9. Sir Richard Burton's ill-advised cameo in Son of Flubber.
8. When Dean Jones backed the car over that darned cat.
7. When the writer of Rat Race got to page 90 and realized he
still hadn't worked in a Smashmouth cameo.
6. "But, Bill, Leonard Parts 1 through 5 caused riots outside
the printer and you were burned in effigy. Do you really want
to proceed?"
5. King-Kong relieving himself atop the Empire State Building.
4. 1974: The first answering machine message using a fake Jack
Nicholson voice.
3. "I know who'd be great in Showgirls -- that chick from
Saved by the Bell!"
2. Gus Van Sant's shot-by-shot remake of Psycho was bad enough;
his shot-by-shot remake of Andy Warhol's Empire was just
punishment.

When a bunch of spoiled, pointy-headed, out-of-touch,
caviar-slurping pinkos decided that a movie about an illiterate
Nazi statutory-rapist was more worthy of an Oscar nod than the
best comic book movie ever made.
(John English, Orem, UT)
The decision that risking $150 million on one sh*tty movie was
better than making fifteen $10 million movies of which three or
four might be good and one or two might be great.
(Dawson Rambo, Santa Rosa, CA)
