  1. The Da Vinci Code
  2. Pirates Of The Caribean: Dead Man's Chest
  3. Brief Rant About Val Kilmer
    "If you put Val Kilmer in a room with lots of pine furniture, it's fair to say the pine furniture would act him off screen. It's not that he's a bad actor; it's that he's NOT an actor. There are films with Val Kilmer in them which don't completely suck, but they're the ones where Val's not in them very much"
  4. Proof (for his Gwenith Paltrow impression)
  5. Ice Age 2: The Meltdown ("symptomatic of the death of narrative cinema")
    I havn't been listening to them for very long, so I've never heard the Star Wars ones, or the orrigional POTC. I would love to hear his review of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre having heard his hatred of the prequal. Also didn't catch the Sex Lives Of The Potatoe Men.
    I really want some douch-bag to remake The Excorsist: I think Mark would probably have a stroke - either while watching it or while reviewing it.

I seem to recall he really liked Norbit, must have the blu ray in his collection.

Entourage inspired another classic rant:

I think his 'Pain and Gain' rant on today's show is right up there with the classic rants 'Like swimming in a sewer and not in a good way'

Little man because I've never heard so much hatred for a film before. Also his review of Transformers always makes me laugh.

Elizabethtown and Bride Wars are two classics.

His sex and the city 2 review is a wonderful 15 minutes of listening. Must have listened to it ten times by now. Loads of quotes are top notch.
..just a bunch of imperialist american pigdogs of the highest order
..boils down all of women's lib into the right to by expensive shoes
.if we were in a SATC movie we would be the plebs, the help
.we are supposed to feel sorry for these people, SORRY???.
it was just an repulsive orgy of dripping wealth that made me want to be sick
Best of all (on second viewing) the first ten words.
"I am not going to have a rant about this!!!!!!!!!!"

Both
Fred
and
Burlesque
's rants were brilliant. Too bad I don't have a video for the former

I think his
Fred
rant qualifies as one of the best, as he descended into screaming gibberish and Mayo ordered the technicians to disconnect his microphone I was in hysterics

The Transformers one was pretty spot-on as far as I'm concerned. Just watched the film for the second time and it's bad, I reckon. No amount of special effects could save it when the foundations of the film is one-dimentional, stereotypical crap.

Personally, I loved his defence of
Howard the Duck
, saying how people complained mainly about the fact you could tell it was a man in a duck suit therefore they were essentially saying "it doesn't look like a real interstellar duck!"

I was listening to the podcast today and he really gave ' Bride Wars' a good slagging off
I think that rant will go down as a classic I just hope there aren't ten films worse than that this year, I'd hate it if he quit

If* they ever remake The Exorcist, Simon Mayo should just hand over the entire three hours of his show to Mark.
I can see it now:
Exorcist Movie
Directed by Michael Bay from a screen play by the Wayan Brothers, staring Julian Sands, Val Kilmer and with Gwenith Paltrow as Regan (her head will be digitally added to a child's body la
Little Man
[Rated 12a] I just hope he doesn't read this or he might have a breakdown just thinking about it
