Last movie you didn't watch
August 13, 2020 at 9:10 pm
Here's a thread for movies that you started watching but then gave up.
Dear John 2010 - oh no, why did I even start watching this? Channing Tatum plays this "really cool", lone wolf soldier for whom Amanda Seyfried quickly falls in love with, for all the lowest denominators, like he can start a campfire.
And then her "regular Joe" brother or a cousin, threatens this warrior, in a very sweet and loving way, how he will break his legs if he hurts her.
River Runs Through It 1993 - kind of a good setting with the old photos, but it is a boring movie about "life" (fishing).
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Well, the first time I tried to watch Ken Branagh’s Hamlet this year (for my Anglotopia column), the first disc just crapped out around the 76-minute mark and rendered the rest of it (which would be from about the end of Act I to Act IV, scene iv) literally unwatchable. Fortunately, the library reopened for remote pickup and allowed me to check out a properly functioning copy. Does that count?
Or maybe Reprisal, which I watched for the Deep Hurting Project, and while I let it play to the end, I just stoped giving a shit after I think the 22-minute Mark because nothing was fucking happening.
