1. The Sound of Music - aside from the fact that I generally dislike musicals (West Side Story being the ONE exception), I can't stand Julie Andrews' hairdo. It's so ugly I simply can't bear to look at it. The whole thing is idiotic anyway.

2. The Silence of the Lambs - fervently wish I could unsee it. Totally YUK.

3. Rocky - Sylvester Stallone - ick, ick, ick.

4. Braveheart - oh please! Spare me Mel Gibson and his self-serving delusions of heroism and obsession with sadism.

5. Dances With Wolves - well, thank goodness the poor Indians had a heroic white man to stand up for them. Barf.

I've only named movies I've actually seen. There are definitely dozens more movies which have been wildly poplular that I've never had the slightest inclination to bother with.
