Only 205 more votes needed to add "The Undefeated" to the IMDB Bottom 100!
Sarah Palin's movie, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1961604/">The Undefeated, needs only 205 more votes to make the http://www.imdb.com/chart/bottom">Internet Movie Database List of the Bottom 100 Movies. In order to qualify, the movie needs an average ranking of less than 2.5 and a total of at least 1,500 votes from people registered on IMDB. Currently, it has 1,295 votes and a rating of 1.7.

We're almost there! Please vote if you have an account or the inclination to create one, and also help get this on the front page where others will see it. We can do this!

1. I would think that this list is for movies that are truly horrid examples of filmmaking
I'm not so sure voting a movie onto that list because of its political message is in the right spirit.

Of course, I haven't seen 'The Undefeated' and I don't plan to. But I highly doubt it's as bad a piece of filmmaking as 'Troll 2' or 'Baby Geniuses' I mean, I doubt it's good either. But voting it one of the worst of all time just because it's about Sarah Palin seems to me a disservice to film criticism. Doing so seems more a political statement than a statement about film.

Take 'Birth of a Nation,' for instance. The movie's message is terrible. It portrays blacks as lazy imbecile rapists and the KKK as a chivalrous organization. Yet at the same time it's also widely regarded as a masterpiece of filmmaking.
