The Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy.

The killed the whole franchise for me.

I liked the Movie, and I've read the book, I like both. They are both as funny as hell!

But here we have one of the holy grails of movie crapola: DOA
The sun was raising up above the high
and dense entangled spider's web.  The dew
was dripping from the silky strings and down
through canopy to underbrush.  It splashed
the puddle making one more fountain spring.

I notice a trend were mostly bad video games turned into movies.

<_< I like them, but they have crappy werewolves and took out some of my favorite parts! No Death Day party makes Darth_D angry! Lol.

On an opposite note, I enjoy the Star Wars books based on the movies more than the movies, but still love the movies.. >_>

You have to admit that, being a Uwe Boll film, it's like shooting fish in a barrel when picking that as one of the worst movie adaptations ever.

Of course, it's no surprise that he's up for a lifetime achievement Razzie this year.

I took all his other adaptations into consideration, but if you take into account the actual content that exists in that game..........well, its pretty much a no-brainer.

Ouch.  Man that movie was painful (not that the book is a good read)

Would have been better if he played it like he plays Barney on "How I Met your Mother". ::)

The characer he plays on "How I Met Your Mother" is like he was in H&KgtWC.  That's how he got the part for HIMyM.

Today, I stayed home, sick in bed. I had been sleeping on my arms. I got up quickly to grab the phone. My numb left arm rocketed and punched me in the (now cut) lip, which threw me off balance, making me smash my (now bloody) nose off of the headboard. It was a telemarketer. FML
