Phantom Menace.

Even though it is the best of the prequels, and could have never lived up to the hype, it is still got the biggest "what the hell was that?" out of all movies I've seen

---

Nothing comes close.

I'm with you on this. I feel like the movie was marketed as more of an action and adventure film (maybe I'm misremembering) and so I was really confused and disappointed when it was over.

Highlander 2. Walked out of the theater.

Phantom Menace
Last Jedi
Temple of Doom
Didn't particularly care for Quantum of Solace
The third Star Trek movie of this recent batch was a dud.

But the big two are Batman Returns with all the stupid penguins walking around with missiles on their backs.

And Catwoman. You have Halle Berry and Sharon Stone and you turn out a piece of garbage movie.

WW1984 is so bad it's funny so I don't consider it.

Damn, it's almost like we're brothers. I have said this exact thing with regard to my dislike of Batman Returns. That movie was not bad up until that point, after which I checked out.

Can't agree with TPM, though, but until The Last Jedi, that was this board's favorite whipping boy. That movie faced an impossible task with all the fans waiting those 16 years, all of whom undoubtedly put together a better movie than George Lucas did (right, TPM haters?) And even though I consider TLJ to be the absolute worst Star Wars movie ever made, I did in fact see it in theaters multiple times (as I did all other Star Wars movies except Solo, which I saw only once) and I have rewatched it a few times at home.

Temple of Doom had some great moments, a great score, but it also featured two of the most screechingly awful characters in Short Round (annoying brat) and Willie Scott (blonde bimbo whining about her nails and her dress from Paris).

QoS - I have to admit was far better when I rewatched it during a 007 binge prior to No Time to Die, but when the wife and I left the theater, we both had this WTF kind of 007 movie was that supposed to be?

Star Trek Beyond did in fact suck ass.

Never saw Catwoman. That just looked like hot garbage.

WW1984 sucked ass.

You'll be glad to know I saw those stupid penguins with missiles in the Lake Theater.

Last movie I saw there was Young Guns. I really loved getting to go to the movies at that theater.

Mission Impossible 2. That disaster taught me how little impact actors have on movies. Good Director = Good Movie. Bad Director = Bad Movie.

Thing is, Woo isn't a bad director. It just didn't work for this one.

I'm gonna also say TPM. This was still when I had expectations for these kinds of movies. The 7-9 Star wars I waited for years before seeing them because I assumed they were bad so I couldn't be disappointed because I had such low expectations. Same goes for any reboot or aging director.

Mad Max. One of the only two times that I have walked out of a movie.

I won't be seeing the next one as a result.

The Matrix sequels are a distant second.

Episode 1 of Star Wars. I enjoyed watching 4, 5, and 6 several times, but have not watched anything Star Wars related since that abomination.

---

I liked 1 ok.

2 ruined it for me. I've never actually watched 3 though.

I like 7 even if it's just a remake of 4. 8 is the worst and 9 is bad but JJ Abrams attempts to redeem it and make ir fun.

The Dark Knight Rises - There was so much hype behind that one and it didn't come close to being as good as the Dark Knight.

PS - Batman Returns will always be my favorite superhero movie.

I'll also add. Spectre

Maybe that is the one I meant.

Whichever one had the guy drilling into Bond's head with a needle.

Good call. Such a letdown after 2 excellent movies preceded it.

Indiana Jones IV. I was so hyped for it. I think I learned to measure my expectations for everything after that.

---

Oh man. I had never seen any of the other Indiana Jones movies, and my wife (GF at the time) was super hyped for a new Indiana Jones movie. That movie was absolute trash. It's a running joke now how I'll never go back and watch the old ones with her.

---

Please tell me you finally watched Raiders and Last Crusade. You are depriving yourself.

I was always surprised Nolan agreed to do The Dark Knight Rises, especially without the possibility of Ledger coming back.

It's really amazing how much of that movie has no sign of Batman in it.

Any Matrix movie after the first one.

The Gods Must be Crazy

I walked us out and got money back. Only time ever to do that.
