    I think that's the first time I've ever heard someone not like a movie because there was "too much plot."

    "It was far too well-written a movie! I hated it."

    Pretty much anything with Ben Stiller in it.

    He's an absolutely horrific actor, and not funny in the least.

    He just acts like a fucking retard, and calls it comedy.

    i tried to watch double indemnity and i was like 'urgh, this guy is just a total bastard, plus i know he's gonna die at the end'

    so i stopped watching it and watched the third man instead, which might be in my top two movies ever

    and Will Ferrell.

    Will Ferrell is absolute shit.

    The guy has no acting range what so ever. Every part he plays, he's just Will Ferrell.

    Except Old School. Old School was alright.

    Vince Vaughn's awesomeness overpowered Will Ferrell's idiocy.

    Just so we're clear, you hate Will Ferrell's lack of range, but enjoy Vince Vaughn.

    Older Vince Vaughn (which is ironically the younger Vince Vaughn, ha ha ha, shut up) is pretty fantastic. Go watch Clay Pigeons or Made and tell me he wasn't awesome.

    Pan's Labryinth - Same reason as everyone else....

    Brokeback Mountain - Finally watched it to see if it was worthy of an oscar, and it wasn't. It just wasn't that good... sorry...

    The Lord of the Rings Trilogy/The Matrix Trilogy - Three movies that could have been condensed to one in the case of the matrix, and three movies that could have been shaved another 30 minutes each in the case of LOTR

    Those are my biggest letdowns. There's a lot of stuff that bugs me a little, like X-Men 3 for example, but overall I can accept it as a decent movie. Pan, Matrix Trilogy, and LOTR were just a huge letdown though for me.
