Worst Film EVAR!

[Koroviev]

You mean a bad Hollywood movie or a bad movie period? 'Cause for the latter I'll just refer you to Youtube.

As for Hollywood movies, Transformers 2. That movie has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

You speak truth. My friends dragged me along to see Transformers 2. I figured that, despite the overwhelmingly negative reviews, I'd at least find some redeeming value in the technological feats. After two of the longest hours, this was simply not the case. The plot was an atrocious, incoherent wreck, the characters were relentlessly unlikable, and at a certain point I just became numb to the special effects. To my knowledge, the film received a Razzie or two. It deserves ten.

Scott Pilgrim.

I hate it with a passion.

wow, my sister gave me a guarantee that i would enjoy that film, im afraid i'm gonna stick with her opinion cos... you know.... i dont actually know you

Scott Pilgrim.

I hate it with a passion.

Eh, I don't hate it, but it definitely leaves something to be desired. There were several moments where I actually felt somewhat embarrassed to be watching it.

Where the Wild Things Are. God that was shit.

Yeah the only reason i didn't leave is coz mah college was paying for it

If I leave a movie, I will go and watch something else without paying again. I went for entertainment. I will get it. I didn't leave because there was nothing better playing.

 

[Koroviev]

Oh god, the Doom movie was shit. Totaly awful. I left 40 minutes in, and that's the only time I have ever done that. Well, I almost did that when I watched Where the Wild Things Are. God that was shit.

I agree, Where the Wild Things Are is simply a drag. The creators had all of these monsters to work with, and all they could come up with was for them to have trivial domestic spats. Even as a reflection of Max's issues, it simply didn't work out to be anything more than mildly tolerable.

I am actually very surprised that so many people responded to my post. I have stated this idea many times in the past, but have never elicited such a response, so I assume you can understand my surprise. I do have answers for everyone who quoted me, so let's have fun with this. First my original post, then responses to the question in the order they were received.

Most movies that are really bad are so bad that they retain some level of enjoyment. I like to call this the Ed Wood effect.

The movies that I truly hate are the ones that are just boring and pointless, but people seem to love them for some reason. These films include, but are not limited to, Shawshank Redemption, The Godfather Trilogy, Scarface and many others.

These are movies that are just not that great, but for some reason people love them. People look at me funny when I talk about not liking them, like I just told them I enjoy kicking puppies. Through having to defend my position so many times, I have come to truly hate movies like this.

...and anything Michael Bay has ever done.

Moving on:

Lol, go troll somewhere else.

I'm not trolling at all. In fact, I would hate for someone to get angry at my opinions. They are just mine and that's all. I find it odd that in a forum where we are supposed to talk about films we hate, I am being accused of trolling for doing just that. If I have offended you, I am sorry, because that wasn't my intention.

Shawshank Redemption

the other two, well I can understand that some people don't like them, but shawshank? dude morgan freeman man.... morgan freeman

I understand it's your opinion and all, but would you care to explain exactly why you hate these movies?

I just didn't like them and found them to be quite boring. It took me several times to actually watch most all the way through.

However, my hatred stems from having to defend my position so much. It gets annoying defending myself so often. It is just my opinion, not the end of the world. It is just that some movies have this untouchable vibe to them that I don't understand. If I say I don't like certain movies people assume I am just trying to start trouble.

I wouldn't have hatred for these movies if people didn't always try to defend their "greatness" without understanding that I am entitled to my opinion.

Morgan Freeman is awesome, but we all make mistakes (in my opinion)

Those movies are loved mostly for their cinematic qualities. They are the perfect examples of the pieces required to make a film complete.

They aren't very good (in my opinion) but as templates they are excellent.

As for Michael Bay, he's just an outstretching of the current trend for empty entertainment. It goes as far back as the first episode of Jerry Springer and still lives on with Jersey Shore. I'm sure as long as our educational system is in shambles they'll be around and be numerous .

I completely support this comment.

Wow, there's a lot of movies here that I didn't even think of putting on here. Also a lot which surely don't deserve to be here. I mean, I know Transformers 2 was not a good film if you try to analyse it, but its ok as long as you try not to think too much while watching it. And the guy who mentioned the Shawshank Redemption ... no. Just no.
I've seen a lot of very bad films, many of which have already been repeatedly mentioned, but my own personal anti-favourite would probably be Alexander.

As for that Mega shark thing... wow. I knew some film makers are bad, but I didn't know any who were actually mentally disabled. Clearly the entire brainstorming process for that film was 'big shark... durr hur hur.'

Oh Hi, I think you won by naming The Room.

 

[Koroviev]

The Blind Side. Its bad enough I had to sit through a movie about football but it had Sandra Bullock in it. I hate her so much it would make Hitler look like a little *****.

Yeah, I don't understand her appeal. At all.

 

[Koroviev]

Classic crap. "Manos: The hands of fate". Everything about that movie is bad. The acting, filming, editing, everything. Behind the scenes of Manos, was a lot more interesting than the movie.

Modern crap. "The Road". I wish he would just have shot the "Papa! Papa!"-kid in the cannibal house.

Recent crap. "Scott Pilgrim vs. the world". I think I'm just too old, I didn't enjoy it one bit. Hoped it was more like "Kick-Ass" and was I ever disappointed. I never fallen asleep in a theatre, but nothing of value would have been lost if I did.

I read the Road, and I loved it. That being said, I agree with some critics in that the book is simply not amenable to film. It is a very nuanced, thoughtful piece that I imagine would translate into an excruciatingly dull cinematic experience.

James Cameron's Avatar.

Fuck that movie, $300,000,000 spent to tell me how much of a bastard I am for abusing mother earth, 300 billion dollars can plant alot of trees ya hypocrite fuck.

 

[Koroviev]

As for Hollywood movies, Transformers 2. That movie has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

How is giant robots fighting not a redeeming quality?

OT: I think that Plan 9 from Outer Space was pretty bad.
Either that or every movie on the Lifetime Movie network. Its like they try to make every movie as terrible as possible.

It ceases to be a redeeming quality once it has been going on for more than two hours.

When that chicke got his arm ripped off me and my m8s were like YES VIOLENCE
but there was no blood just sand....what a disapointment

Actually I think Avatar was meant to tell multinational corporations what bastards they are for abusing mother earth. Or are you the CEO of one of the corporations?

The worst movie I've ever watched all the way through is The Box.

However, I watched the Nostalgia Critic's review of the Star Wars Christmas Special. The clips he showed horrified me enough that I will never, ever willingly get within ten feet of a hardcopy of that movie. It has to be the worst movie ever made, and not in a "so bad it's good" kind of way. I firmly believe that I would literally (and yes, I mean literally) burst into tears if I were ever forced to watch it all the way through. It's that bad.

 

[ZforZissou]

The Life Aquatic

The Life Aquatic!? Okay, now qualify your judgment with elegant prose.

Seconded.

The worst movie I ever saw was Crash (1996). I think the reason I thought it was so bad is because a member of my family told me it was good, but they meant the 2005 Crash, which is good. 1996 Crash might be liked my some, but not by me. I was sitting there for the whole thing waiting for it to get enjoyable or have some redeeming quality, but I just don't "get" it.

 

[Gaderael]

Oh, Stephen King's "The Stand"
I will never get that 6 hours back

Buh...wha...I mean...Yurr...where do you get off...I oughta...You sir are a...I LOVE THE STAND!
It's one of my favorite movies. Right from the opening when "Don't Fear the Reaper" starts to play, I was hooked. ooh, and it's even better when you've read The Dark Tower series, as you get to see more of The Stand's world and of a certain antagonist.

What turned you off from the movie? I mean, if you don't like it, then you don't like it, as everyone's taste is different. Just curious.

 

[Krion_Vark]

napoleon dynamite, no clue how the fuck it has a 6.9/10 on IMBD. It was a shit movie, I'd rather watch "the batman movie that should not be named"

Napolean Dynamite is great I mean a bus full of school children get traumatized by seeing a farmer shoot a cow in the head as they were going by

 

[PhunkyPhazon]

Last Airbender. I had no idea it was possible to fuck up an adaptation so badly, never minding that it's still a terrible movie if you watch it with no expectations.
