For me it’s the movie The Beach. I think the idea is good, and the movie started out good, but it’s not executed that well.

Seriously? The second trilogy was a big part of my (and a lot of people) youth, alongside with lotr and harry potter

It chapter two the first time I watched it. I loved chapter one and was super hyped when I heard they were making it. The mini series from the 90s is burned into my psyche from when I was a kid. I did end up having a better time with chapter 2 the next time I watched it though.

Watchmen, I loved the graphic novel and wanted to like the movie but it was a mess.

I thought it was better than the big budget version of lotr. Pity it was never completed.

It was a clever take on DID. Realizing that Tyler and The Narrator are the same person is one of those OOOOHHHHH moments and you wind up watching it ten more times to see what you missed. It also had a profound cultural impact.

Dumb and Dumber Too. I didn’t see the whole movie but from watching clips of it on YouTube I wouldn’t want to watch the whole thing.

I think it’s called blue velvet. It’s got that hot guy in it. From the notebook. The movie just dragged on.

Citizen Kane was the most disappointing movie I’ve ever seen. Everybody said how great it was and me and my sis watched and were just bored out of our minds. I’d rather watch files on my computer load for 3 hours.
