We just had finished a best of list for the 90's, so why not take the time to recongize the worst films that came out during that decade?  Let's start of with what easily is the worst film from that decade:

1. Pocket Ninjas

There is no need to explain this film (Outside of the fact that this company also made Future War).  Let these clips answer why it is so bad:

Hmmmmmm...

2.  Home Alone (1990)

Reguardless for being a "big box office hit" I still cannot believe:

a) the parents can forget 1 child... Forgetting a toothbrush, the keys or even your wallet isnt the same as forgetting a child.

b) two adults are that stupid.

c) The police are that helpless.

d) And the millions of movies that copied the HOME ALONE formula... from Problem Child to Phantom Menace (both movies should be included on the list)

3. The Assassin/ Point of no Return (US/1993)


It's utterly pointless.
I saw a review and it said it was like watching Nikita being put through the washing machine and all the cool gritty bits where taken out to make a bland Hollywood flick.
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.

wow... such a good point! I've also seen Nikita first and thought Point of No Return might be better (at least Bridget Fonda looked sexy) but I've remember hating the film because it seemed too fake and in the end I didnt care for Fonda's character... La Femme Nikita seemed believable because Anne Parillaud really looked like she was addicted to crack and the assassination training also help clean her into a beautiful girl. It also made more sense to me because it was a French film and you could believe that the French could turn crackheads into assassins...

Great Pick!!!

4. The Legend of the Titanic (1999)

Saying that this movie is bad would be too nice or saying this movie was horrible would be a compliant.  This movie is pure s**t and it is simply the animated equal to Manos: The Hands of Fate.  If you don't believe me, read my review on it.  I back up my claims quite well:

Hell, don't believe me still?  Watch the movie!

LOL that was a good review, infogeek!  Legend of the Titanic is almost Richard Kelly-ish in its awful weirdness.

5.) NORTH
The wasted talent on display in this movie is absolutely stunning, as is the horrific stereotypical attempts at humor.  It's hard to believe the same guy who directed The Princess Bride and When Harry Met Sally could have thought this was a good project.

The nutty professor. I think it was nothing but hate speech against overweight people and really no different that having a white actor put on blackface and act in a grossly offensive stereotypical manner. It was hate speech directed against an "acceptable" target.

Austin powers. A character called "fat bastard" is pretty hateful. I wonder how many overweight school kids had "fat bastard!" chanted at them by other kids because of that damn movie.

Eddie murphy and mike myers can both rot in hell, AFAIC.

lol... Phat Girlz (2006) is the worst movie about fat people... its a comedy that'll make you hang yourself before it gets to the ending (It's also on my top ten worst films ever made list)

Note: you need to place a number by the film title...

6. The nutty professor


Speaking of my top ten list of worst films ever made...

7. Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999)... A victim of the Home Alone syndrome... First I need to ask... Who is the target audience? It sure wasnt the Fans. (the movie was a slap in the face) and It sure wasnt the children (the politics goes over the heads of kids)... Who?

Second... Why was baby vader's mother still a slave? Really, Queen Amidala owes baby vader for the race, but most importantly... she owes him for SAVING HER PLANET FROM THE ARMY OF ROBOTS. Also it seems out of her character for not freeing baby vaders mother.

Do I need to talk about Jar Jar or that baby vader has made c3-po or the romance between baby vader and amidala...

There many things I can forgive in a "bad" movie but I cannot forgive a filmmaker that waited 20+ years to give a movie thats just crap!

9. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope... Not the 1977 movie! But the 1997 digital remaster version with *Greedo Shooting first and Han walking over Jaba* wow...

The picture above expresses my feelings!

:question:  You are putting the digital remaster movie on this list just for that?  Sounds like you are an extremely big fanboy of Star Wars and if anything if done to the series you hold you high, you'll explode.

Besides, the film shouldn't count because even if some parts were changed and the film was remastered, the film first came out in the 70's and it is still a film from that decade no matter how they changed it.  It is like saying Beauty and the Beast is a 2010s era film because they are going to rerelease it into the theaters next year.

Finally, even with these small changes in the digital remaster edition, that is still a great film and doesn't even hold even candle in the amount of crap that this next film has.  Hell, if you thought Star Wars Episode I f****d up a franchise, you ain't see nothing:

10. Highlander 2: The Quickening

As an Internet reviewer pointed out, on the back of the VHS box it says that Highlander 2 is the smartest sci-fi movie since Blade Runner.  That makes me want to find that person who came up with that line and punch in the face.

lol... I'm calling it as I see it.

I'm against the idea of remastering any movie in such a way that alters the original content of the film. To me its a sick attempt to rewrite history. Especially when a movie has been considered High Historical Importance years before.

This has nothing to do about "fanboy."

It's kind of like somebody colorizing Raging Bull (1980) or Schindler's List (1993), or complying with PETA and removing the horse's head from The Godfather (1972), or adding a techno beat to the Wizards of Oz (1939).

If we are only talking about fixing the clearity of the film because of age I would agree. But the 1997 remaster version is a sick attempt to update the story so it would work with the prequels.

11. STRIPTEASE



Makes SHOWGIRLS look like CITIZEN KANE.  Demi's new rock-hard boobs look like they could put out an eye.
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...

This is one of my favourites. And not in an 'ironic' way. I really do like it and love the book too.  :bluesad:
Please love this film like I do and ignore Demi's strange breasts. Actually, just ignore Demi altogether and you'll find a lot to like about this. I hope.
