Most dissapointing movies

Dreamer128 · 09-30-2001, 04:50 AM

I would have to say to mine is Mission impossible2, that one really sucked.
Dungeons and Dragons was pretty bad too.

Yes, I also expected a lot more out of D + D too.

It has been a dissapointing revelation.

oh christ! that is such an understatement....the dungeons and dragons movie is the only one i've seen where i actually wanted to walk out of the theater in the middle of it. a more putrid, vile heap of dung i have never come across in my life. they neither captured the essence or the spirit of true d&d whatsoever. shit, i took it as a personal affront!

I'd have to say one of my greatest disappointments was Star Wars: Episode I.
I really expected more of that. IMHO, there were too many cool special effects and too little plot and storyline! I considered it rather cheap and ridiculous at times. Why the heck is a queen so good at weaponry, that's just one of the questions that pop to mind. And Jaja Binks (howdyou spell it) pretty much destroyed the movie. Whenever a bit of tension was building up, Jaja did something funny, or made a funny mistake. I was really disappointed by that movie.

Kaz, I agree with you. I didn't think it was a really bad movie, but it wasn't a Star Wars movie, if you know what I mean. Jar-Jar was truly dire. So even though it didn't 'suck big time'

it was a huge disappointment - it should have been so much more. I can't see 6 yr old kids worshipping it for their entire lives in the same way that Star Wars affected my generation.... (I was 6 in 1977)

Another big disappointment was Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes. Again, not a completely dire film, but just not as good as it ought to have been.

Gee, this is an easy one - the answer is :

DUNE

I am betting that anyone who read the book, and eagery anticipated the movie, couldn't fail to be disappointed by the plot altered drivel that was served up (cringe) - I would like to take my gom jabbar and pluge it into the neck of that senseless director. Please don't make me watch that ever ever ever again, pleaseeeeeee.....

No, I shall not be afraid. Remember dammit -

"I must no fear. Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will allow it to pass over and through me, and when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its'path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing - only I will remain"

OK, I am better now, I am at peace

I would also have to say Star War Episode I... the movie itself was not too bad but it really wasn't up to par with the other Star Wars.

If I am because I think, then, if I talk without thinking, I'm not really talking! Am I?

Hmm, haven´t seen the D&D movie yet but sofar Plump Fiction, Waterworld are high up on my list. Also the last Star Wars movie was a bit disaponting as well. Darth Maul was the only cool character, thoose silly makeups and he still could look really angry and threatening, and the fight with the Jedis saved that movie. That ''''''''' Jar Jar.. Grrr, worst things to do i a movie is to send in some '''''' slapstick creature and destroy the feeling all togehter. I know that some people liked that bloody frogexcuse but I hated it!

Well, I have to rent the D&D movie sometime...
