Worst Movie(s) you have seen?
 
What are some of the worst movie, or what is your worst movie, you have ever seen?

shuriken 01-15-2014 02:11 PM

Freddy got fingered is probably the worst movie I've ever seen.
Steel is pretty Terrible. Judd Nelson was the best thing in that movie.
I think its funny that the common denominator is Shaq.
Meet the Spartans had no redeemable qualities whatsoever, ( except maybe the pit of death scene, I remember chuckling)
A lot of those parody movies that don't know the meaning of parody (Date movie, Superhero movie, epic movie, Scary Movie after the second one ect)
Meet Dave also sucked. HARD

Sucker Punch is the only one I can think of off the top of my head. How I managed to sit through the whole thing is beyond me.

Here's the thing about Suckerpunch... What did people expect this movie to be? Because a TON of people i've spoke to about this all have the same conversation with me:

"Suckerpunch was garbage! It looked so awesome in the trailers..."
"Well, what were you expecting?"
"I don't know. The trailers looked awesome. Hot girls, mechs, dragons, steampunk nazis..."
"Yeah. And the movie didn't have that in spades?"
"Well, yeah, it did but it all sucked!"
"I'll ask again, what were you expecting?"
"...I don't know.."
"Were you seriously expecting a good story that combines all those elements? And directed by Zack Snyder?"
"Obviously not."
"So...?"
"...I don't know!"

It baffles me, I guess. Did I like it? Myeh. For what it was, it was fine. Kinda fun. I mean in the first 20 minutes we got two music videos, that was pretty different and interesting. Zach's a great visual storyteller(and not much else, to be honest) so I thought this movie only played to his strengths.

Bah. Sorry for the rant :D I'm not trying to defend the movie; to each their own. But I'm just curious how SO many people were disappointed with it. I just don't know what else they could have expected other than what they got.

chrisdude 01-15-2014 05:56 PM

I can think of three times when I actually wanted to get up and walk out of a movie: When a Stranger Calls, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and Watchmen. I just wanted to die in my seat, so I could leave.

To be honest, I'm sure I've seen worse stuff on TV or Netflix, but I guess that wouldn't upset me in such a memorable way.

The Stryker 01-15-2014 06:00 PM

Not really the worst movie I've ever seen but Dark Knight Rises was the worst I've ever felt in a theater.

Man of Steel was another one. Bummed me out and I was completely zoned out around the part where he fights the spider robot drill thing.

RaphAndDonnie 01-15-2014 06:05 PM

Broken Lizard's Club Dread. My God that movie borders on being so bad it's good.

I felt a bit like that in MoS. So much fighting that by the time the last battle began, I was like, "More? I wanna go home..." Definitely felt better the second time, though.

Jester 01-15-2014 10:00 PM

A lot of the "so bad their good" flicks, Plan 9, Terror Of Tiny Town, Manos: The Hands of Fate, Birdemic, The Room, Abraxas: Guardian of the Galaxy. Good times.

Wildcat 01-15-2014 10:02 PM

Ive seen bad movies but theyre more funny than awful because theyre so stupid.

There is one movie I truly hate, Close Encounters of the Third Kind. I know its considered great and all but that was the most worthless 2+ hours Ive sat through.

In short...its far too much buildup for little to no ending if it can even be called that because not one miserable thing is ever explained. Not even vague interpretation.

Refractive Reflections 01-16-2014 03:24 AM

Most of the time I'm able to avoid bad movies either by reading what critics commented about it or from word of mouth from friends and acquaintances.

One movie I went to where I was bored beyond measure, and where the plot was thin and insipid was The 13th Warrior (1999). I think there was so much enthusiasm about Antonio Banderas after the successful, The Mask of Zorro in 1998, a lot of people assumed The 13th Warrior would be just as great but it wasn't.

...I'm sure there are others, but I would have to dig deep in my mind for them. :lol:

Candy Kappa 01-16-2014 04:34 AM

The Michael Bay Transformers movies are terrible, just plain terrible with little to no redeemable qualities.

Pearl Garbour is another train wreck, the first American Godzilla, the Silent Hill movies and the Resident Evil flicks.

Yeah, Ive noticed that. Video game movie adaptations are almost always terrible, because they miss the point and appeal of the video game in question. and when there is one that might be good, it never gets made.

There was a Castlevania movie in the works, but they gave up on that one.

Yeah, but usually they often are enjoyable in a "so bad it's funny" but Silent Hill and Resident Evil just makes me groan.

ObiWanFan4life 01-16-2014 06:04 AM

All the Friedberg/Seltzer movies are horrible, but the worst of them all has to be Disaster Movie. It was just painful to watch. Easily the worst movie I've ever seen.

Dragonball Evolution and The Last Airbender were frustrating for me to watch as a fan of their respective shows. Say what you will about Michael Bay and George Lucas, but at least they know how to direct and shoot action sequences.

A Good Day To Die Hard made me ashamed to be a fan of the franchise and action movies in general.

Batman and Robin is comedy gold. It is so awful and poorly made, that it's hilarious.

DarkLightDragon 01-16-2014 07:01 AM

Last Airbender: Though I'll admit I'm not a die-hard fan of the show, this movie annoyed me in how not only was it a poor adaptation of the source material, but just a bad film in general. Wooden acting, bad pacing, little-to-no character development, and just really below average special effects. I know all of that makes it sound like it's a laughably bad movie, but even if you laugh throughout the whole time, it gets a bit depressing. And I just love how it ends with a cliffhanger. The perfect example of M. Night (or Nick, whoever made the decision) counting the chickens before they hatch. While I recall hearing the film did make enough profit at the box office, it wasn't enough to green-light a sequel, though the blacklash was probably more than enough to scare them away from doing one anyway.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs: Yeah, I'm probably the only one who didn't really fall in love with this movie despite hearing so many people saying it was good. Wasn't a fan of the animation or the character models. Too exaggeratedly expressive for my liking. The characters weren't very likable or interesting, and the jokes, can't remember one. Didn't even bother with the sequel.

Krutch 01-16-2014 04:37 PM

Man I followed the preproduction of Silent Hill like a HAWK. I was so damn certain it was going to be the one that broke the stigma of video game movies.

Then I saw it :(

^This! What were they thinking? :roll: oh wait, yeah, money :D

Jack and Jill was pretty terrible, I love Adam Sandler when he's working with Drew Barrymore but his films without her are getting worse!

Dawnatello Turtle Chick 01-16-2014 05:35 PM

Along the lines of bad movies made from video games- Max Payne. I couldn't even finish it... just..... couldn't. I have no idea what they thought the games were about. But the movie was just ..... I just want to forget that I tried to watch it. "Tahiti is a magical place."

ObiWanFan4life 01-16-2014 05:46 PM

On the subject of video game movies, House of the Dead maybe one of the worst ever made. It was poorly acted, sloppily written, and horribly shot.

miru 01-16-2014 06:57 PM

Alice in Wonderland (2010, direct-to-video). It has worse animation than Johnny Test, horrible public domain radio play audio, hideous character designs, the whole enchilada of hell. It's truly dire.

Well there are people who liked it. I, as well as some others, are just not in that camp. It's just a matter of personal taste.

I did like the designs of the queen's soldiers though.

MsMarvelDuckie 01-16-2014 10:04 PM

Bad movies? How about Wolf Creek? Boring, predictable, uninspired. I know it was supposedly based on a true story from Australia, but the entire movie was just painful to watch.

And as much as I hate to bash any Marvel movie- X-Men: The Last Stand. That movie could have been so great, but they utterly dropped the ball on the Phoenix sub-plot. Angel's part of the movie was decent, and I liked the will-she/won't-she aspect with Rogue and the mutant "cure", and even the stuff with Leech and Magneto's force, (though I didn't like their version of Spike).

X-Men: First Class was more of the same. I went in with high hopes, only to see characters misused, misplaced in time/place, and even killed off prematurely or in ways that made no sense. Darwin could survive in SPACE with no oxygen, and in the presence of all sorts of powerful energies- and he can't handle Shaw redirecting and amplifying Havok's power? Get real. That should never have happened. Also, their "Angel" is too confusing. I kept thinking they were using Pixie, as she has the same powers, and is far better known. It also made it over-complicated to use the same name as another character who also has wings- THE "Angel" from Last Stand- Warren Worthington. It made no sense to me. There was little development of anyone but Charles and Eric, so most of the other characters seemed pointless. The ONE thing that I liked was the backstory between Charles and Mystique, and the addition of Azazel (who became Nightcrawler's father!).

I didn't mean the Tim Burton one, I meant This obscure direct to video version.

BabyTurtles 01-17-2014 07:59 PM

worst movies that I actually payed to watch in a theatre.

animated: hotel transylvania

it was just all over the place....and too cheesy.

live-action: the last airbender

.....ugh....do I have to say why?

Baby Genuises 3 (Direct to DVD) - You might think I'm trolling and making this one up.....I'm not. This actually exists, and it's even WORSE than the first two movies. And if you had the misfortune of watching those you know that's saying something.

MsMarvelDuckie 01-18-2014 09:19 PM

And as long as we're on the subject of bad video game movies- Super Mario Brothers. Need I say more? But at least we'll always have the first Tomb Raider movie and the first Mortal Kombat.

Her name is Angel, not a codename like Warren. Angel Salvadore.

Her backstory is completely changed from the comics from abused teen runaway to stripper but it is the film version of her, not to mention she should be in a modern day setting as she joins Xavier's Institute after Wolverine saves her from the U-Men.

What was cool with Angel (and Beak) was that they weren't pretty supermodel looking or heroic muscley like the average X-Man, but was among the rather unfortunate mutants as she had to digest her food like a fly and had fly wings. Beak, a fellow student she got romantically involved with and gad children with had chicken features.

She did after M-Day become pretty like the rest on Marvel's superheroes, and is now a member of the New Warriors as Tempest.

Speaking of crappy X-Men movies, let's not forget to mention these gems:




Candy Kappa 01-19-2014 04:36 PM

Generation X was amazing, best Emma Frost ever. And Banshee... Dear lord, that movie.

Wolverine Origins is just a mess on so many levels.

chrisdude 01-19-2014 04:48 PM

I haven't seen Generation X since it debuted on television. I actually remember it pretty well, and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. I even got a Skin action figure because of that movie. He had long arms and his fingers stretched out. I brought it to after-school care, but the other kids didn't know who he was. :lol:

FlogginMcMurryZombiePizza 01-19-2014 05:06 PM

Recent bad movies were the two zombie movies Danny Trejo was in.
Rise of the Zombies
Zombie Hunter.

Uughh

Jester 01-19-2014 05:13 PM

Cold Fusion. When a character says "Electoralmagnetic Pulse Weapon." you know it's a bad movie.

CyberCubed 01-19-2014 05:17 PM

World War Z.

The Last of Us was better.

Type 97 Chi-ha 01-19-2014 05:38 PM

In the theater? "The Fountain" was definitely a stinker. My then-girlfriend apologized to me repeatedly for taking me to it. Slow moving, overacting, confusing, supposedly deep-meaning...and no payoff at the end, except that it's finally over.

raph27 01-19-2014 08:09 PM

TMNT 3. :tlol:
RIPD.
Both Percy Jackson movies. I love the books but the movies are crap.
