Fair play, horses for courses and all that, but I was specifically thinking The Transporter when I posted that!
Worse than a shit sandwich with piss in it.
IMO, of course.
No worries, I guess it's a fine line
Personally I don't really like Chaos (aka War), his one with Jet Li, and I didn't really like The Bank Job.
And Transporter 2 isn't a good bad film, it's just rubbish
Can't really disagree with that...
But THE STATH was magnificent in it!

Yeah, Rambo (First Blood) doesn't deserve to be on any 'Shit Films' thread, but R3 ventures into 'crap-but-fun' territory.
The Beast Of War, (George Dzundza's best film, imo) did Afghanistan way better.
True - I think I only mentioned it because I had been expecting it to be a crap but fun film and it turned out to be much more than that...

Is your name a tribute to Red Dwarf - White Hole (the pool playing bit)?
I thought it was a reference to Kenny Vermouth...
Indeed, it is fair to say that X-Men 3 did not bust as many blocks as the first 2. Haven't seen Wolverine - maybe I won't bother now.
Loved Transformers.. sooooooo cheesy. Can't wait for the sequel.
Armageddon, Independence Day, War of the Words... all kinda crappy but enjoyable-silly-rainy-day-on-the-sofa-with-doritos-and-dip-fun.
I thought Transformers was ace tbh. Independence Day less so, and Armageddon was just silly. War of the Worlds was actually quite decent.

Ah come on!
You must have seen a few films that you know, in your heart of hearts, are badly acted, poorly produced, shit-scripted fluff ... but still enjoyed them?
Watch The Fast And The Furious or anything with Antonio Banderas in it!

Lair Of The White Worm - a Ken Russell joint, early woodwork by Hugh Grant, Amanda Donohoe in blue paint as an ancient serpentine god with a predilection for bathing with Boy Scouts and tribadism of a most delectably sapphic kind. Utterly awful film, but compelling all the same.
at it all

I've never seen it, because I know it's bollocks!
Worth a punt within the context of this thread you reckon, Badgers?

It doesn't have Amanda freaking Donohoe naked bar blue paint, I can tell you that much.
If your brain needs to be switched off and you can't think of anything else then it is worth seeing for reference and lols.
All I can remember is that I stayed up to watch it thinking it was going to be a conventional action adventure about a guy going to fight a giant white dragon in a cave, and it turned out to be rather more odd/sexual/arthousey than that....

A few more have come to mind:
Terminal Velocity, the one with Charlie Sheen as a skydiver caught up in implausible murder shenanigans
Passenger 57, in which airline security goon Wesley Snipes gets to utter his immortal McClane X line, "Bet on black!"
Scar City, a thoroughly minor action film and silly to boot but a gripping take on the Magnum Force cops-as-vigilantes schtick, with a Baldwin (Stephen) reuniting with Usual Suspects co-star Chazz Palmintieri, as well as CSI's Gary Dourdan and Tia Carrere all paying their bills in an efficient manner

Dude, this is Amanda Donohoe we're talking about. In a film directed by Ken Russell. A film about an ancient SNAKE GOD.

I rented that out a few months ago. for post apocolyptic action drivel, you could do a lot worse.
Also, split second with Rutger Hauer http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105459/

I hummus, therefore I am ...
"Goodbye Mr. Chips" (the proper, 1930s Robert Donat version) is far from high art but still left me with a moist eye on the third watching.
And I will always have a soft spot for "The Time Machine".
