OMG that movie was horrible. I don't know if it was horrible horrible or just a horrible disappointment.

I mean, here you have great talent and the potential to be a really funny movie, but it was so dry.. so dead pan, it was intolerable. EVERYONE (me, wife, mom, brother) fell asleep half way through.

I'd forgotten about Life Aquatic. I fell asleep during that one. But I think Tom Cruise's War of the Worlds was my least fav movie of all time.

Gods & Generals, I think it was called. Some 74-hour civil war epic with no appealing qualities to be found. Horrible, boring, long. I wanted to leave at the intermission, but a friend convinced me to see it through. He apologized profusely when it was over.

Glory is still > all other civil war flicks.

Worst pain ever, and I usually can deal with most movies, but this was such crap. *shudder*

Same movie I always reply with Raising Cain, I paid for my g-friend (wife) to see this gut wrenchingly awful POS back in the day and have been angry about it ever since.
I was laughing in the theatre at the "scary" or "edge of your seat" parts and people were acually getting mad at me...

But after paying for and hating the first you went to see the second one...and after paying for and hating the second one you went to see the third?

When someone mentioned elephant I was reminded that Gerry was quite awful too. So add that to the list along with V for Vendetta and Barry Lyndon.

I can guarantee that 95% of you will recant your previous nominations after seeing this steaming pile of horsesh!t.

The question was worst movie you paid $$$ to see

Not many of us would be stupid enough to pay to see a movie with that title.

Well I sort of got it for my brother as a really lame Christmas gift. He likes watching absolutely terrible movies and laughing at them, so there ya go...

You would think there would be more of this type exitement, but NOOOOOO!
That was the one and only "Action" scene in the whole movie, and that was near the end. Had nothing whatsoever to do with the plot, IIRC.
The rest merely consisted of a bunch of scheming, planning and high-tech "gobbldygook", boring, boring, boring!

I just netflixed scannners. While it wasn't the most entertaining I really liked the art the one scanner mad along with all the other set scenery.

While they aren't on my favorite list, I doubt you'll be getting many to agree.

Yep, me too. A TERRIBLE story and plot, and one that could have been told in a 3 minute cartoon.

Hmm. Fortunately, I've never seen any of those stinkers. Hell, I haven't even heard of most of them.

They need to make a rating/gross ratio...What fraction of people have actually seen those?

IMDB does a good job of rating movies, they have some formula that cuts out some ratings of 0 or 10 if there are a lot, I'm guessing the majority of people voting for those gave it 1-3...and seriouly meant it

I agreed with just about all the posts till I read this one - I couldn't possible disagree you more than with the LOTR statement. All 3 were great (expecialy the extended versions).

I enjoyed the book Da Vinci Code - but the movie wasn't good - they missed so much detail
