Avatar. It was so gorgeous, so imaginative, so mindblowingly beautiful. Then some git makes the story about Space Pokahontas. Well, blue cat Pokahontas anyway...
Most disappointing movie?

Wolverine: Origins. My friend and I went for the sole purpose of seeing Deadpool and Gambit in a movie. We left the theater, shellshocked, and spent the rest of the night with all of our comics featuring either of the two in a pile between us, trying to purge our minds.
Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. I didn't expect it to be good, my girlfriend convinced me to see it with her... but damn. It was just plain bad in every way.
Sucker Punch...
Its mindfuckery was nowhere near enough mindfuckery to penetrate this guy's awesome skills of deduction!

Star Wars episode 3, because it was the one that revealed that Darth Vader became THE DARK LORD OF THE SITH purely because because he's a whiny little *****.
At the time it was also the series last hope for redemption and it failed miserably.
Another movie that disappointed me was Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy, the book was so much better.

I Am Legend is one of my favourite books and the movie was such a disapointment. I knew it wasn't going to be brilliant and would change some points, adaptions always do, but to change the entire meaning of the book was just downright retarded.
The only film I can think of is Tron Legacy but I wouldn't say that is the most disappointing movie.
Spider-man 3, I went to see that film knowing that Venom would be in it and it would be awesome :|
Superman Returns, I am a massive superman fan, and this just seemed like a soap opera with Superman in it.

"So wait, you plant tons and tons of C4 all over the back way in? You know, the escape route? And now you're going to make a run for it through a mostly open area through the enemies' front door?"
"Yup."
"And you don't see a problem with this?"
"Nope."
Action movies have to stop mistaking bigger guns and muscles equaling badass. I want characters that THINK. I want them to silently move from area to area and take out the enemy Rainbow Six style. You know, like proffessionals.
Advent Children. All the problems of Spirits Within plus the added weight of nostalgia. Dread to think how I'd have taken it if I had the kind of vested emotional interest in Final Fantasy VII which would have forced to attempt a justification of the film.
Also, Steamboy. Pretty but irritatingly overwrought.

Pretty much this. I had played Final Fantasy IX and VIII before seeing this movie and all I could think of was:redisforever said:
"Why is everything so sci-fi?"
"Where are the moogles and chocobos?"
"Why isn't there any magic?"
"Why is nobody summoning anything?"
"What the hell is this plot about, souls of dead alien races and shit?"
But, yeah, if you've never played an FF-game before, I guess it's pretty good (Steve Buscemi totally has to do more voice acting). They should have just called it "Spirits Within" though, not associate the whole FF-franchise with it.
As for my pick of the day: The Spirit. I was really hoping for something in the line of Sin City, you know, since the writer and artist of Sin City was actually on the job! But no, a bunch of pretty pictures here and there, nothing more.
