Pirates Of The Caribbean

A Disney film based on a theme park ride from Jerry "Pearl Harbour" Bruckheimer?

I mean come on, it sounded crap- "Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl". The title itself was like a mile long!

So lo and behold when I went and watched it and experienced one of the greatest movies I've ever seen. Johnny ****ing Depp! Zombie Pirates! Awesome action set pieces!

So there you go, I thought this movie would suck, it turned out great.

Wrong Turn

I was sure that was going to be another "omfgaguywithaknife" teen slasher, but it turned out to be quite scary.

That movie actually was pretty entertaining. It's one of those movies that if you see it on cinemax at 2 in the morning, you'll watch it.

Stealth.

I thought it would be just a short pointless action summer cash-in flick, but it ended up being a lot deeper than I thought, with a pretty engrossing plot. Even if the whole thing about the computer getting zapped by lightning then "learning" more or whatever was pretty lame.

It's the teenage girl AIM way of saying "heart" or "love", as in "I <3 NY" or whatever. It's kind of spread as a parody across the intraweb.

Cinderella Man. It was the best film of the year, but I wasn't really that pumped about it when it came out. A far better boxing movie than Million Dollar Baby, which I hated.

When I watched it I could seriously not stop laughing from it. It has become a joke between me and my friends on how bad it was

Collateral. I didn't really think much of Jamie Foxx at the time because he kept making such crappy movies. Upon completition of the film I was all :thumb: .

I wouldn't say it turned out "Great" but it went above my expectations...which weren't high to begin with do to my friend telling me that it was terrible.
