Topic: Movies you dislike that most like

I really enjoyed The Last Airbender. Never watched the cartoons so thats probably why I dont see anything wrong with the movie.

Like what? I mean, hell, the entire climax was word for word the same as the as the first season, and the beginning was really similar, too. Maybe the middle was changed? I honestly don't remember anything about the middle of the first season besides there being tons of filler.

That was intentional. -.-

The avatar state was completely different in the end when he fends off the fire nation with it, the fire nation soldiers weren't fighting after the fish was killed, there was no stupid "hey let's be friends moment between the Aang and Prince Zuko (these three were just events at the end that were changed, now for some other things that were changed), the fire benders didn't need fire around to bend, it didn't take 5 minutes or them to perform basic bending and it still took longer to do that in the movie than the pretty fancy moves did in the series, and Zuko wasn't Indian (hope that doesn't sound racist). I'm sure I missed things too.

I liked M. Night's The Last Airbender, personally. Don't get me wrong: it was a horrible movie, one of the most poorly acted I've seen in many a year! It doesn't help any that a whole season has been crammed to around a hundred minutes' length, and Zuko's sister literally gets only one line throughout the whole movie ("I do, father!") and it ends with a sequel bait, forcing herself a smile. I did like how it was atmospheric, and the color choices were decent. The special effects are all right, the final scene with Aang and the wave is purely epic (thanks in part to James Newton Howard's music), and I thought Noah Ringer did a rather all right job as the last Airbender. And of course, James Newton Howard's soundtrack was just wonderful (I have yet to meet someone who doesn't like his music). At the end of the day, I like it for what it is: a guilty pleasure; I know it's bad, but I cannot help but find myself engaged and enjoying myself. In my opinion it's a dumb movie, but a fairly likable one.

Bring this thread back to life

I watched Superman (1978), since I had heard great things about. Me and the guy I watched it with both thought it sucked. The plot was ludicrous, and the acting was incredibly corny, IMO.

Umm...I have not yet stayed awake through an entire Lord of the Rings movie. (And I've consciously tried on many occasions!)

Brave. Was sooooooooooo boring! Made it through half the movie then stopped it and returned it to video shop. Very bland and dull.

I agree with that. Although part of the reason I didnt like Brave was that it was too similar to Brother Bear.

The Avatar with the blue dudes and perhaps even the Lost Airbender one. The former went on too long and just sucked in general.
Also, The Hunger Games.

Meh, I don't usually watch anything that I won't like...its rare...that said, last movie I watched I didn't like was Kick-A**.

Aliens. Everybody seems to agree that this is a "classic." I've never cared for it. I love Alien. Alien IS a classic. It's an extremely well-made, suspenseful, intelligent sci-fi thriller with great acting, great characters, and the best movie monster ever created. Aliens, however, is a low-budget, cheesy, B-grade, crappy 80's action movie with amateurish dialog and sub-par acting. There are some movies that fit that description that I actually enjoy. But for some reason, I just have never cared for Aliens. Maybe because it just doesn't compare well to the first one (as far as my personal taste in movies goes).

Any Marvel movie besides Captain America. Dark Knight Rises... Hangover... can't think of anymore. I'm sure there's much more. I don't watch that many movies though.

What's THO? The Hour Otter?

-Dark Knight Rises (I don't dislike it, but it was mighty disappointing)
-The Lotr movies

The Harry Potter movies

Some picks in this thread, I agree with:
The Dark Knight Rises
Wall-E

Haven't seen Brave? Check it out, at least if the 'medieval epic-ness meets childish impulse mixed with copious amounts of humor' -thing, appeals to you!

I hated and found The Hunger games really boring. To an extent that I almost fell asleep halfway.

I also hated The Hunger Games! The poorly drawn, horribly written, terrifyingly inconsistent comic book adaptation I made in the 7th Grade has a less confusing plot than the movie!
