Name Some Big Budget Movies You Hated
It doesn't have to be Avatar big, it just needs to have been produced by a main-stream studio and have that "block-buster" feel. Also tell why you hated it and if it did a good job on any specific part let us know about that too.

I saw The Mist based on a Stephen King story and pretty much hated it. The entire premise was heavy on the dumb side, the characters were all extremely two dimensional and I thought their reactions were unrealistic in the extreme. Felt like the story was just an excuse to make fun of religious people. Hated that the "artist" somehow turned into a "leader" that everyone wanted to listen to and follow. The ending was cliched too, too much of a "twist" for my taste. Pretty much hated the Father for doing what he did, it was such a stupid decision and kind of felt like it unintentionally indicted his own liberal philosophy. "I know what's best for everybody, so I won't even talk to my son before making a giant decision and then turning out to be completely stupidly wrong for doing so." HATE HATE HATED THIS MOVIE!!!

That said, I like the atmosphere and some of the action from the major "good guys" was decent if a little over-the-top. Loved the monster design and am a sucker for movies where people have to hunker down to survive.

The bad outweighed the good, however.

It's time to make TPWW MEAT again!

Quote:
Unlike traditional grills which cook food from a single, direct heat source, the Pit Barrel® Cooker’s cylindrical shape and “Hook-and-Hang” method places the food in the center of the action, heating the meat from all sides at once, producing consistently great-tasting, perfectly cooked meat every time.

Also have some popcorn.
