    Hands down, for the production money that went into it, The Hobbit trilogy.

      This is the only movie series that legitimately made me mad. The book seemed so simple to adapt to the screen. Just follow the book, with a little cut out to help with screen time, and watch the money roll in. Instead, we got one of the worst book adaptations Hollywood’s ever seen.

      The live-action Hobbit movies are the only movies that have a worse budget-to-quality ratio than Star Wars Episode II

      From the moment they decided to milk it for three movies I knew it was going to suck. It’s a simple little adventure story ffs.

    Super hard for me to answer, because I almost exclusively watch good movies that I know I’ll like.

    Elektra and Daredevil come to mind.

    Also Avatar. Amazing visually, but with the tritest of stories and 1 dimensional characters. I was so bored by the end of it.

      Exactly what I thought of Avatar: visually impressive, but really boring.

      Haven’t seen the second one, but I assume it’s the same.

    Barb Wire starring Pamela Anderson. She is not known for being a good actress. I guess she has other assets that set her apart

      At this point, I don’t even know which one that is. Every damn on I’ve seen has been trash and I swear they are all named something like the fall of such and such. Basically making it impossible for anyone to know what order they’re in.

    Unpopular opinion but, Avatar 2: The Way of Water. While it was mostly visually stunning, the writing was just “too painful”.

      Very popular opinion. What a huge waste of time. Most expensive B movie ever, and doesn’t have the camp value to pull off how bad the script is.

    So it’s actually impossible for me to have seen this movie, because it wasn’t made and definitely doesn’t exist, but The Last Airbender. I’m glad it doesn’t actually exist, because if it did, then it would have been made by M. Night Shamalamadingdong and would have been some of the worst cinema ever created. Should this movie have actually existed, it would have been a sophomoric and badly made disaster with some of the worst writing, action, special effects, pacing, acting and a complete misunderstand of the source material.

    If I were to have pirated it and watched it, I would still want a refund.

    But that never happened, because there is no movie in Ba Sing Se.

    The sausage party or what ever it’s called. Everybody was recommending it to me, such a funny movie.

    What a absolute shit show was that. The only part that was a little bit funny was with the stoner dude having a existential crisis with the talking food.

      This movie was an unmitigated disaster. Awful, but not bad enough to enjoy because of it being bad. Too tone deaf to enjoy watching, not tone deaf enough to enjoy lampooning.

    Star Wars:The Rise of Skywalker. I have never left a movie feeling like my intelligence was insulted until that movie.

      Rise of Skywalker is barely a movie. It feels like a reddit post written by someone mad at TLJ.

      For the life of me I can’t understand this. It doesn’t even make sense from a business perspective. Like, yes people will pay to see this movie no matter what but that good will will dry up eventually. Any amount of effort to have made these movies legitimately decent would have paid off vastly in the long run. It just seems utterly bizarre that Disney would just YOLO this shit and stand around as their golden goose is slowly strangled for what ever gold flakes they can pick out of the shit

    The Mary Poppins remake. To be honest, the movie was ok, but what really ruined it for me was the fact that a girl asked me out on a date to see the movie, then decided I wasn’t The One halfway through and just up and left

    Setting aside stuff like Plan Nine and Manos and The Room and Birdemic, probably Star Trek XI, the one that JJ made. Splicing together test footage of Bela Lugosi and his chiropractor is one thing, but desecrating something beautiful is a sin.

      The room is one of those movies that is just so bad it’s good.

      The ”Disaster Artist” is the culmination of that.

      What are you talking about? I can’t imagine a better movie. They could not have executed that acid trip of a film any better if they tried. Truly one of the greatest pieces of cinematography.
