The worst 2 movies of 2005 - wedding crashers, the ringer

[SLADE775]

Soooooo unfunny.

Soooooo not worth anyones time.

[Mercy Medical]

I may be going to see The Ringer with a friend, but he has free tickets, I think.

[Kif]

Someone suggest some funny comedies of 2005, assuming there are any.

[DroppedUrPocket]

Lies! All lies!

Wolf Creek was worse than both of those. I assure you.

He was suggesting we could also go see Fun with Dick and Jane instead.

[walshknilb281]

I have yet to see the Ringer but the worst movie of 2005 was definetly WOlf Creek, and to add insult to injury my iPod was stolen when I went to see it

It was the Austrailian dude.

i hate to say it, but the ringer and wedding crashers were two of the better comedies of 2005, with 40 year-old virgin being the best. please explain what you didnt like about these two movies (esp. wedding crashers) as im too lazy to look back at your reviews.

[btbam > you]

i liked wedding crashers but the ringer was fucking god awful.

Wedding Crashers - Bad casting, stale characters (owen and Vince are getting stuck in "those" roles), Childish unfunny plot.

The ringer - everything was bad, acting, plot, punchlines, premise, just everything.

[TJ Wells]

What'd you think of the 40 Year-Old Virgin?

[SLADE775]

What'd you think of the 40 Year-Old Virgin?

I liked it a lot.

8/10

Tons of funny scenes. Well written.

[GoWaitInTheCar]

Someone suggest some funny comedies.

Fear And Loathing in Los Vegas.

See it, if you didn't already.

[Brownpants06]

You must be on crack if you didn't find wedding crashers funny. Granted, It wasen't as good as 40YOV, but it was still hilarious. Vince Vaughn is great in that movie.

[dretti]

I liked wedding crashers.

40 year old virgin is also fucking on.

[jeremyfromva]

Wedding Crashers was one of the funniest movies i've seen in a long time...Vince Vaughn's line deliveries are always right on point in this movie.

40 yr old virgin was also funny just not as funny to me as WC.

Slade...have you seen The Producers?

[SLADE775]

Owen Wilson is not funny.

No.

I'm not a fan of broadway at all.

So i'll never see it.

Did you like it? Judging by your sig you did....

Oh and Vaughn plays the same character in every film he's in these days.

It's really getting old.

[lackofcolour 13]

man. wedding crashers was great. But. To each his own.

[jeremyfromva]

Slade even if you don't like broadway check out the producers...just give it a chance...

I hated musicals for the longest time and when I saw the producers on broadway...i started to like them (well some of them).

Its the first movie where will ferrell actually acts like a character instead of will ferrell..

Will Ferrell ruined Wedding Crashers (although I still enjoyed the movie as a whole)

[Brownpants06]

No.


Oh and Vaughn plays the same character in every film he's in these days.


Most comedians do, because, how many ways can you play a comedian?

Adam Sandler, Will Ferrel, Jim Carey, Vince, etc all basically played the same rolls, because its funny.

[lightcollapse]

i loved wedding crashers. my fav of 05.

[Darren McLeod]

Even if you didn't like Wedding Crashers, how could you possibly consider it one of the two worst movies of 2005? You have to think that there must be worse movies and comedies released last year.

[Throwback]

I really enjoyed Wedding Crashers though I agree with you that Vince Vaughn has basically played the same character in every movie he's in nowadays. However, I love the guy and found myself enjoying him cause his delivery was just hilarious. I also have a soft spot for Owen Wilson.

The Ringer was a throwaway comedy that only had one memorable line: When the fuck did we get ice cream? But overall it wasn't terrible in my opinion, just utterly forgettable. And there were worse movies this year: Dark Water, Red Eye, House of Wax and I know horror movies are easy to pick on but none of those were remotely entertaining whereas at least The Ringer made me smile.

[Throwback]

Lies! All lies!

Wolf Creek was worse than both of those. I assure you.
That movie was HORRID as well.

[DroppedUrPocket]

That movie was HORRID as well.

The only reason I stayed was in hopes that there would be some ridiculous bloodbath at the end. Alas, there was not.

It was funny because we saw it the night it came out with a bunch of ghetto people in the theater and we all get out and they're like..."More like Bullshit Creek!"

Highlight of the night.

[Darren McLeod]

The Ring 2 and The Grudge were pathetic. Don't know if that was this year or not.

[TJ Wells]

No.

I'm not a fan of broadway at all.

So i'll never see it.

then you didn't see thumbsucker i assume

[TJ Wells]

The Ring 2 and The Grudge were pathetic. Don't know if that was this year or not.
i think the ring 2 was this year, i know the grudge wasnt.

[Lamp Shade]

Slade...have you seen The Producers?

This movie slaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayed.

'Keep It Gay' was the best scene I saw in theatres in '05.

[asianxcore]

Soooooo unfunny.

Soooooo not worth anyones time.
Sounds like you.

[whiteboypain]

40 year old virgin!

[Drew Beringer]

I just bought Wedding Crashers because it's fuckin awesome.

[fluke182]

I don't understand how you couldn't find Wedding Crashers funny.

[fluke182]

I'd say worst movie of the year was easily the Transporter 2. Most disappointing/overrated was definitely A History of Violence. There was a good amount of desperately bad movies this year, and a lot of movies that were also painfully boring. Kinda a rough year for movies, maybe in comparison to last year when Eternal Sunshine, Garden State and I Heart Huckabees were just wonderful.

[NameTaken69]

i love wedding crashers but i think 40 year old virgin was the funniest movie of the year

[Kif]

That movie was HORRID as well.
I just watched Wolf Creek and I thought it was great. It felt like Blair Witch meets Texas Chainsaw Massacre, without the chainsaw and in Austrailia to me. The way the characters are introduced and then played on screen, some of the excellent shots, the unusual way it was written (Killing the leading lady first? You never see that in Hollywood horrors).

Granted, it wasn't the best slasher flick ever. But with what you were given, a potential of 3 victims, and a high probability that at least 1 will survive, I think they made a great movie. Easily one of the best horror movies of late thanks to a slur of remakes and sequels. Nice to see something that wasn't nicked from Japan too.

[SLADE775]

Wedding Crashers = most dissapointing Comedy Ever

[FstFtsVsFences]

Wedding Crashers = most dissapointing Comedy Ever
The movie was horrible, but I still would defend Vaughn in it. It's the closest he's gotten lately to how he was in Swingers and Made. I'd buy Wedding Crashers just to see him even though it's my pick for worst movie of the year. Weird huh, haha.

I dont really buy DVD's.

If i'm gonna watch a movie I go to the theatres.

So you're a vaughn fan huh, I'm not, I liked him in old School though.

[Kif]

I might see if I can borrow Wedding Crashers, but from what I've seen of it, I'm not expecting much.

[radiofriendly]

nah...dirty love was the worst film of the year.

i can understand the ringer. it was wretched. don't waste your money. the retard gag could only go so long...

Wedding Crashers i loved. i mean...i loved it...to each his own. i don't see it close to being the worst film or most dissapointing. i thought the cast was pitch perfect(the whole gay little bro artist thing was kind of lame) but the humor was sharp, and it's just so charming. it has its faults, but it was certainly better than i expected. it was anything i didn't think it was going to be.

Vince Vaughn is great at what he does. fast talking dry humor. he's proven he can tread water, and i don't hold it against him and many other comedians of his genre that are cast on a stereotype and personality.

He can practically do no wrong in my eyes. His to-the-point asshole stuff just kills me. I've got quite a soft spot for him.

[Vincewithouthee]

Wedding Crashers was okay. I was really stoned when I saw it, so my opinion isn't valid.

The Ringer....I'm not even going to bother.

The 40 Year Old Virgin is one of the best comedies in a long, long time. Hilarious. I love it.

[brutusUbastard]

You mean High Tension and Star Wars Episode 3 right

[hotfuss84]

I loved The Ringer, I thought it was one of the funniest movies I've seen in awhile.

[LostSymphonies]

as long as i don't see more than 1 movie with Will Ferrel in it in 2006 i'll be happy. It was seriously Will Ferrel overkill in 2004/2005

[Talib Scottie]

We know we know,. you have a strong dislike for the Ringer which I knew would be crap and the movie that's just as funny as 40 year old virgin with less dry spells.

[Talib Scottie]

as long as i don't see more than 1 movie with Will Ferrel in it in 2006 i'll be happy. It was seriously Will Ferrel overkill in 2004/2005
It doesnt help that his choice in starring roles has been horrible lately.

[Saves The Night]

It doesnt help that his choice in starring roles has been horrible lately.yeah i think if he actually did something like old school again it would be awesome...Bewitched??? we got fucked on that one guys.

[Talib Scottie]

The family movies are becoming a problem

[Saves The Night]

The family movies are becoming a problemyeah, but i will admit, i still love elf

[DroppedUrPocket]

Elf was great.

[Talib Scottie]

Elf was great.
I thought it was alright.

[FstFtsVsFences]

Star Wars Episode III was beautiful.

[Talib Scottie]

Star Wars Episode III was beautiful.
It was the best out of the newbies but still can't hold a candle to the original.

[preppyak]

dukes of hazzard
True Story.

Wedding Crashers had one of the worst endings I have seen this year, completely devoid of humor. Vince Vaughn has some good lines, but thats about it, the plot was mediocre at best and the rest of the actors were terrible. I mean, even Christopher Walken's novelty wore off as the movie wore on.

Not the worst, but not a very good comedy as a whole, especially when, within the same genre of comedy, 40 year old virgin managed to stay largely mature with a subject they could have put hundreds of stupid virgin jokes in.

Bewitched and Dukes of Hazard i saw on the same night back to back at a drive in. I wanted to drive into the screen to kill myself. If Will Ferrell ever picks a movie like that again, I hope he gets shot. And Johnny Knoxville proved that even Jackass is above his acting level.

Star Wars Episode III was beautiful.
Any dialogue involving Hayden Christiansen should have been cut from the film if they wanted it to be a great movie. I LOVE Natalie Portman, but Lucas' inability to write dialogue almost killed her, and in the first death scene that she's done (that I know of) I just laughed it was so bad. His love dialogue was so cliched and unbelievable that I wanted the hurt him. Watch the scene on the balcony between Hayden and Natalie, it states my point for me.

It was good, but far from one of the better films this year

[Heart-A-Tact]

I already hate Wedding Crashers, and I haven't even seen it. All I ever hear at school is, "Oh, you don't know how close you came to getting chucked.."

..I don't even want to see it now.

I don't even remember that line and I watched it yesterday. It's not really a quotable movie.

Oh Will Ferrel, nevermind.

[kevin111]

What were sme good flicks this year then? I saw King Kong a few nights ago, I dug that. Has anyone seen Munich? I really want to go see it, I am actually planning on going tonight.

[fluke182]

Munich was excellent, extremely intense and sad. There were a lot of good movies this year, but not a lot of great movies.

[Darren McLeod]

Although I liked wedding crashers, if someone else says "motorboat" and does the action i'm going to shoot them.

[preppyak]

Munich was excellent, extremely intense and sad. There were a lot of good movies this year, but not a lot of great movies.
I agree, even a standout movie like Crash had it's flaws that held it back. Likewise with Syriana. It seemed very much like the music this year, excellent when you see/hear it, but ultimately forgettable after the year is over.

Haha, that is a clutch line though. That and "Ma, the meatloaf, fuck!" are just awesome lines from that movie. Too bad it lacked the plot and supporting acting to make it good
