OK um WHERE do you get off calling TITANIC one of the worst movies ever....Do you know that will go down in history....that is and will forever be a classic movie, really bringing to life the reality of the whole situation. What parts did you find boring I'd like to know. i was on the edge of my seat for the whole 2 some hours...well i'd like you to get back to me finti. I am facinated by your movie taste. what movies do you like? any recent ones catch your interest...if you say you didn't like LOTR or POTC I'm so going a-wall.
It's "A.W.O.L."( absence with out leave), hun. 😉
I agree with you on Titanic, though. I think alot of people avoid(ed) it because of word of mouth, labeling it strictly a love story. For starters, it's set in modern time, on an expedition to raise artifacts from the ship, with Bill Paxton at the helm. Then, of course they get ahold of Rose and she goes into an elaborate, beautiful story of that night, and her personal accounts.
It's honestly is a shame that people will dismiss it as a chick flick, because it's a really well put together movie, the likes of which could really only be rivaled with "Gone With the Wind" or "Casablanca". Cinematography, costume, and set design, they just all click on a higher level.

um.......you do know it was completely fictional, right? The only thing the movie acurately depicts is the boat sinking.............the entire story aswell as the characters are completely fictional.
Ohhh, there are so many. One that springs immediately to mind, though, is "Joey" (1985). At the time, it was called "Making Contact", and it was about a boy with an evil ventriloquist's dummy.
Seeing as it was 19 years ago, though, and given that I wasn't nearly the jaded movie expert I am now, I considered that I just didn't fully "appreciate" it back then.
Nope. It was directed and co-written by Roland Emmerich, who has delivered such treacle-laden stinkbombs as "Independence Day" and "Godzilla" (and by stinkbombs, I mean they sucked, not that they didn't have big-time studio backing and glossy ads to help get their money back).
Even "The Patriot" and "Stargate" (which I consider far better films than the previous two) have their moments in which you can clearly detect that Emmerich sappiness. Anyway, "Joey" was triple-cursed: bad writing, acting and directing.
