Your top five worst movies and why?

Question

Not the obvious choices, (Plan 9 from Outer Space, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, etc), but ones you have seen or have even paid good money for and then made you puke.

Mine:

#5) Steel Magnolias -- 90 minutes of man-hating, heart wrenching drivel.

#4) Dune -- one of the best SF novels ever written, one of the most depressing movies ever made

#3) Titanic -- a bazillion dollars spent on a movie that wasn't as good as the black and white 'B' movie made 40 years earlier.

#2) Star Wars Episode One -- this was so bad I'm STILL in shock...

#1) Iron Eagle -- never has there been a film with a cast of characters so inane, irritating and g*y; never has there been a plot so ridiculous; never has the acting been so bad as to actually make people laugh out loud in the theater -- only to realize that it was never intended to be a comedy. (barf)

Answer 1

5.)The Wedding Planner - It has Matthew McConaughey and Jennifer Lopez.  The only exception for him is Dazed and Confused.

4.)Dirty Dancing -  Women LOVE this movie.  I find it almost uncomfortable to watch.  Here's a quick synopsis - "I don't like you but help me dance." *Shimmy Shimmy* "Nobody puts Baby in the corner!" * Fall in Love* *Shimmy Shimmy*.  The recipe for a movie adored by middle aged women everywhere.

3.) Doctor Zhivago - It's supposed to be a classic and all but I hated it.  It was filled with frozen snot and Omar Sharif.  Not a good combination.

2.) Showgirls - I don't think anyone was turned on by this stupid strippers-have-dreams-too movie.  It seems they decided to back up the cringe worthy script with horrid acting. Score.

1.) Pearl Harbor - This movie was so ridiculous I can't believe there are people who claim it as their favorite.  Historically inaccurate AND socially inaccurate.  No one goes at it with their best friend's girlfriend in an airplane hangar.  Embarrassingly bad.

Answer 2

1) Gigli. Thank god i saw it on TV!

2) Myra Breckinridge. Not even crappy enough to be funny

3) The Legend of the Lone Ranger. What drugs were the writers on who did this mess?

4) Home on the range. Disney's head exploded on this mess, and he'd been dead for 40 years

5) Meet the Spartans. EVERYONE connected with this film must be stabbed with pointed hamsters.

Now, I will agree with your assertions on Dune, Phantom Menace (as it gave us the most detested character EVER, Jar Jar Binks) and Iron eagle, but I wanted to heave a few more into the mix as well.

As far as Plan 9 or Martians go, there is something so stupid about those films, they are hysterically funny. Like you, I am talking films that would make you want to drive stainless steel spikes through both eyes or dive naked into a swimming pool filled with double-edge razor blades

Answer 3

The Mist -- okay, he kills his son at the end and gets saved right afterwards.

Prime -- the girl breaks up with the guy while they are having s*x.

Date Movie -- gross and creepy

Child's Play -- a killer doll? please...

The Break-Up -- the entire time, they are teasing each other about the break up and they don't even get back together at the end!  

Answer 4

5. National Security- A movie that failed at being a comedy and an action movie. In addition the movie was filled with plot holes. Furthermore, the award for most annoying character in a movie goes to...Martin Lawrence.

4. Just Married- I think this movie was an hour and a half but it felt like five hours. This "comedy" was painful to sit through. They used the same unfunny jokes over and over.

3. The Cable Guy- You know how I said the most annoying character in a movie was Martin Lawrence in National Security? Well I take that back. That award goes to Jim Carrey in this unfunny "comedy".

2. Syriana- Don't even ask me what this was about. Even the critics didn't know what was going on in this mess yet somehow George Clooney won an Oscar. I sat through the entire movie, at the same time, hoping everything would be explained and counting down until it ended.

1. Battlefield Earth- one of the most unintentionally funny movies of all time. There were more holes in the plot than in Swiss cheese. The acting, if that's what you want to call it, was incredibly awful. DON'T WASTE YOUR PRECIOUS TIME WATCHING THIS. I could only make it halfway through.  

Answer 5

5. Bug (It went nowhere)

4. The Boogie Man (Plain Ignorant)

3. Jeepers Creepers 2 (Very Boring)

2. The Hills Have Eyes (Even worse than Jeepers Creepers 2)

1. Cabin Fever (Totally devoid of any value, even if you watch it for a laugh)

Answer 6

Starwars 1 was so depressing...:( i wanted it to be good.

Dune was c**p.

Epic movie, date movie, meet the spartans, superhero movie...all are mad. I want to say "they are what they are"..but i cant, they just are not funny.

Indiana Jones 4...i mean, its not TERRIBLE...but Indy only takes out his whip 2 times? It was like starwars 1 all over again, george lucas just doesnt care anymore.

Pirates of the Carabian 3....yuck, i dont even want to talk about it. Its got fun moments, but 1 was so good and 2 was decent...i really wanted 3 to be an epic.
