Aeon Flux and Ultraviolet. Really boring and bland and unmockable.

Van Helsing was pretty terrible, and a complete mess.

Let's Go to Prison - hey, directed by Bob Odendkirk, he was on Mr. Show! Should be funny, right? NO. NO IT ISNT. I felt so bad for Chi McBride.

Aeon Flux I'll give you, but Ultraviolet was beautiful. :devil:

Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre.

In both instance, I turned to my friend about half an hour into it and said "So, when does this movie get funny?" and turned it off.

Once again you don't let me down Nick. I can count on you to be the exact opposite of me in taste in movies, without skipping a beat.

Blade 3 I wanted to walk out, but couldn't since I was with my husband and some of his friends. It was beyond bad. The only movie I have seen that comes close to it in awfulness was Solaris (2002).

Really? I thought Blade 3 was a great movie to make up for the atrocity that was Blade 2. Then again I blocked out every scene that didn't have Hannibal King it..... :whistling:

For me Blade was ok. Blade 2 was kind of bad, but watchable in a rainy boring Sunday afternoon kind of way. Blade Trinity...:facepalm:
Ryan Reynolds was incredibly hot in it though!!

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past - and most other movies with Matthew Mchonogey (however you say that)

(in the opinion of my family - I didn't see it) Where the Wild Things Are - The family saw it; the camera work made them sick and made it difficult to tell what was going on at times, the kid seemed emotionally disturbed rather than wild, and it was too intense for PG - kids were leaving, freaked out at bits like a monster tearing another's arm off.

Will Ferrell movies (any and all - and yes, I do feel Ron Burgandy sucked)

Totally agree with Will Ferrell movies with one exception: Stranger Than Fiction.

Everyone, I now give you: the worst movie ever.

HP Lovecrafts The Tomb.

To this day whenever someone asks me what the worst movie I ever saw was, I visibly cringe. This movie isn't just not fun to mock, it deflects mocking. Any attempts to point out just how terrible any given moment is will just be the last vestiges of your sanity trying to keep your soul from dying. Your voice will be monotone, your skin pale, and your words fruitless. The Tomb will make any other movie that has been listed seem a masterpiece, I guarantee it.

The worst movie I have ever seen, which I am also ashamed to say I sought out, bought, and now own, is called Spanish Judges. Hands down worst movie ever!

Gah, I am getting pissed off just thinking about that shit.

Probably GI Joe.

I went to see it in theatres wit some friends wen it came out and I probably spent a net 20 minutes with my face turned away from the screen as though watching the movie was causing discomfort, like staring into the sun.

Then me and one of my friends went to our usual pub where I proceeded to chug a pitcher of cheap domestic.

I've heard such mixed things about where the wild things are. I never read it, so I don't have any emotional attachment, so I really just don't know if I should see it or not.

Equilibrium. Sorry, just don't like that movie.

Don't want to veer too far off course, but I love watching this movie. Yes, I know the plot is a ripoff of Fahrenheit 451 and it was trying hard to capitalize on the success of the Matrix, and there's one plot hole in the middle of the movie large enough to drive a galaxy through, but it's still just an oddly fun movie to watch. I don't think another movie so full of ripoffs and plot holes has ever managed to be so creative with fight scenes.

I suppose I should at least offer up something on topic as well:

Spiderman 3: Only worth watching if you want to see what happens when a director uses a movie to stick it to the publishing studio.

Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, Transformers, Transformers 2 - The fact that these movies made and continue to make truckloads of money has made me completely lose faith in the film consumer, and the best evidence I can produce that we are heading toward Ass: The Movie in the near future.

You had faith in the film consumer?

Like. Really? :bush:

I lost hope for our future in entertainment when Survivor and Who Wants to Be A Millionaire, destroyed ratings for years.

I second A Sound of Thunder. Went to see it in the local cinema because it sounded good. Biggest mistake I've ever made with regards to movies.

I liked Van Helsing, though.

The thing about most of these movies is that they're movies you didn't like that much, but other people either like or can at least tolerate.

The only real IMDB discussion regarding The Tomb is 'how far did you make it until you turned it off?' and the most common response is 'fifteen minutes'.

I've never seen Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, but I have some sort of masochistic urge to watch it. I don't know why.

Well, okay, I do know why, and its initials are K.K.

Don't do it, dude. I saw it for free, and certainly don't mind K.K., and it was just awful.

It wasn't awful in the original JCVD Street Fighter hilarious way (Raul Julia fucking rules/d) but awful in the "This is so boring, slow, stupid, vapid, unentertaining in any way" way.

The Legend of Chun Li was as boring as watching water evaporate from a table.

Yeah, the original Street Fighter movie was so bad and campy (and it knew it, too) it twisted right around into "awesome" territory.

Unlike, say, the first Mortal Kombat movie (which came out around the same time, right?), which took itself too seriously.

Gerry has to be the absolute worst movie I have ever seen. After hearing it had Damon and Affleck I thought it would be at least watchable. It is the most boring thing ever. This one shot went on for about 15 minutes (no exaggeration) of matt walking in the flat barren desert, no changing back scape, no dialogue, nothing! I curse whatever forces put it on the shelf for my friends and me to find.

I thought The Musketeer was really bad, though it's been a while since I saw it so I can't give any details. I do recall, though, that they put a bunch of Matrix-style wire-work fighting in there, and it just looked ridiculous on a bunch of rapier-wielding Frenchmen.

The bit where he was rolling around on the ceiling just looked retarded.
