Inside St. Malo's Cathedral... I liked this Stained Glass so I snapped a quick photo...

We're tackling the 2nd worst 100 Films of My Lifetime... part 1 can be seen here, part 2 here...

Without further ado (kinda busy this week with the whole "getting married" thing...) we launch directly into part 3...

>>Richie Rich

Anyone out there who is still a Macaulay Culkin fan after this one is downright masochistic...

--Chris Hicks, Deseret News

>>The Good Son

An unintentionally uproarious melodrama; a must-see for fans of the truly terrible...

--James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette

>>Aeon Flux

Theron plays Aeon as a reluctant cipher who yearns to get back to a real existence. By the end, you'll know the feeling...

--Owen Glieberman, Entertainment Weekly

>>The Cutting Edge: Going for the Gold

TVGuy: It's a sequel to the bland 90s film. I'd say more, but I'd like to limit the memories of watching this dreck limited to just putting the title in this list, if it's all the same to you...

>>Corky Romano

How can you describe a movie that fails so completely in every possible way, its mere existence leaves you flummoxed?

--Ether Alter, Film Journal International

>>The Master of Disguise

No one but a convict guilty of some truly heinous crime should have to sit through The Master of Disguise, an unbearably tedious and unfunny comedy.

--Jonathan Foreman, New York Post

A 75-minute sample of puerile rubbish that is listless, witless, and devoid of anything resembling humor.

--James Berardelli, Reel Views

I understand how hard it is for parents to find movies to take their kids to, but the thought of them or their children getting stuck at this stinker galls me. Summer vacation feels short enough as it is.

--Charles Taylor, Salon.com

A film about as funny as a seeping wound.

--Keith Phillips, The Onion

>>Feeling Minnesota

One bad screenwriting decision after another; it could be taught in film school as an example of what to avoid.

--Rob Gonsalves, efilmcritic.org

>>Rad

>>Howling 2: Stirba - Werewolf Bitch

TVGuy: It's also known as "Howling 2 - Your Sister is a Werewolf"... either way, garbage....

>>Shanghai Surprise

TVGuy: Madonna kinda needs her own "Worst 100" list, doesn't she???

>>Sideout

>>Virtuosity

Someone should tell Hollywood that the mass-killer genre is dead and that its virtual reality counterpart is already wheezing.

--Mike Clark, USA Today

>>Toys

TVGuy: I really really really HATE this film. I mean, really...

>>Even Cowgirls get the Blues

>>Medicine Man

>>Galaxy of Terror

>>Super Mario Brothers

Super Mario Bros. is about as playful and challenging as an unplugged pinball machine.

--Frank Chieng, Movie Eye

>>Street Fighter

>>Surf Ninjas

>>3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain

TVGuy: Jim Varney, Loni Anderson and Hulk Hogan. 'nuff said...

see ya tomorrow for Part 4...

Joel: That was the 1951 classic "Lost Continent". Interestingly enough, Exec. Producer Robert Lippert found that he could extend the length of his film by adding meaningless, poorly contrived and blocked walking sequences, or in the case of today's film, mind-numbingly excessive mountain-climbing scenes. He called the device "padding" and as you know, padding has become a staple of movies ever since...
