Movies that made you vomit

Yes, 300 definitely made me vomit. It was nothing but CGI and none too subtle conservative propaganda. I think, ultimately, it ended the relationship I was in at that time - we had only been dating for a few months, and our extremely different reactions to SPPARRRRTTAAA made us both realize that we were not compatible.

lol. I loved it!

Mostly for all the ass kicking.

The purely visceral experience of watching the fights was exciting, yes, but I'm kind of a film snob. For whatever reason, I get a better adrenaline rush from watching horror films.

The guy in question had subjected me to a series of moronic, mediocre films leading up to 300, which in truth was probably the best of the bunch. I found him to be a bit low brow, and he wasn't at all interested in any film that wasn't mainstream U.S.A. We didn't break up that night, but I know in my heart that was the beginning of the end. ;)

I'm a snob too, but I like Gerard Butler (kinda has a retrosexual thing going on).

Yeah, I'll admit that I liked Rob Zombie's Halloween, and that's surely not on anyone's art house list. The simple truth is that I just didn't like 300.

Do you think it could have been that you were realizing that your boyfriend was not for you and disliking 300 (when he liked it) was an appropriate symbolization of the beginning of the end?

It was an appropriate symbolization when afterwards I wanted to analytically discuss it and he insisted on keeping things "simple." It reminded me of the lively discussions I had with my film collector ex, and how this assuredly would not be happening with Mr. Simpleton, no matter how nice he smelled or where he took me for dinner.

I've seen a half of Terminator about 6 or 7 years ago. Maybe I was just too young to understand it (10-12 years), but after watching a half of it I didn't feel like watching the other half. Maybe I didn't take the right movie as an example, but i think you got what I meant about those action type of movies.

Sex in the city.

I mean.... the voices in my head were like no
nooo
noooo

voice 4 was exploring the less painful option of hari kari with a rusty blender filled with boiling tar, and has not been heard of since :(

Not since the tooth fairy/Cinderella etc, has my brain been subjected to a fairytale of such pantaloons proportions - and cliché after cliché...rotted my easily impressionable man mind to such a degree I can no longer form coherent thought and I shuffle away mumbling in slippers frothing at the mouth
:D

You mean Sex and the city the movie?
If yes, than I couldn't agree more. I like the tv show, but the movie was such a letdown. It was so hackneyed and cheesy I couldn't keep from rolling my eyes and making sarcastic remarks every now and then.
I went to the movies with my, apparently less demanding, ISTP and ISTJ girlfriends and they said I was cold-hearted :D

Also Unborn was so bad it was good, they made it unintentionally funny.

And I remember really hating Me, myself and Irene, because it was so crude, I couldn't even watch it, and the Pursuit of Happyness (2006), I saw it in the movie theatre too with some other friends and we could hardly stay through the whole thing, it was so dull.

^ it seems like the directors do that on purpose. They film it in such a way that man on man rape= nightmare and female on female rape = fantasy/classic voyeurism. Kinda weird but the public seems used to it by now.

I wouldn't even attempt to watch the Sex and the City movie. I cannot fathom how thinking people even subject themselves to more than one episode of the television show.
