The real question is 'From Justin to Kelly' or 'Glitter'?


I laugh my freakin' a$$ of every time I watch either of 'em but I think "FJ2K" just barely beats "Glitter" for suckola hi-larity content.

Anyone else care to weigh in on this?

This is a very hard decision to make as they're two completely different styles.

FJTK has terrible acting and the only reason it was made was to capitalise on the success of American Idol. For that reason, if you accept the movie as being cheese, see the song and dance numbers as being tacked on and can accept the idea of Justin being a playa then it can be fun.

Glitter however is in a league all to itself. This was a totally unreal vanity project coming from a woman who's only claim to fame is her 5 octave voice and chest. Glitter is just bad from start to finish. Then when it tanked at the box office, the blame fell on 9/11 instead of the fact that it just plain sucked.

So I'd give FJTK higher marks in terms of bad movie fun, but Glitter wins in terms of just being bad.

Ooo... That's tough! I mean, From Justin to Kelly gets me in a fetal position every time with that last musical number, but I had to pause Glitter because it was giving me heartburn...

I'd say that From Justin to Kelly is marginally more amusingly awful than Glitter. Glitter's just AWFUL.

From Justin to Kelly is even worst.

There's a reason why Justin Guarini's career died after this movie. That moron deserved it though.

I liked Glitter better. Glitter at least had a few songs that I actually liked and I bought the soundtrack. It has a good soundtrack. The movie just sucked. This movie had a bad soundtrack and the movie sucked.
