Gor. So horrible. Books weren't that great, but the movie was absolute unwatchable by any standard shiz.

banned.



You read the books and actually liked that movie?!



The original was not good (lol @ the voiceboxes that kill). I loved Stilgar's line "MMMMMMMMMM. Shaiiiii halooood" and it has Patrick Stewert as Gurney, that's pretty hilarious. And the eyebrows on the Mentants! OMG epic.


Actually, I think as a B movie. There is a place in my heart for it.


The Mini-Series was a lot better.


And it was a joke

There's some delight in ale and wine,
And some in girls with ankles fine,
But my delight, yes, always mine,
Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

The Sci-Fi channel did a mini-series remake of Dune. It was pretty good.

Eragon was absolutely horrid. But the book wasn't that great either so its really hard to condemn them there.....

I win this thread. You people don't know what you are talking about. I have seen all of those movies, none are as bad as the one I identified. Stream it on netflix, you won't get through 5 minutes.

On a scale of 1 - 10 the first few Gor books were at best a 4 and get worse further into the series. The movie was a 0.

The return of the king as a book is a 10 and the movie at best is a 4.

You do the math.
