Sharkboy and Lavagirl.
God this movie was so terrible that I don't even know were to start about how bad it is.
So yeah, I'm gonna start with The Vampire's Assistant. Cirque Du Freak was my favorite series growing up. It was funny, it was dark and scary. It was amazing. Darren Shan the writer (Main character in book is also named Darren) was my hero.
Then I see this crappy trailer of the adaptation last night and I almost wanted to kick my TV in. Darren is a teenager, Mr Crepsley looks like somebody Seth Rogan would buddy up with, Steve goes from future sociopath to jealous best friend, you can pretty much tell with this movie that Twilight played a part in how it's adapted! It's Dragonball Evolution except he get the girl! The girl might I add isn't to be his love interest, I don't even remember her in the book, but I remember a love interest in book 5, not book 1, and she didn't have a TAIL!!!
The only thing this damn thing told me to do was re read the entire series, watch the movie, and tear the thing in two as I review/rant as loudly as possible...[/end tarnished childhood memory induced rant]
...Anyone else got anything they've seen in trailers, theatres, etc that makes them boil?

X3: The Last Stand
Alright, the first X-Men film was decent, not spectacular, but it did it's job of setting up the characters and the X-Universe for future installments.
X2 kicked all ass, gave us great set pieces, character development for even the second tier characters (Ice Man specifically), and a great introduction for Nightcrawler, not to mention the cliffhanger with the Phoenix.
Then X3 came along, and because the Fox execs had to boneheaded about it, they rushed in with no script, a new director, and an incomplete cast with no Nightcrawler, no Cyclops, and killing off/demutating half the characters over the course of the movie. And let's not even get into how they botched the whole Phoenix arc. X3 wasn't just a major letdown after the insanely great X2, it was a nuclear bomb that I won't even stop to watch on cable airings.

Gladiator. Every time I see it and come to realize that a film with a script that bad won the Oscar drives me right up the wall.
The first few seasons are great but after awhile it loses it's touch.
Agreed. Besides the bad acting I hate how Sharkboy and Lavagirl are always at each other's throats. I thought they were a team or something.
Lol.My mom loves this movie but it's mainly because she thinks Russel Crowe is *shudders* hot.
It's pretty decent IMO but I don't think Maximus really got enough revenge. He should've gone all Kratos on everyone. (Kratos from God of War).

Planet of the Apes remake. Yea I know its a dead horse to hate on it, but I've done it since day 1. Nothing really redeeming about it, the direction is bad, acting is bad, the costumes as realistic as they are still look dumb to me, and then the ending just couldn't be taken seriously.
However after learning about the problems Burton had behind the scenes, I've more or less let him off the hook with that.
Spartan. that movie is completely confusing. Nothing's explained, and you know nothing about val kilmer's character.

Naruto films 1, 3, and 4. Thos films were AWFUL! They make the show look bad. I also can't stand the Hairspray film. Ugh.

The movie adaption of Watchers (Book by Dean Koontz) My god is this "adaption poor, I hate even using the word adaption to describe it. It is not like the book in anyway. Ok I take that back, there is a super smart dog, and another deadlier creature in the movie and thats it. Don't get me started on the characters how they took characters who were love intrests in the book and made then mother and son in the movie. And this movie has one huge plot twist at the end of the movie which is the biggest slap in the face to fans of the book. My god was it bad.
Seeing that happen to what is probably my favorite book made me want to rage BADLY.
After seeing Monsters vs Aliens I just said to myself,cmon dreamworks produce something worthy cause after Shrek theirs not much good dreamworks animation worthy of watching.
Ask me about a movie chances are I've seen it!
