this is a thread dedicated to fairly famous films you can't be bothered to watch...for various reasons
these are the ones i can think of at the moment, i'm sure there are more:
Hotel Rwanda: as i've explained in another thread, the reason i will probably never see this film is because of the african accents with which the actors act, to me, it seems very annoying, i'm sure the actual people to whom this film is referring to didn't speak in english, so why not just have them play in regular english ( since rwandan is obviously out of the question )?

The aviator: reason number one for not seeing this one: i simply cannot identify di caprio with howard huges, reason number two: Cate Blanchett as Katharine Hepburn, i saw a trailer and her performance is borderline annoying

Ray: i'm not a big fan of biopics, especially when it comes to really famous people who have died recently, no matter how much their lives are actually interesting

Alexanader : it just got really mixed or bad reviews and i can't be bothered to sit through 3 hours of averageness....

do you have any?
