Pretty much anything Spielberg's done for the past 5 years.

A.I., Minority Report, The Terminal, War of the Worlds...

BLECH. He could put a still-frame image of elephant dung onscreen for an hour and a half and the critics would give him 4 stars.

(I haven't seen Munich. It looked different than the other tripe he's been doing lately, so maybe it was good.)

Most amazing jew boots

I don't just hate the Sci-Fi movies (as you can see above, I remembered The Terminal and edited it in).
A.I. spoilers:
A.I. had about 15 false endings, each of them sucked. My friend and I could barely contain our laughter when the "alien-looking robots from the future" came and dug out the kid and gave him his mom back. And the teddy bear climbing onto the bed at the end... it's just this sentimental crap that Spielberg does that annoys me.


WotW spoilers:
WotW was unrealistic in my opinion. Many scenes would not have played out in real life the way they were portrayed in the movie. I mean, the first time the tripod comes out of the ground, everyone's just standing around, even as it's knocking over cars and buildings. I still don't understand why the main character doesn't shout out his window at everyone: "Replace the [electrical thingie] in your car, it'll run then!" I mean, I know most people wouldn't know how to fix that, but at least start spreading the knowledge.

The movie was original in the way it only followed a single person and not the government, but then later on, when the family reached the "crazy guy" house, it fell to complete shit. I mean, why the fuck did he have to kill the guy in cold blood? And it was goofy why he said, "close your eyes" when he went into the other room and closed the door anyway. Also, the lame "Jurassic Park kitchen raptor - esque" scene with a tripod worm camera lasted way too long and wasn't tense at all.

When he blew up the tripod with a grenade, the "basket of humans" looked like a low-budget TV movie set (as it was only close-up shots, and the set barely moved, even though it's on a giant walking machine).

The movie had a rushed ending. Having Morgan Freeman hired to narrate the beginning and ending was cheesy "as soon as the creatures breathed our air and ate our food, they were dooooomed."

Again, sentimental crap that Spielberg has to throw in every movie (the son magically survives).


There's nowhere I can't reach.
