I guess I've been lucky - or smart - in that I've only seen two movies on that list. I loved House of 1,000 Corpses, and I thought Kill Bill was pretty good although I do admit it is overrated.

I've never heard of "the stinkers". Seems it spends an awful lot of time picking on psuedo movies like "from justin to kelly", which only 17 people ever saw.

From Justin to Kelly wasn't a real movie. Just because it was in a movie theater for a day or two doesn't make it a movie, but I am sure it was a stinker none the less.

Aren't these called the 'Razzies'?

In any event, some years I agree with these, some years I don't. I believe it was two or three years ago now that 3,000 Miles to Graceland was nominated for 'Worst Picture.' Now, 3,000 Miles to Graceland wasn't exactly a work of artistic genius, but I have to question it when Josie and the Pussycats-which opened merely a month or so after Graceland, was not nominated for worst picture.

The Razzies is a different group that has an award show for Worst Films and performances of the year.

I think they were a little hard on Cuba Gooding, Jr. "Radio" was probably one of the most well-liked movies of the year, at least here in "middle America."

I wish there were a few more "worst" categories in which to place "The Cat in the Hat."

I agree. I enjoyed "Radio" and Cuba Gooding Jr.'s performance, as well as that of Ed Harris.

OK? These were the best movies of the year....I would hardly consider them overrated. Can anyone seriously consider the Return of the King or Last Samurai to be mediocre? Big Fish had probably the best story of any movie I saw in 03

Perhaps it should have been 'Most Over-Hyped'...

All of those titles with maybe the exception of 'Lost In Translation' were hyped up ad infinitum! [Roll Eyes]
