Off the top of my head in no particular order:


Star Wars ( 4, 5, 6)
Million Dollar Baby

Mainstream films that everybody thought were so great but really sucked.
What? Worst movies of all time?
Have you ever seen Eegah?
Or Oasis of the zombies?
The old Star wars trilogy are classics!
What is so bad about it?

When I think of "worst movies" I really don't consider low/no budget cheezefests because they're already at a loss. I consider atrocities created with decent budgets, real actors, directors and crews that supposedly know what they're doing.

So, Return of the Jedi is indeed a worse film than Eegah because The creators of Eegah did the best they could with what they had whereas Lucas and co. had everything they could want and still churned out a lump of crap.
I have to disagree.
First of all, Eegah was made mainly because Arch Hall Sr. wanted to help his son get into the music business. Whereas Lucas had a vision that he wanted to see on film.
He succeded in creating a whole universe, with imaginative creatures, the force, and all the other stuff.
But what I really want to know, is why do you think that Star wars is the worst movie ever made?
Or the Million dollar baby?
The acting?
The script?
What?

Wait a minuet, are we doing "so-bad-they're-good", or so "bad-they're-Hell"?

The latter is technically worse, so that's what I went with.

Epic Movie is so-bad-it's-good. How can you not like the dumb jokes in it??

Hmm the movie that would most likely be the worst would be one so boring, so repetitive, so dull, so overlong, most would likely forget they ever saw it if they even got part of the way through it. There's certainly got to be boring 3-hour epics out there that fit this description (pretty sure they did one on WAR OF THE WORLDS in fact). Certainly names like Jerry Warren, Andy Milligan and Larry Buchanan deserve mention here too.

The Worst movie ever has got to be Troy. And not even in a so-bad-it's-good or so-bad-it's-charming way, but in a so-bad-it's-not-even-worth-watching way.

Yeah, I can honestly say that it's the worst movie I've ever seen in my entire life. It's worse than D-Wars and Dungeons and Dragons (and they're pretty bad in the bad way, too).

Arch Hall Sr and Lucas both had a vision. So Hall made Eegah and Lucas made star Wars. Both movies are fun.

Star Wars 1 & 2 (New Hope and Empire) were great. Empire is in my favorite stack. But everything after that was crap  to milk the cash cow.

If you're going to make a movie about a girl boxer, don't turn it into a sermon on how if you think someone's life sucks, you should kill them.

Sorry, didn't like 'em. Didn't like Avatar either.

THE RATS ARE COMING! THE WEREWOLVES ARE HERE!
REDNECK ZOMBIES
MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE


ZOMBIE STRIPPERS was pretty painfully bad, but not quite "Worst of all time" bad. 

Personally, I really hate the phrase "Worst movie of all time" because I feel like it's so damned overused.  I've heard so many people describe any movie they dislike as "the worst movie ever."

Okay. If you don't like them, that's fine. I just don't think that they are the WORST movies ever made.
And yeah, the "new" trilogy shouldn't exist. It's horrible.

As for Avatar, I don't know, I haven't seen it.

skuts

There are those movies (the majority) that suffer from bad acting, poor direction, horrible music and dialog that were made by totally incompetent people and even those that should know better.



But the the worse movies (IMHO) are those pretentious pieces of s**t that get made with giant budgets, big name directors and/or stars and pushed on audiences as the latest and greatest when all they are are pointless pieces of crap or public masturbation. Avatar falls right into that category.

I agree Saucerman. 

On a similar note, It seems to me that no one movie will ever be the worst.
Also, I feel that the worst movies are those that are just plain boring.

This is because a movie should do one or more of the following:

1. entertain

2. provoke/stimulate thought

3. educate

4. provoke/stimulate emotion

If anybody thinks of something else, please let me know!

Totally agree, especially due to the reliance on CGI also.
