As far as my least favorite movies, well, I already mentioned Superman 4, and it seems General Woundwort and I both hate Highlander 2. Another movie I don't ever watch is Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Once was too much for that movie. Don't remember ever seeing Eraserhead, so I'll reserve judgement on that movie until I see it.

Highlander II was the only movie I have walked out of and demanded my money back for. (I came pretty darn close with Aliens IV, however...)

As for AOTKT, you're being too harsh. "Tomatoes" was supposed to be a bad movie - it's like "Plan 9", you know from square one what you're going to get (campy nonsense), and that's its entertainment value. Mind you, I was not so entertained by AOTKT that I'd see it again - but I'd hardly call it so bad as to be worth avoiding.

Unlike Eraserhead. Avoid it at ALL COSTS. Trust me, those are 90 minutes of my life I'd give my left arm to have back...

Well, there were a couple of good scenes from AOTKT that I still get a chukle from (especially the guy in the tomatoe suit asking for ketchup). I happened to catch it on late night tv one time, so maybe some stuff got edited out. Maybe I'll watch it again if it ever comes on, but I don't think I'll be buying the dvd that came out recently.

As far as Highlander, maybe you can answer my question about the 4th movie. I know they were trying to bridge the movies and the series, but the end result has left me confused. How can Duncan be The One, when Connor was already The One some 15 years before? Which also made no sense for the 3rd movie, as how could Connor get his powers when there were 3 frozen immortals still waiting to be killed? They should have let the original creator come back to write the sequels. At least I think we would have some continuity then.
