Lions for Lambs. I was living in Thailand and movies cost $3 so I'd go all the time, had no idea what it was but I'd seen everything else. For some reason I felt embarrassed watching Meryl Streep sing "Won't Get Fooled Again"

What's it like living in Thailand? I have experience living in south east Asia but never Thailand. Would love to go.

To be fair, I've seen worse movies, but none have left me nearly as mad at how bad it was as Unbreakable did.

There's only one reason to go to Bangkok and Phuket.

I know its a joke but there is really a lot more than the sex industry. Food, culture, atmosphere....

Just saw it last week on Bluray.
Am so glad I didnt pay for a theater ticket. I'd feel bad if I walked out on it. They completely ran out of good ideas by the third one. I think it was only appealing to the younger crowd who like the pretty colors and dont care about story quality at all.
Jokes were forced and unfunny. Plot was weak. Action was meh. Overall a bad experience designed to milk people for their money.
I just saw an article saying Carmen Diaz is not only the highest paid actresses in Hollywood, but also one of the most overpaid considering how little revenue her movies get.
Sad to think she made an assload of cash just for sitting in a booth reading lines into a microphone.

I think the ending was intended as a direct insult to anyone who made it that far.

Hands down for me was Wild, Wild West. I wanted to actually punch the director afterward, I cringe everytime its on. A friend gave it to me on DVD as a joke, I keep telling him that I'm saving it for a special day so i can watch the extras.

Then it goes....

Alexander--Only redeeming quality is Rosario Dawson topless. Sorry it had to be this movie
Swordfish--just flat out terrible.
The Stupids--no need to comment.
Solo--I never let my friends who dragged me to this live it down.
Wing Commander--And to think there is a struggling writer out there with no one to read his script, but Wing Commander gets made! Oh the Humanity.
Waterworld--like Loki said, Costner is dead to me.
Showgirls--I was actually laughing out loud during this one. I thought it supposed to be funny. "I just wanna dance" (in complete flat affect) hilarious.

Are you guys kidding me? If any of these are considered the worst movie you've seen, I would like to be you:

Saving Private Ryan
The Thin Red Line
Apocalypse Now
I Heart Huckabees
The Royal Tenenbaums


For my part, the worst movie I saw in a theater was Date Movie, but I didn't pay for that.

I'd say the latest awful movie was The Orphan, but it was a weird kind of awful - the acting, especially from the title character and the deaf girl, was excellent.. The movie was just awful. Of all time? Ultraviolet.. I had to walk out of Fear and Loathing because it trigger a migraine attack unlike any other, but I can't speak for the content of the movie. It's the only movie I've walked out of
