1. Dukes Of Hazzard Jessica Simpson + jocks = worst movie of 2005. Need i say more?
2. Hitchhikers Guide Franchise i know nothing about, mixed with nerd jokes i will never understand, plus a forgettable performance buy a "wanna-be-spider-man-mode" John Malchovitch. One of my better fans who is a die hard "42" fan even hated it. (partly because it deviated too much from the movie)
3. Mystery Men A Bunch of "Holy-er Than Thou" super Christian pricks went out of their way to humiliate/torment/punish me for "not being cool enough" buy ditching me to go see this movie. Public Humiliation is better than Ruebens in "post Pee-Wee Herman" "performance"
4. Deck The Halls .......Aw do i even need a reason??????
5. Herbie Fully Loaded. Further proof i think Lindsey Lohan is Satan

Aww, H2G2 wasn't bad....I could've done without the extraneous love story, but the movie was fine. A lot of fans of the book don't seem to realize that a hundred-odd page novel is not a very good movie script; it needed to deviate to work. And I liked Mystery Men too...I haven't seen Herbie Fully Loaded, but MAN! It's LINDSEY LOHAN! She's legal now, so you don't even have to pretend to feel guilty about thinking naughty thoughts about her!

My list:
-Titanic
-The DaVinci Code
-Crossroads
-American Pie
-Any adult film predominantly featuring midgets

Actually, I'm a fan of the Hitchhiker and it's love story, but only because Tim from the UK "Office" played Arthur Dent. He sells me on any relationship subplot.

Mystery Men is awesome, mostly because of Pee-Wee Power.

I just saw DaVinci Code last night. Night half bad, but pretty wacky. Not a serious film by any means, but well made (kind of like "Independence Day" without the huge special effects). I kinda thought "National Treasure" had the whole tone of the genre better though. And DaVinci was a bit too "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" for me.

I know "American Pie" is getting trashed by a few people, but Eugene Levy is amazing in it. It's his third best role to date (first being in every Christopher Guest film he appears in, the second being Mr. Lynch in "Bride of Boogedy" ;D ). There are worse teen comedies out there, mostly because Levy isn't in them. Although, I'm sure through some six degrees every major studio teen comedy film has at least one Guest troupe member in it.

I'm glad you mentioned Christopher Guest, for the record I can't really stand his films. A Mighty Wind and Best in Show almost had me fall asleep.

I don't watch lots of movies, so I don't know about half the movies you said. I watch mostly comedies. What I don't like are movies made to make you cry or depressed. I want to have fun from watching movies. I might like comedies too much though. I don't care if they are stupid if I laugh a bit.

I actually liked "Dukes of Hazzard". Well I think, because I don't remember the movie at all and normally I remember movies I hate.

And to prove I watch almost nothing, I haven't seen any 007, Matrix or Lord of the Rings movies. But I saw "Spaceballs". About 10 times. In french.
