Cutthroat Island is a tight movie.

I love Hudson hawk. If it came out post-Austin Powers, it's humour would be loved. But it came out when people expected another Die Hard.

I don't think The Postman was THAT bad. It was just very boring. And "Ride Postmen, ride!"? :lol

I think they are saying worst movies but biggest fianicial disasters and Pluto Nash and Cutthroat Island are the two worst. I mean Pluto Nash will never break even, heck it hasn't even made 10 million when you combine Theaters/DVD/Tv that is bad. Also they left some films off I think Final Fantasy should be on there since it bankrupted squaresoft making Sony buy it out.

I thought Final Fantasy was a visual delight. Plus, Steve Buscemi did a voice for it. BUT... the story sucked butt.

Final Fantasy is one of my favorite movies ever. It rules. And no, I never even played the games.

I was really dissapointed in Final Fantasy, being such a big fan of the games. It looked like the graphics team had just said "Woah, look what we can do! Screw any sort of plot, let's throw in random things from the games so that people will be totally confused, but not care because hot damn, Aki Ross looks fine in that jumpsuit."

I was a bit surprised they included "Cleopatra" even though it it took a big finacial hit, simply because it did garner alot of Oscar consideration. It wasn't exactly reviled at the time. ;)

Well it nearly ruined Fox I think that is why, really. Of course its the only movie that is consider decent on the list. I doubt Battelfield Earth will be remembered in 30 years at all. And lol I liked how they said Travolta has threatened a sequel :p

Up until a few years ago Hudson Hawk was at the top of the list for all time BO flops. Big budget and less than $5 at the B.O. Man, did that movie blow chunks. Poor Danny Aiello and James Coburn. They must have had nightmares for years.

Although I guess just because it flopped at the box office doesnt' mean the movie itself necessarily sucked. I liked The Last Boy Scout as well. :p

Ok maybe my taste in movies just sucks. ;)
