Stupid Movies

The Dada Drummer needs you to clean out your DVD collection, purging it of egregiously stupid movies. The fact that you "like it" is really unacceptable. Stupid is evil. And evil often uses benign likability to sneak in. Don't fall for it.

Patch Adams
Armageddon
Mission to Mars
Titanic
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Pearl Harbor
The Day After Tomorrow
Volcano
Pretty Woman
Forrest Gump
Hook
Titanic
Tank
Underdog
Air Force One
Dante's Peak
Red Dawn
Stepmom
Saving Private Ryan
What Lies Beneath
Scent of a Woman


This list is not exhaustive. I will continue to add to it so that you can be vigilent in your personal fight against stupid. But don't wait. Go. Start purging.

I LIKED Saving Private Ryan and
Scent of a Woman.

That's OK. We all make mistakes. I liked TOP GUN. But I have forgiven myself and moved on. You can, too.

Hurray! Someone else who thinks that Pretty Woman is awful trash. And Dante's Peak? That's so bad it's almost entertaining. Here a couple more for the list:

the "Godzilla" remake
Jurassic Park, II and III (one is OK)
Ocean's 11 (and 12 and 13)
Dead Poet's Society

We need to somehow separate the opening sequences of Saving Private Ryan with the rest of the movie. The opening is stellar. It needs to be saved from Private Ryan.

And put Titanic on the list, somebody, please.

And just about anything involving Sylvester Stallone made post-Rocky (the first one).

DAN BUCK said...

Whoa there Nate. Don't throw out Judge Dread! Didn't Altman direct it?

Nate and Maren Records said...

Only if by "Altman" you mean "Danny Cannon."

Oh look! Another Rambo movie due out this year!

Oh no! Ocean's movies appeal to my desire to be involved in a heist...
