    As promised, the Top 12 Movies I Hate But Everyone Else Seems to Love

    That's a list I can agree with. 300 - Never even saw it until a few months ago, but even with all the hype and publicity, boring beyond belief. Had seen clips so knew to expect the cheesy video game blood, but that film was a snooze fest. Vertigo - Not terrible, but Hitchcock did many other...

    As promised, the Top 12 Movies I Hate But Everyone Else Seems to Love

    Completely agree with you about the trailer scene in JP The Lost World, but even with how bad it was, it was the one highlight in an otherwise awful film.

    Just a brief comment, probably post more this weekend, but completely agree with you about Batman. This is actually a movie people love? I think I first saw it when I was maybe nine or ten years old and absolutely hated it. I guess even at that age I was already a critic but I remember thinking...
