Most people I speak to have terrible things to say about Blue Beetle, but I enjoyed it so much I saw it twice (I rarely go to the movies) I like that it was a fun time the WHOLE time. Sure, a little heavy on people mispronouncing names, but I laughed, teared up, and genuinely enjoyed the characters.
If you want to see a Buzz Lightyear movie that's more faithful to the character we had in the Toy Story films, then watch Buzz Lightyear Of Star Command The Adventure Begins since it was a pilot movie for a Buzz Lightyear cartoon that came out after Toy Story 2 & was better than the Lightyear movie.
I still wish they had made a World War Z 2 where we could have seen Brad Pitt fighting an army of Zombies storming downtown Moscow. That said, it isn't a perfect adaptation from the book, but I still consider it to be a decent stand alone zombie movie.
Never gonna happen the author hated the movie so much he tried to sue the studio and when that failed he bought the rights too the IP so another can’t get made
But it's not World War Z. I wanted the Battle of Yonkers myself, or maybe Brad Pitt as that merc hired by the rich guy who broadcast him and his toadies to the world and paid the price.
It’s one of those films (kinda like Jurassic Park) that’s so different from the source material that it’s almost another entity, but still good enough that both entities are great simultaneously.
I've only watched one F&F film. It was the one walker passed away while making and so I wanted to see how it was dealt with. That was the only movie I've seen in theaters that I wanted to walk out of cuz it was so...
Warcraft was a flawlessly executed faithful adaptation of the game of the same name. It's what I always hope for when watching adapted media, they literally took the story straight from the game and made it a movie without bastardising it.
@@origami83 might've helped. I'm still hoping for warcraft 2 and 3 and a show based on WOW where the first season is the base game and every subsequent season are based on the expansions.
Warcraft probably would have worked better as a tv series. Waaay too much happens and the lore is full of great instances of that world, that condensing in a 90min to 2hr movie wouldn’t have done it justice

@@rainbowslushy223 I liked it too, but the ending was anything but a shock... Especially if you listened to any of Kevin's podcasts/interviews leading up to the movie...
Agreed, but he was wrong about more than the ending being a shock. He implied that there were no laughs during the movie, but seeing it in theaters, everyone was laughing through about 75% of it. It was, in my opinion, better than the 2nd Clerks. It was worse than the first, but then again, Clerks is my favorite movie. It's a solid A tier movie.
I enjoyed Ready Player One. Maybe because the references were from my youth. But I liked the hunt for eggs, and figuring out the clues and such. It was fun
I agree, I actually enjoyed it better than the book. Maybe because the book had me rolling my eyes enough already that seeing the spectacle come to life in theaters made it more palatable.
Reloaded is still garbage, that freeway scene is amazing but does not redeem it whatsoever. You're right about the franchise, it should have remained one single legendary movie
I treat the first Matrix as a standalone movie that was groundbreaking and changed the cinema (and game industry as well). However I also treat other 2 movies along with the first as one story that got concluded. I enjoyed the other 2 movies, the history of Hammer fighting it's way home, fight with the machines, rave in this huge chamber of Zion. However I always cringe at the one moment of the last fight of Neo and agent Smith, I cannot unwatch the blow to the face of agent Smith at the end of this fight that is showed in slow motion.
So, Ready Player One "sucks" because... it's "soulless"? No concrete flaws to point out, just a blanket statement that he didn't like the story, and some memebabble about "Hollywood's worst instincts" and it being "barren"? There was nothing wrong with that story, despite whatever this "critique" was supposed to say. Was it an Oscars contender? Of course not. Most films aren't. Was it highly entertaining for its target audience? Absolutely.
Ready Player One was a better book. The problem with the movie is that it doesn’t capture the feeling of the book. Another problem is that it’s an IP dump from a single studio and all the properties they own for the “Easter Eggs” in it. The pacing is also really problematic.
"Movies that suck", to me, indicate a movie that I'd never want to watch again. But a good number of these movies I've watched many times and will enjoy watching again. Are they Oscar level? No. But they are entertaining, and that's what's important with a movie.

Im honestly still waiting for thst ready player one sequel along with alita battle angel honestly both were really excellent movies that deserve sequels
Alita was surprisingly good and definitely deserving of a sequel. Ready Player One was ok but if the sequel was based off of the book Ready Player Two, then no thanks.
@Mattalica-ss9pj I personally haven't read the books but I'd mostly just love a sequel because I love the concept of ready player one and love to see more of the oasis personally
I'm not really waiting for RPO's sequel. I thought the first was decent(I've watched it off and on when it shows up on streaming again), but there is nothing really there to warrant a second. And from what I've heard about the second it seems really like the writer really didn't understand what made the first good.
As a fan of both the book AND the 90's mini-series (Tim Curry will ALWAYS be Pennywise) I thoroughly enjoyed IT Ch 2. It wasn't a faithful adaptation from the book, as a mature adult I'm OK with that and understand why that happens, but it was an enjoyable conclusion to the movies that hit enough of the key beats imho. No film rendition of the end of IT that targets a mainstream audience is EVER going to satisfying King fans.
Both "Chapters" sucked. Muschietti completely missed the themes and the tone of the book - something that the '90s mini-series managed despite being a far more limited production. Setting is wrong, characters are wrong, casting is terrible and the whole thing just wants to be "Stranger Things - the movie for the cinema theater goers". Which is like making a genuine Star Wars movie based on one of the thousands of Star Wars rip-offs - e.g. Battle Beyond the Stars. Hold on... isn't that basically the plot of Rebel Moon? Ultimate capitulation and proof of how BAD the entire Muschietti project was is the fact that after retconing the entire thing to the '80s to appeal to the Stranger Things crowd - NOW they want to make a DAMN PREQUEL retcon TV series set a generation earlier! Which, to bring up a Star Wars metaphor again, is like making prequels to episodes 7-9 by resurrecting and deepfaking dead and elderly actors and shoehorning them into franchises stuck between two trilogies. Take your pick which recent piece of shit fits more. But if one has to be chosen, Chapter 2 is far, FAR worse. From terrible casting which dictated re-imagining of characters and their relations because of star power, constant retcons of the first movie (now with older and taller kids - puberty, how does it work) because character dynamic doesn't fit the new casting, movie's incapability to choose a genre due to casting Bill Hader and letting him dictate the movie through improvisation (because script is shit and writing comedy is HARD) - constantly turning inta a comedy while trying to be both an atmospheric horror AND a jump-scary shlock flick, terrible, TERRIBLE bastardization of themes and missing the point of the book to the point of parody, movie being too busy planting Easter eggs and references to do a proper plot let alone story and theme... To the movie finally literally arguing that violence is the solution to trauma (find you childhood bully and murder him when you grow up kids)... Followed by advertising of suicide for those who are too weak to practice violence and who only weaken the society by their existence. Oh wait... Andy Muschietti is of ITALIAN descent - from Argentina? You don't say!? With ideas like that I would have sworn he was of GERMAN-Argentinian descent. You know... Might makes right, exterminating evil midgets, killing off gays, "the weak one" who would infect others with his weakness just so happens to be the Jew... BTW, did anyone notice how the black guy is way more incompetent and a liar and a thief in this adaptation? His lies almost ruining everything? Maybe his grandfather lied. Then again... Italian fascists had to hide somewhere too. Who knows. All I'm saying is he's clearly a psychopath. It took (me) 2 tries and over 4 hours to watch through the second movie. We constantly had to stop it to have a rant or discussion (with my girlfriend) as we were watching it after revisiting the '90s mini-series. First one I managed in about 2. it is still BAD, but it almost works.
Remember the time when fans were just excited to see a superhero movie and didn't demand they bring anything to the table other than being GOOD and enjoyable? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
I just recently rewatched world war z and I still liked it, especially given the troubled production is impressive. I wish I could say I’m surprised there wasn’t a single marvel movie on here I’m not
I've watched it several times and I liked it every time I've watched it. And the scene when they were searching the lab was very gripping for me (although I'm not a huge horror fan so I don't have many comparisons). But it's not that I don't want to admit it, I just enjoyed this movie and whenever it comes on TV I will watch it because it's a good fun for me.
The BIG problem with World War Z was the title. That was pretty much all it had in common with the excellent book. It was a better than OK zombie movie, but it wasn't WWZ.
It started out really good, a man trying to get his family out of a zombie apocalypse.... It just ended badly. He's sent on a pointless mission when it was obvious what humans should do from the beginning!!! He literally sees multiple sick humans get passed by by the zombies before he ever even leaves his hometown! Yet he has to go to Israel to finally put two and two together?!??!
I agree with all of them except Warcraft. As someone who never knew much about its fiction I enjoyed it, just kinda pissed it was made with CLEAR intentions of a sequel so I feel like we never got the entire story.
@@Terrato.Worzen The lead 'Human' actor (can't remeber his name) was crap, so that didn't help. He seemed to just be playing his character from the Vikings tv series. They also chose the wrong story to start a franchise.
@@Thurgosh_OG I understand why some people might think that, but honestly, he didn't bother me at all. Maybe I expected waaay too little and was greatly surprised.
Personally, I like Lightyear, even if it does clash horribly with the Toy Story movies. It's an enjoyable sci-fi story with some fun characters and an interesting exploration of time dilation (seemingly inspired by the song '39 by Queen).
I was pretty much checked out of Clerks 3 the moment I realized Becky got fridged. Worst thing is the realization that she had to have died like RIGHT after Clerks 2 ended.
I am surprised that Avatar wasn't on here. The one with blue aliens, not the ATLA. Aside from the admittedly beautiful visuals, the story was bad. Acting, not great. And no one wants to say that Avatar was not a good movie. Just an opinion.
Blue beetle didn't suck as much as it had a dated story that would of done well 10 years ago. I never played Warcraft so maybe that's why I liked it lol
Every single point of criticism levelled at Blue Beetle - which I agree with, by the way - fits to a T on Black Panther as well (except for "latino", of course).
I didn't like Black Panther much either, but I think you're forgetting just how bland Blue Beetle was. It's so painfully uninspired, I don't think there's any comparison to BP.
It's not that Black Panther sucked, so much as it really wasn't any of the things that the political hype made it out to be. It was Weekend at Bernie's made out to be Citizen Kane...
Except BP made money and shattered box office numbers for a non summer release when trolls were actively rooting against it. Was the story simply the Lion King retold? If you say so, because audiences *like* well told stories and Blue Beetle wasn't (that's the difference). Also, BP was deeply layered because every scene, costume, music score, etc, told a story (think Christopher Nolan type of nerd levels). There are plenty of breakdown videos you can check out for those things, which justified its Best Picture nomination.
Most of these are universally recognized as being terrible. Have the guts to put Barbie on the list. It’s a cult movie at best. Can’t wait for the complaints about how many Oscars it gets snubbed for. Probably deserves about a 6 out of 10 just because of some of the costuming and social commentary elements. Years from now when the hype wears out, critics will revisit that script and not be afraid to admit how some of those scenes and dialog were just not very good.
Just to counterpoint the Clerks III hate - Jersey Girl and Cop Out. The former having some serious heart and the latter just being fun and dry and thus great for Brits.
I saw that during UK channel 4's launch year in the Worst of Hollywood Friday night series, along with the likes of Godzilla vs The Smog Monster (Hedorah).
World War Z is my all-time favourite zombie flick, and Im a big zombie flick fan. I have no idea what its like compared to the book but I dont care, as I watch movies based on the movie it self, not to compare them to books. Agree with the rest of the list (Clerks 3 is the epitome of cringe).
Cannot agree with Warcraft. Just being able to see those "places" from the game on the big screen was awe inspiring. I only wish it had done better and had started a franchise. GREATLY agree with It 2. I have no idea how that movie could be so bad.
The book is completely different in every way possible than the movie. The movie just took the name and that was all. Please read the book. It reminded me of Ken Burn's PBS American Civil War Documentary Series.
I'm definitely in denial about World War Z so much so that it's actually one of my favorite horror/zombie movies of all time! haha. I love the opening especially. So tense and really sets the stage.
0:42 I am not surprised that Matrix Resurrections was in here? It underperformed and Warner Brothers face multiple lawsuits from the author and original actors for thier bad portrayal of it and in fact, they are facing further multiple class lawsuits and fines for the way it is made. They are facing court starting March 1th 2024 and expected to finish in 2030. Whatever is going on here, it is huge.
I don't agree with several picks. Matrix 4 and the new Indiana Jones were treated as garbage from the start, so almost everybodu admitted that they sucked. And I liked World War Z, I knew nothing about the book, so I didn't have any preconceived notions.
I liked ready player one when i saw it, but ye everyone just forgot about it almost immediately. It just didnt have anything very memorable to be memed or referenced for years after. and kind of predicted the current trend of exploiting nostalgia to get people to love it.
What do you mean nobody wants to admit these suck? All of these are in at least one TH-cam video of "why woke movies are terrible", or "why the left can't make good movies", look up "critical drinker " or matt walsh.
Blue Beetle had a terrible villain but was otherwise a fun movie. Ready Player One while not hitting the mark it could have, was still an enjoyable movie. WWZ was ok until the ending where it went off the rails, but still isn't "bad." The rest of the movies on the list, yeah, pretty much suck.
Yup, matrix should have had NO sequels. Blue Beetle was not s superhero movie. It was a soap opera with a sort of superhero. Ready player one was forgettable. I remember watching "Ready Player One", but that's it.
Have not read the book. I love the movie so i bought the movie on google play and amazon prime. I love the premiss of the Oasis. Where you can look like anyone and or anything and that you could change the avatar. My avatar would always carry a towel. But it would be fun to know more in terms of the economy and where you step into the Oasis. Also how IOI would fit into and trying to take over it.
I think most people would actually say the majority of the films on this list did actually suck. But no way are Warcraft, Ready Player One and WWZ bad movies.
But they literally all were complete fauilers. ESPECIALLY Warcraft and ready player 1 those did so bad it nealry bankrupted their respected studios. Just because you think they’re good does not mean they were successful in any regard.
World War Z is not that bad a movie. Ignore the fact that it has nothing to do with the book and watched as a zombie movie in its own right then it's not that bad. Certainly not in the top 10 of such movies but not in the bottom 10 either. It only seems to stand out as a bad movie due to its production cost and Brad Pitt's starring role.
Eight out of ten. I didn't mind Warcraft (maybe I was in the mood) and with Z, I never read the book, which they say is brilliant, but Brad is a talented and watchable star, so it's a pass.
"Ready Player One" was a much better book than movie. Still, it had major plot holes. For starters: hard core gamers wouldn't try to go off-track (backwards) in a car racing game for a full year?
Clerks III hits a little different if you're pushing 50. I'm not going to say it was the best entry, as obviously the second one was, but it is a solid ending.
Rustin is not a bad film. Sure, it didn't go as in depth on it's lead or the supporting characters, but it told it's surface story well and Coleman was still amazing.
Blue Beetle was incredibly important for Hispanic/Latin culture. Having representation in the superhero world was amazing to see. Being Hispanic, I felt a lot of the heart and humor of the movie was based on specific cultural references, inside jokes if you will, that may go over a lot of people's head. It's not a movie that will connect with everyone because it wasn't made for everyone.
What you on about, there’s only one Matrix movie. Warcraft was atrocious, surprised anyone enjoyed it. If they just made it about the orcs it’d have been fine but any scene with a human was wooden and cringe worthy.
Almost all of these movies were disliked from the get-go, I guess titling a video 'let's take an extra dunk on these flawed movies' just wouldn't generate as many clicks.
IT Chapter Two was already weaker than the first part, but I still liked it. In my opinion, Ready Player One is a brilliant film that I can watch more often. No, I haven't read the book, and yes I'm aware that it's probably better. I actually really liked World War Z. But of course it's all a matter of taste
Yeah, I just think WhatCulture doesn't actually like movies. Most of these movies are fun watches if you aren't gonna nitpick the hell out of them. The only movie I'll actually agree with on this is is World War Z. That movie was garbage and should have just had a generic zombie movie name.
Everyone I know hated Matrix and World War Z, Ready Player One is bad when compared to the book but the book had such a narrow target audience that it only made sense to broaden the appeal.
I find IT Chapter Two to be the most underrated movie of 2019. the near 3 hr runtime is earned and the cast is all great and the story is investing sure the scares aren’t as good as the first film but it concludes the story really well. I also liked Bill’s arc on getting over Georgie’s death and coming to terms with the fact that Georgie is gone and Stephen King’s cameo appearance was a highlight. Andy Muschietti did a great job concluding IT
For years, I've been trying to tell people that "Ready Player One" sucks, but all i hear is "but, but god emperor Spielberg directed it, so it must be good, we are just too stupid to see it."
WW Z sucked like a 5 dollar hooker. Dial of Destiny was a study in aging. I am 70 and Indy is lost in history and regret. You have to have a perspective that only age brings to get it. When he is on the wall climbing and catalogs why he shouldn’t be you are hearing a man who didn’t have time to build a comfortable old age .. Not a great movie, not a good action movie. But I enjoyed it..
Matrix Resurrections was so painful to watch, not even counting the whole scene that goes over what even the original was about, what was really heartbreaking was how weak they made Neo. That force push motion they use sooooo much in the movie in lieu of any good choreographed action, if you take away the lil force wave that shoots out, it is just our beloved Keanu Reeves flinching from every attack and the enemy just flying away. That constant visual of Neo just putting his hands up haphazardly to just shoot out a shockwave every which way made Neo seem like he was fearful of getting a paper cut.
The problem with Lightyear is that it doesn't look or feel like a movie that would have been a summer blockbuster in 1995. If it were, it would have been a fun & action-packed adventure story, & there certainly wouldn't have been a lesbian kiss (unless it was done as a joke or sex appeal with two highly attractive actresses).

The Matrix is a good example of a franchise that didn't need to be a franchise since each sequel film was worse than the film before it.

Nothing wrong with John Wick of course, but they could have got Keanu to look a bit different.
Reloaded is still garbage, that freeway scene is amazing but does not redeem it whatsoever. You're right about the franchise, it should have remained one single legendary movie
I treat the first Matrix as a standalone movie that was groundbreaking and changed the cinema (and game industry as well). However I also treat other 2 movies along with the first as one story that got concluded. I enjoyed the other 2 movies, the history of Hammer fighting it's way home, fight with the machines, rave in this huge chamber of Zion.

It wasn't a faithful adaptation from the book, as a mature adult I'm OK with that and understand why that happens, but it was an enjoyable conclusion to the movies that hit enough of the key beats imho. No film rendition of the end of IT that targets a mainstream audience is EVER going to satisfying King fans.
Both "Chapters" sucked. Muschietti completely missed the themes and the tone of the book - something that the '90s mini-series managed despite being a far more limited production.
Setting is wrong, characters are wrong, casting is terrible and the whole thing just wants to be "Stranger Things - the movie for the cinema theater goers".
Which is like making a genuine Star Wars movie based on one of the thousands of Star Wars rip-offs - e.g. Battle Beyond the Stars. Hold on... isn't that basically the plot of Rebel Moon?
Ultimate capitulation and proof of how BAD the entire Muschietti project was is the fact that after retconing the entire thing to the '80s to appeal to the Stranger Things crowd - NOW they want to make a DAMN PREQUEL retcon TV series set a generation earlier!
Which, to bring up a Star Wars metaphor again, is like making prequels to episodes 7-9 by resurrecting and deepfaking dead and elderly actors and shoehorning them into franchises stuck between two trilogies. Take your pick which recent piece of shit fits more.
But if one has to be chosen, Chapter 2 is far, FAR worse.
From terrible casting which dictated re-imagining of characters and their relations because of star power, constant retcons of the first movie (now with older and taller kids - puberty, how does it work) because character dynamic doesn't fit the new casting, movie's incapability to choose a genre due to casting Bill Hader and letting him dictate the movie through improvisation (because script is shit and writing comedy is HARD) - constantly turning inta a comedy while trying to be both an atmospheric horror AND a jump-scary shlock flick, terrible, TERRIBLE bastardization of themes and missing the point of the book to the point of parody, movie being too busy planting Easter eggs and references to do a proper plot let alone story and theme...
To the movie finally literally arguing that violence is the solution to trauma (find you childhood bully and murder him when you grow up kids)...
Followed by advertising of suicide for those who are too weak to practice violence and who only weaken the society by their existence. Oh wait... Andy Muschietti is of ITALIAN descent - from Argentina? You don't say!?
With ideas like that I would have sworn he was of GERMAN-Argentinian descent.
You know... Might makes right, exterminating evil midgets, killing off gays, "the weak one" who would infect others with his weakness just so happens to be the Jew... BTW, did anyone notice how the black guy is way more incompetent and a liar and a thief in this adaptation? His lies almost ruining everything?
Maybe his grandfather lied. Then again... Italian fascists had to hide somewhere too. Who knows. All I'm saying is he's clearly a psychopath.
It took (me) 2 tries and over 4 hours to watch through the second movie. We constantly had to stop it to have a rant or discussion (with my girlfriend) as we were watching it after revisiting the '90s mini-series.
First one I managed in about 2. it is still BAD, but it almost works.
@@d3nza482you do realise Stephen king was massively involved in the two movies and nearly all changes were his choice.
Agree with all but “Ready Player One”. I recently rewatched with the kiddos and I gotta say it was better than I remembered.
I liked it
Remember the time when fans were just excited to see a superhero movie and didn't demand they bring anything to the table other than being GOOD and enjoyable?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
People want to hate movies now.
I just recently rewatched world war z and I still liked it, especially given the troubled production is impressive. I wish I could say I’m surprised there wasn’t a single marvel movie on here I’m not
@@pamusso1466 I will say I didn’t read the source material and I knew about the production issues so my bar was low from the start haha
I've watched it several times and I liked it every time I've watched it. And the scene when they were searching the lab was very gripping for me (although I'm not a huge horror fan so I don't have many comparisons). But it's not that I don't want to admit it, I just enjoyed this movie and whenever it comes on TV I will watch it because it's a good fun for me.
The BIG problem with World War Z was the title. That was pretty much all it had in common with the excellent book. It was a better than OK zombie movie, but it wasn't WWZ.
world war z was good, but the final act was boring.
It started out really good, a man trying to get his family out of a zombie apocalypse....
It just ended badly. He's sent on a pointless mission when it was obvious what humans should do from the beginning!!! He literally sees multiple sick humans get passed by by the zombies before he ever even leaves his hometown! Yet he has to go to Israel to finally put two and two together?!??!
I agree with all of them except Warcraft. As someone who never knew much about its fiction I enjoyed it, just kinda pissed it was made with CLEAR intentions of a sequel so I feel like we never got the entire story.
I have to agree. I feel like this could've done a lot of great as a movie series! It even got me to check out Warcraft lore!
That movie is amazing indeed. I've watched it many times and I enjoy it a lot. It's sad that people didn't like it so we'll never get a sequel...
@@Terrato.Worzen The lead 'Human' actor (can't remeber his name) was crap, so that didn't help. He seemed to just be playing his character from the Vikings tv series. They also chose the wrong story to start a franchise.
@@Thurgosh_OG I understand why some people might think that, but honestly, he didn't bother me at all. Maybe I expected waaay too little and was greatly surprised.
World War Z should not be on this list. Thought it was awesome, with many memorable scenes. And it exists in an unrated cut.
Personally, I like Lightyear, even if it does clash horribly with the Toy Story movies. It's an enjoyable sci-fi story with some fun characters and an interesting exploration of time dilation (seemingly inspired by the song '39 by Queen).
I was pretty much checked out of Clerks 3 the moment I realized Becky got fridged. Worst thing is the realization that she had to have died like RIGHT after Clerks 2 ended.
I am surprised that Avatar wasn't on here. The one with blue aliens, not the ATLA. Aside from the admittedly beautiful visuals, the story was bad. Acting, not great.
And no one wants to say that Avatar was not a good movie. Just an opinion.
everyone i know thinks Avatar was bad lol; some of them appreciate the visuals though
Blue beetle didn't suck as much as it had a dated story that would of done well 10 years ago. I never played Warcraft so maybe that's why I liked it lol
Every single point of criticism levelled at Blue Beetle - which I agree with, by the way - fits to a T on Black Panther as well (except for "latino", of course).
I didn't like Black Panther much either, but I think you're forgetting just how bland Blue Beetle was. It's so painfully uninspired, I don't think there's any comparison to BP.
I too felt critics over praised Black Panther … pretty formulaic superhero story with a Simba/Scar subplot
It's not that Black Panther sucked, so much as it really wasn't any of the things that the political hype made it out to be. It was Weekend at Bernie's made out to be Citizen Kane...
Yeah, but Black Panther didn't have Abuela The Secret Revolutionary in it. Her character alone is worth watching Blue Beetle.
Except BP made money and shattered box office numbers for a non summer release when trolls were actively rooting against it.
Was the story simply the Lion King retold? If you say so, because audiences *like* well told stories and Blue Beetle wasn't (that's the difference).
Also, BP was deeply layered because every scene, costume, music score, etc, told a story (think Christopher Nolan type of nerd levels).
There are plenty of breakdown videos you can check out for those things, which justified its Best Picture nomination.
Most of these are universally recognized as being terrible. Have the guts to put Barbie on the list. It’s a cult movie at best. Can’t wait for the complaints about how many Oscars it gets snubbed for. Probably deserves about a 6 out of 10 just because of some of the costuming and social commentary elements. Years from now when the hype wears out, critics will revisit that script and not be afraid to admit how some of those scenes and dialog were just not very good.
What about the opposite idea. What movie do critics not want to admit to liking? I'll go first: John Carter of Mars.
A film I have watched twice and fully enjoyed each time. I do watch it in 3D so that's one reason.
Just to counterpoint the Clerks III hate - Jersey Girl and Cop Out. The former having some serious heart and the latter just being fun and dry and thus great for Brits.
Many of the movies in this list was admonished by real fans immediately. Almost the only ones praising them were so-called "critics"
In what universe do people refuse to admit these movies suck?
Blind matrix fans really tried to act like resurrection wasn’t bad at least closer to the release
I enjoyed WWZ , ready player 1 and warcraft.....
I rewatched all of them in 2023 and still enjoyed it
"Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is the worst movie ever made. I love it!
"Hooray for Santy Claus" 😂 That movie's an annual tradition in my house, lol
@@martinboyle9163 Not Natalie Wood. Pia Zadora. Natalie Wood was in "Miracle on 34th St."
Now i want to see it...
I saw that during UK channel 4's launch year in the Worst of Hollywood Friday night series, along with the likes of Godzilla vs The Smog Monster (Hedorah).
oh no, there's MUCH worse out there. Go check out ed wood jrs "Glen or Glenda".
World War Z is my all-time favourite zombie flick, and Im a big zombie flick fan. I have no idea what its like compared to the book but I dont care, as I watch movies based on the movie it self, not to compare them to books. Agree with the rest of the list (Clerks 3 is the epitome of cringe).
Cannot agree with Warcraft. Just being able to see those "places" from the game on the big screen was awe inspiring. I only wish it had done better and had started a franchise. GREATLY agree with It 2. I have no idea how that movie could be so bad.
World war Z was good are y’all serious. Saw it in the theater our audience was invested
The book is completely different in every way possible than the movie. The movie just took the name and that was all. Please read the book. It reminded me of Ken Burn's PBS American Civil War Documentary Series.
@ wasn’t arguing if it was accurate to its literary counterpart I was saying casual audience enjoyed it.
I'm definitely in denial about World War Z so much so that it's actually one of my favorite horror/zombie movies of all time! haha. I love the opening especially. So tense and really sets the stage.
I have yet to meet a human being inhibited in the opinion that Matrix Resurrections did anything but suck.
I always got 'fell asleep doing my homework and clambering to get it done' vibes from IT Chapter 2.
Then you don't know what a good sequel is, idiot.
A handful of people only thought blue beetle was even stomachable. Everyone thought it was awful.
I completely agree with this list!... except for World War Z. This film is excellent. One of the best zombie movies of recent years.
Agree with all of these films apart from Ready player one. It's a popcorn film - simple....and I've read the source material.
Maybe I'm an outlier with Blue Beetle
But I really enjoyed it
Warcraft was a great movie, made with passion and love. Shame to see it on such an unpleasant list.
That movie while it looked good it’s plot and character acting sucked
Ready Player One doesn't deserve to be on this list, it wasn't for everyone, but my friends and I loved it.
Your friends and you suck balls
Lightyear wasn't the movie that Andy watched, it was the in universe "real life" events that inspired them to make a movie and action figures.
Man I loved Warcraft the movie lol
I actually love WWZ.
Ready Player One was a great film.
I’m glad you liked it.
I sure as hell didn’t 👎🏾
I’m ngl it took me like 4 times to actually watch it and finish it, but I liked it
Ready Player One sucked and so did the book
I haven't heard of most of these films, but my family saw Lightyear at the cinema and loved it!
I loved Ready Player One. It is one of my go to movies.
Mine as well, but I will concede it's somewhat of a guilty pleasure. The movie sure has its flaws.
0:42 I am not surprised that Matrix Resurrections was in here? It underperformed and Warner Brothers face multiple lawsuits from the author and original actors for thier bad portrayal of it and in fact, they are facing further multiple class lawsuits and fines for the way it is made. They are facing court starting March 1th 2024 and expected to finish in 2030. Whatever is going on here, it is huge.
IT 2 and Ready Player One were awesome. Especially in theaters. Get outta here man. Who wrote this list? Jack Pooley?
I don't agree with several picks. Matrix 4 and the new Indiana Jones were treated as garbage from the start, so almost everybodu admitted that they sucked. And I liked World War Z, I knew nothing about the book, so I didn't have any preconceived notions.
I liked ready player one when i saw it, but ye everyone just forgot about it almost immediately. It just didnt have anything very memorable to be memed or referenced for years after. and kind of predicted the current trend of exploiting nostalgia to get people to love it.
What do you mean nobody wants to admit these suck? All of these are in at least one TH-cam video of "why woke movies are terrible", or "why the left can't make good movies", look up "critical drinker " or matt walsh.
Clerks III was so much fun. Hard disagree here. It had some great full circle moments for the characters.
Blue Beetle had a terrible villain but was otherwise a fun movie. Ready Player One while not hitting the mark it could have, was still an enjoyable movie. WWZ was ok until the ending where it went off the rails, but still isn't "bad." The rest of the movies on the list, yeah, pretty much suck.
That's just a list of films everybody thought sucked upon release.😂😂😂
Yup, matrix should have had NO sequels.
Blue Beetle was not s superhero movie. It was a soap opera with a sort of superhero.
Ready player one was forgettable. I remember watching "Ready Player One", but that's it.
I love the Ready Player One book and though it went a different route, I love the movie too!!
Have not read the book. I love the movie so i bought the movie on google play and amazon prime. I love the premiss of the Oasis. Where you can look like anyone and or anything and that you could change the avatar. My avatar would always carry a towel. But it would be fun to know more in terms of the economy and where you step into the Oasis. Also how IOI would fit into and trying to take over it.
None of the Ghostbuster reboots are worth a hoot.
Even "Ghostbusters 2" sucked.
Well that’s cuz Ghostbusters sucks.
I think most people would actually say the majority of the films on this list did actually suck. But no way are Warcraft, Ready Player One and WWZ bad movies.
But they literally all were complete fauilers. ESPECIALLY Warcraft and ready player 1 those did so bad it nealry bankrupted their respected studios. Just because you think they’re good does not mean they were successful in any regard.
Also WWZ was so bad that the author hated and sued the studio and bought the rights to the IP so it could never be made that bad again
Haven't seen WWZ, but I agree about Warcraft and Ready Player One - though Warcraft didn't live up to its potential, it was still not bad.
World War Z is not that bad a movie. Ignore the fact that it has nothing to do with the book and watched as a zombie movie in its own right then it's not that bad. Certainly not in the top 10 of such movies but not in the bottom 10 either. It only seems to stand out as a bad movie due to its production cost and Brad Pitt's starring role.
hereditary . everyone acts like its amazing but i was boring and un engaging
THANK YOU. I didn't like it at all and people are always shocked and offended. (I also don't get the love for It Follows...)
Who's in denial on most of these?
ready player one and world war z are great movies
Eight out of ten. I didn't mind Warcraft (maybe I was in the mood) and with Z, I never read the book, which they say is brilliant, but Brad is a talented and watchable star, so it's a pass.
Wow, you hit this one out of the ball park! Agree with you on every one of these.
"Ready Player One" was a much better book than movie. Still, it had major plot holes. For starters: hard core gamers wouldn't try to go off-track (backwards) in a car racing game for a full year?
Clerks III hits a little different if you're pushing 50. I'm not going to say it was the best entry, as obviously the second one was, but it is a solid ending.
Yeah, I enjoyed clerks 3, it was by no means perfect but it had heart (ironically)…
I agree
Rustin is not a bad film. Sure, it didn't go as in depth on it's lead or the supporting characters, but it told it's surface story well and Coleman was still amazing.
I was going to comment this, but you articulated my thoughts. Rustin was good enough.
Blue Beetle was incredibly important for Hispanic/Latin culture. Having representation in the superhero world was amazing to see. Being Hispanic, I felt a lot of the heart and humor of the movie was based on specific cultural references, inside jokes if you will, that may go over a lot of people's head. It's not a movie that will connect with everyone because it wasn't made for everyone.
I loved Blue Beetle. It had all sorts of heart and great characters. Dunno what this guy was complaining about.
What you on about, there’s only one Matrix movie.
Warcraft was atrocious, surprised anyone enjoyed it. If they just made it about the orcs it’d have been fine but any scene with a human was wooden and cringe worthy.
Almost all of these movies were disliked from the get-go, I guess titling a video 'let's take an extra dunk on these flawed movies' just wouldn't generate as many clicks.
"10 movies that everyone forgot existed before they even left theatres."
The Sopranos prequel was so terrible that people thougth it
was intentional/sabotage.
I loved Clerks 3.
IT Chapter Two was already weaker than the first part, but I still liked it.
In my opinion, Ready Player One is a brilliant film that I can watch more often. No, I haven't read the book, and yes I'm aware that it's probably better.
I actually really liked World War Z.
But of course it's all a matter of taste
Ready Player One was a good film. Maybe you have to be a certain age to love the nostalgia. You should watch Ben 10 or something.
I find It hard to believe none of the star wars sequels made it on to the list
Not really. They would probably be on a list of movies no one wants to admit they enjoy.
Clerks 3 was amazing and sad
Yeah, I just think WhatCulture doesn't actually like movies. Most of these movies are fun watches if you aren't gonna nitpick the hell out of them. The only movie I'll actually agree with on this is is World War Z. That movie was garbage and should have just had a generic zombie movie name.
Everyone I know hated Matrix and World War Z, Ready Player One is bad when compared to the book but the book had such a narrow target audience that it only made sense to broaden the appeal.
I could appreciate that if they had the courage to change the title too.
Seems like they're just mislabeled products to trick the unwary public
Yeah but see, I had no issues calling most of these movies bad immediately upon release
most of this list are good movies that whoever wrote this didn’t like!!!
The Matrix films were all pretty good.
I find IT Chapter Two to be the most underrated movie of 2019. the near 3 hr runtime is earned and the cast is all great and the story is investing sure the scares aren’t as good as the first film but it concludes the story really well. I also liked Bill’s arc on getting over Georgie’s death and coming to terms with the fact that Georgie is gone and Stephen King’s cameo appearance was a highlight. Andy Muschietti did a great job concluding IT
I completely agree! It did a good job of wrapping up the story.
I loved It Chapter 2!
Everyone's choices are different.
For years, I've been trying to tell people that "Ready Player One" sucks, but all i hear is "but, but god emperor Spielberg directed it, so it must be good, we are just too stupid to see it."
2:54 Sorry guys... Blue Beetle was the BEST DC flick in ages. And I definitely thought it would suck a hot one.
WW Z sucked like a 5 dollar hooker.
Dial of Destiny was a study in aging. I am 70 and Indy is lost in history and regret. You have to have a perspective that only age brings to get it.
When he is on the wall climbing and catalogs why he shouldn’t be you are hearing a man who didn’t have time to build a comfortable old age ..
Not a great movie, not a good action movie. But I enjoyed it..
The Star Wars New Hope remake from 2015 and the recent Prey Predator 5.
Hey, the fans wanted Luke, Leia and Han back.
They got their wish.
@nicksterj I also want a million dollars handed to me by a bikini model, but we don't always get what we want.
The Matrix Resurrections?? That was a one movie series. I don't think anyone ever expected Lightyear to be good. World War Z was boring.
I loved clerks 3 ❤
Matrix Resurrections was so painful to watch, not even counting the whole scene that goes over what even the original was about, what was really heartbreaking was how weak they made Neo. That force push motion they use sooooo much in the movie in lieu of any good choreographed action, if you take away the lil force wave that shoots out, it is just our beloved Keanu Reeves flinching from every attack and the enemy just flying away.
That constant visual of Neo just putting his hands up haphazardly to just shoot out a shockwave every which way made Neo seem like he was fearful of getting a paper cut.
The problem with Lightyear is that it doesn't look or feel like a movie that would have been a summer blockbuster in 1995. If it were, it would have been a fun & action-packed adventure story, & there certainly wouldn't have been a lesbian kiss (unless it was done as a joke or sex appeal with two highly attractive actresses).
Even less a movie that a kid Andy's age would have become obsessed with.
Big mistake was Tim Allen not voicing him.
