Movies that would annoy the AT crowd...

I think Machete will piss off anyone who wants illegal immigration to stop.

So which movie piss you off?
 
Brokeback Mountain would definitely piss off some of the homophobes here. I didn't have a problem with the movie though, it is very moving.
 
It is not the movies themselves that piss me off, so much as the people who watch it and forget "it's a movie" and cite movies as their source of how something works in the real world.

There are clearly lots of movie-goers with barely functioning brains, which I think is why they can make so many awful movies and still fill theaters.
 
Any movie that has science or tech, because people here will just try to find every possible reason why everything in it is wrong.

It's hard for me to enjoy going to the movie theaters anymore. I get really bored with the formulaic stuff. It's not a movie, but I barely got through the first season of Fringe. When I saw season 2 going exactly the same way, I just quit watching.

I walked out on my first movie a while ago, "tomorrow never dies". It formed my opinion of movie releases for quite a while afterwards, seeing as I had never walked out on a movie before that.

I had absolutely no problem with Brokeback. 15min of Bruno, though, had to turn it off. Borat was entertaining but his latter movie is just over the top gay orgy.
 
The Internet/ATOT fascination with hating on movies baffles me. A movie is either the best ever or the worst ever. Nobody seems able to enjoy a movie unless it is a life changing experience.

I love movies and only wish there were more made. Sometimes I feel bad for a movie that doesn't reach it's full potential, but only when it falls woefully short.

The last movie I turned off was the Conan reboot with Jason Momoa. I'm a huge fan of the Robert E. Howard novellas and books. I even enjoyed many of the pastiches that were written by later writers. The first Arnold movie was a huge departure in character, but still enjoyable in it's own way, as was the campy sequel. The Momoa reboot was an abomination. If I ever meet the writers and directors I would smack them all upside the head with a REH paperback.
