This supercut from Film.com called “The Year’s Worst Movies Review Themselves” is pretty much exactly what it sounds like, and seems like it was fairly straightforward to put together, other than the obvious chore of having to sit through these movies. Dark Shadows sits there in my subconscious, like a repressed molestation memory. Nonetheless, it’s strangely watchable. Unlike most of these movies.
Any day now, a white van is going to pull up to my house. Men in black jump suits will jump out holding butterfly nets and they’ll drag me, kicking and screaming, inside, as the tires screech and my screams of “JOHN CARTER WASN’T THAT BAAAAAAAD….” is the last thing my neighbors hear.




Wait, Vince, John Carter WAS that bad…ooooooooh now I get it.
Not a single thing I disagreed with. Stunning!
I can’t imagine what, or rather who, made Dark Shadows watchable.
Eva Green.
Eva Green’s tits.
Chloe Moret…uh…Eva Green
The Dark Knight Rises should have been in that video.
Agreed.
I think people have a hard time parsing John Carter: The Movie, and John Carter: The Bad Press Machine. It’s the Waterworld effect.
I liked John Carter. It was a fun sci-fi adventure.
I wish these people would get with the times and upload stuff to YouTube. I’m 30 seconds in and that video froze up 3 times already, forcing me to reload the page.
Well, I got to say that I found John Carter amusing. I liked it. They could replace it in the video for The Five Year Engagement. Now THAT movie was simply a disaster.
True, that movie hurt. But Alison Brie copping a british accent really did it for me.
It felt like a five year MOVIE, am I right? (Seriously though, shit was boring).
Yeah, the John Carter bashing is bandwagon brain. That’s just folks re-spewing stuff they read. Because the only qualitative measurement of a movie is how much money it made, right?
In no universe is the John Carter I saw an even remotely bad movie.
John Carter isn’t bad at all. It was just a financial flop.
I thought John Carter was a lot of fun. The commercials made it seem like something it wasn’t, and it released at such a weird time. That was a summer kids movie that was marketed as an adult adventure. No, not that kind of adult adventure. Christ, I need to stop talking.
Huh, I though the consensus was that John Carter was actually decent and just horribly marketed. Still haven’t seen it myself. Nor any of these other movies either.
Only one I disagree with is American Reunion. That was a keeper, and I givest not a fucketh what thou thinketh….
Hey, I liked Casa de mi Padre alright, but I’ll admit it was more for the concept than the execution. “Will Ferrell speaks in broken Spanish” will always get a watch from me.
I loved it.
They only problem was that they marketed it as a comedy, when it’s really more a dead pan parody/homage to 1970s Mexican melodrama. It’s really not a funny movie, as such, but it’s weirdly facinating as parody—in the same way that Tim and Eric’s parody’s of infomercial/public access TV were weirdly fascinating while rarely being overtly funny.
It was definitely entertaining. Not the awesomest movie ever and it had slow parts but I wouldn’t put it on a worst movies list.
Same here. It was a bit of a one note joke, but I thoroughly enjoyed that one joke. I’m not sure I could ever watch it again, but it was pretty entertaining for a one time viewing.
What!?! No Amazing Spider-Man?! Boooo
Okay, was that an outtake from “Red Tails”? I haven’t seen it, but it really felt like an outtake.
Some of those movies weren’t so bad. I actually really liked Act of Valor, it was a great action flick.
