Sorry but I still care too!

The books are far more informative and entertaining than reading banal posts on boards like these, not to mention IMDB. They're not just lists -- they're essays that are often quite funny with a lot of production detail and also comments from other critics of the day. Most of the time they aren't just razzing Z-grade stuff but major star/studio films (many long forgotten) that are quite fun to go back and look at. Hard for anyone to believe but THE OMEN actually got slammed by critics when it first opened, and that too is interesting to see (by today's standards the movie is hailed as a Welles-like masterpiece).

One of their follow up books, HOLLYWOOD HALL OF SHAME, has several fascinating, long-form (and well-researched) pieces on disasters like INCHON. That's the kind of thing you'll never find on the net, and IMO it's well worth reading for any hardcore movie buff.

Either way, I won't piss all over the OP -- I own all the books and enjoy going back to them, and appreciate the list!
