DA Baracus Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 The scene at the house of Quentin Tarantino's character in Pulp Fiction before Winston Wolf turns up. Awful. Tarantino should never, ever be on screen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted March 21, 2020 Author Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) All of about the first half an hour, until the annoying twat mate of the main good guy gets killed, in "Westworld". The Ewoks. Pretty much everything once they arrive in Vietnam in "Full Metal Jacket". Okay, not really "shite", but still a big letdown compared to the amazing first half.

YER SISTERS YER MAW Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 A current one springs to mind with the scene in The Irishman where DeNiro's character beats up the shopkeeper on the street. No amount of CGI can disguise the fact that it was a 76 year old man portraying a man in his early 30's during that assault. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You take that back about Westworld! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 The bit in Downfall where Adolf dies. It would have been far more heartwarming if he bounced back and repelled the Russians. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gets brilliant once the one bloke dies. Bryner in Westworld is more intimidating that Arnie in Terminator, IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightswoodBear Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 The entire sequence on the casino planet in The Last Jedi is as bad as anything in the Star Wars prequels. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The OP Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 The scene in The Godfather where Sonny batters Carlo but obviously misses his punches and kicks by a mile. And, on the Tarantino theme, the bit in Django Unchained where he turns up and starts speaking in a stupid Australian accent. Also any bit in Inglorious Basterds where the Basterds turn up (aside from the amazing basement bar scene) pales compared to the rest of the film. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 The scene at the house of Quentin Tarantino's character in Pulp Fiction before Winston Wolf turns up. Awful. Tarantino should never, ever be on screen. Yes. And, on the Tarantino theme, the bit in Django Unchained where he turns up and starts speaking in a stupid Australian accent. Absofuckinglutely yes. The Social Network: everything about the boat race is so out of place. A Ghost Story: the asshole in the dungarees essentially spelling everything out. The Terminator: rubber-face Arnie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moomintroll Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 That bit in Predator where Arnie takes about a minute to explain some very basic stuff that you would really assume that a Special Forces Unit would have a handle on already, especially as they are about to enter a firefight where time will be of the essence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Dusk till Dawn, he's not terrible. 19 hours ago, sjc said: The bit with Butch muff diving his Asian girlfriend was pretty shit and pointless too. She's not Asian, pretty sure she's French and white. Point still stands. On topic, Brad Pitt cameo in 12 years a slave. Also, the bit at the end of Return of the King when Merry and Pippin jump all over Frodo, when he's lying in bed. For the record, Frodo Baggins is an absolute c**t and the real hero of middle earth is Samwise Gamgee. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Frodo does is greet and flop, when it comes to the reason for their trip, shites it. A wee p***k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Fabienne (previously alluded to as the Asian) in Pulp Fiction is atrocious. Bruce Willis is basically shagging a woman with the mind of a ten year old. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awful. Tarantino should never, ever be on screen. It would be a far better film if they excised the whole Bruce Willis subplot. It slows the film down to a crawl, isn't very interesting and is just too contrived to be anything other than a let down in what is a good film aside from that section. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that much of it needs punted but they need his character for some vital parts of the film (mainly him killing Vincent and him saving Marcellus). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
