Some people want to be able to watch a movie "for the first time" all over again. Others want to forget a rubbish one. If you could remove just one movie from your memory, which would it be?

For good: 2001: A Space Odyssey. So I could be wowed again by it.

For bad: Dude, Where's My Car

Johnny Got His Gun (1971).

I could not finish this disturbing movie, and I would be happy to forget it.

Cloud Atlas

Shit was way too intense for the age I saw it at

Everything is illuminated. I'd love to watch it again.

Battlefield Earth.

Battle Royale 2 or Waiting 2.

Both of them were sequels to movies I loved that nearly ruined the first one retroactively. Usually I just chock it up to bad movie, but those two were beyond painful to watch.

For good: The Usual Suspects

For bad: Swept Away (2002 directed by Guy Ritchie)
