Worst Movies Ever

I think I was only about 13, but Joe Vs. the Volcano is still the most bored I have ever been in a movie theater in my life.
I appreciate the effort, but believe me, you are not easing my discomfort...
I don't ever watch the obvious B-movies with the titles that tell you it's going to be terrible, so I don't really count those.
I think there are the movies that are big budget/mainstream that are crap like Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Then there are movies that people generally liked or at least thought were decent but I thought sucked. One such movie that had a good cast and decent reviews was Cop Land. It's the only time I legit fell asleep in the theater.

Ooh, that reminds me of another Hanks clunker, the Burbs.
He had done Joe vs. the Volcano, Turner and Hooch, and the Burbs coming off of his big breakthrough/Oscar nomination in Big. That's a pretty bad stretch of films, right before he started hitting box office homers with League of Their Own, Sleepless in Seattle, Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, and Apollo 13. But as somebody said, before you can be a star you gotta put food on the table.
In the 80's, movies didn't have to be good. Probably 8 new movies came out every weekend and we all generally just picked one and went. It just needed a good 2 minute preview to show for coming attractions and a bankable star. They didn't usually have special effects, and didn't need to make $200 million to break even.

You are not dissing the Burbs are you? That's grounds for pistols at dawn.
Showgirls was the Citizen Cane of titty movies
I didn’t realize how bad it was until VH-1 showed it with these awful black "bras" on the ladies. Bad movie and bad work trying to make it PG
I didn't like Pure Country either, it was pretty laughably bad, but I know more than a couple people who wouldn't pull a punch like GS just did if you said it to their face.
I can get not liking Borat but Sacha Baron Cohen is so good at trolling people. I downloaded Borat on Limewire a month or so before it was released, as a teenager it was gold.
Like every movie Chuck Norris has been in from Invasion USA, to Delta Force to Firewalker.
Diane Lane is definitely fine... the movie is not.
The Ref is hilarious. What's not to like about Denis Leary being Denis Leary and a spiteful married couple going between passive-aggressive and aggressive?
It turns my stomach how bad the films are on the list of the most expensive films of all-time...
Looking at that list, the only one on it that I have seen and enjoyed and want to see again or would have any interest in seeing in the first place would be Tangled and that's probably it.
There's probably going to be some MCU people protesting about The Avengers films up there being good (sure sure if you like that stuff, but the original The Avengers and Infinity War were much better than Ultron and Endgame) and Guardians 1 and Guardians 2 were way better than Guardians 3).
The rest are just... barf. How do you spend so much on so many awful films?
Worst movies I've seen in the theatre:
- Freddie Got Fingered: Not sure what's more embarrassing, the movie or the fact I paid to see it.
- The American: A movie about absolutely nothing.
- True Lies: Only saving grace is it has Bill Paxton in it. The best wanker portrayer of all-time (True Lies character, Chet in Weird Science, Hudson in Aliens).
- Suburban Commando: My buddy dragged me to this and it was terrible. I think he also dragged me to another non-sensical Hogan movie around the same time. Thankfully I can't remember that one.
- Old School: I love Animal House. I love Revenge of the Nerds. Back to School is one of my favorite comedy movies ever (RIP Rodney). This was a feeble attempt to rip off all three movies. Having Will Ferrell in it made it even worse.
