This thread makes me cry.

Movies that shouldn't have been made...well, I don't know. The only one that REALLY jumps to my mind right now is "Batman and Robin". Seriously, look at this video. Sums up the movie quite nicely in about 9 minutes:



The movie is just CRINGE worthy. I remember seeing it as a kid and thinking it was a bit cheesy, but I still liked it simply because it was Batman. A few years ago when I watched it again...my GOD. BLEH! NO. NO! They really should have stopped with "Forever".

Then again, it was from the ashes of "Batman and Robin" that the new "Batman Begins" trilogy took shape and form. From the bad comes the good, I guess.

The attitude of someone whose seen horrid movies made by people who make music videos. Yeah everyone has to start somewhere but don't jump from making Nickel Back videos to thinking you can do a Hollywood production and be a director.

Same goes with writers. David Goyer writes or helps write almost ever comic book movie that comes out. There was one time he actually directed one himself that I recall and it was unwatchable. You can't jump into the action like that. Knowing how to do music videos and being able to do movies are totally different.

I think it had room for improvement, but I agree that it was a pretty fun movie. I mean how often do we get movies like that where it was a crossover that fans really wanted to see?

I guess a thread like this is unavoidable if you venture out anywhere on the Internet. People can't hack that others have different tastes. There are plenty of movies that I think are dumb, but at the same time I'm sure people would criticize half the stuff I like to watch. There are some movies that are almost always regarded as classics, but as for everything else, it can be subjective.

What about Spike Jonze? He started off in music videos and then went on to direct Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, etc. Or how about Michel Gondry? He started off in music videos and later made such films as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep, and Be Kind Rewind.

You're being really ignorant and close minded with what you're saying.
