5. “Who Let the Dogs Out?” by Baha Men This song is too obnoxious to put in movies, yet we do it anyway. Movie makers know better than to put Chumbawamba in their movies, but still make this mistake.

Jonah Hex: Movie Mutilation

Where to start with this movie? I should probably come off with the positive right away, but honestly Jonah Hex was so awful, it is hard to shed any positive light on it. Putting a positive spin on it might actually bring someone to see a film that should just be forgotten. If I were [...]
