Latley though I've been thinking about how much of a girl I am and how my mind changes so frequently. With movies and such trival things I tend to sway on my opinions. There were a lot of movies that looked stupid via trailers and I refused to watch them, but upon hearing more about them I decided to jump on the bandwagon and see what the fuss was all about....turns out I liked them.
So here are some examples of movies that looked bad but turned out to be soooo great!
Then of course there are the movies that I saw advertised and just HAD to watch. They looked like something I would absolutely fall in love with. While their dissapointment and oddness did not match that of History Boys, they still are considered time wasters in my book (and I hope I don't offend anyone in my movies choices..... my movie taste is not the best I'll be the frist to admit!)
Well, there's my list if the good vs. bad (in my opinion of course!)
What are some films that surprised you in how awful or awesome they actually turned out to be???

that's a lot of movies. i haven't watched ANY of them.
i watched Children of Men which I found rubbish ( a waste of my 2 hrs if u ask me), as well as Indiana Jones (i know i know most ppl will think im crazy), movies i thought was bad but turned out to be awesome would be Julie & Julia and It's complicated (that's just the top of my head).
LOL I <3 House Bunny -- it was ridiculous and adorable.
You didn't like Thelma and Louise?
I loved House Bunny, too! :)
I HATED Rachel Getting Married too! I couldn't even watch the entire thing. Ugh!
haha! Great list!
i really wanted to watch the lovely bones. and when i watched it, i was SO disappointed. a lot of people i know liked it, but since it pretty much climaxed at the beginning, it seemed like it was just drawn out. i haven't read the book, and to be honest, i really have no interest in doing so, but i hope its better than the movie. some of the images were pretty, but still. i'm glad i watched it at the dollar theater lol.
two movies i was really surprised by were The Orphanage, by Guillermo Del Toro and the new Nightmare on Elm Street. i thought both were going to be REALLY scary (im a wuss) so i avoided watching them . but one day (well on two separate occassions), i grew a pair and decided to watch them. good movies! the orphanage reminds me of a classic horror movie, where the suspense and music make the movie, not blood, guts, and boobs. Nightmare on Elm Street was great, no cheese, and Jackie Earle Haley did a great job as Freddy Kreuger.
yeah. sorry for my ramblings :/ hope they help though!
I loved House Bunny,
