I'll list five that I don't think have been mentioned yet.

Sucker Punch: Outside of a few cute girls there's nothing to like about the movie. It literally misses every note from beginning to end.

The Hangover 2: Okay so maybe I'm listing it because I saw it and Sucker Punch the same day, but I hated this movie. Filled with vile individuals that I wanted to be killed off for much of the movie. Hall Pass was also truly terrible.

Alone in the Dark: This can't be the first Uwe Boll movie listed, but it's the only one of his I've seen. I saw 20 minutes of Dungeon Siege, and it was just as bad.

Jaws The Revenge: I chose this over Superman IV, mostly because of how ridiculous this movie is. Considering how nonsensical the climax in Quest For Peace is, this one somehow even manages to top that. Why does the shark growl? Why would a shark have a vendetta against Lorraine Grey? Chief Brody died out of fear from the shark?!? Oh #### you, they didn't even watch the first movie!

Slap Shot 2: Breaking the Ice: I watched the movie once and it was just a miserable experience. The Love Guru is probably the worst hockey movie, but I would never be able to sit through all of that.

Grown Ups 2

I'll watch a movie sometimes just to piss myself off, was curious how bad this could be. My expectations were incredibly low but I still couldn't believe what I was seeing. Zero laughs, just painful and cringeworthy. By far the worst movie I have ever seen. Every single cast member completely struck out with every single line. The writing was equally as bad as the delivery.

Drive - There's only so much of a mute Ryan Gosling trying to look "complex" that I can take. Couldn't make it a full hour into this one

Only God Forgives - Yet another Ryan Gosling saying 10 lines throughout the whole movie with a single expression on his face, but somehow I made it through the whole thing. It had some cool violence so I was waiting for something compelling to happen but it never did. I'll just avoid anything with Gosling in it from now on

Transformers 2 - I made it through the first one because as dumb as it was it was still somewhat entertaining. But the 2nd just insulted every fiber of my being, it was just bad in every way something can be bad. Never bothered with any of the other sequels, I don't want to end up with Michael Bay induced PTSD

Pearl Harbor - What should have been a "can't miss" was turned into a ridiculous love triangle snorefest. You have planes, you have battleships, you have explosions, this should have been Michael Bay's ultimate triumph, but somehow he managed to screw it up. I don't understand how he's allowed to keep making movies

Crash - We get it, racism still exists, you don't need to make a 2 hour movie to get that point across

Tucker and Dale is awesome!

Even Cowgirls get the blues with Uma Thurman 1993, is one that stands out in my memory as being one of the worst films I've ever seen, still to this day I remember the anger I felt after watching it, it was just so stupid and it had such a great director, writer, and cast.

The latest TMNT was terrible. I can usually shut my mind off for Micheal Bay movies and enjoy the explosions, but this one had me cringing the entire time. Good thing I watched it on a flight to Vancouver so I didn't have to pay for it.

I'm sure 3 and 4 are even worse, but I don't feel the need to subject myself to anymore of that filth to confirm

forgot about that one. Back when we used to have to rent movies at the store, this one is the only one I took back and demanded a refund. What a piece of crap.

Grown Ups - I turned it off 5 minutes in. I think I grew out of liking Adam Sandler when I was 25.
The Postman - I liked Waterworld so I thought this would be ok. But again 5 minutes in at the little play he was putting it on, I couldn't take it anymore.
Did you mean Troll Hunter or Troll 2? Or did they make a sequel to Troll Hunter? I thought Troll Hunter was pretty good. If you meant Troll 2, then.. yeah.. the documentary on how bad it is, was better.

The Village - you go straight to hell M Night. You go straight to hell and you die.

The Ladykillers - I assume the Coens made this because of a lost bet.

Battleship - where did all those Cocoon extras come from? Did they live on that boat? Not even good/bad.

This Is The End - looked like it was a lot of fun to make. Unfortunately none of that fun translated to the screen.

Napoleon Dynamite - a couple hours of waiting for a film to start. It never did, then some credits rolled, and I had to reevaluate life choices that led to watching that steamy pile.

I'll start off by saying that I've watched a lot of bad movies. I've seen the non-MST3K version of Eeeegah!, and Troll and Troll 2, before it was cool, and became a 'thing'. Also, what people consider 'bad' is pretty open to interpretation. Right off the bat MagnumPEI struck a nerve with Napoleon and Pilgrim, and Jaws has even made an appearance.

I'll stick with the most disappointing movies for me. Or things that managed to ruin future franchises with their stupidity. Here we go :

Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Indiana Jones is such an action movie icon, and the first three movies almost a lesson on how to make a popcorn adventure flick. I think that a full movie on how Shia LaBouf befriended and became King of a South American monkey collective and trained them into an elite fighting force, would have been a more engaging movie.

Sucker Punch
Coming off of 300, Zach Snyder was coming off of a high, with a new visual style and comic book feel to his delivery. This movie should have been an indication to everybody (including executives) that he is ALL visual style, and doesn't know how to tell a story. And then they gave him Man of Steel. Sucker Punch is here because it was a gateway to the possible destruction of the DC Universe.

Star : Trek into Darkness
After watching this movie, you will realize three things. 1) There is no longer a need for spaceships. 2) Everybody is immortal now. 3) Spock is the most emotional cat in Starfleet. These arn't even spoilers. Seriously.

Daredevil
My favorite comic growing up. No one making this movie had any idea what to do with the source material. It took the Spiderman 3 villain overload and plunked them into an origin story, that was Batman's origin story.
Spoiler!

Avatar
I've touched on the ridiculousness of Avatar a couple of times. It doesn't stand up to repeated viewing, and we are going to have to listen to the sequel talk for half a decade now. It's here because of past hype and future hype, and it's all going to be pretentious as hell.

Ryan Gosling is the male version of Kristen Stewart. And I still don't get why he's so hunka-hunka oh yeah baby attractive - he looks like his parents were a weasel and a rat.

The only movie I ever walked out of, was something of Eddie Murphy's, and it was way back in the day - '87, maybe? It was after I graduated. My then boyfriend wanted to see it and a bunch of us went. It was just stupid and we left.

Eddie Murphy is one of Hollywood's biggest enigmas. He was the worlds funniest comedian from 1982 to 1988 when he made Coming to America, and then seemed to be playing a really long joke on everyone by making the worst career choices possible for the following 3 decades (minus Bowfinger). If I took an educated guess, I'd say that you walked out on Harlem Nights.

in no particular order:

The Hulk - did Ang Lee want to make a character drama or a comic book movie? He tried both, ened up with neither.

Bram Stoker's Dracula - just a pretentious pile of crap.

The Matrix Reloaded - I wasn't a fan of the first movie either, but this one just bored me to death.

Pet Sematary - I went into it knowing it would be a throwaway horror movie, I didn't think it would be THAT bad of a throwaway horror movie.

Caligula - a second-rate porno movie wrapped up in historical pretense.
