Sign up for the BuzzFeed QuizZes Newsletter - Binge on the latest quizzes delivered directly to your inbox with Quizze's newsletter! Hate-watching has become a TV phenomenon. In general, this term is used to describe regularly tuning into a show despite - or because of - the fact that it just makes you angry. Maybe you're doing it out of loyalty to a show you once loved. Or maybe you just enjoy observing how awful TELEVISION can be. So does this apply to movies as well? While it's a completely different phenomenon - since movies are a limited, two-hour experience as opposed to the ongoing narrative of a show - there are definitely movies we find ourselves loving to hate-watch, too. This is very different than laughing at so bad they are good movies. With something like The Room or Birdemic, it's hard to feel any real fury during a viewing; they're just so horrible, they make us laugh. The movies we're talking about here aren't necessarily the worst that's ever been made. They are the more mainstream Hollywood blockbusters who, for various reasons, fill us with rage. But at the same time, we don't find ourselves turning off the film and might not even be against seeing a second or third time to soak in mediocrity. 1. Spider-Man 3 Spider-Man 3 | Sony It's still outrageous to think of Spider-Man 3, which spotted what could have been a fabulous trilogy of superhero movies. This was one of the early comic book movies to suffer from a problem that would later become more widespread: trying to squeeze in too much plot from the source material of a film. But there are bigger issues, such as Sam Raimi not nailing the right tone during Peter's symbiote scenes. We can see what he went for, but the result is just cringe-worthy - but perversely entertaining. Throw in a subplot about Mary Jane's acting career and a bewildering scene in which the butler comes out of nowhere to reveal information he clearly should have revealed a lot earlier, and you have a movie that still gets Spider-Man fans' blood boiling. Next: This disaster movie from Roland Emmerich is ridiculously bad, but kind of fun to watch. 2. 2012 2012 | Columbia Pictures' Roland Emmerich's long career of blowing things up naturally led up to 2012, his most lovable hateful film. The end-of-the- world flick is filled with absolutely every disaster movie cliché in the book - from the cute dog we're rooting to get to safety to scenes of people flying planes through destruction, while for some reason, remains strangely close to the ground. The dialogue is consistently terrible, we don't care about the characters, and the plot is as illogical as you'd expect. The only thing that really did work at the time were the special effects, which are not aged well and are now hilarious to look at. Catch the movie playing on cable, though, and you might just find yourself hanging for longer than you expected. Next: This latest Netflix movie became a hate-watching phenomenon. 3. Bright Bright | When Netflix released Bright in December 2017, critics declared it one of the worst films of the year. You will begin to understand why very quickly by starting the movie and seeing the logo of Trigger Warning Entertainment. What follows is a film full of on-the-nose dialogue and mythology that seems to have been barely thought through. When screenwriter Max Landis was asked a perfectly reasonable question about the fictional world on Twitter - why does Shrek exist in a universe where orcs are real? - His answer was a simple, I do not know, symbolic of how little he seems to have considered any of the details of his own creation. But 11 million people saw Bright within the first three days. As a result, it is getting a sequel. With Netflix, hate looks are easier than ever, and it really doesn't matter to them if anyone enjoyed the movie. Next: One of the most popular franchises ever reached its lowest point in this sequel. 4. Star Wars Episode II - Attack of Clones Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of Clones | 20th Century Fox One reason people sometimes hate-watch TV is that the show in question is someone they used to love. Therefore, despite a dramatic decline in quality, they can't tune out. Well, that's how it felt to see Star Wars prequels, the worst of which is easy Attack of the Clones. The film fails primarily because of the central relationship between Anakin and Padme. It's as poorly executed as being painful to watch, even if it's meant to be a love story for ages. Padme never even seems to be special in Anakin for most of the film. Eventually, she suddenly decides she is, only we can not tell through anything but dialogue. But it's still a Star Wars movie, and one with enough good in it that even haters can find themselves again watching it during annual marathons. And now that lines like I don't like sand have become memes, hate-watching it's become even more fun. Next: This is among the strangest horror sequels ever made. 5. Seeds of Chucky Seed by Chucky | Rogue Pictures There is no mainstream horror series that went in a stranger direction than Child's Play. After three Chucky sequels that were relatively straightforward and followed naturally from what came before, Don Mancini took a sharp turn with Bride of Chucky, who heavily emphasized comedy and featured a Chucky who smokes weed and has sex. But it wasn't even the lowest point. That would be the next installment, Seed of Chucky. In this The main character, Chucky's doll son Glen, is deeply aggravating, as is the human plot involving Jennifer Tilly's career. All the jokes - and there are a lot of them - are so unfunny that we actually feel secondhand embarrassment for everyone involved. Like Attack of the Clones, Chucky fans have a love-hate relationship with this one. It does deliver a few things we'd like in a Child's Play movie, but all in all, it's just a terrible experience. Next: This latest superhero movie was a complete disaster from start to season. 6. Suicide Squad Suicide Squad | Warner Bros. Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice is a terrible movie that, worse than anything else, is not much fun to watch. The next DC movie, Suicide Squad, is equally poor quality wise. But hate-watching this one isn't actually the worst experience in the world. The David Ayer film feels randomly produced, especially in the opening act, which rushes through a ridiculous amount of information by having a character just sit at a table and explain it. Half of the script consists of the characters telling the audience over and over again that they are the bad guys! All jokes are complete duds and are sometimes actively offensive. And when the film tries to reach an emotional climax at the end, it's comical how undeserving it is. Still, Suicide Squad is a bit of an entertaining movie to watch and tear apart afterwards as yet another example of the DC universe's shortcomings. Next: For some reason, audiences keep showing up watching these movies in theaters, despite not really liking them. 7. Transformers Sequels Transformers: Dark of the Moon | Paramount Pictures Why is the average person even still going to see Transformers movies? Ever since Revenge of the Fallen, millions of fans come out of the theater every time complaining about everything from plot inconsistencies to the racist side characters and casual sexism. But those same people continue to return to the next one. There is perhaps no better example of a series that a huge percentage of audiences are actively hate-watching. With the latest entry, Transformers: The Last Knight, it became clearer than ever that reveling in awfulness and laughing at the revelation that Harriet Tubman and Abraham Lincoln used to hang out with Transformers is the only way to watch these movies and maintain one's sanity. Next: This movie lost a huge amount of money and earned terrible reviews, but was kind of worth seeing in theaters. 8. Gods of Egypt Gods of Egypt Gods of Egypt | Summit Entertainment Say what you want about Alex Proyas' big budget 2016 flop Gods of Egypt, but it's never boring. Throughout the two-hour driving time, Proyas constantly introduces crazy ideas that keep us entertained, either because they're really cool or because we can't believe how stupid they are. The strangest decision is to use digital effects to make all the gods much bigger than humans. The resulting image of a god standing next to a human never looks right and is sometimes unintentionally funny - it's no Lord of the Rings. Sure, none of the drama really works. But with a film that features Geoffrey Rush battling a giant space snail, how could you not keep an eye? Next: This latest comic book movie is among the worst ever made. 9th Fantastic Four (2015) Fantastic Four | 20th Century Fox In the same way that Suicide Squad is a weirdly entertaining watch because of how bad it is, so is the 2015 version of Fantastic Four.

  • T Run up the Stairs!’: Why Removing the Paramount Decrees Would Be Bad for Hollywood
    ‘DON’T RUN UP THE STAIRS!’: WHY REMOVING THE PARAMOUNT DECREES WOULD BE BAD FOR HOLLYWOOD TYLER RIEMENSCHNEIDER* I. INTRODUCTION Have you ever watched a really great scary movie? A tingle runs down your spine and you feel your muscles tense up as you watch the monster slowly close in on the film’s protagonists. You can feel a sense of dread building up within you; try as they might, the camp counselors, the newly-moved family, the babysitting high schooler, are all helpless. Sure, maybe they’ve made some dumbfounding mistakes (“Don’t run up the stairs!”), but do they deserve the fate they’re sure to meet? In many ways, modern Hollywood feels like a scary movie. Long gone are the days where the major film studios used anticompetitive tactics to bend the rest of the industry to their will. That era was brought to an end via the Paramount Decrees, a series of consent decrees and court opinions in the 1940s and 1950s which used antitrust law to break up the studios’ control and allowed other groups to gain a foothold in the industry.1 Instead, the studios are playing the roles of horror-movie victims, desperately trying to escape the clutches of the Silicon Valley boogeyman. Not only are streaming services like Netflix and Amazon providing consumers with a cheaper, more * Juris Doctor Candidate, 2020, The Ohio State University Michael E.

  • The Irish Journal of Gothic and Horror Studies 17 (Autumn 2018)
    The Irish Journal of Gothic and Horror Studies 17 (Autumn 2018) The First Purge, dir. by Gerard McMurray (Universal Pictures, 2018) The First Purge might initially appear to have nothing original about it – it seems to be little more than a B movie, where participants have twelve hours to commit whatever crimes they wish without repercussion. There are, however, a few interesting elements to the film, the fourth instalment of the Purge franchise (2013-present). Building upon the earlier chapters, The First Purge, the most financially successful film in the series to date, has a slightly more developed and insightful narrative, especially from a social-science and economic perspective, and provides some depth to the concept of ‘Purge Night’.1 Directed by Gerard McMurray and starring Y’lan Noel, Lex Scott Davis, Joivan Wade, Mugga, Luna Lauren Velez, Kristen Solis, and Marisa Tomei, the film depicts the origins of the yearly activity as a ‘social experiment’. Set in the mid-twenty-first century, the government has been overthrown by the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA). The main action of The First Purge begins with NFFA members Arlo Sabian (Patch Darragh) and Dr May Updale (Marisa Tomei) announcing live on TV that the experimental purge will take place on Staten Island. Before this, we see various interviewees being asked questions to judge their suitability for the experiment. The NFFA offers five thousand dollars to the residents of the island to stay in their homes during the experiment, as well as financial compensation to those directly participating in the violence; Staten-Island inhabitants can choose to take part, though few of them do.

  • Political Theory Capstone Paper
    1 Mackenzie Graham Dr. Andrew Lotz PS1681: Pop Culture and Political Theory 25 April 2019 The Purge Movie Series: Depiction of Human Nature Under “Anarchy” Dr. Updale: “I know what you’re doing. You’re sending soldiers into the island disguised as gangs, as citizens – hunting people down using the tracking implants. You’re making it look like people are participating because there wasn’t enough purging.” The First Purge I. Introduction The Purge movie series presents an interesting take on what a future would look like where a government allows people full freedom for one night a year to commit any crime they desire without consequences. Additionally, this series comments on what different groups of people would do, along with their motivations, under this lawlessness. The Purge series shows what actions people take on this night, deemed “Purge night”, which makes a larger claim about what human nature is like when there are no laws or consequences. Specifically, this series intentionally comments on and brings to light the fact that even though the government is not meant to interfere during Purge night (making this night seem like anarchism), the government is still heavily involved – such as through the prominent theme of the government being responsible for murders throughout the movies. The government sanctions this night of “lawlessness” (in other words, a type of fake anarchy) in order to keep their power and control. The Purge is a trick the government uses to maintain its rule. 2 A. Thesis The Purge series builds on some anarchists’ claims that human nature is influenced heavily by outside factors by showing that on Purge night (a night of lawlessness), there is still a large influence by the wealthy and powerful.
