Wasn't interested, but saw it anyway.

Why wasn't I interested: Most of the people who already seen the movie were girls and I really had no interest in seeing it at all which isn't surprising.

Why I saw it: The summer program I went to would usually show movies and unfortunately this was the movie choice.

Do I regret seeing it: Well I was only 9, so no. For whatever reason I found this movie really funny at the time. This is one of those movies that I didn't even have to watch it again to know that it sucks since I recalled this movie and I just don't know what I saw in this movie. It's almost completely devoid of anything funny and this movie has Simple Plan as a musical cameo. Need I say more?

Igor (2008)
Why wasn't I interested: I was 11 when this came out and this felt like one of the movies I would've been dying to see if I was younger, but it just didn't look good.

Why I saw it: I was being dragged to see it and I decided to go into this one open-minded.

Do I regret seeing it: I actually liked it more than I was expecting it too. I don't think it's anything special now and I still feel this way on my second viewing, but I liked it when I saw it in theatres and to be fair there's quite a bit to like about this movie. It has some clever jokes, the characters are likeable to some extent and it does have a really good message. The story though could've been executed better and it feels a little rushed, but it's an OK movie for what it is.

The Dilemma (2011)
Why wasn't I interested: It looked painfully dull and unfunny, plus Kevin James starring in it and I was trying to avoid anything he's been in recently.

Why I saw it: It was the last day of gym class and we had a pizza party and this was the movie choice.

Do I regret seeing it: Pretty much. It's really not funny and I really only remember laughing once in this entire movie. That's not to say there weren't any other jokes that I found to be at least OK, but I was just so bored out of my mind and while some people find this movie to be depressing, I just couldn't care about what was going on. So it's a terrible movie, but it's too forgettable to be the worst of the worst.

Piranha 3D (2010)
Why wasn't I interested: I can't remember exactly why I didn't want to see this, but I guess it was because I just wasn't interested in these types of movies when I added it to the list.

Why I saw it: My taste in movies had changed since then and I was interested in seeing it because it looked like a fun movie.

Do I regret seeing it: Hell no! It was a very fun movie that was just as fun as I expected.

Piranha 3DD (2012)
Why wasn't I interested: Same reasons as the first movie and because of how stupid the title is.

Why I saw it: Despite the bad reviews it got, I still saw it out of curiosity.

Do I regret seeing it: Yes. It promises to have more gore and tits than the first movie and while it does have more nudity, it is not even close to being as gory as the first one. That's not why it sucks though. It has terrible humor, awful cameos and abysmal writing. This could be a 1/10 in my book, but I did get some enjoyment out of this movie. It's still a terrible movie though.

Why wasn't I interested: Because it's one of those movies that you can tell how awful it will be by looking at the damn poster.

Why I saw it: It was the movie choice for drama class and I didn't have much of a choice.

Do I regret seeing it: I knew I would regret seeing it when I found out I would be seeing it. It is just a comedy that uses cheap jokes to make kids laugh. Awful slapstick, skunks spraying Brendan Fraser and toilet humor. I really felt bad for Brendan Fraser throughout the entire movie for seeing him get tortured by those bastard animals. What makes this worse is that it's a movie about saving the environment. If you love the environment then do not watch this movie because you will be rooting for Brendan Fraser and you will just want to kill the animals in the movie and wear their skins. It has an environmental message that is unsubtle and in your face because the people behind this movie just thinks kids are idiots.

Why wasn't I interested: Because it is one of Adam Sandler's stupid, unoriginal, same formula movies that he always does.

Why I saw it: It was someone's birthday and this was the movie he wanted to watch.

Do I regret seeing it: You have no idea! This movie was so bad that I didn't even add it to my Watched in 2013 list. Why? Because no effort was put into that movie, so I didn't take the time to put it on my list. It's that bad! Now I'm probably going to watch the first Grown Ups movie sometime. Ugh.

Why wasn't I interested: Because I was trying to avoid a lot of things Nicolas Cage was in back then.

Why I saw it: I had seen more of Nicolas Cage's movies since then and most of them have been good and I thought that this movie would be fun.

Do I regret seeing it: Nah. It's nothing essential, but it's entertaining.

Why wasn't I interested: I thought the trailers for it looked painfully obvious and unfunny.

Why I saw it: It was featured on the Netflix front page and decided to give in to see what the fuss was about.

Do I regret seeing it: Well, it turned out to be better than I thought it would be. There were a few jokes that missed, but most of it was surprisingly funny.

Spy
Why wasn't I interested: The trailers didn't look funny and I'm not a fan of Paul Feig or Melissa McCarthy. All of these things factored in me not wanting to see it.

Why I saw it: I heard my grandpa praise this movie and my dad saying that it wasn't as bad as he thought it would be and since it was on Netflix I decided to give it a chance.

Do I regret seeing it: Not at all. It was a really funny movie with Jason Statham and Jude Law stealing the show, but Melissa McCarthy was also likeable here. I think this was a really good movie that was just poorly marketed as the trailers made it look like a typical Melissa McCarthy comedy.

Ghostbusters (2016)
Why wasn't I interested: My disinterest for this happened way before it became a Ghostbusters reboot with an all-female cast. It all started when Bill Murray dropped out of Ghostbusters 3 and the fact that they decided to keep going without him. From this point on I didn't care about what they were going to do with it, but when Harold Ramis passed away I knew it was all over from here. However, that didn't stop Paul Feig from rebooting it and trying to push an agenda instead of making a film that's actually good. The trailers they used for it were some of the worst comedy trailers I had ever seen.

Why I saw it: It turned out to be getting polarizing reactions and I wanted to see which side I was on. Plus I had a small feeling that those trailers were just bad trailers.

Do I regret seeing it: And that turned out to be a mistake because I hated this movie. The cast did the best they could with the shitty material they were given, but the most offensive thing about this movie is how boring it is. I was bored to death during the first half and while the second half was slightly better, it was still an unfunny movie and a pathetic excuse for a reboot.
