-30 Days of Night


I haven't seen it, but I hear it's horrible so I'll blame the writers Steve Niles, Stuart Beattie and Brian Nelson
-Alien vs. Predator(AVP)Alien vs. Predator:Requim(AVPR)

I blame the studios, 20th Century Fox, for actually having faith in hiring these writers.After AVP, I just didn't even want this movie to exist, still blame Fox
-Ultimate Avengers 1 and 2

I personally loved these movies, but why weren't they so successful, because some people just don't like the Ultimate Universe but who to blame, I guess Mark Millar for creating the Ultimate Universe
-Barb Wire

Blame the director and writers, David Hogan and Ilene Chaiken, Chuck Pfarrer
-Batman & Robin

Blame any and everyone that had anything to do with this movie
-Bulletproof Monk

Blame the writers Ethan Reiff, Cyrus Voris. The director Paul Hunter. And of course Sean William Scott for actually trying to potray someone besides Stifler, dude you will always be Stifler, no matter how many immortal asian monks you befriend
-Captain America(1979), Captain America 2:Death Too Soon(1979), Captain America(1990)

Blame the studios, writers, directors
-Catwoman

Now this one was a pooper flush down a toilet, swallowed by a sewer rat and pooped out of that sewer rat. Blame the studios, Warner Brothers and the director with only one name, Pitof. And Halle Berry for acting bad on this movie
-Daredevil

It was alright but blame, Ben Affleck because his Matt Murdock wasn't good and of course 20th Century Fox
-Doctor Strange

Blame Marvel Studios, they just make bad animation movies
-Elektra

Ummmmmm, 20th Century Fox
-Fantastic Four(1994), Fantastic Four(2005), Fantastic Four:Rise of The Silver Surfer

Blame Fox Studios for ruining Marvels First Family(With exception to Chris Evans and Michael Chiklis, they were casted perfect)
-Ghost Rider

Plain and simple Nicholas Cage he should just play old-men, grandpa roles
-Howard the Duck

When I was watching this I was thinking, would a woman really fall in love with a man size talking duck, and she did. Blame any and everyone who had any and everything to do with this movie
-Hulk

Blame award goes to ANG LEE
-The Invincible Iron Man

Marvel studios animation, just not good
-Iron Man 2

I LOVE this movie but some people didn't think it was as good as the first, for these reasons
1.) Not enough action
2.) To much comedy dialouge
3.) Bad script?
I put the blame on Justin Therouix, because Jon Favreau already proved with Iron Man he can direct an epic, but now what element was added to the second on ethat made people not like it the writer
-Jonah Hex

Ain't seen it yet so I'll do a prediction blame, Megan Fox
-The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

I enjoyed this but, I'll have to say the plot is pretty dull so blame the witer and director
-The Losers

Almost finished watching it
-Men in Black II

Blame the writers the first one was better
-The Punisher(1989), The Punisher(2004), Punisher:War Zone

Three failed movies, I don't even know who to blame. I actually like the 2004 one
-Spider-Man 3

It was good but some problems
1.)Topher Grace as Venom!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
2.)Harry looks like a Power Ranger with a jetboard
3.)Harry losing his memory(thats how you replace the drug problem) and he gets his memory back very dumb
4.)Emo dancing Parker(with symbiote)
5.)Sandman being a pansy
6.)Killing Venom, he would have built up to a perfect Carnage reference
-The Spirit

Never seen it, but the trailer looks good, but I know people don't like it so prediction, director
-Steel

Casting everything was wrong, but casting Shaq was just, egh
-All the X-Men movies

Of course do I even have to say

Whose fault do you think it is? Fox didn't make all of these. And don't the successes still outweigh these supposed failures?

I think it would be helpful if this Article had both cost to make and worldwide gross. If you define success normally then that is what matters. You could attach a Fan-based rating to each as comparison I suppose.

There are stories behind many of these productions. Perhaps telling a little bit of each would make for a more interesting read. DareDevil got royally screwed by the Studio but the new Director's Cut shows us what it might have been. I think that is an important example.

First thing what the heck is this article about? Second 30 Days of Night,Janes' Punisher, and the X-Men films are some of my favorite movies so u can eat crap about those. All of the others are bad movies.

Oh yeah what is Iron-Man 2 doing on here it was a great movie it wasn't as good as the first one but it was still good.

what are you guys talking about [WannabeSite]? What the hell am i missing?

anyway, maybe you should actually watch a movie for yourself before you crap on it. 30 Days of Night was fantastic and VERY close to the comics. There were a couple very minor changes, but other than that, it was great.
