Similar to another thread but just the opposite

The new Star Wars - My god i was so looking forward to that - but GL just turned it into a giant arse Sandwich. Were to start???? Jar Jar. Nope I can't carry on - I want to cry now......

Alexander - A paddy Greek!! Ok I know he was not greek, but its late and I can't think to spell where he is from

Terminator 3 - Film too far.

Indy Jones iv - Good to the last 15 mins and then a total train wreck

Troy - Brad was so Wooden I got splinters

Transformers - Once you see the robots change once it was dull. Story was piss poor.

There will be others - i have upset myself now just thinking I paid to watch all these at the pictures

Serenity. I was SO cross, I hadn't been to the cinema for months after having dd and was really looking forward to it, great reviews etc etc and it was a Pile of Steaming Shite. Grrr.

Flamesparrow · 21/06/2008 23:05

Oh I loved Serenity!

Was so by the end though. Bastards.

What was that film with Sandra Bullock when she woke up and her husband was dead, then alive, then dead, then alive and blah blah. I went to cinema and was so angry when I came out, we'd paid £20 to sit thru 2 hours of pure rubbish! I was heavily pg at time so maybe that's it. Anyway was rubbish and I waited weeks to go, the ads for it looked really good

AggiePanther · 21/06/2008 23:09

The da vinci code

liath · 21/06/2008 23:09

Dh loved it too & was totally baffled that I didn't.

Am off to see Sex & the City next week and it's my first trip to the cinema in well over a year so hoping it doesn't turn into another let down !!

tinylady · 21/06/2008 23:09

That Edith Piaf one

I hated the Johnny Depp version of Sweeney Todd. I was glad we got two tickets for the price of one - even that I grudged paying for it.

notasheep · 21/06/2008 23:12

American Beauty

Flashman · 21/06/2008 23:12

Oh yes the da vinci god- Tom hanks totally miscast - "quick get me to a libary!!"

And I had high hopes for Transformers I loved it when I was a kid.

Oh god yes, davinci was shit.

Loved Golden Compass though - not sure if that was because I went in thinking of it as a film rather than my beloved book iyswim. I always find Harry Potter is better when I think of it as just a film

sallyforth · 21/06/2008 23:14

The very worst one ever was Star Wars ep 2. Still don't know why on earth I didn't just walk out and leave DH to it.

More recently, The Dark Is Rising. - wtf????

Agree entirely on Troy.
Loved the Golden Compass though, sorry!

expatinscotland · 21/06/2008 23:15

The only reason I'd pay money to go see that new Brangelina film is if she and James McAvoy got squashed by a giant meteor in it.

For real.

fawkeoff · 21/06/2008 23:16

premonition with sandra bullock....utter shit

attonement.....the ending was just shit

Flashman · 21/06/2008 23:17

My god I almost forgot this - it has been pushed to the deepest darkest parts of my mind - but the final Matrix. Just where to go with this. But my biggest piss off where I should have walked - you are facing your last night - machines are digging in - and you decide to have. a. Rave. WTF!!

Open Water - biggest pile of poo I've ever seen!

bran · 21/06/2008 23:21

I thought Meet Joe Black was going to be good from the trailers I'd seen, but it was truly awful. The plot wasn't bad, but pace of the action was painfully slow and the characters were so dull. I spent most of the film itching to slap Brad Pitt and the woman who played Anthony Hopkins daughter. At the very least the two of them should have won some kind of award for the least erotic sex scene ever filmed.

Flashman · 21/06/2008 23:24

batman and Robin - The batsuit had nipples for gods sake - and batgirl - NOOOOO!!!!!!!
