Worst Movie Ever, Version 2 Options

I don't think it's that bad, but Sweeney Todd is definitely not that good. (I can't think of anything worse right now; might edit if I do.)

I agree with most of that list except The Fountain, I don't think it was one of the worst movies ever. Little odd and I can see how its not everyone's cup of tea.

The Fountain was rather good, imo. But i can definitely see why this may be on some people's worst movies lists.

The Fountain has nothing worth salvaging. It is so sophomoric and pretentious. There is not a foot of depth in that poorly executed, murky, and boring shallow pond of scum-bucketing shit. Even on a purely aesthetic perspective, the movie, though it was hailed as beautiful, is truly yawn-inducing and full of nothing but old tricks. For those who think this film is "odd" or avant-garde, you really couldn't be more wrong. It's nothing special, and it's certainly not brave. And, it's all very unfortunate, because I feel that Aronofsky is a very competent director. He just really f**ked this one up.

See, when you make comments like these, you should follow them up. What about the movie was sophomoric and what makes you call it pretentious? How was it poorly executed? I really have nothing to say about this since I haven't actually watched The Fountain, but I've disagreed with a lot of your comments about movies I DID like... such as Juno and HAVE felt that what you said about those movies are a bit pretentious and condescending.

I've read movie reviews that cut down movies I like, so it's definitely not that. Most reviews tell you just what it is about certain films that they find horrible, where the redeeming qualities are, and why they hate it so much. Calling something "pretentious and sophomoric" is not a review, it's an opinion. You've never followed it up.

You use big words, but people really need to dig through that pile of shit to get to what you're really trying to say.
