I came --><-- this close to starting a similar thread yesterday.
My modified proposition was 'what films continue to irritate you with their tropes and crappiness, or whatever other aspect irritates you, over time. The so called Enduring Irritants. This isn't a film you see, say 'that's crappy,' and never think about again, or even ones that are demonstrably bad and every one agrees it's bad. I'm talking films that have some degree of acclaim where every time it comes up, you get a little rise of acid in your stomach, and your thoughts turn dark and stormy. The ones that have caused you to devote mental effort to develop a Adam Corolla-esque angry rant just for them in case someone asks your opinion.
The idea came from The Ultimate Trailer Show replaying the trailer for Days of Thunder. Curse Tony Scott for ever and ever for making Bobby D wax poetic about custom crafting the perfect race car, obsessing over every detail, and Gay Thetan show up at the next race with a Chevy Lumina.
So its, for me;
Days of Thunder
Twister
Bonfire of the Vanities.
