I gave you my top favorite CBM's the other day, and here's the opposite. I couldn't make a bottom 15 because I thought it was too hard. This was a painful list to think up and I was cringing while writing, but hey... Enjoy.
10. Superman 3
Superman-Pretty Good Movie
Superman 2-Excellent movie
Superman 3:
Terrible movie. Such a disappointment and a slap in the face to Superman himself. While Christopher Reeves did what he could, the rest of the cast was just as wooden as Fangorn Forest. Richard Pryor had no business in this movie whatsoever. This was a movie that DC didn't care about its quality, but rather how much revenue it would bring in. Yeah that worked out brilliantly. . That's the reason why Marvel is beating you in the movie industry, DC; Because you have a bunch of dumbass twelve year-olds who haven't discovered your first boners yet running the business. Supes 3 lands at #10 for me.
9. G. I. JOE.
From the previews, it looked like a promising movie. But sitting through it in the theater was such a travesty. It starts off as a solid movie, but after ten minutes, it takes a steep nose dive into god-awfulness. The acting is soo terrible. The script must have been written by a 12 year old from a ghetto because it was so lame on so many levels. They must've spent over half their budget on the shit CGI polar bear near Cobra's layer.
8. Punisher War Zone
*sigh* I have nothing positive to say about this movie. It should not have been made. Now I've seen dozens of comments from CBM users on here saying the Thomas Jane Punisher was shit. I loved that movie. It was very well done and not to mention underrated. This film...is insult to its predecessor. Marvel tried to reboot this movie like it did the hulk, but the affect it had on the audience was different. Nobody cared about 'Punisher War Zone'. Yeah its sadistic and brutal, but none of its action sequences are promising enough to make it a DVD rental recommendation.
7 Batman and Robin
Here we go...
Tim Burton gave us two entertaining movies with Batman. The first one was solid and the 2nd was a step above it. By then it seemed Batman was doing quite well. But when Joel Schumacher took over, it was done. Schumacher is just not a good director. He's not the worst in the business, but he's stil bad. Forever wasn't a horrid movie, but rather a misguided one. Batman Forever is a horrendous flick, yet it pays tribute to Batman...the campy 1960s Batman that is...with all of the Ice puns and the whole Bat credit card and Ivy's bouncer. Still can't understand why the Batsuit needed nipples. However-The Album was awesome with Smashing Pumpkins. Bone Thugs, R Kelly, and so on.
6 Elektra
A follow up to Daredevil, Elektra makes the Bennifer movie weep in shame. This movie is terrible. Jennifer Garner got a bad image for this 'paycheck role'. Plot? What Plot? The scratchy pacing was the big thing for me; there is real no sense of danger in this film at all. CBMs are supposed to have structure. Elektra did not.
5 Superman IV: Quest for Peace
All time worst Superman movie. This and its predecessor ruined everything magical that the first two movies brought to the big screen. I've only watched this film once in my life and that's all it takes. Making an embarrasing 15 million at the box office, being bashed by every critic in existence, and giving the Man of Steel a bad name, Superman 4 is my #5 worst CBM. One thing positive though-I liked the title.
4 Jonah Hex
What the hell happened here..? Josh Brolin + Megan Fox=??? If they had a whole different cast, a different crew, better production, a different director and completely different movie, then It probably wouldn't be on this list. Don't know why Megan fox would go for a guy who has a messed up face and probably smell's like his horse. It's beyond me. Too fast, too boring, too misguided, Jonah Hex is a bad movie. A really bad movie. Its the worst CBM in the past five years.
3 Catwoman
I didn't think this movie was going to be good from the start. I nearly walked out of the theater that day but I kept myself going only because Haley Barrey looked HOT in that outfit. The plot is poorly put together, the acting sucked, the director must've came from the porn industry because he was clueless as hell. Not even Alfred Hitchcock could save this movie from travesty.
2 Steel
There have been five movies that I've walked out of...this is one of them. When you cast Shaq in a movie, you know shit is gonna hit the fan. Nice goin' DC. Really nice. Let's give ya around of applause. It was as if they took some of the worst people in the industry they could find, put them in a movie, then thought, 'oh lets cast a basketball athlete so we can gain some recognition for this already shit movie!' But the next movie makes this look like inception...
...
1 Howard the Duck
I don't even know where to begin with this movie. The special effects are lame and cheesy, the whole premise is trash, the actors seem not to care about their jobs, and it deserved to become a huge box office flop. I'm shocked Lea Thompson was able to have a career after this film. If you walked up to Tim Robbins and asked him to It was such an embarrassment to the CBM world, as well as Hollywood. I guess some of the people signed onto do this job must have killed themselves due to the humiliation. Heck I would if my family would constantly mock me for it during reunions.
Well that's my list for ya.
