What's the worst movie that's not ironic and not fun to watch with friends, just 100% terrible, that you can think of?
- I'll say the one that's freshest in my mind. I'd recently had occasion to watch Superman IV - The Quest For Peace. I'd heard it was bad. But even the third movie, which was considered a failure, wasn't so bad to watch. From the opening titles of S4, I thought maybe I'd gotten the wrong movie and this was some home-made fan film or something. As the travesty unfolded before my eyes, I saw that this was a mistake in every sense of the word, from the TV-soap dialog to the awful moon fight, there was nothing at all rescuing this movie from the awfulness that had consumed it. It wasn't a movie you could share in a bad-but-fun way. It was just 100% terrible.
— cjdudley - I worked for a video store (not Blockbuster, but one of their competitors) in the late 1990s for about 4 months, and I will be honest with all of you -- if you really knew what people you know and respect actually ENJOY watching, you'd probably be deeply disappointed at best and ready to pull the plug on humanity at worst.
Exhibit A is that my store had, at one point, 200+ copies of the movie ["Baby Geniuses"](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWRFW5P7-H1E8nRqOCtFPghP6Zz8LwMSdUYkaR_FD9R55lgk3jZ0M5Nb5zu2hK90oPNgzZcR04uEW7Eo2iolxOn7mbgZXB5KfeN1TkEyVioM7Unfo-tXmrnzCAA9942MNJM6mGxGKqr5fV/s1600/Baby+Geniuses+(3).jpg) on VHS, and we would frequently run out and need to place holds on future copies. Brilliant films were released in 1999, but none of them held a candle to the goddamn Baby Geniuses movie. And my store used to play it on a loop inside, so they could gin up even MORE interest in this "film."
It's not good. It's not fun. It should've been used to interrogate detainees at Guantanamo.
— Chastain86 - Just look up horror on Netflix. Your odds are about 9/10 it's fuckin trash
— layer11 - The Eragon and Percy Jackson movies make me upset because they could’ve been very well-done and brought both of the series to life and yet instead they ruined any chance of such great books being brought to the big screen.
— Kenobi800 - That fucking shitty ass Airbender movie. And sticking with the anime theme, that live action Death Note might be equally horrible.
— PureDelight1 - 'Anatomy of Hell'. It's a French arthouse movie from that time in the 2000s when all European arthouse movies featured "real sex". It manages to be explicit and offensive, while also being deathly dull and boring at the same time.
It features porn star Rocco Siffredi in the lead role, who is forced to spout this impossibly pretentious dialogue while trying to keep a straight face. The sex is all that cold, mechanical 'Tab A into Slot B' stuff that art house movies seem to favour. And under the guise of "Feminism", the movie is extremely homophobic: gay guys choose to be gay to avoid man's fear of a woman's vagina....or something.
Only movie I have ever walked out of.
