw it. But nonetheless, there wasn't much entertainment value to it for me.

    5. The Net- Did anyone else see this? Best thing about this movie was David Spade mentioning it in a "Hollywood Minute" segment on SNL. (Did you see the movie about the talking pig? That's right Sandra Bullock in The Net. Or something to that effect)

    6. Natural Born Killers- Would've been an okay movie if it would've ended when I thought it was going to. But when you add that next hour that followed, it becomes torturous. Not a being a fan of Juliette Lewis also hurts this one.

    7. Independence Day- I really like Will Smith and the movie had a cameo by Harry Connick Jr. to boot, but Bill Pullman drags every movie down.

    8. Twister- I never thought you could root for a tornado. Then I saw Twister. Nice CGI, but what was the point. Coolest thing about the movie was when leaving the theater, a thunderstorm was starting to make its way toward us.

    9. Con-Air- I just can't get past Cage's ridiculous accent! Didn't anyone have the guts to tell him he sounded nearly retarded? Why did he need to have the accent anyway? Argh!!!

    10. Renaissance Man- DeVito in the army... 'nuff said.

    That's the first ten that came to mind.

    HAHAHA!!!! I forgot about Renaissance Man... that movie was HORRIBLE! Great call RetardKing. It had the nice happy ending with everyone showing up and passing their tests... it would have been better if they had been called into combat and left DeVito to pout and do some PT.

    Okay, let me break some of this down for you because its an interestingly assorted list;

    Agree with you on:

    Showgirls (you are right --- not even tits and ass saved this ridiculous film --- did you see the GIGANTIC box set thing they put together for this waste?)

    Renasissance Man (absolutely a waste of time)

    The Net (BAD and did not need a Special Edition DVD, did it?)

    I Disagree with you on:

    Independence Day, Twister, and Con Air; I loved these and own all of them; they all sound really good in 5.1 surround, with Twister getting DTS. I just bought Con Air the other night, but you must understand I am a Jerry Bruckheimer nut, and anything he produces I will probably buy, which I have, including Crimson Tide, the Bad Boys films, Armageddon, you know....I thought Cage's accent was terrible too, but it was just such a cool action film.
