I did, too. Not sure why it gets so much hate.

Spike Lee wrote, produced, and directed 'Clockers.' Just like Orson Welles and Ed Wood.

I can't believe this is even an argument. Romero's original 'Dawn' is far superior. Sure; Snyder's remake had a brilliant, exciting opening but completely fizzled out after that, becoming yet another dumb horror/action movie.

Morbid P.R.?
Interesting how the arbitrary 'Dexter' association in this story happens to break news ONE WEEK before the Season 5 premiere.

@BoredandCynical: Agreed. 'Weeds' has always been a terrible, terrible show. Not really sure why it got all the praise it dd back when it first started airing.

The Seven Samurai…
…is easily one of the best films ever made.

@Scrawler:

How about the rampant McDonald's commercials throughout the classic Sinbad film "Houseguest"?

No… pretty sure that's genuine, intentional, paid product placement. It exaggerates it a bit for laughs - although not as successfully as a similar scene in 'Wayne's World', when Wayne and Garth blatantly endorse several products in a row.

'Little Nicky' is one of the worst films I've ever seen. The bar was already low for Sandler-films, yet 'Nicky' set it even lower. It was the point in my film-going life (near the end of college) when the booze wore off and realized that I hated Sandler movies (and I used to love his SNL skits, and 'Happy Gilmore'.)

Was Grindhouse even necessary?
Rodriguez and Tarantino already collaborated on 'From Dusk Til Dawn' which far exceeds the 'Grindhouse' double-feature because:
