'Twilight' Saga Voted Worst Movie of All Time
by Shannon Keirnan
“Twilight” fans will not be pleased by this news.
The website Rifftracks, run by those responsible for the hilarity that is “Mystery Science Theater 3000,” has polled its members, and constructed its list of candidates for Worst Movies of All Time.
And guess who takes the top spot?
Alas, it’s the “Twilight” saga… which Rifftracks tries to break down for audiences.
"Mumble mumble mumble moon eyes. Mumble mumble mumble mumble lay in a field. Mumble mumble mumble perv on a baby. Mumble."
Specifically, "The Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn Part 2" was voted the worst film of 2012…. With "Battleship" and "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance" following close behind.
"Breaking Dawn Part 2" still grossed almost $800 million worldwide, so maybe word just didn’t get out?
Who else was on the list?
From the bottom: “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” “Son of the Mask,” “Jack and Jill,” “Battlefield Earth,” “Super Mario Bros.,” “The Last Airbender,” “Spiderman 3,” “Catwoman,” and the stinker “Batman and Robin.”
Clearly voters weren’t familiar with awesomely bad hits like “Troll 2.”
Or heck, the terrifically horrible, “I Know Who Killed Me.”
We all have our opinion for best worst movie… What do you think of the list? Which of your favorite bad movies would you like to see edge out the competition?
Rifftracks also offers commentary on the “Twilight” saga flicks… all but the last in the series, which will no doubt get the same treatment soon. You can purchase the full flick, or enjoy a four-minute preview.
