Battlefield Earth is the worst movie of all time.
Second worst would be a tie between all Ben Affleck’s and Matthew McConaughey’s movies.
Worst movie I’ve ever seen is a tie.
Spiderman 3 and Resident Evil: Extinction.
These movies got over, and I was sitting there, thinking “what the hell was that? Did, did I seriously just sit there and watch that?!”
Honorable mention to that stupid Ricky Bobby movie. As if Nascar wasn’t gay enough, they had to go make a shitty movie about it starring a very un-funny will ferrel.

Hostel didn’t have an award winning script or storyline, but I certainly wouldn’t have called it a bad movie.
No country for old men also wasn’t a bad movie, it just had a meandering storyline and ended abruptly. I realise the Coen brothers were trying to make a statement on this film, to discuss an era, end of an era, whatever, certainly not a bad film. There’s some real crappy ones out there.

I haven’t seen Battlefield Earth but all report’s indicate it sounds like vomit on the silver screen.
Come to think of it I can’t think of a decent film involving Affleck or McConaughey. Good Will Hunting for Affleck, but Damon carried that film. Mallrats maybe, but Affleck didn’t get the lead in that one. McConaughey’s best movie was his cameo/supporting role in Tropic Thunder, which tells me he should have been an “also ran” instead of top billing.
Reeker, Friday the 13th(remake), Date Night(possibly the most generic comedy of all time).
Oh and though this doesnt count since i liked it, check out Valhalla Rising. Everyone i spoke to hated it with a passion but i thought it was excellent.
Milf Lessons 20 was also rubbish…

Dazed and Confused was a good movie that had both of them in it, however neither were leading roles.
I felt really, really offended when I saw “House of the Dead” (Uwe Boll). You have to have REAL [anti]talent to be able to create such a turdflic. I was ANGRY, physically upset.
Modern action movies are for the most part shitty (eg Rransformers, Resident Evil, everything from Roland Emmerich, Iron Man etc etc) but have at least some visual appeal for kids or guys who don’t care.
But Boll’s shittyness is on a different DIMENSION.
If there is a god of bad taste, Boll is his breathing avatar.
Reign of Fire sucked monkey balls…
Catwoman omfg that was bad
Stop of my mom will shoot with stallone jesus fucking christ…

From the previews I’ve seen, you might have to alter this quote once The Town hits theaters.
For the record, I found Battlefield Earth to be a pretty spectacular “B-movie” that failed by marketing itself as a legitimate flick.
I also enjoyed Reign of Fire, so screw whoever mentioned that one.

Is this a serious post? I don’t care because I want to defend Transformers or Iron Man (though I feel they are far from shitty), I’m just genuinely curious as to what you were expecting from a Resident Evil movie.
I get the feeling that some of you are either too damn picky with what constitutes a “good” movie or you have no idea how to properly calibrate your expectations for various films.
Most of the posters here seem to know what’s up, though a distinction should be made between genuinely shitty movies and ‘B-movies’. But then, this probably ties back into calibrating expectations.
I have no expectations other then “I want to see a good movie”.
If movies are extremely campy/trashy I might see them because of that - In fact, I’m a great fan of quite some trashy genres (Ninja flics with Richard Harrison, for instance). But it’s BECAUSE they are shitty. It’s obvious they are very bad movies, since I know beforehand and you could call them genre movies.
I won’t visit the cinema and say fondly: “everything is a turd except Jessica Biel, so I guess I’ll still have a good eveing if I just look at her cleavage”.
No, a shitty movie is like a shitty book - just bad and annoying and a waste of my time.
Films like Iron Man pretend they are good. And some movies with lots and lots of special effects ARE in fact, good, or even great. Spiderman (2002) or Avatar are good examples here. Or the old Star Wars movies. The sfx are in these movies for a reason other then just trying to look awesome.
Transformers, on the other hand, relied too heavily on visuals for the most part and the script was so bad it shouldn’t be used as toilet paper.
Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park
Nothing can top the shittiness of “The Spirit”. I feel bad for S.L. Jackson.
7:00 onward.

Can’t believe I forgot how fucking awful that movie was. I mean, fuck!
The worst/funniest movie is the “Recon” or “Marine Recon” series, the first one was borderline porno and the others were grade school drama club level.

Maybe we’re on to something here. Maybe they function best as supporting actors but not main actors. I saw that State of Play had good reviews and while Affleck’s character is important he’s not the main character.
PS - Was McConaughey was a lead in “A Time to Kill” ?

x2. B grade movies are in a category of their own (probably deserve their own thread). Because I’m sure there are some B-grade movies out there that people actually loved. Weekend at Bernies, Men at Work and Dragnet came to mind, but some of you might not think those was B-grade.
Anything on this thread really should be a movie that was given the full Hollywood treatment and still fell on it’s ass. AND it should be one that you have seen, I’d quote Gigli and Glitter but I don’t know who on this site has seen or dare to publicly announce they’ve seen these too movies…
