Ridiculous scenes in otherwise decent films Page 3

Anyway in all fairness...My style is the style of true Stylemakers. and your style is the style of true stylemakers. LOVE IS LOVE BABIES AND GENTLEMEN.

After being badgered, I agreed to sit and watch Love Actually, I lasted about 5 minutes in. There was a wedding scene and all of the people in the church suddenly pulled out musical instruments and started playing...and oh God, that was it for me. Off!

The end of the first Transformers movie also perplexed me. The US Government had their hands on Megatron, an unbelievably advanced bit of kit from outer space and instead of dissecting the Deceptacon and learning all of it's secrets, they decided to drop it in the ocean.

Now, I'm no expert at the reverse engineering or disposal of alien technology, but if they were worried about Megatron returning, why didn't they just melt him down into scrap? Surely, if the Japanese found out there was some alien tech at the bottom of the ocean, they'd stop whale hunting long enough to go and get it.

:S

Man who looks for sense in Transformers Movie is like man who looks for wisdom in his anus.
All he finds is shit and no one will eat the sandwiches he makes.

That said why does James Bond always identify himself as James Bond?

I hate it at the end of Red River when the implacable Oedipal rivalry is resolved by John Wayne and Montgomery Clift having a manly punch up and then deciding that they love one another really.

Horst Bucholtz big speech berating the cowering villagers in The Magnificent Seven, is also fairly cringeworthy.

But when it comes to the unforgivable marring of classic westerns, I do not think anything can compete with James Caan impersonating a Chinaman in El Dorado.

Good choice!

The whole second half of From Dusk Till Dawn.

Thirded

The bit in Independence Day when Will Smith Punches an Aliens lights out.

The sequence behind the credits of Dan in Real Life. Enjoyed the film, really appreciated the open-ended final shot, it fit the tone perfectly.

Then what must have been a studio enforced wedding scene takes place under the credits with all the major characters happy and getting along. Oh dear.

I like that bit!!

The bit in Torchwood when John Barrowman stops staring at something shiny and attempts to act.

I can't think what you would mean by this. I haven't seen it in a while, care to explain a little more? :)

In the otherwise awful Mama Mia, the bits where the cast sing are even worse. Except the bit where ropy 60+ actors/actresses try to be horny is even worse.

It always puts me off when Barrowman tries to act.
... unless he's dancing at the time.

Or singing. He's so bad he even looks straight when he's trying to be gay despite being gay.

Also in the dreadful You Don't Mess with the Zohan. Adam Sandler's buttocks and his utterly random granny shagging is especially awful.

Could some one tell me why I am still watching Adam Sandler movies on Sky? Really please am I unwell?

Barrowman rides Big Black Cock for Brunch?...Dancing masterpiece so I'm told.

Especially when Webber does a cameo.

"I'll give 4 for effort." Classic.
