    Way off on that one; Patrick Swayze was robbed of an Oscar. His performance as Dalton was hands down one of the best acting performances of the last half century.

    You could write a book containing nothing but awful scenes from Batman & Robin including, but not limited to:

    "Hi Freeze, I'm Batman"
    "OK everybody, Chill!"
    "Take two of these and call me in the morning
    ."

    Ugh....

    Also on my list:

    * - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: Harrison Ford survives a nuclear detonation in a lead-lined 'fridge.

    * - The X-Files: Mulder and Scully go from trapped, alone, in Antarctica with no working method of transportation back to the FBI HQ in Washington with no explanation given as to how they got there.

    * - Mission Impossible 2: The last "fight" between Tom Cruise and whoever the hell the bad guy was in that one.

    * - Star Trek V: They go to a planet and meet God -- who is promptly blown up by a Klingon photon torpedo. William Shatner clearly disliked going to Sunday school.

    * - XXX: Vin Diesel informing the audience that his proficiency with guns came from playing a lot of "first person shooter video games when he had a broken leg." Yup. That's my generation they're appealing to right there.

    If work is boring tomorrow, expect an update to this list, because I've seen a lot of really bad movies...
    That style of bad lines was accurately foreshawdowed in the Simpsons a few years before Batman and Robin was released when McBain (Ahhnud) pops out of an ice statue and says...."ice to see you".

    Independence Day.

    Specifically...

    The Fresh Prince and The Fly take off in an alien spacecraft that hasn't flown in 50 years designed for telepathic beings with 8 foot long arms. the cockpit is re-designed in about 20 minutes, and after 30 seconds, The Fresh Prince flies to the mother ship, fires a nuclear missile, then out flies the entire TELEPATHIC alien armada. Oh, and this after The Fly uploads a virus with his Mac notebook. (ok, that part is believable as I feel Macs were created by aliens).

    wretch.

    Battlefield Earth - where do I begin?

    I think my favorite part is when the Man-Animals (or Rat Brains according to Travolta's character Terl) find an abandoned underground Air Force Base built into the side of a mountain. The base is 1000 years old, and yet the lights turn on with a flick of the switch. Then, they find a large collection of Harrier Jets fueled up and ready to go after 1000 years of neglect, and they learn to fly the Jets by turning on an overhead projector that happens to have instructions sitting on it. So, of course they outfly the Aliens with superior technology. Oh, and by the way, the Man-Animals, lead by the inimitable Barry Pepper, were fighting each other with sticks a week earlier. Now I'm not an expert on the Air Force procedures, but I'm going to guess that the Harrier with its unique capabilities is a VERY difficult plane to fly for trained experts, let alone people one step away from cave men.

    I love that movie....

    My Mac can run Windows. My PC can't run Mac OS. Which one's more compatible?

    My PC can run MacOS, and I don't need another OS to run 80% of available software :

    Most Rocky movies where Rocky regularly gets hit by haymakers that would drop a Clydesdale. His face turns to hamburger but is otherwise unfazed.

    But I always thought the proper technique in boxing is to use your own chin to block the opponent's punches!
