zombieland. (yes, I said it)
I only smiled like once during the whole movie (when tallahassee got his twinky at the end, his expression was priceless, I'll give you that) and it was supposed to be a comedy...and probably because I'm a shaun of the dead fanboy.
[QUOTE=Schmoe222;22923637]Out of all the movies I've watched, Transformers 2 was definitely the most boring.
Oh yeah, and to all the people who hated the following movies:
2001: A Space Odyssey
A Fish Called Wanda
The Lord of the Rings
Inglourios Basterds
Shutter Island
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
You have the attention span of a gnat.[/QUOTE]
2001: A Space Odyssey really is an acquired taste though, unless you grew up liking movies that are really just glorified art shows then chances are that you'll find it insanely dull and unexciting.
That one with Will Smith in it.

i just didn't care for it

[QUOTE=BmB;22923069]Why would it be that when it's one of the most popular series of films from the last decade? Your reasoning is lacking.
Clearly your viewpoint is unique and you'll need a damn good reason to go with it. So far you've said "I don't care about the story". Which isn't a good basis at all. You can't claim to not like something because you didn't make an effort to care.[/QUOTE]
just because it's popular doesn't mean i have to like it too
the mythology was boring as hell among other things. it's not that i 'didn't make an effort to care', it's that i did, but still didn't.

Zombieland, while definitely inferior to Shaun of the Dead, isn't what I'd call 'boring'. There were a quite a few good moments in it.

[QUOTE=CTN1995;22905571]I agree with this statement.
It just felt like a damn play to me more than a movie.
There was hardly any action, but the only [I]good[/I] action was near the end where [sp]they kill Hitler[/sp]. Then again, that was half assed. Then there was a shit ton of dialogue.

Have you [i]seen[/i] a tarantino film before? In the best ones, it's always mostly dialogue, yes violence pays a big role, but for the most part there are very few ultraviolent sections, and they're always pretty brief.

Just because it's popular doesn't mean you can't have a reason.

and all the star wars films[/QUOTE]
I must say when I watched the first two about a month aggo they weren't incredibly exciting. Return of the King I can't speak for, though, as I haven't seen it in eons. original Trilogy Star Wars, though? The fuck? Admittedly though I've seen them so many times that they don't excite me like they used to.

wow stop the presses someone has a different opinion than you
Wow stop the presses you are an idiot who has nothing to contribute.
[QUOTE=kevlar jens;22909692]The dialogue is what makes the movie so great, you fool.
It's incredibly well written and builds up tension throughout the movie.
Do you think the bar scene would be as great if that British bloke blew his cover after a minute or so? No, of course not.
The scene where the German soldiers asked him about his accent was intense, man. No amount of explosions or gore can match that.
After that the tension skyrocketed until the big finale where the tiniest detail blew his cover, resulting in a very brief, yet incredibly satisfying moment of "action"-action.
When I say "action"-action I'm talking about the kind of action where people are [B]throwing away their ammo like candy[/B], big explosions and all that jive.
Thing is, dialogue is also action. Especially in Tarantino's movies. Maybe you would notice that too if your attention span was longer than five seconds.
Come back and watch the movie again later when you are not 15 to see if you've changed your mind then.[/QUOTE]
Do i spot a Sin City reference? :v:

Whoah, slow the fuck down there buddy, let's not get so worked up about something so trivial.
Garfield the Movie
Lady in the Water
Bourne Supremacy
Ocean's 11
Elektra
My Dinner with Andre, it doesn't get more booring than this since the whole movie is two guys in a resturant having a conversation.

Donnie fucking Darko. Worst movie ever.

It was a joke, people, come on.
Tokyo Gore Police
Movie was lulzy, only good thing was Croca-Vagina and the crazy blood.
I can't stand the Bourne films. I find them incredibly dull.

It's a Tarantino movie. If you expect a lot of action and little dialogue in a Tarantino movie, you don't know anything about anything.

So many cliches..Just...So many...

An insult to the game itself. The real Marine would be screaming his famous death scream. WAHH!!!
The English Patient - I rather read it, to expand my reading skills.
I don't know, I've seen a lot of boring shit. I thought Brazil was pretty boring the first time, but now I like it.

"The Pursuit of Happiness"? Will Smith is in that.
I think you were thinking of something called "The Pride and the Prejudice", may be confused.

Just watch Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction. There's maybe 2 actual violent scenes in each one. Most of it is the lead up to the aftermath of a situation.
