Worst Science Fiction Film of All Time II: The Quickening

[areaseven]

Time for a Bad Movie Actor spotlight:

Nicolas Cage

Sure, he may be a member of the Coppola family and he has an Oscar for Best Actor. But that was because his character in Leaving Las Vegas was a suicidal drunk, which he pretty much is in real life. Put him in any other film and you'll have disastrous results. Maybe he has a handful of good movies such as The Rock, Face/Off, Moonstruck, Peggy Sue Got Married, and Kick-Ass. But look through the rest of his filmography and you will find some of the worst movies ever produced. Just to name a few:

• Fire Birds (1990)
• Gone in 60 Seconds (2000)
• Windtalkers (2002)
• The Wicker Man (2006)
• Ghost Rider (2007) and Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2012)
• Next (2008)
• Bangkok Dangerous (2008)
• Season of the Witch (2011)
• Trespass (2011)

With Cage's long string of bad films and just unbearable overacting, maybe it's time for him to...

Of all the bad films Nicolas Cage has starred in, which is the worst?

I don't care what anybody says, Lord of War with Cage in it was awesome.

And now for the latest candidate for Worst Christmas Movie Ever.

The Room: The Game!

...and its apocalyptic ending!

I need to get tipsy and finally watch The Room someday...

I need to get tipsy and finally watch The Room someday...

You should. It's a completely mind-blowing experience. As it's an independent film, there's no issue on who greenlit it; it's just a question on why people agreed to work with Tommy Wiseau on this.

[Gubaba]

I need to get tipsy and finally watch The Room someday...

I'm with A7. It's pretty great, even if you're sober. And there's SO MUCH wrong with pretty much every scene that it's got excellent rewatch value. You'll notice something new and stupid every time you see it.

[areaseven]

On a side note, Greg Sestero, who played Mark in The Room, wrote the book The Disaster Artist, which details his experiences on working with Tommy Wiseau. The book gained enough attention for Seth Rogen to pick up the rights to produce a film adaptation with James Franco directing it. In addition, Franco will play Wiseau while his brother Dave Franco will play Sestero in this film.

I keep seeing "everything wrong with..." videos, and expecting them to just be a rip of the entire movie.

Seriously, this didn't need to be more than five seconds long. Uwe Boll is what's wrong with it. As is every other piece of garbage he's ever crapped out.

[Mommar]

That's not fair to Karen Allen, we all get old.

I found it to be massively enjoyable mainly due to the fact the cinema sins guy goes from his usual snarky self to being completely flabergasted at how poorly made this film was.

[areaseven]

Who wouldn't agree with her?

[reddsun1]

Granted, film trailers can sometimes be very misleading in that 3 minutes of awesome could wind up utterly sucking as 90+ minutes of actual movie. Happens far too often, as movies go; so this could wind up being a total snooze-fest. But if there's an award somewhere for Best Trailer, then by God this one oughta be on the short-list...

Proof that some boxers should stay out of the big screen.

It's that time of the year again. The nominees for the 35th Golden Raspberry Awards have been announced. Expect a clean sweep by Transformers: Age of Extinction, unless The Legend of Hercules or Saving Christmas prove to be worse.

This year, a new award will be introduced. The Razzie Redeemer Award goes to a Razzie alumnus who has gradually improved his/her career. Oh yeah, Ben Affleck's taking that home, as he was The Bomb in Phantoms, yo!

One of the worst films of all time - especially since it's where this thread got its name - gets analyzed.

[Dynaman]

Found another film to go in this Category. Being a low budget movie I would normally cut it some slack but for two sins.

1 - They SOMEHOW finagled Patrick Stewart into narrating it...

2 - They were trying to do a tribute to Ray Harryhausen with the stop motion creatures but they did it so terribly badly.

That just about sums up Sinbad, the Fifth Voyage

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1403862/

Actually the movie is spoiled by even existing but...

It is so bad I can't tell if the Lightning bolt hitting the evil wizard in the posterior at the end was meant to be a joke or not.

Fifteen minutes to say "it's an M. Night Shamalama film"?

[areaseven]

Nicolas Cage and Hayden Christensen in a direct-to-video film. What could possibly go wrong?

[areaseven]

As Kingsman: The Secret Service has kicked off the spy film season, it's time for another topic. What is the worst spy film of all time?

I nominate this atrocity of a film. The Avengers (not the Marvel one) was one of the top spy TV series in the 1960s, with unforgettable performances by Patrick Macnee as John Steed and Diana Rigg as Emma Peel from 1965 to 1968. All of that went down the drain because of this horrid 1998 remake. Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman were miscast as Steed and Peel, respectively. Sean Connery just can't be a villain. This film was a box office bomb (US$48.6 million compared to its US$60 million budget) and a critical failure (5% on Rotten Tomatoes an 12 out of 100 on Metacritic).

On the bright side, Thurman went on to star in Kill Bill while Fiennes became the current M in the James Bond 007 series.

And now for another analysis of a film that is highly regarded in this thread.

[areaseven]

I was really hoping he would Dogshit this movie, but yeah - that Jedi throwdown on Geonosis just barely saved it from that rating. Still, it's the worst of the entire series; only an inch higher than the Christmas Special.

The one movie Michael Caine regrets starring in. I don't blame him, as the reshoot forced him to miss the Oscars to pick up his award for Best Supporting Actor in Hannah and Her Sisters.

[areaseven]

Who in here has seen the 2008 film Babylon A.D. starring Vin Diesel? Is it as bad as the critics say?

Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 6% - "A poorly constructed, derivative sci-fi stinker with a weak script and poor action sequences."
Metacritic Score: 26 out of 100
