Why why why did we think it would be a good idea to watch the Cutting Edge sequel? Whyyyyy?

THE PAIN OH GOD THE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE PAIN. IT HURTS US PRECIOUS.

I was going to post about it but forgot. It was *SO* bad. I almost didn't make it all the way through. Bad bad bad bad bad. I love the original.

What was that!?

I liked the boy.

But Colton Shore as Doug? Stepfanie Cramer as Kate? What crack were the casting directors smoking? The daughter, didn't grab me and the whole blonde bitch trying to keep her hooks in the idiot guy -- it was just SAD.

The only thing that scored the movie any points was the one 'toepick'.

I don't know why I watched it either.

Because I am a masochist, I watched it all of the way through. It's not even in the same league as the first one. The thing that bugged me the most was the lighting for the rinks. Amateur competitions are not held in the dark!

Oh God. Those are two hours of your life you'll never have back!!

I saw a review in Entertainment Weekly of it, that was knocking all of the flaws (such as the ages being unrealistic, etc), stating what a bad idea the movie was, but then still giving it like 3 stars or something positive. Made no sense. I think they were trying to say that if you ignore everything that's wrong with it, its not that bad, but your post and comments seem to prove otherwise.

*shudders at the thought of the movie*

Like a good friend, I offer you the toepick to gouge your eyes out. :) You almost make me want to see the sequel just to mst it all the way through.

Go back and watch the pretty skating of Cutting Edge. *waves hand* There is no sequel.

I blame Sasha Cohen.

C my roomie is a fellow ice queen and knew all those little details that Ice skaters would know. We made merciless fun of it while multitasking stuff on our laptops, and it turned into a useable amusing experience. It would be impossible to watch straight and enjoy though. Sorry you had to experience that ;)

Sweetie, it was a movie that you love and treasure, and the sequel was a made-for-basic-cable jaunt starring no one you'd ever heard of. There was no good to be had there.

On the bright side, they released a new DVD of the original film last month. Go get that instead. :-)

okay, I know you're gonna have a conniption fit, but I've never seen the original.
I have the new one set up to TiVo sometime this week, because, well, Christy Carlson Romano goodness?

and apparently, I'm going to be sorry to watch it, but hey - I can watch it only half, with massive baby distraction. Will that make it better?

Good Christ, I didn't know they'd made a sequel! That's gotta be the fourth sign of the apocalypse. Invest in duct tape and bottled water now.

Because we're so starved for figure skating movies we'll watch ANYTHING?

But yeah, this one kinda sucked. Big-time. "OMG, side-by-side triples in pairs? The danger! The innovation!" A 'big move' more implausible than the Pamchenko. And as my brother pointed out, a daughter who was apparently conceived about ten years before Doug and Kate even met.

you know.. there is something worse than a sequel.. the direct-to-cable sequel.
