The Best and Worst (Movie Game)

[CConn]

Okay, so the game's pretty simple.

It goes as follows....

Person #1 names a movie:
Kazaam.

Person #2 lists the best and worst aspects of the aforementioned film:
Best: Shaq rapping.
Worst: Nothing, of course!

Then person #2 names a new movie: Steel.

And the cycle repeats.

I'll start it up with...

Iron Man.

 

[James]

Best: Robert Downey JR's performance as Tony Stark.
Worst: Terrence Howard acting like a knob after the films release.

Man of Steel

 

[CConn]

Best: Jor-El being a slick mother... And pretty much all of the Krypronian parts.

Worst: The US military doing their best to be bland and average.

A Clockwork Orange.

 

[gwynplaine]

Best: Stanley Kubrick.
Worst: Nothing really, besides the fact that it is a film of its time and it shows in certain sequences, it is a different era and cinematic grammar which maybe makes it look and feel dated to some people.

Network.

 

[CConn]

Best: It's seemingly coincidental timelessness that allows it to remain relevant during any time of economic and/or social uncertainty.

Worst: Everything else about it reeks the 70s.

Sleeping Beauty.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

Good villain.
Bland leads.

Jaws.

 

[gwynplaine]

Best: Robert Shaw

Worst: Made a "Monster", a villain, out of an animal that should be protected and left alone. Also brought us Jaws 2.

Raging Bull

 

[BH/HHH]

Best: De Niro

Worst: Depressing film

The Goonies

 

[James]

Best: The kid who played Chunk grew up to be a successful Hollywood lawyer, and used to perform the Truffle Shuffle at college football games.

Worst: They don't make movies like this anymore (Super 8 being a rare exception)

The Dark Knight Rises (heh heh heh)

 

[gwynplaine]

Best: The Soundtrack.

Worst:

Spoiler

Talia's Death

This Is The End

 

[childeroland]

The best:

Spoiler

James Franco almost making it to heaven, then screwing it up.

The worst: Too much Jonah Hill.


Skyfall

 

[Eddie Dean]

Best: Javier :heart:
Worst: Bye bye Judi Dench

Boogie Nights

 

[Donnie Darko]

Best: John C Reilly and Phillip Seymout Hoffman, but I love pretty much all of it

Worst: the feeling of inadequacy 99.9% of men feel when seeing that final shot in the mirror.


Swingers

 

[Max J Power]

Best: The Jon Favreau character was a very likable protagonist.
Worst: The Vince Vaughn character was not a very likable protagonist. And neither was their group of friends.

There Will Be Blood

 

[CConn]

Best: Daniel Day Lewis.
Worst: I...I'm really not sure.

On The Waterfront.

 

[childeroland]

Best: "I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am."

Worst: Not enough Karl Malden, I guess. Otherwise, the film is perfect.

Lady Vengeance.
