Is This The Most Boring Film Ever?

How better to promote a washing machine than a 60+ minute film of a wash cycle with a nice musical score? How about a poll on boring movies to get everyone talking. Well, that’s what Samsung has done.

Washing Machine — The Movie  is a film by Samsung with music by the legendary and Oscar-winning composer, Michael Nyman.  Samsung went all out even making a trailer for the movie and a ‘making of’ videos.

According to NME, Samsung also commissioned a poll on the most boring movies of all time.  They had movie critics compile a short list then 2000 adults in Britain voted.
Looking at the list I wonder if perhaps they mistook ‘boring’ to mean ‘bad’. What do you think?
