Since the Cat in the Hat was mentioned, how about the Grinch Who Stole Christmas? Man what a pile of crap that was. Hell, put any recent Christmas movie on the list (Christmas With the Cranks, Fred Clause, Deck the Halls, the entire Santa Clause trilogy). Even Reindeer Games deserves to be on the list somewhere.
There hasn't been a good Christmas movie in almost 20 years!

Dinner for Schmucks. Horrible horrible movie.
Not as bad was Due Date. I only hated it because im sick of movies (like Schmucks and Due Date) trying to make it seem like if you dont be nice to complete morons and then your an evil person.

But really the worst movies of all time are thoes damn parody movies by Freidberg and Seltzer. They include such gems as Epic movie, Date movie, Scary movie 3 any and all of thoes movies are horrible.

My god man, the mist had the most epic ending ever, and the creature effects were downright awesome.
I almost got dumped that night for busting out into maniacal laughter at the end, in the theatre, with horrified onlookers.. Best. Twist. Ever.

Yeah, the ending was sweet. One of my fav endings ever. I liked the Mist. Was it kinda silly with the aliens, sub par acting and bad effects?? Sure, but there's a lot more to this movie than on the surface.
How would people react if put into a situation like that?? Who would turn on each other?? Would people band together with a crazy religious lady?? WHo knows, but I found the interaction between the characters to be pretty interesting. Underrated movie in my mind.
Not great by any means, but worth a watch IMO.

You aren't mad that it was a shot at Canadians, you are mad that it was a shot at Saskatchewan  . That might have been the only funny part in the movie actually.

The only problem with the movie was the fact that it deviated from the book, primarily in the ending. When I read the book some 20 years ago, I was mesmerized by its complete awesomeness.
The movie captured that right up until the end.

Elf is already a holiday classic. Other than that, I mostly agree with you, though.

Maybe not the worst of all time, but "Dude, Where's My Car?" was one of those that I was embarassed when I had to return it to the video store.
One of my friends (a girl of course), was raving about it and how funny it was. It went against my better judgement, but I gave it a chance anyway.. What a POS movie that was.

What if you didn't read the book?? Then the ending was pretty sweet.
And I've read what the ending in the book was, sounded kinda boring if you ask me.
If you say the movie is pretty accurate to the book up until the ending, then the movie ending is WAY better.

Since Mean Girls was so awesome, I decided to give Mean Girls 2 a chance.
Huge mistake.
