The Sound of Music should not be on this list...

Cocktail and Steel Magnolias are great movies! PooPoo on some of these choices!

Glad to see you over here (gee, talking about a movie). You're right The Sound of Music does not belong on this list. There are several others that also do not belong on the list. IMHO, I'd take these off the list:

Godzilla - not a great movie, but not one of the worst.
Hook - my family loves that movie
Dirty Dancing - just cause it was filmed (partly) in my home county
When Harry Got Mail in Seattle - cute combo of the names, but I liked all three...
Steel Magnolias - I'm a Dolly fan (but Rhinestone did stink...)

Based on reviews, I'd probably take some others off the list, but I haven't seen them so I won't.

These lists are really rather stupid. So this guy (or these guys) didn't like these movies. But these movies made a lot of money for somebody. Maybe they're not "classics" (a couple are), but they're hardly the 50 worst movies of all time.

For cryin' out loud, where's Ishtar? Where's The Attack of the Killer Tomatoes?

I'd leave Exit to Eden on the list. It stank, but it has one of my all time favorite lines, even if it was said by Rosie O'Donnell: "You want to fulfill my fantasy? Paint my house..."
