oh come on what the heck happened
welcome to watchmojo.com Ovie's that
were extremely hyped before release
thanks to their franchises history and
the legacy of its characters we aren't
seeing that all of these movies are
terrible hobos some certainly are we're
just saying that they were massive let
downs after the incredible hype that
preceded their release if you like what
you're hearing be sure to check out the
full song at the link below
[Music]
number 10 terminator dark fate I can't
fight it if I don't know what we're up
against it's a revenue model you don't
fight it
you run from it oh how silly we were to
put our hope in dark fate let's be
honest the Terminator series has been on
the decline since 1991 and despite the
abomination that was Genesis we held out
hope for dark fate thanks to two things
or should we say names Linda Hamilton
and James Cameron I'll be back
[Music]
both were returning to the series for
the first time since t2 and dark fate
was serving as a continuation of that
story in other words it was doing the
same ignore all the sequels thing that
Halloween did the previous year touching
story does it have a point only dark
fate wasn't nearly as successful dark
fate was just another mediocre
Terminator sequel and by this point we
should just terminate this franchise
altogether number nine solo a Star Wars
story Disney's track record with Star
Wars has been hit and miss but they
really dropped the ball with solo this
is unbelievable I'm definitely gonna
have some words with someone about this
coming out on the heels of the force
awakens rogue one in the last Jedi
audiences were starting to experience
franchise overload by the time solo hit
theaters the divisive response towards
the last Jedi certainly did not help
nevertheless this thing should have been
a cinematic event lawrence kasdan was
returning Phil Lord and Christopher
Miller were directing it had an amazing
cast and it told the origin story of an
iconic movie character however the movie
suffered a rocky production most notably
switching out directors and the quality
greatly suffered alright save energy
I'm gonna it ended up grossing an
abysmal 393 million dollars less than
last Jedi's opening weekend number 8 The
Last Airbender avatar fans still have
nightmares about the last airbender one
had a vision at the southern air temple
prayer field he talked to a dragon
spirit who he thinks can help us he
thinks if he goes to another spiritual
place he can get back to the spirit
world I don't think that's a good idea
avatar is a beloved animated series both
enormous ly popular and the winner of
various prestigious award
including five auntie's an Emmy and a
Peabody
then we heard that M night Shyamalan was
directing a movie adaptation and
everyone let out a collective groan that
could be heard the world over my
grandmother will ask you a lot of
questions still Michael Dante DiMartino
and Bryan Kinetico crafted such a
phenomenal series surely some of the
show's drama comedy and excitement would
find its way into this adaptation right
alas The Last Airbender is notoriously
awful it's one of those movies you
probably haven't seen but you just know
it's terrible thanks to pop culture
osmosis okay everybody
number seven Suicide Squad despite two
prior disappointments in the DC EU more
on that in a bit we held out hope for
Suicide Squad after all this was
something different that's it what we
some kind of Suicide Squad in the midst
of the MCU phenomenon here was a
superhero movie about anti-heroes yeah
had Deadshot the Joker and Harley Quinn
three beloved comic book characters who
were being played by acclaimed and
popular actors it could have been the
DCE use twisted answer to the Avengers
but it was an embarrassing dud seriously
the hell's wrong with you people bad
guys it's what we do the movie was
horribly directed Jared Leto made a
terrible Joker and the mean is created
from the movie quickly became more
popular than the movie itself it was yet
another sore spot in the DCE you know
you left me in a black hole of rage and
confusion number six the Matrix Reloaded
and the Matrix Revolutions your life is
the sum of a remainder of an unbalanced
equation inherent to the programming of
the matrix you are the eventualities of
an anomaly which despite my sincerest
efforts I have been unable to eliminate
from what is otherwise a harmony of
mathematical precision here we have
Exhibit A in unnecessary sequels
tarnishing the legacy of a franchise The
Matrix is undeniably one of the best
most inventive and
influential action films ever made while
reloaded wasn't a bad sequel per se it
was disappointing
what with the ps2 esque CGI and bowling
pins sound effects the real travesty is
revolutions a movie that even the
reloaded fans have trouble defending
this was nothing but a soulless
confusing CGI filled spectacle and a
large chunk of the movie was devoted to
the battle of Zion who cares it's a
perfect example of unnecessarily
expanding on lore so much so that the
story gets bogged down in details and
endless exposition if you do that fine
and that's nice I know he'd love it will
we ever see him again I suspect
someday number five prometheus oh hey
speaking of a story unnecessarily
expanding on more Prometheus did we
really need a prequel to the alien
series not really but we certainly were
not going to say no after all there were
enough hints and reveals an alien to
suggest an intriguing story what we got
instead was this horribly plotted mess
the movie gets way too bogged down in
the concepts and lore and the characters
are little more than cardboard cut-out
exposition dumps these things made us
not to mention they are all pants on
head's stupid it has Damon Lindelof DNA
written all over it cool ideas that are
jumbled together into an
incomprehensible and poorly thought-out
letdown number four Batman vs Superman
dawn of Justice it's really amazing how
DC managed to bungle their IPs so
horribly Batman vs Superman should have
been the movie event to end all movie
events ya have Batman you have Superman
and you have them fighting each other
how could that formula fail well Batman
vs Superman is your answer maybe this
isn't the worst thing of all time but it
certainly wasn't good it was horribly
plotted and pasted the characterizations
were completely off and the titular
fight itself lasted like five minutes
not to mention Jesse Eisenberg as Lex
Luthor boys mmm Bruce Wayne meets Clark
Kent I love it I love bringing people
together how are we it had lofty
aspirations but it just couldn't come
together into a satisfying whole
suddenly we were all worried about
Justice League and rightfully so hello
No
number three Indiana Jones and the
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull some people
were a little hesitant about a new
Indiana Jones movie it had been nearly
20 years since last crusade and Harrison
Ford was in his mid 60's even with
Grandpa Indy though it was still another
Indiana Jones Adventure
there was hope to be found although
those hopes were quickly dashed these
movies have always been silly but
crystal skull took the silliness way too
far you have that infamous monkey scene
the Jeep driving off a cliff and landing
in a tree
Indiana surviving a nuclear explosion by
hiding in a fridge and worst of all
aliens literal aliens
it was far too bombastic for its own
good and the horrible visual effects did
not help some franchises should just
stay in the past
number two The Hobbit trilogy genefique
the Lord of the Rings is a landmark
arguably the greatest film trilogy of
all time and three of the greatest
movies ever made period and then there's
the Hobbit now some people were a little
hesitant about The Hobbit
seeing as how Peter Jackson was adapting
a roughly 300 page children's novel into
an eight hour long epic but come on this
guy gave us Lord of the Rings have some
faith people you've got that all wrong
[Music]
unfortunately people were right to be
hesitant the trilogy is not only
laborious but it's filled with horrid
CGI and filmed at a very controversial
48 frames per second granted
expectations were unimaginably high
coming off Lord of the Rings but these
movies did themselves absolutely zero
favors can you promise that it will come
back before we unveil our most
disappointing number one pick here are a
few dishonorable mentions if you don't
leave now we'll die together
I can think of worse ways to go
but you're obviously crazy Mr Bond
dreams
[Music]
don't do this there is no Victor there
is only doom that's better landing than
me
junga oh he says orcs or solves
everything

Episode one The Phantom Menace
don't let recency bias fool you b-dawg
redeemed
while the last Jedi and rise of
Skywalker are polarizing nothing
compares to the debacle that was the
Phantom Menace
I'll try spinning that's a good trick
[Applause]
if you were too young or not born yet
then you don't understand just how
disastrous this movie was the hype was
unlike anything seen before or since and
yet it was completely and utterly
reviled people could not believe what
they just seen it was so bad that
everyone was still talking about the
matrix long after Phantom Menace had
come and gone and the matrix walked away
with four technical Academy Awards
meanwhile Star Wars was nominated for
seven Razzies when it comes to the most
disappointing movie ever nothing touches
The Phantom Menace what will happen to
me now do you agree with our picks let
