what's the worst movie you've ever sat through?

And one that I didn't sit through - I walked out after less than an hour:
The Protector - The Tony Jaa movie about a guy who breaks people's arms to save his pet elephant. The fight scenes at the beginning of the movie were actually quite bad, and everything else was so terrible I couldn't even bear to watch. It was so poorly edited that most of it had severe continuity problems, especially during chase scenes. Apparently the last 30-45 minutes were full of awesome fight scenes, but I missed them.

Deep Blue Sea was a bad movie, but enjoyable. Ditto for Scary Movie. Temple of Doom is a good movie, it just pales in comparison to Raiders and Last Crusade (by a long damn shot).

But the real reason I quote your post is for The Protector, for which you earn a coveted "Epic Fail" award. This movie, simply put, kicks ass. Let me preface this by saying that anyone who watches a martial arts movie for the plot is a retard. That said, Protector has some awesome fight scenes; the capoeira master, Nathan Jones, the goofy ass fight with the roller bladers and ATVer where Tony Jaa backflips off a piece of glass as an ATV breaks the fuck through it... And that's not mentioning the scene where Jaa breaks into the club and fights off wave after wave of bad guys in a single, unedited, cut, which runs for like 8 minutes straight. If you entered this movie expecting Shakespeare, yeah, you're going to be disappointed, but come on, this movie has some of the best fight scenes in history. Jesus God man...

I understand exactly what you're saying, but the reason I walked out of this movie was not because of a bad plot at all. I never said that. When I said "continuity problems" I meant that from one cut to the next, things didn't stay in the same place. Like I said, during chase scenes, you might see a car going around a corner chasing another car, and then after the cut the two cars are in a completely different location doing something else.

But that wasn't why I left. The reason I left was because, for the first half of the movie, the few fight scenes weren't even that great. They were overly choreographed and unnatural. Not enjoyable at all. I went on YouTube and watched some of the fight scenes from later in the movie, and it actually made me sort of disappointed that I walked out when I did, because I missed all the good parts. If I had walked in a little after the point where I walked out, I probably would have been very happy with the movie.

So yeah, in short, I left because even the fight scenes sucked, and I didn't expect them to get any better. Also, I saw Ong Bak and it was awesome, loved it.

Freddie Got Fingered. So glad Tom Green's not getting much publicity anymore

I'm surprised nobody mentioned "Bug". That was one piece of crap.

"Date Movie" also sucked big time. I gave up watching those parody movies.

At the theater = V for Vendetta

On video = Not sure, too many choices.

I agree. I kept waiting for it to get funny, but it never did.

I also agree with Lost in Translation. It just never got interesting.

The only movie I've ever turned off was The New World. It just flat out sucked.

When I saw this thread I promised myself I would not beat the dead horse that is The Happening.
So, I will say Scary Movie 3. I walked out it was so awful.

Ringu. Saw it on DVD. It sucked ass, not scary or suspenseful at all.

Just saw this again...awesome movie! Don't know why this didn't do better in the theaters. I guess it didn't catch with some, but Damon, Jude Law, and Gwyneth Paltrow did an outstanding job imo.

usually, when a movie is universally panned I stay away from it, but I had to make an exception for a post apocalyptic movie with an interesting concept... dear god, I think I was wiping away parts of my brain off my shoulder when I got out of that crapfest.

I didn't mind Waterworld. Having a hard time thinking of "worst". Tremors 2 and 3 sucked hard.

which tremor was the one where the graboids evolved? i thought that one was pretty damn good. Sum of all Fears and Dungeons and Dragons are the worst ever. I even fell asleep in Sum of all Fears

to my netflix queue

They were the lowest ranked movies on imdb I could find. I'm hoping to have a more definitive answer to this question in the near future.

Good choice if this dialogue is anything to go by...

Freckles: He's a hunter!
Figgus: Space alien hunter.
Tammy: So, we're like preys to him, and like, animals or something.
Figgus: No one wants that.
Freckles: It's a game to him. He's on a hunt.
Figgus: How do you know?
Freckles: I grew up with this, I know this! He's not gonna quit until the creature's dead.
Tammy: And us?
Freckles: We're in the way.
Hilary: Unless... just another trophy.
Figgus: Just like, "the most dangerous game." Intergalactic style.
Tammy: Since when are you so literary?
Figgus: Since when are you some rough and tumble biker chick?
Tammy: You do see I'm holding a gun.

Alien vs. Hunter

Biggest load of crap I've ever seen...

Apoc.

Some of you people are definitely retarded.

These movies cannot possibly be put on a "worst" list:

Titanic - definitely a sappy romantic chick flick, but really really well done.

Lost In Translation - I can see people not liking this, but you can't possibly say this is the worst movie ever, just because you don't appreciate subtle humor.

Casino Royale - do I even need to comment? This was a great movie. If you're not into Bond, whatever, but worst movie? Come on.

Airplane - the humor is corny, but this is a comedy classic.

Independence Day - Yeah, it's no oscar worthy film making, but it's a solid "blow tons of shit up" entertaining action movie.

Syriana - Politically offensive to some maybe, but a very solid movie.
Austin Powers - Stupid childish humor, but enough laughs to keep it enertaining.

Superbad - WTF? How can one of the funniest movies of all time be on someone's "worst" list? Unless you are a mormon or quaker or something and too offended to laugh.

Star Wars - Ep 4 and 5 - YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS!

Barton Fink - /me sits in stunned silence, wondering how someone could dislike this movie.

Vertigo - Yep, dude, you're definitely retarded. No offense to retards.

ET - anyone who doesn't like this movie has no soul and will burn in hell for eternity


The worst movie I've ever started to watch was Joe vs The Volcano.
But I sure as hell didn't sit through the whole damn thing.

The worst movie I've ever sat through is The English Patient. Because it got such rave reviews, I kept thinking it had to get better, but it never ever did.
