OMG John Travolta sounds like comic book guy in battlefield earth! Not menacing at all.

The Science Theater commenting on Battlefield Earth was priceless

Of the films mentioned I've only seen Christmas with The Kranks which I thought was perfectly fine as far as thoroughly safe family fare goes certainly a lot better than Wild Hogs, The Santa Clause 3, or Cheaper by the Dozen for whatever it's worth.

Good Luck Chuck was the worst movie of last year. This is wrong

Agreed. Good Luck Chuck was incredibly bad. Its easily the worst film of all times. Its disgusting, brainless and downright annoying. This movie sucked so hard, its beyond words. I still harbor a dying and an immortal hatred for this piece of **** flick.

"And get me a Royale with cheese!", priceless!

I know it's no big surprise but notice that almost every year the best reviewed film is a product of Pixar.

I just have to say, Chill Factor was unlucky to be in that mess, as ive only seen 2 of the 10 and probably 3-4 runners up (thank RT!). Also Alone in the Dark is officially the worst movie i've seen, Chill Factor looks like The Godafather compared to it.

Did anyone else notice that a Pixar film was listed about 8 times out of 10 as the "Best Reviewed"?

The Pixar films are always going to be best reviewed on Rotten Tomatoes, because they are all vanilla. They can appeal to everyone and they dont offend anyone. How many great horror or action films have you seen critics just dismiss as, "too violent" or "sends a bad message to kids." In all honesty for action and horror movies I prefer them to be around 50-60% on rotten tomatoes because if you arent offending at least the fat, 60 year old, feminist, lesbian blogger critic, then you probably dont have a good action or horror movie. People take the rotten tomatoes score too seriously. You can usually tell whats horrible when it appeals to no one, and you can tell whats family friendly, semi inspirational, or safe good fun when it scores in the 90-100, but for certain types of films you dont want a 95% or so.

Good Luck Chuck is by far the worst movie of last year, some friends wanted to watch it so we rented it (this was just when I started using RT, and I didn't check before I watched it...) It was awful, definitely the worst comedy I have seen and one of the worst movies period. 0% from top critics and 2.6 avg rating while Because I Said So is 9% and 3.7 avg rating. Why isn't Good Luck Chuck the winner?

Coens only succeed half the time? Bull! They've only made 2 bad films.

Sometimes critics are just plain stupid. I don't care what anyone says about me or my taste in movies, Christmas With The Kranks is a thoroughly enjoyable movie. It always cheers me up after a bad day. I love it.

As for everything else, I've only seen Corky Romano and that had exactly one funny part......."You guys want some cookies?"

Oh, and Because I Said So. Diane Keaton created the most irritating character to ever be on screen. I hate that movie soley because of her. Well, that and the fact that the movie is just plain boring.

alright, i know that Pixar movies are cute and very well made, but best-voted film for 8 years? come on. what the hell is that?

Aug 7 - 10:45 PM

Nathan Miller

Ok, So I totally agree with the whole Pixar thing. Sure they're good movies, but how in the world do they continue to get the best pic. reviews year after year. In fact, Wall-e is sure to get it again this year. C'mon, The Dark Knight was a far superior film in every way. Now I'm not a huge comic buff, but I know a good film and a great script when I see it and Wall-e doesn't deserve all the praise it received.

Also, Alone in the Dark is by far the worst movie of the last couple of years. Its horrid!

Aug 7 - 11:44 PM

Alex Reyes

ok, here goes again the anti pixar discussion. They DONT say its the best movie of the year, they say its the best reviewed by most people. That is IT. Now, saying that the dark knight is better than the Wall E isnt necessarily true. The dark knight has its "look how serious a movie I am" parts when trying to portray some relevant issues of today, but it fails in doing it seriously as it is more concerned on being successful. It is an awesome, super likeable by the masses, impressive movie whose accomplishments outshine its numerous flaws, but its flaws are there. Wall E is similar in that way, its accomplishment outshines its numerous flaws, but, although it doesnt reach the level of excitedness it brings on people, I consider it a slightly better artistic achievement. I still hope neither of these films is the best film this year, even if among the best.

i noticed that underneath the runner ups for worst movie, most of the best reviewed movies were animated pixar movies aimed kids. Those movies are great dont get me wrong, but its kind of a sad fact for the majority of hollywood.

I didn't have any issues with the top Worsts of each year, but I noticed at least a couple movies -- "54" and "White Noise" specifically -- that I actually liked. I guess the critics are just wrong sometimes. ;)

I've never sat through "Battlefield Earth", but that clip of the movie was painful to watch. I'd rather watch a 24-hour Kevin Costner marathon than put myself through that entire movie just once.

Emma Phillips

Oh my gosh! Your comment about the 24 hour Kevin Costner marathon made me laugh out loud. I agree, the clip of Battlefield Earth was painful to watch.

Aug 10 - 09:57 PM

Steven Edwards

I actually have always thought that White Noise was a great movie.

Add a pinch of "I'm going to kick your..."
And then mix with explosion until it's a fine paste.

Even by game-to-film standards, 2005's Alone in the Dark is shockingly bad -- something that even the most ardent fans of the popular game must have known as soon as they saw the talent assembled behind the scenes. Would you believe it took three people to write this screenplay, loaded with corn-scented dialogue like "fear is what protects you from the things you don't believe in"? The critics who watched it all unfold onscreen were just as dumbfounded; Rue Morgue Magazine's Jovanka Vuckovic, for instance, called it "overblown, amateurish gibberish."
