    Any re-re-re-remakes of a superhero movie is total bull crap.
    Actually Batman Begins was better than the Batman movie.

    OK, this one is from a long time ago, but it's the only one I have walked out on: Tin Men. About some guys peddling aluminum siding. Painful.
    Maybe it was the door to door salesman in me, but I thought that movie was hilarious.

    I am just so over the superhero genre - kid can do anything with a weird voice and strange face. Yuck!

    Avatar. It was nothing more than a remake of Dances with Wolves using aliens and spaceships.

    Anyone remember "Mall Rats?" Recommended to me and the woman I was seeing at the time. It's the only movie I have ever walked out on.

    "The Hurt Locker"

    I thought it was completely over-hyped and utterly worthless. Complete re-hash of every other "up close & personal" war movie, all jammed into the Iraq landscape. Not sure what the critics saw in it, other than the James Cameron/Kathryn Bigelow angle at Oscar time.

    It was such as shame, coming on the heels of Kevin's Smith's mega-successful "Clerks".

    Everyone told me that I HAD to see Napoleon Dynamite...I regretted every nanosecond of it...

    You must not have a sense of humor then.

    Lord of The Rings are the most overrated movies ever. The mother of all battles after the mother of all battle after the mother of all battles..

    Wal E. Lets just cram some more messages down your throat and pretend its entertainment. My kids wanted to walk out. I should have let them.

    Thin Red Line. Terrible, except where Woody Harrelson gets his bottom blown off by a grenade, which was pretty funny. Fortunately that happens in the first 20 mins, but that was all I could take.

    Waking Ned Devine. Dunno, old geezers in the UK and I think a dead person.

    Unexpectedly good after thinking it would be terrible:

    Eyes Wide Shut - I wanted to stab myself in the eyes, so painful, I even told people at the movie rental place not to bother renting it because it was so bad

    I kept waiting for something to happen!

    Titanic. Got dragged to it by all my friends senior year of high school. Then for my freshman year of college it seemed like EVERY chick had bought it the nanosecond it was released in stores and it was all any of them wanted to watch on a movie night.

    I was forced to hang out at the guys dorm so I could watch real movies. :tongue:

    Oh, I forgot, 2001 Space Odyssey is the most overrated movie ever. Let's drag out space walks and other mundane activities for 10 minutes.

    Ahahahahaha! That is what I tell my sister when she tries to convince me to buy it. I already HAVE the Kevin Costner version. ^_^
