New one for the Hideous list:
King Arthur with Keira Knightley and Clive Owen. Man that was bad.
As an aside: I'm not too surprised that many of you might actually like Knocked Up. I just thought it was so bad I couldn't get past the first 10 minutes of it.
Watched Memento the other day. That is a fucking awesome movie.
You couldn't begin to get through Knocked Up, yet you loved Memento. Got it. You like watching the same movie over and over in ten minute segments unless you don't like that ten minutes. Whee. |

Did we mention Van Helsing yet? That movie isn't even funny in a campy way. It's just stupid.

The Haunting of Molly Hartley. Got drug to it with a friend this evening. I can't recall ever seeing such a bland, meandering, unrepentant piece of shit film.  I could have watched One Tree Hill, 90210, and Supernatural on Fox, and gotten the same thing. |

Fucking die Nicholas Cage.
I'm all over this idea. I skipped Next because I watched Ghost Rider. Also that stupid movie where he's a lame con man. And Wicker Man... GOD, WICKER MAN, AUGH!!! I loved Van Helsing. I have it on DVD. Don't wear your Serious Hat. |
Why am I homeless? Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

Edit: Which made me think of its poster, which is one of the best I know.  |

Ages?
The Rock
National Treasure 1
Matchstick Men
Adaptation
Leaving Las Vegas
And of course Lord of War.
I'd call him hit or miss. But hating him? Fuck, there's a lot of people worth hating more than he.

Dorm Daze 2.
My fiancee hates this thread. Now we have begun watching shitty movies with a critical eye. We'll watch it and try to pare down the worst, as in "Which is worse, Dorm Daze 2 or Reform School Girls?" And she hates herself for admitting Reform School Girls was a better movie, and why.
Best Cage film: Raising Arizona. The first time I saw that I was with a few people on really, really good acid, double-dipped LSD blotter. So I'm not so sure it was a good movie, but we sure thought it was amazing.

Nobody is hating. He's merely a second-rate actor whose movies deserve no closer looks. His real career (first movie in a significant role) started '83, that's 25 years ago. The Rock is 12 years old, Leaving LV is 13. If that isn't an age in Hollywood, I don't know what is.
Nicolas Cage is just another of Hollywood's assembly line one-trick ponies.

D.E.B.S. is probably the worst "movie" I've ever seen.

That's a piss poor complaint.
Edit: I should expound on that. It's a piss poor complaint because there's so many actors and actresses that are so much worse than Nic Cage. In fact, I don't even find it fair to clump him with the untouchables. Certainly there's an actual reason behind hating him.

It's still true that I did not care for the plot or his execution of the role, which describes most of the things I have seen him in lately. His character annoyed me in a similar way as in Wicker Man, only to a lesser degree. Fucking Wicker Man. I did at least get a laugh out of Face/Off before he got on my Do Not Watch list.
I'm pretty sure National Treasure was a kids movie, somewhere between Harry Potter and The Fox and The Hound in all.
Now, was it 8mm that I liked... a bit?

That's some pretty weak hate. I couldn't finish Wicker Man. And it wasn't just Nic. I hated everyone and everything about that movie.
I think your hate is misguided.

Gotta agree with Schild here, he's no Olivier but then he's not entirely without redeeming features either - why aren't we having a two minute hate towards thoroughly worthless hacks like Shannon Tweed or Adam Sandler?
Re Van Helsing, the best comment I heard coming out of the cinema was 'How the fuck do you get typecast as a feral amnesiac with a mysterious past?'

Shannon Tweed or... Adam Sandler?
Look, I understand Sandler doesn't do subdued Euro humor, but fucking Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison were awesome.

It's admittedly weak. He disgusts me in his blandness and I feel sorry for him like that cat that no one will adopt because he's not cute enough nor pathetic enough to warrant an emotional attachment. Looking like he just got up from oral surgery doesn't help, either. I save my good hate for people who offend me more, like Robin Williams, Adam Sandler (thanks, Iain!) and Jim Carrey. Will Ferrel is getting on up there. |

I like Robin Williams and Jim Carrey, too. hehe. I like everyone that everyone hates!  Especially Jim Carrey. He was great in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and The Truman Show. Granted, I don't think I see as many films or even tv shows as most of you so I probably didn't see some of the really awful stuff. |

god help me I agree with schild on Matchstick Men. And I generally don't like Nicholas Cage.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Ok, maybe I'm being too hard on Nicholas Cage, because he is in stuff that I like. But the stuff he's in that I hate; I really, really hate it. |

Oh hell yes. Cool As Ice. "Starring" Vanilla Ice, 1991. A "remake" of Rebel Without a Cause (heh). Total  I kept wanting Snoop and Dre to show up and kill the entire cast. |
