Agree on Blair Witch style, unwatchable.

Disagree on Marathon Man, awesome movie. "Is it safe?" Other movie types I will no longer watch a 2nd (or possibly even a 1st) time: Any and all Marvell, etc. Superhero movies, I'm sick as a dawg of those stupid azz plotless fantasies. Also, Barbie. I'm also bracing for a series of bad movies involving AI. It's fairly obvious this term is overused and completely misunderstood by the general public and even most financial talking heads. In general, Hollywood's output is sucking pretty hard these days.

Seeing Roswell's post below, what are movies you'll never watch a 2nd time?

In a major role then lol**
jdkhokie • 09/11/23 12:50 PM ET
I saw the Exorcist as an early teen and it had a profound effect on me.
Guy LeDouche • 09/11/23 11:14 AM ET
Seven Pounds**
pburg_hokie • 09/11/23 11:11 AM ET
Schindler's List--although I did watch it twice...
vthhhi • 09/11/23 10:29 AM ET
Star wars episode 7 8 and 9**
HokieJamie • 09/11/23 10:00 AM ET
At the time, 7 was pretty good...
hokiehunter07 • 09/11/23 10:52 AM ET
I don't think I've ever seen 9. To me, 1, 2, 3, 7, and 8 were so bad
Tafkam Hokie • 09/11/23 10:27 AM ET
Prequels as well**
HokieDan95 • 09/11/23 10:06 AM ET
Deer Hunter = too depressing**
HokieDan95 • 09/11/23 09:55 AM ET
I love that movie
MrBayAreaHokie • 09/11/23 11:48 AM ET
LOL, just started rewatching it last night on Netflix
Vippie1 • 09/11/23 10:20 AM ET
Running into De Niro's character right in the middle
HokieDan95 • 09/11/23 10:27 AM ET
yeah
Vippie1 • 09/11/23 11:24 AM ET
Whereas Joker running into Cowboy in FMJ seemed legit to me**
HokieDan95 • 09/12/23 07:58 AM ET
Hudson Hawk made me swear off Bruce Willis movies for a few years.
RoswellGAHokie • 09/11/23 09:42 AM ET
That movie seems to hit some extremes in who likes it. I DID like it,
Late 80s Hokie • 09/11/23 03:33 PM ET
LOL! I can't believe you were duped into going to any of that nonsense.
Coach McGuirk • 09/11/23 10:21 AM ET
Watching BOMC, I had to laugh at the double standard. When a man cheats on
RoswellGAHokie • 09/11/23 10:28 AM ET
The Matrix. It was our movie for apheresis once. Couldn't get into it.
TomTurkey • 09/11/23 09:39 AM ET
Schindler's List (great but tough to watch) and Star Wars w/ Jar-Jar Binks**
Tuckahokie • 09/11/23 09:38 AM ET
Million Dollar Baby, great movie, such a downer. Leaving Las Vegas to see
RhinoVT • 09/11/23 09:30 AM ET
MDB - good call. A very depressing movie.**
