    It got such bad press I couldn't wait to rent it. It's not "Battlefield Earth" kind of fun though.

      Worst I've ever seen is Hasslehoff's Nick Fury.

        If people tell me something sucks I'll usually see it for myself anyway, just to be sure. Cause someone else's taste isn't always mine. In this case tho I should've listened

          I picked Steel over Catwoman simply because Halle Berry is better looking than Shack...

                  I'll agree with this 100%, although I guess it doesn't really have an even playing field as a made for TV movie. We are talking about the level of production values that gave us Generation X and the Justice League TV Movies.

                    Wow, that's tough. I've never seen The Spirit or Steel, and I've only seen bits and pieces of Catwoman that I flipped past on TV. I can't really pick those, even though I know they look horrible.

                    Elektra wasn't really bad, per se, just totally unwanted by just about everyone.

                    Superman IV would have never been great, but maybe if it hadn't had it's budget slashed in half and edited together by a salad-shooter it would have at least been watchable.

                    Superman III has too many good moments to be the worst. The bad moments are almost unwatchable, but the good moments are pretty entertaining.

                    Was Crow: City of Angels the 2nd one? If so, it was a flaming turd.

                    Spider-Man 3 has some awful, cringe-worthy moments, but I feel that by that point the studio was inflicting their will on Raimi. My kid loves it, so it works on some level. I can't say I hate it. It's just far short of the first two, especially the 2nd movie, which was a near perfect Spider-Man story.

                    Howard the Duck, I never cared for him. Too young to really get him in his heyday. I saw the movie when it came out on VHS. I think that's the only time I watched it. It's...odd. It looks like a kid movie, but it's racy. But I guess the comic is too. I seem to remember it being not very funny, but I can't really judge it versus the source material.

                    Batman and Robin has no excuse for being that bad. Everyone involved should have known better. Mega-budget, huge stars, famous director (who actually does have some talent, despite what everyone usually says about him), massive product tie-ins and merchandise.

                    Okay, I'll pick that one. It derailed a billion dollar franchise for 8 years. But it did give us the Nolan reboot as a result!

                      It's tough becuase some of these looked so bad I never saw them

                      Steel - I never liked the cahracter in the comics so I never put time into the Shaq film

                      Crow city of angels - only saw the Brandon lee film never the sequels (and didn't even know crow was a comic for years after the film)

                      Elecktra - hated Daredevil so I never gave this a chance no matter how cute jennifer Garner is

                      Batman & Robin was horrid but the "logical" over the top progression from Batman Forever. The effects and Mass villians take over the film making the weak plot that much worse (like SPiderman 3) but the effects are well done

                      much as it pains me -
                      Superman iv is my pick, it had potential (nuclear man, clark's double date, hackman returns) but the execution UGH (never mind Jon Cryer replacing Ned beatty) and now having seen the alternate cut scenes it actually could have been worse and it derailed superman films for 20 years (and counting based on most peoples feelings about Superman returns)

                        Havent seen Catwoman or a few of the others. Most had some good moments. Superman 3 had some great moments like teh junk yard fight. Supe 4 still had Reeves , I didnt like Spiderman 1 AFTER he got the costume , I really enjoyed Spiderman 2 , and Im not a big Doc ock fan, I was looking forward to another Spiderman but then there was 3.

                        Personally I have a serious Hate On for Dark Knight for many reasons.

                            That is a pretty bad list but most have some redeeming qualities - for instance 10 year olds loce B&R cuz it is colorful, has lots of characters and action.

                            i didn't see spirit

                            elektra takes the cake
