Things that sucked and continue to do so... Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

This logically finishes the series, since "Things that never sucked and still don't..." would be redundant.

Tremors, Tremors 2, Tremors 3, and Tremors: The Series.

Battlebots - Bend the rules a little. Wedges are gay. Is an Argon laser to much to ask?

HARRY ****ING POTTER AND HIS MAGICAL ****STICK

I wouldn't think a movie with so much potential for special effects would SUCK as much as the HARRY potter movies have. I'm sure the third will be an equally retarded ass hat suck fest of epic proportions.

Straight-To-Video = Cinematic Kiss of Death.

Seriously, he gets bit parts here and there. He played a gay character on Will and Grace at some point. I only know that 'cause I happened across that program at the right time (WB whores that program like Fox whores Seinfeld).

Of course the books are MUCH better. I can't wait for the PoA movie. That's my favorite book (yeah, yeah... I know I said OotP was my fav, but I realized PoA juuuuust beats it out).

As far as Tremors 4 being *gag* a Western, the "Graboids" are supposed to be some holdover from prehistoric times, not the result of nuclear testing in Nevada. Gee, that's a leap...

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Perhaps clarifying my post will help:

I hate Tremors and everything about it, so I've little interest in bothering retaining any factual recollection of it. I seem to recall them trying to pass the "Graboids" off as irradiated mutant freaks, then later passing them off as prehistoric holdovers. The problem lies in that there are a numbers of breeds that have cropped up in the species (averaging at least one new breed for each new episode of the TV series). Rapid evolution? Radiation? British Royal Extended-Familial inbreeding?

F*cked if I care. I can't stand it. I just can't stand it.

I'm not saying he's robert feraking deniro or anything... I just enjoy the roles he's played...

and tremors wasn't a true piece of film art... it was just entertaining... that's all...

the second one was moderately entertaining, but only because Alex gross (teh dad on family ties) had this big ****ing rifle and shot a huge ****ing hole through something. after that, it just got old

I do feel this Kevin Bacon hatred is puzzling. I think u haters got issues.

Michelob Ultra - Beer is not supposed to taste like water. If you want to have something without any calories or carbs try drinking liquor.

- and if you like to drink Ultra when playing a drinking game but don't want the carbs - then get a frickin life you pansy ass!

Yes, me too. Kevin Bacon deserves better. He's the actor that all the B actors envy because his fan base keeps him in A- range.

Edit - and with that favorable remark I am going to bed.
