wow, i agree with only 2 things that that “genious” said. it was that hostel 2 sucked, along with spiderman 3. how can you say 300 sucked? how can i say sm3, and hostel sucked? i guess opinion is all that matters, but i dont look at a movie for “technicalities”. i like or dislike a movie for how much it glues me to my chair. i think that whoever watches for any other reason than to be entertained, is an imbicile. i still think the best movie of all time was Full Metal Jacket.

I can agree with most of that. I never saw Hostel II (didn’t want to) but 300 had me, my sister, AND my hyperactive brother bored. Seriously, both of them left. I just slept in the theater.

Every category up there could have been won by the movie RedLine. That is clearly the worst movie of 2007.

ROB ZOMBIE’S
HALLOWEEN:

..HATED IT…It lacked originality. I didn’t need a back story of Michael Myers. His back-story has been kicked around by fans since before the dawn of the interenet or WWW . John Carpenter is the King of film horror, I can’t beleive that he would allow his classic to be missed with. In the “Original” Hallowen the Myeres were middle-class, not some Jerry Springer rip off. & it was never mentioned if MM had a sister etc untill “Halloween 2″. He was just “The Shape”. The killer who escaped on Halloween night, the same night he killed his own sister some 20 years eaierler. Who on that day saw a young girl who reminded him of his sister whom he had killed so many years ago, and it triggers something in him to go and kill this unknown girl for that purpose alone, & no matter who may be in his way. This “So-Called” New Vision was nothing but a rip-off on the orginial with no “real” horror scares. I was bored by the end. No edge of the seat terror. More blood and guts. No shadows, less light, & more use of the audience imagination! A real waste of $15.00 for 2 People! It missed the mark with horror originality, intenseness & Characterization. I was laughing by the end. When Lori was runnning from MM toward the of the film, it looked more like a something from “The Mummy” films of the 30’s! Razzie Nominee mention here: for “Worst Actress” Scout-Taylor Compton! Razzie Nominee “Worst Supporting-Actress”

We love film. See alot.

This is “OUR” “WORST FILM’S OF 2007″ list (SO Far)

1) Halloween (2007):
..HATED IT…It lacked originality. I didn’t need a back story of Michael Myers.

2) 1408.
…I checked out 15 minutes later.

3) Hostel 2

4) Underdog

5) Perfect Stanger:
..Weak and disappointing! Halle Berry still can’t carry a film, not even with Bruce Willis and Giovanni Ribisi thrown in. Great ending. Too bad, to many plot holes. Shhh..if u have seen “Perfect Stranger” ..Please don’t spoil the ending! Bad film, Z Grade acting. But great ending! THIS IS CONSIDERED: “A BAD “WE” LOVE”.!!

6) Disturbia :
…How director D.J. Caruso went from directing a great film from 2002 called: “The Salton Sea (2002)”, then to this low-brown, cheap teenagag Hitchcock rip-off crap is beyond me!?.

Norbit was one of the best movies so far this year. Norbit should not be up there. What about Reno 911 Miami! That movie was terrible!

I don’t agree with a whole lot of your list (mostly because I haven’t seen Hostel 2–more on that in a moment), but I enjoyed reading it. 300 was all style, no substance. Simple as that. Once I got over that, I just sat back and enjoyed all the visuals. I thought it was a beautiul film, but certainly nothing I’d watch to get a great meaning from. That’s fine, because not every movie has to have a “great meaning;” sometimes they’re just lovely to look at.

I liked Grindhouse, apparently a lot more than you. But that’s cool. I can understand where you’re coming from. After watching it twice, I realize that Death Proof is probably the better of the two features, but I enjoyed Planet Terror more because I have a thing for John Carpenter. His movies, not him. He looks like David Lo Pan and Skeletor had a child. Anyways.

Now, Hostel 2. Yeah, not going to bother watching it, or the original. I liked Cabin Fever only after the second viewing when I got that it was all supposed to be ridiculous, but I don’t really get Eli Roth overall. I mean, is he really an asshole, or is he just putting on the act? He’s like Seth Green in that high school movie where he was acting all “playa/gangsta” but he was really just the world’s biggest pussy. What a turd.

And did anyone else notice the subtle irony of the tagline for Norbert on the movie poster? I think that’s going to be Eddie Murphy’s epitaph. It’d be funny if it weren’t sad.

I so totally agree about 300. It was horrible. I was so excited to see it, and then i did. i do believe my direct quote afterwards was

“If i ever see someone speared again, i will gouge my own eyes out”.

blech. Waste of Time.

This is silly. Hostel 2, Grindhouse, Spider-man 3 and 300 worst movies of the year? Dumb dumb dumb. Even if you didn’t like these fliks, which I understand, there was far worse fare. FAR. You just seem to have a personal grudge against these movies, no real complaint that couldn’t be applied to 99.9% of movies made ever.
The fact that you found Tarantino’s half of Grindhouse better speaks to how pretentious you really are. The other fliks didn’t try to do anything but entertain, and yet still had more intelligence behind them then five seconds of that self-indulgent crap called a movie. Watching cliche characters that all talk like the same person, namely the writer, is horrible filmmaking, writing, and entertainment.
Get over your ego and you might actually enjoy movies, instead of ridiculing them for the benefit of feeling superior. Your writing is far less clever than you seem to think, and I rank it as the worst article I’ve read this year. This isn’t because I think these movies are unable to be critiqued, sure they had problems. This is because your critiques were idiotic and showed less brain power than the movies you bash for the same thing. Sad. Really sad.

The only thing I agree with on this list is anything that has to do with Hostile 2. Ok, and i’ll never watch Norbit, or Grindhouse. I can understand those being on the list… but, you obviously have horrible taste in movies. Spidey 3 was good… the “dancing” was hilarious. Showed how absolutely cocky he was becoming… he was seeing himself as this human-savior, gift-to-mankind.. and women. And… come on. 300. How can I describe this? How about, “Bad. Fucking. Ass.”

Basically.. you should be fired from this site for insulting Sparta.

300 had amazing special effects and was a visual a piece of art, however, the plotline was simple, and while it may have worked in the comic book medium, wasn’t very Spart-eriffic in my opinion.

I haven’t seen Hostel I or II, but I’ll take your word for it. Everything I’ve read about this movie (here and elsewhere makes me not want to see it. Even the objective, unskewed reviews.
