Author Topic: Bad/average movies that you really love Tom Petrov Five Guys Lover Posts: 1121 From: El Paso, TX Registered: Jan 2003 posted 02-28-2011 05:00 PM                    Is that a particular movie out there that is crap, below average or average that you just really love and can't get enough of? Movies that you might like but makes no sense for other people. For me, it is the movie Revenge with Kevin Costner. Now, I know Revenge is no **** movie, its not even a *** movie. I have seen it so many times, maybe a 100 times, watching it right now with no surround sound while sitting in my office. I have the regular cut dvd, the directors cut. I just love it! Madeline Stowe The sex scenes The Cinematography with all the smoke filled scenes The Mexican backdrop The violence. The score. the support cast of James Gammon, Miguel Ferrer and Anthony Quinn and the ending just worked It just really worked for me. I saw it in Cinema #2 at the Stone Road Mall in Guelph and it was rated R. I am on the hunt for the movie on laserdisc. I would like to see a 70MM ad if there is one. I have liseted to the directors commentary, the score, the special features...Revenge might just be my favorite movie.  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

I watched it over and over again as a kid. I recently watched it again for the first time in several years and strangely it held up exactly as I remembered it. It doesn't exist on DVD as far as I know, but I have a decent VHS of it.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-28-2011 07:36 PM                        Transformers: The Movie - Not the recent Michael Bay suck-fests.  |  IP: Logged Manny Knowles "What are these things and WHY are they BLUE???"

Posts: 4247 From: Bloomington, IN, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 02-28-2011 09:38 PM                     Frank, I also like the DeLaurentiis version of KING KONG -- Jessica Lange is great in that. And OFFICE SPACE is great -- It lasted something like 3 days at the theatre where I was working when it came out.  |  IP: Logged Tom Petrov Five Guys Lover Posts: 1121 From: El Paso, TX Registered: Jan 2003 posted 02-28-2011 11:47 PM                    quote: Manny Knowles CONGO Congo was a good one  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!
