| For me, it's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. If you read the "Theatre Going Stories" thread, you know how I feel about this movie. To put how much I hate this movie into perspective, I saw Little Giants in the theater.
Twice. |

| Avatar. I could rant about that movie for hours, but I'll keep it short. Two of my friends and I went to see what the hype was all about, because it was shortly after the release. We all expected a cool sci-fi movie with groundbreaking effects. What we got was a three hour retread of Fern Gully that was better animated. Long movies need intermissions; we were stuck in uncomfortable seats with no legroom in desperate need of a bathroom break for the entire picture. And it was a bad, boring movie. Discomfort and boredom do not a good experience make.
The runner-up would be Slumdog Millionaire, but I walked out before it could be too horrible a memory. |

| Worst theater experience? How about the time i let a guy who couldn't throw a punch to save his life hurl incorrect racial slurs at me while attempting to beat me up? The worst part? It was to go see cop out. Seriously. (Eef, misread the title, so i'm moving this to a more appropriate topic... Click here to read that story.) As for the worst movie i've ever seen in a theater, it's gotta be the remake of the Hitcher. I was at a free preview for it and i walked out. That's how bad it is. |

| Probably a tie between Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Scott Pilgrim. |

| "Romeo & Juliet" (the 90's version), with "The Secret Window" in second place...but not a close second.
Why?
When I went to see R&J, I expected everything to be an updated take on the story. Sure, the filming was, but was the script? Um, no. Who calls their gun a sword anyway!?
"The Secret Window" was just one of those twist-endings that threw me off and confused me completely. Hate when that happens. |

By the way, I actually fell asleep in the cinema when I saw R&J the first time. It was that bad (I say first time because I had to see it again to see why I hated it - wish I hadn't). |

| I went and saw the movie Cursed. Yes, the shitty werewolf movie. I almost walked out it was so bad.
Stay Alive comes in at a close second, the only redeeming factor of that one was the fact that half the audience started MST3king the hell out of the film and by the end it became a comedy. |

| Wow. No Country for Old Men? Juno? Freaking Shakespeare? These are your bad movies?
Come back to me when you've been forced to sit through (that's right, forced) Batman and Robin. |

You juxtaposed the poetic dialogue of Billy Shakes with a modern-day west coast gang setting, and they obviously had a blast. I loved that all the gun types were being called longswords (shot gun!) dagger (hand gun). It was made with a lot of love, if one dares to say so, and an attempt to trick people like a certain previous poster to actually see a work of Shakespeare. The rub, however, would be when they confirm their hatred for Shakespeare.
Ah, but the rest is silence... |

Absolutely. I fail to see what's so great about Shakespeare.

| It's one thing to not like poetry, but seriously, in this grand world of modern cinema, there's far, far, FAR worse stuff out there than Billy Shakes. I just find it odd to consider something you found outright BORING as one of the worst films you've ever seen. |
