A few days ago I watched the 2015 movie, "Steve Jobs" on the Tube. One word description: BORING!!! Despite great material to work with, it was one big borefest. Aaron Sorkin's scipt was largely to blame. It didn't feel like real people involved talking. It came off as a platform for SorkinSpeak. You can always tell a movie he has written. It has his peculiar SorkinSpeak which consists of rapid fire chit chat signifying nothing.
Okay, that is my idea of the most boring movie that I have ever seen. What is yours? Remember, this doesn't mean WORST movie, only most BORING movie.
LOL Great idea .... like it !
Yep bad as bad can get in the movie list ....:o)
Chariots of Fire
Out of Africa (we call it Out of Boredom)
Night Of The Iguana.... a camp classic, I saw dome of once on the TV, it was a definite sleeper.
How about The French Leautenant’s Woman? Zzzzzzzz
Oh yeah, that was a snoozer too. With a pretentious framing technique as an added bonus.
Maybe you had to be both a fan of his comix and a current/former resident of Cleveland as I am to appreciate that movie.
Yes, and who could ever forget Pulp Fiction’s “Royale with Cheese” conversation? Now that’s good writing. I think QT started to think that ALL conversations are interesting as long as he throws in an occasional obscure cultural reference ... he is wrong.
Jeremiah Johnson it’s not.
Grand Canyon.
I forgot to mention that my father thought Dave went on an acid trip.
I kept waiting for that movie to get to a climax and it never did.
I forgot about that one. Had to watch it for a college class. HATED IT.
Hey, Sound of Music was wonderful. love it.
Made an impression on me, eh?
Thanks for the correction.
I guess so.... must be acquired taste.
Hm................ok?
The Piano. Couldn’t even watch to the end.
Memphis Belle had me rooting for the Nazis.

Well, it probably was not ideal for distractions after the end of a large meal. It was a rainy night in Rio and we had just left a Churrascaria. I fell asleep at some point. English with Portuguese subtitles so no excuse for me with the dialogue. The overall sense of despair from the movie was awful. I fell into a meat coma after a while fortunately...
my girlfriend loves this movie, and got mad when I told her it was boring! I’m with you on this one...
