Pathfinder was actually a decent movie.  I thought so at least.

I tried watching it once. I got about a third of the way through before I got too bored of it.

I thought Dungeons and Dragons was a fairly decent representation of the game as well.  Nothing to win academy awards over, but not a horrible movie.  The sequal sucked more balls then a drunk DUmmie though.

Heh, I just picked ones out of random (mostly). I would have included Manos: The Hands of Fate as well, but it had an 8% rating.

Well, it does give Congress something to shoot for anyway.

As awful as D&D was, and it was pretty bad, I did enjoy watching Jeremy Irons chew the scenery.

The main characters sort of reminded me of watered down versions Star Trek:TOS cast.  But it's been a long time since I watched it, I just kind of remember an elf or something could have been plugged into the Star Trek universe as a Vulcan.

Awful, awful refuse but better than the remake of Planet of the Apes and Final Fantasy: The Idiocy Within, which I got all of them from Netflix about the same time.
