How about "The Worst Chick Movie I Pretended to Like to Get Jiggy with the Wife" thread.

I know but best worst is really just another way to say mediocre, boring, pointless, etc. I think a film is really bad if you just "have to" watch it all the way through, and wind up being a little ashamed that you did.

Not that I remember anything about the film, but as a 15 year old, the title was cool:

C.H.U.D.

Almost anything with Tom Cruise could make my list, but War of the Worlds was a new low. I should disqualify myself, since I kept nodding off during it

I agree with you. It was really bad. I told my wife that "when you are making a movie and it's turning out that bad; you should either start over or write off the investment and move on." The only good in that movie is the subwoofer effects.

However I can watch "Top Gun" over and over. So Cruise isn't all bad.

Yeah, but that was in his pre-scientologist days and was not a lunatic following some made up religon.

All religions are made up. By made up, I mean they were created. Some are just more plausible than others.

Hi Pmbuko,

How timely. I'm just reading "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins, good read and very persuasive.

To Joe in CT: Au contraire, I found the remake of "War of the Worlds" far better than the original, which is very dated and corny.

Regards,
Alan

I thought the new "War of the Worlds" could have been better, myself after watching it. Speilberg sometimes seems to throw a lot of money into his special effects, imo, to make up for some of the weak stories. Yah, the original was corny, but they could have done so much more with the new one, methinks.
