Subtitle: Thirty movies I have not seen.
Even though I believe the shooting was an accident, I believe Alec Baldwin deserved to be convicted. It came out that he was practicing a quickdraw in a scene that didn't require it, the scene didn't even require him to draw the gun.
Am I the only one that wants Mojo to just to top 10 only. Most of these top 30 are a conglomeration of previous videos. Please just do new top tens.

All Crispin Glover asked for was equal pay to Tom Wilson and Lea Thompson. Why shouldn't he get that? It's not like he was asking for Michael J Fox money.
This should have been called ‘20 lows (mostly) Americans will stoop to in order to gain a quick buck!’

The condition was Hemophilia. A genetic disorder where blood wounds won't clot.
40 million in 2021 excluded what every the current inflation rate would of added onto it back then. Today after inflatation scarlet Joe Hanson would have gotten paid and more then an additional 6.60 million our an additional 16.5 percent so she would have walked away with more 46.60 million dollars that was just the change inflation for just the last 3 years. Since scarlet had played the character since 2010 first showing up inron man 2 as support character. I agree with what a lot of the fanbase thinks. I think Disney should have tried harder if possible to have gotten black widow made and released foot. Though I also would have preferred to change the order would have chronological had black panther take place before Thor 3 and instead marvel did it the other way around chronological in the storey and chronological in end game. If you saw the end credits scene that happened in ragnorok you could possibly understand why I think panther should have come first.
The only movies on the list that I watched are only 'Rocky', 'Back to the Future' and 'Die Hard 2'.
#9, Frozen: His name is Jaime, not James.
My brain froze at her pronunciation of Episcopal…
mayor of Batman sues
what is next is the governor of Wakanda feeling froggy
Episcopal is not pronounced "eppy scopal", its pronounced "eh pih scoh pahl"
INITIALLY defended the nude scene in 2018? Dude, she had been defending it since the movie first came out in 1968! You make it sound like she only defended it once and then changed her mind but she defended that nude scene for over 50 fucking years! You guys need to stop saying things in ways that mislead us watchMojo. That’s barely better than lying.
Interesting pronunciation of Episcopal. You remind me of that guy from “Top 5’s” trying to say Dublin.
That's Hedley
5:37 EXTREMELY happy that the case against Alec Baldwin was dismissed. This scenario is THE EXACT SAME SCENARIO as Brandon Lee's unfortunate death during the shooting of the movie The Crow. Both were unfortunate accidents.
4$?!?!?! HUGE LAWSUIT!!!111oneoneone
i dont understand how a director was allowed to film underage actors nude for a movie
Just so folks know, dismissing a case "with prejudice" means the plaintiffs cannot bring the case to court again. Our landlord tried to do this with our escrow, when we finally settled it. Like, hell no, guys, we're not signing away our rights if you flunk your end of the settlement
Your honor, my client is suing the movie directors & studio because a minor character in their movie has the same hair style as my client, and they never got my client's permission to use it.
5:55 I watched the original clip and I swear he was saying, You DON'T tell me what to do. It also matches his head movement of no. This is when he was first questioned by the police.
Natural Born Killers is one of my favorite movies of all time. At no point did i think it was a guide on how to live my life. What a useless lawsuit… unless you're a Lawyer that is.
Batman: hope he stretched before that fucking STRETCH.
Ridiculous.
You had to call American Democracy flawed, then and now. Sad.
17:45 I guess they'll be mad at Baby geniuses because of that giant baby animatronic. Or any other show that has or depicts a cartoon baby
I never miss an opportunity to declare how trash John Landis is. Disgusting person. The details of his attempt to get out of trouble are shameful.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, a movie about classic Victorian-era characters teaming up to fight an evil villain. Allan Moore, who wrote the comic book on which it was very loosely based, hated absolutely everything about the adaptation, starting before it even began production. (Alla Moore famously, automatically hates anybody else's take on his work, no matter what.) Then the writers of another script, called Cast of Characters, sued for plagiarism, claiming LXG was a rip-off. This despite the fact that CoC centered around a completely different concept and featured a completely different, you know, cast of characters. Moore was put in the difficult position of having to testify in court on behalf of the producers of a movie he'd never wanted made, stating that he'd written the comic book long before the CoC script existed, and he'd never even heard of CoC or its authors till the lawsuit came up.
Back to the Future. As wild as it sounds, there’s a bizarre story behind it. Apparently, some writer once claimed that the concept was 'borrowed' from his unpublished manuscript and ended up suing Universal Studios and Robert Zemeckis for not giving him credit. The case, of course, became a bit of a Hollywood legend!
