Hands down, for the production money that went into it, The Hobbit trilogy.

This is the only movie series that legitimately made me mad. The book seemed so simple to adapt to the screen. Just follow the book, with a little cut out to help with screen time, and watch the money roll in. Instead, we got one of the worst book adaptations Hollywood's ever seen.
The live-action Hobbit movies are the only movies that have a worse budget-to-quality ratio than Star Wars Episode II
Super hard for me to answer, because I almost exclusively watch good movies that I know I'll like.
Elektra and Daredevil come to mind.
Also Avatar. Amazing visually, but with the tritest of stories and 1 dimensional characters. I was so bored by the end of it.
Barb Wire starring Pamela Anderson. She is not known for being a good actress. I guess she has other assets that set her apart
I think it's mostly her breastsets, not her assets.
Jupiter Ascending - Terrible acting, story & let's not talk about the CGI
So it's actually impossible for me to have seen this movie, because it wasn't made and definitely doesn't exist, but The Last Airbender. I'm glad it doesn't actually exist, because if it did, then it would have been made by M. Night Shamalamadingdong and would have been some of the worst cinema ever created. Should this movie have actually existed, it would have been a sophomoric and badly made disaster with some of the worst writing, action, special effects, pacing, acting and a complete misunderstand of the source material.
If I were to have pirated it and watched it, I would still want a refund.
But that never happened, because there is no movie in Ba Sing Se.
Star Wars:The Rise of Skywalker. I have never left a movie feeling like my intelligence was insulted until that movie.
That movie was ten times worse than TLJ, an a absolute shitfest from start to finish.
Rise of Skywalker is barely a movie. It feels like a reddit post written by someone mad at TLJ.
The sausage party or what ever it's called. Everybody was recommending it to me, such a funny movie.
What a absolute shit show was that. The only part that was a little bit funny was with the stoner dude having a existential crisis with the talking food.
This movie was an unmitigated disaster. Awful, but not bad enough to enjoy because of it being bad. Too tone deaf to enjoy watching, not tone deaf enough to enjoy lampooning.
Setting aside stuff like Plan Nine and Manos and The Room and Birdemic, probably Star Trek XI, the one that JJ made. Splicing together test footage of Bela Lugosi and his chiropractor is one thing, but desecrating something beautiful is a sin.
The room is one of those movies that is just so bad itβs good.
The βDisaster Artistβ is the culmination of that.
Unpopular opinion but, Avatar 2: The Way of Water. While it was mostly visually stunning, the writing was just βtoo painfulβ.
Very popular opinion. What a huge waste of time. Most expensive B movie ever, and doesn't have the camp value to pull off how bad the script is.
Birdemic comes to mind. Bad acting, slow start, weird dialog, and of course the birds!
The problem with Birdemic is that it isn't even bad in a fun way.
It's true. Actually watched the whole thing.
The first 'The Human Centipede'. ~~The 2nd is kinda cool~~ Also, taking the oportunity to share a community to publish your favourite film frames !filmsframes@lemmy.world
The second Transformers film was so bad I was actually angry when I left the cinema.
At this point, I don't even know which one that is. Every damn on I've seen has been trash and I swear they are all named something like the fall of such and such. Basically making it impossible for anyone to know what order they're in.
The Mary Poppins remake. To be honest, the movie was ok, but what really ruined it for me was the fact that a girl asked me out on a date to see the movie, then decided I wasnβt The One halfway through and just up and left
In The Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, starring Jason Statham and Ron Perlman. I saw it in theaters. When the evil army started loading their ninja turtle orcs into the catapults, setting them on fire, and launching them over Definitely-Not-Helm's-Deep, the audience started cracking up and openly making fun of it. It was a terrible movie.
Probably the live-action Cat in the Hat movie. It was horrible.
What are you talking about? I can't imagine a better movie. They could not have executed that acid trip of a film any better if they tried. Truly one of the greatest pieces of cinematography.
I know I am going to be down-voted to hell but I really hated Fight Club.
I'll give you an upvote but I 100% disagree with you hahaha
I think a lot of people like that movie for the wrong reasons.
I am Jack's complete lack of satirical comprehension.
Why? Interested on hearing you out. It was interesting the first time I watched it.
Agreed - it's not a good adaptation of the book
Woody woodpecker, epitome of lazy Hollywood film making, nothing unique or redeeming at all just another cgi mascot in a real world setting with a bollocks story
I couldnβt make past 20 minutes of Cats. Itβs just so bad and weird it makes me uncomfortable watching it.
This would be higher if people actually saw it lol. That being said, I have not either
Dragonball Evolution
I don't watch very many movies and this might be a controversial answer but the Hunger Games (at least the first movie, I've only seen the first one). It actually took me a whole month to watch it because the first time I tried to watch it, I fell asleep about 5 minutes in and I had to build up the mental fortitude to actually finish watching it. And it took me a total of three sittings to watch because I didn't have any connection to the story or the characters at all. I think I also remember the second half of the movie being actually good (not great, just good) but nothing really notable happens in the first half.
I think if they gave less time to the back story of the characters and focused more on the hunger games portion, it might have been fine.
A Christian Carol. I know Christian movies are low-hanging fruit, but the awful CGI, terrible writing, horrible camerawork, and nonsensical story really just make it truly awful.
I've seen a ton of bad movies over the years, but Moonfall has probably got to be the worst I've seen recently. Picture every possible disaster movie and sci-fi movie stereotype and trope... they are ALL in that film. I started laughing about halfway through and just couldn't stop, it was so bad
The worst movie I ever saw in a cinema was a Milla Jovovic flick called Ultraviolet.
How bad was it, you ask. Well, I would have left the cinema but my girlfriend was sleeping soundly and I didn't want to disturb her. Honestly, people were just looking at each other after the movie was over, openly laughing and talking to strangers about how bad it was. You could say it was so bad that it brought people together over how awful it was, so that's nice.
THE STEWARDESSES in 3D was the first film I ever walked out of.
