The movie thread earlier got me thinking. What popular movie did you not like?
I really do not like the movie Anchorman. I've never met anyone that doesn't love it and everyone is super shocked when I say I don't like it. All the buzz about the sequel coming out makes me roll my eyes every time.

I don't like the LOTR series... they were fine to watch once I guess but I wouldn't watch them again. My MIL is OBSESSED with them and watches them at least once a month!!
I also have issues with some movies that have questionable morals... like I hated the movie "It's Complicated" because of the morals in the show.. I couldn't get past it, it was sick to me!
I didn't care for "The Vow" - it didn't live up to the hype.
Also, gasp, I found Breakfast at Tiffany's to be quite boring.

How strange; I'm the same way with Anchorman! I just didn't find it very funny.
I also don't see the hype with Love Actually. I found it obnoxious.

the first two that come to mind are office space and steel magnolias.

Ah... I totally love all of the movies y'all listed.
I hate the Twilight movies. Does that count?

@yerpie110: I hate Steel Magnolias. It's too sad to be so popular.
@deerylou: I don't like Love Actually, either...it stemmed even more of those type of movies, and they're all pretty bad.

@photojane: How interesting! What are some of your favorite films?
It's rare that I'm actually excited about seeing a big blockbuster, whether it's an action, sci-fi, or romantic comedy. I'm usually the dork in the corner, getting pumped up for foreign films and documentaries at the little, indie theater downtown. I do like dramas, though.
Because of this, I see a lot of movies alone. Or with my ma.

@Mrs. Pen: Blasphemy! Love, love, love Breakfast at Tiffany's!
I can't get into LOTR or the Star Wars series.

Knocked Up and This Is 40 - both we're way too long and drawn out. There were some funny bits but not worth watching as a whole for me.

@deerylou: my all time favorite is Wizard of Oz, but I love stupid comedies like Step Brothers, Anchorman, Bridesmaids, and I Love You Man. I like dorky guy movies like LOTR and the Batman trilogy too.

I don't like a lot of Will Ferrell movies. Elf grew on me, though.
Wedding Crashers- Eh...
Did not like Superbad movie either.

@Mrs. Pen: @rahlyrah: I love everything Audrey Hepburn. She's so adorable!

@photojane: I totally stared at your user name while looking at the OP's avatar - whoops! That being said, I also like dorky guy trilogies, too.
@jmarionsmith: My previous comment was supposed to be directed at you; sorry about that, been a long, preggo day. It does seem we have similar taste - what movies do you enjoy?

Oh, and the Matrix! I've watched it 3 times and fell asleep each time, cause I just could not get it.

@lioneyes: um I LOVE your Lucille winky-eye avatar!
I just saw Lincoln this weekend and I didn't really like it. Do I have to turn over my US citizenship now?

@deerylou: i'm really not picky about movies in general but my all time favorites are shawshank redemption and primal fear. my ultimate guilty pleasure is dirty dancing!
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21616 posts
@photojane: @rahlyrah: I hate myself for not liking that movie... it was just so uneventful to me! Because I am totally the type of person who SHOULD like that movie! I love Audrey as well
@bluestriped bee: @MamaJ: agreed. Not a Will Ferrell fan. And my mom is appalled that I hated Elf.

@deerylou - I thought it was just me! I really can't get into it that movie.

@Mrsjets: I hated knocked up!! So overrated, I couldn't wait for it to end!
@Sweet T: I hated bridesmaids too...I don't get all the hype!

Avatar. Hated it! Also watched Zero Dark Thirty the other night and was surprised I didn't like it.. I guess I was expecting more action?
@Pirouette: Same here, didn't like Bridesmaids at all. Which reminds me, I didn't like the Hangover.
