Saw is probably the one series that I have absolutely zero respect for. The only reason there's any story whatsoever is to trick the viewers in to believing that there's some type of rhyme or reason to justify the gratuitous violence. I'll give the first one a slither of credit since it was somewhat original, but the rest are total garbage. The fact that they are released around Halloween and pawned off as an entry to the horror genre sickens me.

Honestly, the violence isn't even what bothers me. It's the terrible acting and complete lack of story.

In no real order:
Lord of the Ring Trilogy
Shawshank Redemption
Ocean's 11 and 13
Toy Story

amauriel:
I'm glad to see Shawshank get some love...a lot of it was filmed in Ohio. The courtroom scene at the beginning was filmed at the courthouse I had to appear in when I got my underage speeding ticket. It was very, very weird to see that.

If I had to choose three, it'd probably be up there with Pleasantville, Clue, and maybe Pulp Fiction. I'd need to think about it.

jcalder8:
@amauriel, did you tell the judge that it was decidedly inconvenient that you were there?

amauriel:
Yeah...saw the movie AFTER the speeding ticket. Sorry to burst your bubble.
