Movies You Wish Were Never Ever Made

[hammy]

There are so many bad movies that have been made over the years, I can't even begin to list them.

is it weird that i could tell that you were from texas, even before reading your location?
after reading the ridiculous crap you just said? no, it isn't.

This has to be a joke. No one is this ignorant/naive/closed-minded/flat-out-stupid.

Yes, I suppose the world would be better without The Exorcist, The Departed, Goodfellas, Rosemary's Baby, Saving Private Ryan, Midnight Cowboy, Taxi Driver, Last Tango In Paris, Five Easy Pieces, Carrie, Carnal Knowledge, 300, and lordy knows what else didn't exist.

You sir, are either a frightening case of over-conservative brainwashing or hilarious.

I feel so sorry for your repressed view on everything.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to watch some porn.

instead of being a nazi, why don't you exercise your freedom to not watch them

I'm really sick of this kind of crap. Moviefan may not share your points of view, but he/she is entitled to express his or hers without being called a nazi, repressed, ignorant, naive, flat out stupid and the like. And for those of you who think Moviefan's opinions are uncommon, you are being the naive ones.

 

[Episode29]

Where movies are concerned, sex is rarely (my estimate would be less than 2% of the time) depicted as a godly, pure, or holy act. Far more often than not, it's shown as two people (usually unmarried) simply trying to get their rocks off (excuse the bluntness)...and I've become completely sick of it. 99.9% of the time, sex scenes serve no actual purpose in a film's storyline. They're simply used to boost a rating, or push a view of premarital sex as "okay" or "beneficial".

Welcome to society, sonny jim. Have you ever talked to ANY people outside of your reserved community? Sex goes both ways, it doesn't all (or often) feature soft focus and harp music in real life.

 

[Mr.E.Nygma]

Superman (just my opinion, don't start bashing me) and most of the crap comedies and remakes we get those days.



EDIT : I was about to forget TRANSFORMERS, now that is huge piece of crap that should have never been made, I really don't care if I get bashed for telling this

 

[Episode29]

Casey: I don't have any objection to having a moral stance against sex of violence in movies. Just don't see them. However, I do have a problem with the hypocracy of finding the graphic violence in an action movie fine, but not in something that doesn't fit his particular film-going tastes. Art reflects society, the ugliness and the beauty, and it is ridiculous to impose censorship on the parts of life you don't like. It's naive and potentially dangerous.

I may find Hostel to be pathetic, immoral crap but Eli Roth had every right to make it. It's why I appreciate the varieties of films we are exposed to. If I wanted quality control I'd move to Iran or communist China.

Have you ever talked to ANY people outside of your reserved community?

That depends. If you're referring to people who eat up senseless depictions of sex, gallons of blood, and enough language to shame the entire U.S. military like its dessert, then no. I have enough junk in my mind as it is, and Hollywood keeps pushing every moral boundary. It's wrong, plain and simple.

Sex can be destructive, so in that respect you're right. However, if more would practice premarital abstinence (rather than jumping anyone they want), the rates of STDs and unwanted pregnancies would drop dramatically. Sex is serious stuff, and Hollywood often paints it as nothing more than the equivalent of a career choice.

 

[Mr.E.Nygma]

Oh Ep29, you're right about Hostel, never should have been made

 

[Moviefan2k4]

I don't condone extreme censorship, but I do feel that sometimes it is necessary. Art should be used to encourage people in morally-postive ways...not tear them down spiritually, or desensitize them.

Art often goes far beyond the bounds of what society finds acceptable, that is why you have something called 'public outcry,' when people believe something has crossed the boundaries of what is societally acceptable. And you are welcome to your point of view, just as much as moviefan is his or hers. But I didn't see moviefan use disparaging commentary toward you as you did toward him. You called him brainwashed. Why can't you just simply disagree without becoming emotional or accusatory?

but it is okay if its done with maturity.

Hmmm... Emotional no, but I shouldn't have used the term "brainwashed". That implies a passive role in his/her personal choices, and I apologize for throwing it out there. Look, at the end of the day, I don't disagree 100% with moviefan. I agree that Hollywood portrays destructive lifestyles, etc. However, as a movie lover, it annoys me because it implies films like Clockwork Orange, Pulp Fiction or Taxi Driver should be shunned because they don't give off "positive" moral messages. I agree with his asserion completely regarding the destructive qualities of sex, but most people don't share that viewpoint to such a passionate degree, and there are a number of mainstream and independent movies which emphasize both points of view. I'm all for religious, conservative films! I'll watch anything, and be open to it. I just find it troubling to actively attempt to censor that which we find offensive. We all have the choice whether to slap down our ten dollars without judging the morality of people who do or don't. Unless they're paying to see "Fred Claus"... j/k.

But I do apologize for name-calling. Not cool on my part.

How many of these movies does French Stewart "star" in?

 

[Moviefan2k4]

but it is okay if its done with maturity.

I respectfully disagree. True maturity is choosing lifetime commitment over "shacking up". I believe that premarital sex is generally one of many factors in the current moral decline of the United States. Sex was created by God, to bond one man and one woman together for life in a holy, loving, committed marriage. It was not created for promiscuity, homosexuality, or spousal / child abuse.

 

[DX]

So when did this thread become a discussion about premarital sex?

I'm really sick of this kind of crap.

And for those of you who think Moviefan's opinions are uncommon, you are being the naive ones.

And they are just entitled to the same expressing of their views of his views. And I know, there are many like Moviefan out there... hypocrites. We can sense our own kind, like the immortals from Highlander.

Which reminds me, every Highlander sequel.

I don't condone extreme censorship, but I do feel that sometimes it is necessary. Art should be used to encourage people in morally-postive ways...not tear them down spiritually, or desensitize them.

Your 'light' censorship included two genres and an industry... and a bunch of really good movies that many in the public agree are good.

Also FYI, censorship is censorship and is not necessary.... unless it is a movie made by Tim Burton about an outcast who everyone slowly realizes is just misunderstood and can actually help them out, until someone gets jealous and decides to shake things up and everyone turns back against the outcast and at the end we all learn a little something about ourselves and a lot about love.

If blood-soaked and sex-infested films are really so "good", then would you mind explaining to me why the average family film makes 10 times the amount of its R-rated counterpart?

Sounds like "Edward Scissorhands", and my only beefs with that film were Joyce trying to seduce him (completely unnecessary) and two or three lines from Anthony Michael Hall.

 

[fallenAngel]

X men 3, the "resident evil" movies and any Alien movie after 3 are the only movies I really feel strongly about. Other bad movies I can ignore easier.

and for the future I'm going to say Dragon Ball sounds like a bad idea.

 

[JackBauer]

A religion/morality debate? Did I step into the community forums and didn't notice?

95% of people disagree with you. See how easy it is to just throw out numbers out there?
