Anyone else willing to back me up on either Alien 3 or Predator 2? I honestely can't understand why they are so disliked. Alien 3 would have been a far, far better way to end the series than Resurrection.

I can understand such a viewpoint. I enjoy, though, how they take what was already a ridiculous premise, and then make it more ridiculous to top what they've already done in the first movie.Ceres said:

Oh, see, now I'm not sure I want to read this: appropriate for the thread, I may be one of the only living Costner apologists. Love the guy.

Are you my friend Eric? I haven't gotten around to seeing it, myself, but he'll swear by this movie.

I can't help you with Predator 2, but Alien 3 is a favorite of mine. I'd never make the claim that it's better than Alien (nothing in the genre is) but it's absolutely superior to Cameron's turd.

Well, it (Noises Off, for those LTTP) is a play, so the production is going to effect the impressions of it. I saw a fairly sizable production of it with a rotating set and loved it, but I'd think a staging with lower production values could still pull it off well.AndrewG009 said:
I kept thinking of this movie while watching After Life, and you're right, it's a great movie. Lots of neat little touches, like Shirley McClain's cameo, and great one liners. It really makes you cheer for Brooks at the end.pete_townshend said:
While I wouldn't go quite as far as your man-crush on Tim Allen, I enjoyed this movie too. I chalk it up more to Dave Barry's writing than Tim Allen's acting.eznark said:

Oh oh oh! I remembered a movie that only I like, and it's old enough that none of you contrarian whippersnappers can prove me wrong on!
Made In Heaven
The only bad memory of this movie was that I had a perfect date and we ended the date by watching it (including backrub) and afterwards, I didn't even have the guts to go for the goodnight kiss.

I think this film is extremely interesting, not good, but interesting.sammy said:

Ring a Bell for me
Probably because my love for Hellblazer trumped Keanu's inability to act.

I only skimmed the first and last pages, but I already see a lot of movies I really like. Is there something wrong with me?
My pick:
Not only do I love it, it's in my top 5.

I got your back on Alien 3 too. I really enjoy it and think it's surprising that it turned out as well as it did considering all the issues and changes it went though to get made (a wooden planet? What?). Definitely better than the disaster that was Resurrection.
I've only seen Predator 2 once or twice when I was a kid, but I didn't hate it then.

What the hell? I'm pretty sure more people like Lawrence of Arabia than dislike it.

I LOVE this movie, but any time I've shown it to somebody, their reaction is lukewarm.
How could you not love this:
The Robin Hood scene
What? WHo doesn't like Time Bandits?

I could list dozens depending on how far I go back. I grew up on 80s movies that people would hate today (along with ones you all love, of course).
Star Wars 3
Van Helsing
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
I think these last two are two of the most fun action movies since...I don't know when. No, they're not good, but no action movies are good these days, a fact to which I can attest after having spent hundreds of dollars on DVDs looking for the first good action movie since...Speed? Or something.

True Romance is pretty good and Black Rain is actually my favorite Ridley Scott film
and I'm ready to take any incoming abuse for that statement.

Almost Heroes is awesome and Chris Farley's best movie. ACCEPT THE TRUTH, PEOPLE.

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time.
A while ago I was watching Synecdoche, New York with my parents and sister and one by one they all ended up "walking out" because they thought it was too weird. :lol
I really enjoyed the movie overall, but I wouldn't consider it one of my favorite Kaufman films.

I watched 3 of 5 on that list and liked all of them (True Romance was something of a cult hit in my country, best role of Brad Pitt's career and all thatWray said:
). I guess I'll have to check the other 2, if you rate them close.Anyway, here's some of mine - each of them very different in why general reactions usually aren't positive:
