No idea what happened to the first thread.

I think perhaps there's mileage in a "worst 'big' film I've ever seen" thread...?

Big wasn't very good.

Clash of the titans and to make it worse I paid extra to see the film in 3D

I've never seen it Harry, but I'm guessing in this version the Americans won

I don't usually like documentaries but pearl harbor was great, very informative

Supersize Me was okay though.

Independance day, Lost in translation come to mind.. and I refuse to watch titanic/pearl harbour/perfect storm and am not convince "there will be blood" would be worth it...

For you.
Hah. Bless.
Categorically, the worst film I've ever watched, by a country mile, was Open Water.
It was just so p155 poor on so many levels. The two main characters are completely bland; I'd say they were immediately dislikeable, but they weren't that good. The camera work makes The Blurred Witch Project look professional. The plot is absolutely non-existent (two people go on holiday, get lost in the ocean, argue a bit, get nibbled at by sharks, the end). There is *nothing* in the way of plot twists, character development, anything at all to hold your interest unless you have a "two people floating around a bit" fetish. The most exciting bit of the entire film was one of them having a wee.

Big wasn't very good in either of the Sex and the City films.
TV series he was ok though.Posted 1 year ago # -
2012 Utter pish
Posted 1 year ago # -
No, Cougar is right.
Open Water, a film so pointless I've blanked it from my memory. It's a true story you know... 2 people go diving, boat leaves them behind... why didn't they just finish with the 'known' part of the true story?!
Inception was rubbish as well.

Natural Born Killers. Went to sleep rather than carry on watching
Posted 1 year ago # -
Inception was disappointing (nowhere near as clever as it thinks it is)
Lord of the Rings (I wanted the hobbits dead)

2nd vote for 2012!! utter and total gash. Not even enjoyable in 'turn your brain off and enjoy the ride' way like Armageddon or Day After Tomorrow, just complete and utter crap. I am actually getting annoyed thinking about it!

darcy, my precious, I'll agree with you on the waste of life that is Lord of the Rings.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Titanic. dreadful. 3+ hours of my life I'll never get back.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Tron Legacy - felt cheated really been looking forward to it too
Posted 1 year ago # -
Independence Day for me too. Before seeing it I had somehow gained the impression that it was supposed to be 'the next Close Encounters'.
It's fair to say I was disappointed...
Posted 1 year ago # -
yup, 2012 was horrific.
Pearl Harbour was rubbish, but the 45 minute bombing scene was spectacular. It's just a pity that what was bolted on before and after it was so bad.

'The Core'
One day i will hunt down the writers, directors' and producers and make them pay for making a mockery of my science.
I now rate all bad films on 'The Core Scale' of 0 to 1.
Zero being any remotely watch-able film and 1 being 'the core'
For example '2012' achieved a mighty 0.87 on 'the core scale' for its faux science and combinations of a) low flying planes, b) jumping cars, and c) cars jumping from low flying planes.

2012
watched it recently - its like 2 hours of watching a dog crossing a busy motorway, and not getting hit for the whole 2 hours
think the same person made Independce Day, Godzilla, the Day After Tomorrow and 2012
I guess they are able to keep making films because they make lots of money - but please won't somebody think of the children?

Rise of the Silver Surfer. Utter utter pap and I am usually a sucker for pointless super hero movies.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Inception. Was told it was brilliant but it bored me senseless.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Alexander, Inception, 2012, Avatar, Titanic, Terminator Inception all hyped up only to be big let downs.

The Hobbit bromance was the best bit about LOTR, but any of those three films were classics compared to Peter Jackson's King Kong.
How does he manage to make you not care a bit about any of his characters at all? It's quite an achievement.

Having heard that Avatar was an overblown load of old tosh, I actually quite enjoyed it.
At least it was fast-paced and didn't have too much soppy stuff.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Highlander by miles.
Then Independence Day, or was it Armageddon?
Those Harrison Ford films where he's a CIA hero or something. Appalling.
Con-Air (
) of course.
Anything, and I mean ANYTHING with Tom Hanks in.I liked Open Water, maybe I should add it to the other thread!
Posted 1 year ago # -
Speed 2 and Dick Tracy for me.
I don't reckon 2012 counts - they made it that bad on purpose surely?
Posted 1 year ago # -
Cougar and TSY - I agree, Open Water was truly shocking, I was rooting for the sharks from the very beginning but even the end short changed us as you didn't get to see the people get eaten.
How anyone can dislike the Lord of the Rings films is beyond me. It's like saying Star Wars is rubbish, or Indiana Jones or something.
I've just nipped out and got The Wrestler, Omega Man, Predator 2 and the original Clash of the Titans on my dinner break, woop woop!

I enjoyed the LotR films the first time I saw them, but find them unwatchable now.

MI1 - I was brought up on the Mission Impossible TV series and the film was just dull carp in so many ways.
Troy - I can get angry just thinking about it.

oh this is easy - 2012 by a long long way!

Spider Man 3 - Should have been good brain out film. In reality absolute pap
Robin Hood - The Russell Crow one. Dear god what was going on with his accent. Even the action scenes weren't that good. And the final beach battle was utter pap. Oh look we've got them trapped on a beach and the only place they can escape is a small up-hill path. I know let's not just kill them with arrows, let's instead meet them on their own ground.
Transformers 2 - Proof that it is possible to get bored of giant robots fighting.

+6 for 2012.
I was REALLY looking forward to this film and it failed to deliver anything except dog turds on toast.
Lost in Translation is also utter pointlessness.
