I haven't seen it yet. But I love Todd Solondz, in general. Happiness and Storytelling are brutal, brutal films. But they're amazing to me, too. I've wanted to see Palindromes for a while now. It's always been high on the list. Your description has me wanting to see it even more.theplatypus wrote:Hahaha.durdencommatyler wrote:Gummo almost ruined my entire life.
Earlier in the thread I said "Palindromes" was the most infuriating movie I'd seen and you said "interesting". Why is that? Did you like it?

I liked "Happiness" a lot, but "Palindromes" just made me incredibly angry. This is what I wrote the day after seeing it.

Wanting to see it a little less now. I thought maybe the film was intentionally frustrating; that it worked on you the way it was meant to. That's what I took from your original post.
Have you seen Storytelling?

Is Storytelling the one with the B&S soundtrack?

The Room used to be my favorite bad movie until about a month ago, until...WtOB? wrote:"The Room" is a must-see bad movie.
Anyone seen Birdemic? It's on Netflix streaming and the funniest movie I have ever seen. Bad doesn't even begin to describe it. The direction, dialogue, acting, and special effects are all atrocious.

Re: What is the worst movie you have seen
Also - well, the movie probably isn't as bad as my overall experience watching it was - but The Thin Red Line comes to mind. I fucking hated that thing. I need to see it again now that I've had some distance and have gained a greater appreciation for Malick's work.
But at the time... on that night... in that theater... with that crowd... I wanted to die.

Re: What is the worst movie you have seen
Like others have said, I feel like "The Room" is the answer to this. But I enjoyed it so much that it's really hard to dismiss it, i.e., I'd never try to convince someone not to watch it.

Re: What is the worst movie you have seen
I started writing a list but decided to delete it, because I don't think it would've done the movie justice. It is a thing to behold.Dr. Van Nostrand wrote:i keep seeing it mentioned but dont know what it is, what makes it so bad?Simple Torture wrote:Like others have said, I feel like "The Room" is the answer to this.

I walked out of Drop Dead Fred when I was 10 or so. Still the only movie I've ever walked out on.
