@@cheesezee86 The internet allows the few fans of crap like Death to Smoochy to gather online and make it seem like flops are more beloved than they are, leading to "revisionist" history or something.
Yeah, "Men in Black II" was very disappointing. "Men in Black III" (which came out much, MUCH later in 2012) was surprisingly awesome, though! I saw it in RealD-3D with my dad and we both loved it.
2:42 I find it interesting that Roger called There's Something About Mary a masterpiece when he gave it 3/4 stars. That means that it was good, but not great.
Whatever you do, DON'T rely on RT. They SUCK!! It's amazing how many fake accounts exist to give a really bad movie a positive score. IMDb is no better, either.
Here are my choices for the worst movies of 2002. 10). Death To Smoochy - Big Star in a bad movie - Robin Williams 9). I spy - 1st of 2 bad movies by Eddie Murphy 8). Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever - Big Star in a bad movie - Antonio Banderas 7). The Master of Disguise - bad movie by former SNL star - Dana Carvey 6). FeardotCom - Not so thrilled Thriller 5). Rollerball - Distrarous Remake 4). Juwanna Mann - They are a drag 3). The Adventures of Pluto Nash - 2nd of 2 bad movies by Eddie Murphy 2). Swept Away - Bad Career Move - Madonna The worst movie of 2002. 1). Home Alone 4: Taking back the house - worst movie sequel
I gotta disagree with both I spy and death to smoochy being on this list. Both Eddie Murphy and Robin Williams are in top form here. Two of the funniest performances I’ve ever seen!
How in God's name could anybody like that absolute mockery of the classic film, which was directed by Frank Capra, started the magnificent Jean Arthur and one of Hollywood's greatest non-actors, Gary Cooper? The minute the first frame of that absolute garbage was displayed in theaters, Frank Capra, Jean Arthur and Gary Cooper also three started spinning non-stop in their graves.
It is truly amazing that year after year a river of absolute dogshit movies is made. Every movie that they brought up was at least pretty bad, and most were downright awful.
I did like “Men in Black II” okay, though it wasn’t anywhere as good as the first and getting Agent K back seemed a bit contrived. As for “Scooby-Doo,” I thought that film was appalling. I watched it on Nickelodeon and was disgusted by the unnecessary burping/farting scene, alienated by how the main characters acted nothing like in the original material and perturbed when it turned out Scrappy-Doo was the villain.
My god, with the beginning of 00s the film industry went worse and worse and worse till it have completely rotten. I think how tough would have been Siskel with those garbage movies
There are bad movies in every generation, the one we live in is no exception, nor is the early 2000’s. I’ve heard 2005 is typically regarded as the worst year in film of the 2000’s, and one of the worst years in film that isn’t connected to some historical event. In particular I recall a Filmstack video mentioning that no films from that year appear in the letterbox 250. As for the films in this video, hadn’t heard of any of them but they just about all sound awful. As for 2002, Roger Ebert in an interview once said that he thought 2002 was overall a pretty good year for film after a couple slow years before it. Not saying 02 is a great year myself, but one thing I will say for it: It feels like studios released more movies that were “mid-budget”, and would probably be season long shows on streaming services now.
The original Swept Away had a ridiculous elongated title, "Swept Away... by an Unusual Destiny in the Blue Sea of August." Whatever. But it did inspire me to retitle Madonna's version, "Swept Away in the Power of the Station When Your Brain Doesn't Work." Give us strength! The time on the boat was extended unnecesarily in the remake, so another reviewer asked sarcastically "What do they do with the extra time on the boat?" I found myself thinking of the Sixth Doctor's answer to a similar question, "Argue, mainly!" Pretty accurate, IMO!
@@daytripperhdI don’t understand, what’s wrong with “special effects?” Do you think it’s supposed to be “special affects?” Because it’s not. I don’t understand your comment at all.
“My stepdad isn’t mean, he’s just adjusting” still makes me laugh. Death to Smoochy might become an (almost) cult classic. Juwanna Mann predicted the future.

I have a soft spot for Snow Dogs, that was a childhood favorite of mine. So was Stuart Little 2. And MIB 2, it's not the original but it's fun and funny thanks to frank the pug.

Roger even said it was the best in the trilogy.

I remember my dad renting this from Blockbuster and sort of remembered they actually showed the villain dying from his poison at the end
I revisit these from time to time whenever I drink. Mainly just to live in the world of 2002 for twenty minutes.

Calling Death to Smoochy the worst movie of the year is fucking insane. It's a brilliant dark comedy.

I am SHOCKED “Master of Disguise” wasn’t on this list. That had got to be one of the most unfunniest films I had ever seen.
Are you telling me I'm not Turtley enough for the Turtle Club???
They FORGOT about it.
I was 10 years old when that movie came out and I thought it was crap then.
Roger Ebert was very much the entertainer, only he was way better than most HWood ones.
Enough is by far one of the worst movies I've ever seen, I watched it for free on a cable tv movie channel and I still felt ripped off.
The ad you briefly see at 16:38 is for Healthy Choice grilled items in case anyone is wondering
I’ve been binging these “worst of” shows in no particular order and I’ve yet to watch one without a Robin Williams flick 😢
Death to smoochy is a comedic masterpiece ❤
No it's not.
Or the worst movie of 2002 either or 😐
I'm in the masterpiece camp, although the characters are all grating in their own special way (which is kind of the point of it)
It's a piece of crap.
Did they do categories for the worst of 2003?
Bad movies have gotten worse over the years. A bad movie from 2002 plays like a creative masterpiece in 2023
So true. At least those movies don't feel completely souless
I dunno. Did you see Ecks vs. Sever?
absolutely gospel
Get a real opinion
I don't know man, Adam Sandler's films certainly don't fit that criteria
I love the way they laugh at each others jokes.
I worked in a movie theater in 2002 it was fun the movies were kind of bad though
Was Juanaman predicting the future?

I always hated the sweetest thing. Its a cult classic and ill never get why.
Bleh, I wouldn’t copy any of these movies.
These must have been very forgettable movies because I remember so few of them compared to the 90s "worst of" episodes.
They left out Star Wars Episode II.
Thank goodness they did. I remember they disagreed on Attack of the Clones, Roeper liked it and Roger didn’t and I really don’t think it’s that bad.
It was much better than III

I think it is safer to say Ebert and Roeper both thought she was very good looking and gave her a pass..lol

They really can't make drag sports movies nowadays like Juwanna Mann since it too closely resembles real life in today's wacky world.
