We were talking about this at work and I'd like to continue on with the topic. What's the worst movie you paid money to go see? Not renting or some late night cable watching. I'm talking about traveling to the theater, buying a ticket, maybe grabbing some corn along the way, and sitting down in the darkened theater with at least some sense of anticipation. Then after 5 minutes or so after the reel starts winding through the projector going WTF and looking for the exit?
Mine are Van Helsing, Miami Vice, and Green Lantern.
(this could also include a movie you may have liked, but wias forever ruined by some fuckwit talking all the way through it, or shouted out the ending before the credits even started.....in that case, then Hannibal as well but I would not have liked that movie in any capacity)
Look as heroic as you want, you know you suck you asshat.

Batman & Robin! I swore I would never see another Batman movie after that...I forgave them (or at least forgot) and Christian Bale redeemed the franchise.

"Southland Tales" is on top of my "worst of decade" list
Recent entries "The Tourist" everything about that movie sucked, even as a travelogue
Battle L.A. was a well made movie technically, But with a terrible script that just wasted it actors
and the blatant rip off of "Black Hawk Down" and "Independence Day" (Which itself was a blatant ripoff
of a dozen other movies) for the open ended finale of Battle L.A. was just laughable.
So many more.......

Ug, those Twilight movies are a bit of a scourge, like Cool as Ice. A friend reminded me of why she doesn't let me pick the movie to go see when we go out. Eyes Wide Shut.

All the "Harry Potter" movies suck. Well I assume they do. I walked out of the first one within the first 30 minutes and haven't looked back. The whole premise seemed so far-fetched and unbelievable.

"Waking Ned Divine". I desperately tried to sleep through it all. Think I was snoring, as once I woke up & everybody around me was looking at me & laughing...
"State and Main" by Mamet. He took every cliche ever written into a bad TV sitcom and made a movie out of them. We left half way through.
And seeing The Ring. Movie was awesome, but I was lucky enough to get two young film school students sitting behind me, cynically dismantling every scene.
Funny feeling them still jump at the scary parts, though.
And seeing "Episode 1" on it's first day and being near the end of the line. Movie was crap, and if you hold a piece of paper up to your face and turn it almost completely sideways, that's what the screen looked like since we were up at the very front. Got a kink in my neck. Why do they even have seats up there!?

"I heart Huckabees"
so much cute dialogue, perfect for some slacker college student...but not me!
"Reservoir dogs"
I pretty much hate everything tarantino has done, but this one is the worst (besides kill bill).

"Envy" with Jack Black, Ben Stiller, and Christopher Walken...you know, the one where Ben Stiller invents a spray that makes dog shit disappear? What could go wrong with THAT premise? Ended up walking out halfway through and demanding my money back. Later, looked on the Rotten Tomatoes movie review website where almost EVERY critic recommended spraying the film with the aforementioned spray. "Battle Los Angeles" was pretty horrible as well...when I think back on it all I can hear is Aaron Eckhart telling that kid "you're my little Marine"!

Black Hawk Down
Where do you start? The non-US cast members (like Ewen McGregor, and Eric Bana), who did not succeed at being Americans? Sam Shepard, as the commander, who was totally miscast and really should have known better? (once a hippy, always a hippy...) The creation of such stark black and white from a situation with so many shades of grey there was no moral high ground? Or just the inaccuracies? I sat through the film with a row of teenage Somali girls in front of me, who were howling with laughter at various points in the film. You could tell their bull%$# meters were beeping all the way through the film. I came out of Black Hawk Down feeling violated as a thinking human being, a student of military history, and as a follower of current events.
Oh, and Battle of Seattle, for much the same reasons. There was also someone in the cinema in front of me, rolling with laughter at the cliched portrayals of the activists and cops, who stopped to apologise to me at one point. I told her it was alright, I understood completely...
