National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets.
My excuse? I was on a plane and that time was dead to me anyway. As it was hour 18 of flying I was tired so I wanted a film that wasn't taxing. It certainly wasn't taxing, good, coherent, enjoyable, believable or clever.

The 2nd Pirates of the Carribbean film
We went to see this for free as we had a friend of a friend who worked at the Odeon who got us tickets, so we had nothing to lose. Just what drivel it was, I was really bored, the film just went on forever and when it got to the end it made no sense at all. The best part of the night was the trailers, one was for Snakes on a Plane, that was probably the highlight of it all.
Factory Girl must be a close second, it was my ex-girlfriend's choice to see that one, she liked it, I thought it was utter tripe.

I struggled with two friends through 105 minutes of Get Shorty. Fucking awful.
Oh, and three series of Lost.

American Dad. I just don't get it. Family Guy's much better.

Pah. Family Guy is slavishly self-referencing and formulaic and has been since it came back.

Nah. It used to be but now all the characters are muddled and while there's still the occasional funny moment per episode it's not as consistently funny or original as AD.
and this subjective opinion is a FACT.

Good, I was worried I'd have to tell you that you were wrong and that you were a grotesquely ugly freak.

Tsk, it's not surgical, it's for dust.
