Lord of the Ring. All the movies. I think they could have cut the movies to half the duration. Good thing I didn't pay for the tickets because I've never fallen asleep so many times in the theatre.
Try John Huston's The Dead for sheer brain numbing boredom when all you want is a few car chases and explosions. Damm you culturally correct ex girlfriend for making me endure that.
'2001' is still the best space movie to date despite all of the advances in special effects made 40+ years later. Somehow people today still don't get that there is no noise or fire in a vacuum and that gravity doesn't exist everywhere. This movie is an ADD person's nightmare which is probably why it would tank if released today.
Oh, yeah, I remember now: Open Water. It was so boring, beginning with the Handsome Couple cheerfully brushing their teeth together, that by the end, it was just a relief when the woman gave herself up to the hungry sharks. Didn't care by that time, it's over, good.
I don't know why but I kind of liked that movie- it was kind of like you were sharing their boredom and suspense at the same time. And I just liked that it didn't have a typical Hollywood ending.
Speaking about filmed in one location, have you guys seen 'Buried'? Holy crap... (spoiler) I didn't think they were serious about filming the entire movie inside of that coffin. IMDB says the budget for that movie was $3M. I'm guessing $2.5M was for Ryan Reynolds, $250k was for legal, promo and catering- and the rest was for location and post-production.
I mentioned that very film early on in this thread. I just could not, for the life of me, remember the title. Yes, I did see it. Yes, I will not disagree with you on that one. I actually saw it in a movie theater with no fast forward. Slow forward might be going out and hanging with the popcorn machine for a few hours and then returning and still have plenty more of Jeanne and her life to watch and savor. She ends up stabbing one of her Johns towards the end. Oh no, now I've gone and ruined it for all of you!
