I Demand My Money Back!! The Worst Films You've Ever Had To Sit Through

Yeah, on reflection I feel a bit bad about rating ROTS as one of the worst films ever, and Jedi for that matter. Star Wars was a major part of my childhood, I guess I shouldn't knock it so hard but I just felt short changed by episode 3, especially at the end. But I'd like struck from the record, Sith wasn't one of the worst films I've seen. Now Anaconda, thats a different matter.
 
Ive never liked the Lion King , always thought it was a cheap trick to rob the storyline of Bambi then to add insult to injury they got Elton John & his syrupy songs to make it even worse. Disney at its truly appaling worst. They realy are the forces of darkness.

Cant be doing with Heath Ledger , found all his films tedious.

Gangs of New York, what was Scorcesse thinking about?

Yet to get what it is about Baz Lurhmann everybody seems to go potty about , he's nearly as bad as George Lucas. Even his chanel adverts where boring.

I find any film with Leonardo Di Crapio to be good at sending me to sleep.

:)
 
I watched sideways on dvd.....i'm not a big wine drinker... and the film was pretty much all about wine tasting. So i couldn't care less about 99% of the film
 
Wing Commander anyone?

What a waste of perfectly good BAC/EE Lightning's and Canberra's :mad:

Thunder City should have got some of them on a "bogof" deal.
 
:D

I am of the school of thought that M. Night Shyamalan's films are getting progressively worse! I refuse to watch this latest one on account of the last one I watched, which is actually my contender for "I want my money back."

I am not surprised one of M. Night Shyamalan's films is on this thread already... but my choice is...

LADY IN THE WATER.

Now, I rarely go the cinema these days but have in the past sat through many a disappointing, boring or just downright rubbish film and not said a word until the end, when I have just said to whoever I was with, "well that was a good waste of..." However, I found 'Lady in the water' so boring I was actually reduced to making deliberate snoring sounRAB throughout it - luckily there was only me, my friend who had insisted on seeing it and one other person in the screen. Believe me, I am not proud of making a fuss when at the cinema but that film stank. The plot was pretty dire but there was just no pace to the film whatsoever - it didn't get going for me at all. I remember saying to my friend, "I wanna go and see something else" and mooting the idea of going out to get our money back, but was talked into staying to watch the entire thing.

To be honest the film made such an impression on me, I can only remember about two things - there was some random minor character who was constantly doing bicep curls, but only exercising one arm, and one of the characters was called Story.

DIRE!

I really enjoyed 'Signs' and 'The Sixth Sense,' found 'The Village' a bit too far-fetched, but tolerable, but 'Lady in the water' was probably the most unimpressive film I have ever seen in my life. I think you would have to take LSD before watching for that film to come to life.
 
The only film I've ever come close to walking out of is Lost In Space with Matt Le Blanc. I did manage to sit through it just about but by the end of it I needed several showers to wash the stench off me.

There've been a few others which haven't really done much for me (most of which have been menetioned elsewhere) including

AI - it was a nice idea but it was way too long and considering it's theme so little happened that it rarely held my attention and I nearly fell asleep

Alexander - Actually did send me to sleep, I was routing for them to finish him off about 1/4 of the way in. Why were they Irish? Why was his mother younger than he was? WHY WAS THIS EVEN MADE?

Vanilla Sky - the original spanish film 'Abre Los Ojos' was great and everything that this was not. Tom Cruise was woeful and I can never understand a word Penelope Cruz says in English.

I can't actually think of anything else though I sam sure there are others. Most films have something to redeem them to me but the above just didn't.
 
Harlem Nights (Richard Pryor what were you DOING?!) and more recently, Mission Impossible and Mission To Mars. I'm a great believer in the idea of Brian De Palma being given retirement after The Untouchables - which was fabulous - and never being let near a studio lot ever again. Those two later films were proof if any were needed.
 
You're just being awkward now. Yes, what you're saying is true, but the fact is, the previous person didn't compare Disaster Movie with 5 completely different films. They are S-I-M-I-L-A-R.

I don't give a crap if you haven't heard of them before, the fact is, they're similar, thus making Revelian's post valid.
 
We rented "The Day The Earth Stood Still" last night. What a pile of crap. Please don't make the same mistake we did :(


PS Yeah, whoever said Cloverfield... awful awful film. Those characters were so foul, I was cheering when they were offed.
