Average Jane and Bad Movies

I saw on The Onion AV Club blog that movie review site Rotten Tomatoes has published a list of the 100 worst films of the last ten years. These days I'm busy enough that I don't get out to the movies much, so I'd managed to avoid almost every movie on the list. The four that I did see, I saw on video or DVD. But here's the thing: I didn't think they were that bad.

• The Adventures of Pluto Nash - Sure, it's not Eddie Murphy's best movie, but I didn't think it was the crashing disaster that it's made out to be. I like science fiction and I like comedy - it's both.
• Corky Romano - "Question? No. Question? No. Question? No. I should buy a boat!" It isn't a comic masterpiece, but it was definitely good for some laughs.
• Dirty Love - I have seen this movie a half-dozen times and I love it without reservation. It's definitely a girl movie, though, so if the Rotten Tomatoes reviewers are mostly guys, that's probably why they didn't like it. 
• The Whole Ten Yards - Okay, not exactly a timeless classic, but certainly entertaining enough. I'll agree that Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry weren't overly exerting themselves for this particular paycheck, but it had its moments. 

How many of the movies on the list have you seen? Were they as bad as all that?

Wow. I know I am not a big fan of movie-going, but I was surprised to discover that I haven't seen ANY of the movies listed. Not one. I guess I dodged that bullet, eh?

I am a big fan of movie-going (or I was, 'til it got so expensive. Now I'm a fan DVRing, or NetFlixing), and I haven't seen any of those either.

I noticed that a lot of 'em were sequels, and that the ones that spawned the sequels weren't on the list. Maybe Hollywood should take note: if it works, quite while you're ahead.

I haven't seen any of the 4 you listed. In fact, I checked the big 100 and I may have seen Christmas with the Kranks. Otherwise, nary a one! And I see a lot of movies.

Way to defend your four, though.

LOL, I have to admit to seeing many of them. Most deserve to be on the list. BUT, Christmas with the Kranks is very funny.

And TWO Larry the Cable Guy movies are on the list. Say what you want, he gives his audience what they expect. Should only be on the list if you expect DeNiro
