One of the worst movies I still have a stub from:
i.e. Cabin Boy
That was agony to sit through. I couldn't even get up and leave, because I came with somebody else, and either they drove, and I'd have to get a bus home, or I drove, and they'd have to get a bus home.
So I did what I always do when I'm stuck in a movie theatre watching something awful: I count the edits.
Things have been selling so fast I don't even get a chance to post them here.
But here's the latest:
