Well, I haven't seen any of 'em yet, but, I will see "Nacho Libre" one of these days. Looked funny to me!

A little post holiday humor poll ping.

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909 stays on the list until his death by zot is confirmed or his ghost signs up for the list)

I was trapped on a long plane flight with NACHO LIBRE and THE DA VINCI CODE. Nacho was bad, but Code was worse. Really one of the worst movies I've ever seen, bar none.

Didn't see any of them, but the wife says that Little Man and RV both sucked.

They all look just awful to me. I wouldn't waste my time with any of them. And that's coming from someone that used to see EVERY (and yes, I do mean every) movie that came out. Good, bad, straight to video, I used to watch them all. Now, the dreck has taken over. All the good writing has moved to television.

When you have shows like 24, Prison Break, Heroes, Day Break, and Dexter, who the hell needs movies anyway? They look silly by comparision.

I've seen all of those except for Ultraviolet, and Basic Instinct 2 is definitely the worst of them all.

It was the first movie I have ever walked out on.

Saw III (or whatever number it was) was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

RV was funny.

But I haven't see the rest of 'em.

I have a VERY low tolerance for "feel good" movies in general and that's what Nacho Libre turned out to be. I thought it would be in the same, bizarre vein of humor as Napoleon Dynamite - and it was, but only slightly. The rest was just feel good crap all around. That said, I loved that damned movie. I thought it was cute, sweet, and easy to watch. And I almost (almost) cried at the end. I have no idea what's wrong with me these days.

I watched "Taxi Driver" to get me back on track and purge the schmaltz from my brain.

I was dragged to Nacho Libre and didn't enjoy it at all.

RV was a great movie.


OK, it wasn't a GREAT movie, but it certainly doesn't belong in a "worst 5" list. Not when Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" is wandering around.

Ultraviolet was the worst of the ones I saw. And kind of sad. It was a ripoff of Resident Evil and those aren't even good movies. I mean Come On!

RV is the only one that I saw. The only semi-funny moment in the movie was the scene at the RV park when they were trying to hook up the sewer hose.
Jack Black is on my list of actors that are funny for 10-15 minutes at a time. Others on the list: Jim Carey, Adam Sandler and any of the Wayans brothers.

From a politics stand point, Happy Feet was rank.

Pure liberal propaganda.

Didn't see any of them. But, hey that didn't stop me from voting Basic Instinct 2.

Of those, Ultraviolet is the only one I have seen. I thought it was OK, because I don't have high expectations for that genre. It was an action/special effects/hot actress movie, and it did reasonably well at that.

The others, I haven't seen. Nacho Libre seems to be following the Napoleon Dynamite angle, so it will likely be a love it / hate it reaction.

Little Man looks like a one-minute chuckle stretched into a two-hour movie. No thanks.

RV is a pathetic attempt at a Vacation clone with Robin Williams. Nope.

Basic Instinct 2 was probably someone returning a favor to Sharon Stone. She wanted to show off the plastic surgery and have another go at being a hot babe. It still isn't working.
