The Green Hornet? Red Riding Hood? Ghost Rider? Eragorn? Catwoman?

Awful, awful movies, all of them. Yes, worse than the Transformers flicks, in my opinion.

I'm going to call $44 million big budget just so that I can say Battlefield Earth. John Travolta chewed through scenery like it was made of slim jims.

Green Hornet would have been good if they could figure out the freaking tone of the movie.

"60s nostalgia? Modern day comedy? Serious superhero movie? Screw it, we'll just make it up as we go!"

Or if Seth Rogan wasn't in the lead. That would've helped, too.

The adventures of Pluto Nash. Was it a parody? well what the hell was the source material? Is this a comedy? I'm not laughing. Why the hell is Eddie Murphy starring in this? One of a very small handful of movies I walked out of, without that concern of "I paid money for this, so I'm sitting through it."

My wife said "Transformers, any of them, pick one...they all missed the point." Ahh true love.

The Terrible Green LAntern movie, I'ts so bad that even when there isn't another Green Lantern movie we need to have "the terrible" as part of the name.

The worst thing it's that it isn't some terrible movie, that way I just lose movie paying to see it, the crappy thing was the first step to a DC universe line of movies, a Flash movie would be made if this was great. It wasn't it was crap. And it was extremely expensive.

I wore a costume to see it, and I tried oh god I tried to enjoy it, I didn't realize how much did I hated it until my girlfriend saw me almost asleep

And what did Warner Brothers learnt from this, nothing, absolutely nothing, they got the hacks that made the script to make the one to Wonder Woman.

It was buddy film, two friends finding friendship, having adventures, fighting, making up. Watch it like this and it's pretty enjoyable.

Without a doubt Transformers 3. I know a lot of people are going to say that, but well...There's a good reason for that. It's just...depressing by the end of it. When Ken Jeong randomly pulled a couple of guns on the Robo-Vulture, I think I felt the collective value of film-making drop a little.

Although I will admit that Shia Le-Bouf or whatever was actually pretty entertaining. Whether he meant it that way or not is a different discussion.

John Carter

The most boring, uneventful fantasy movie ever. I'd take Transformers and Sucker Punch over JC in a heart beat. They were dogshit, but atleast they were memorable dogshit. I can look back at those movies and think, "God, that was fucking terrible."

John Carter is absolutely nothing happening for 2 and a half hours, with an art direction that seems to come straight out of Xena: Warrior Princess. It made Avatar look like Ben-Hur.

250 billion dollars well spent.
Hell yeah! A story about a Civil War veteran that gets transported to Mars and gets caught up in a war between factions of aliens and humans; with 250 million dollars in budget and the guy who wrote and directed Finding Nemo and WALL-E at the helm? You seriously couldn't make that even remotely interesting?! Why?!

Also I'm going to say X Men Origins Wolverine...

You want to know why no one has mentioned that up till now?

Because none of you even fucking remember it.

Alright, I'll bite. Avatar. The James Cameron one, not the Shamalaayaldjflkajdlajfdasfjl;kj one.

Both times I've seen it, I came away thinking, "God practical real effects looked so good in the 80's. I wish we would return to those days and stop relying on computers that make EVERYTHING look synthetic, fake, and cartoony". I would far rather have a cheesy guy-in-rubber-suit movie than one where the monster is just some digital effect. At least it would be real, made by artists who work with their hands.

Also the story sucked and saying the movie was about the "experience" is a stupid excuse. Every movie is an experience, Avatar is a bad one.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. In all my life, I have yet to see a worse film.
Wow, you have it pretty good then.

dunno i saw transformers 2 in cable or something for free and i still wanted each minute back i lost to it, it was gawd awful to.

but thats kinda what i expect from a bay flick is horrible script with awful characters alot of teeny t&a shots just cause, horrible camera work, and such cheese i want to bash my head into a wall.

so they do not even count since that man should not be allowed to direct movies period.

Go directly to film history, Do not pass personal judgments, do not collect 200 ego points.

Beat me to it. Avatar was the second movie I ever thought was a complete waste of money to see in theaters (The Cave being the first). It's not the worst movie ever made, but it was worth about as much as a direct-to-DVD movie.
