Dustin Hoffman-Ishtar

Sean Connery-Zardoz

Any others?

[Crazy Dave]

1. Eddie Murphy

Everything he's done after the first "Nutty Professor"

[philosophie_en_rose]

9. Dreamgirls?

:shrug:

[Crazy Dave]

13. Haven't seen it

Didn't know he was in it. I hope he did good.

[philosophie_en_rose]

30. He's brilliant in it.

He's also won a Golden Globe and SAG award. And he's nominated for an Oscar.

With that said, I've seen previews for a seriously unfunny-looking movie where he plays a white guy and an overweight older woman. It's called Norbit or Norbert or something.

[BuelahWitch]

54. Yep, he stole the movie

I hope he wins the Oscar. Him and Jennifer Hudson...

[LostinVA]

2. Julie Roberts & Liam Neeson -- "Satisfaction"

What a truly horrible movie.

[mikeytherat]

Or it's alternate title: "Julia Roberts stars in 'The Girls of Summer'"

I saw it pitched exactly like that on some TNT-esque station many years ago, but I wasn't buying it - I could smell a retitled "Satisfaction" a mile away.

[LostinVA]

6. OMG

[mikeytherat]

8. Just checked IMDB: "Girls of Summer" was the title for Canadian release

Damn, sneaky canucks!

[regnaD kciN]

[AllegroRondo]

3. Gene Hackman - Stranded in Space

Tom Hanks - Mazes and Monsters

Basil Rathbone - The Magic Sword

[Scarlett17]

4. Tom Hanks - The Man With One Red Shoe

[mikeytherat]

7. Tom Hanks - The Money Pit

Most of the rest of the cast deserved to be in that movie.

[Orrex]

19. Tom Hanks - Mazes and Monsters

[Orrex]

20. Tom Hanks - Joe Versus the Volcano

[Orrex]

21. Tom Hanks - Turner and Hooch

[Orrex]

23. Tom Hanks - The Da Vinci Code

Perhaps the worst of all.

[Twillig]

28. Tom Hanks -- Bachelor Party

debate remains open.

[Orrex]

31. Tom Hanks - The Burbs

[HughBeaumont]

35. Tom Hanks - Nothing in Common

During his "eeny-meeny-mynie-moe" phase . . .

[Orrex]

36. Tom Hanks - Dragnet

[leftyclimber]

47. How about Tom Hanks - almost anything before Philadelphia

[Orrex]

56. Fair enough, if we include Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail

[Scarlett17]

5. Sandra Bullock - Speed 2

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

10. Robert de Niro - Rocky and Bullwinkle

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

11. Noooooo, not Canadian Bacon!

I like that movie.

And, it'll be a training film for the troops when * thinks Canada is getting WMD or the Bomb. It's not easy discerning the civilians from the combatants when they're all so damned nice!

:rofl:

[regnaD kciN]

14. Agreed..."Canadian Bacon" was a classic...

I especially love the scene where they get pulled over by the Mountie and ticketed because their anti-Canadian graffiti isn't in both English and French. :rofl:

[barb162]

12. Eyes Wide Shut

Incomprehensible, self important, etc

[malta blue]

15. GIGLI

worst movie of all time - although I do hear ya on Ishtar

[ruiner4u]

16. Star wars holiday special?

whaaaaa?

[JVS]

17. not a movie but teh suXXorz

[democracyindanger]

27. Be forewarned.

http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=star+wars+holiday+special&search=Search

This stuff makes Jar Jar seem like a good idea.

[ruiner4u]

39. Holy Crap!!!!!

LOL!!!!!! Oh thank you for that..lol... I watched the 5 minute version... That was so horrible...lol...

[Strawman]

18. Paul Giamatti - Lady in the Water

Have I mentioned how that movie sucked ass on this board yet?

[JVS]

22. Dan Aykroid-- Dr. Detroit Spielberg--1941

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

24. Matthew McConaughey & Renée Zellweger --

[Dervill Crow]

34. Is that Renee Zellweger?

Her eyes look like a real person's.

[martymar64]

41. Another Zellwegger classic - Love and a .45

Classic road picture with Gil Bellows, Rory Cochrane, Jack Nance, Jeffrey Combs and Peter Fonda quoting the I Ching with a throat vibrator thingy.

On Edit: GREAT SOUNDTRACK!!!

[Zavulon]

25. I really don't think John Candy has any desire to forget Canadian Bacon

After all, Candy is dead. It would be tough for him to work up a desire of any kind.

[Lautremont]

26. Johnny Depp - Private Resort (if you ladies or gentlemen ever

wanted to see the Deppster naked, there's your chance)

Debra Winger - Slumber Party '57 (ditto)

David Hasslehoff - Revenge of the Cheerleaders (to get a glimpse of the Hoff's knightrider)

Matthew Modine, Phoebe Cates - Private School... For Girls

Tim Robbins - Fraternity Vacation

Al Franken - One More Saturday Night

Oh, there are so many more...

[Madspirit]

29. Jane Fonda

...wants to forget Barbarella but I don't.
Madspirit

[terrya]

32. Tim Robbins - "Howard the Duck"

I'm sure Academy Award winner Tim Robbins mentions THIS one.

[HughBeaumont]

33. Al Pacino - Cruisin'

Cruisin' is the ultimate broadbrush. A mediocre plot, bad use of lighting and awash with the worst stereotypes regarding all characters involved, gay or straight.

[KamaAina]

37. Bill Cosby: Leonard Part 6.

So bad he actually apologized to his audience for it. Makes you wonder what happened to Leonard Parts 1-5. :puke:

[KamaAina]

38. Bruce Willis: Hudson Hawk.

Toss-up between it and Heaven's Gate for Worst. Movie. Ever., with Ishtar taking the bronze.

[momophile]

40. Susan Sarandon - Rocky Horror?

I'm just thinking...

[MonkeyFunk]

44. i saw Sarandon

on Inside the Actors' Studio a few years ago. She said she loved Rocky Horror and had no regrets about doing it - says it made her famous.

[DainBramaged]

48. NO WAY, NICE TITS JANET??????

Oooh, oooh THAT film is even a favorite of my Beautiful daughter, And she's gone to Friday night showings with her bag of goodies to throw at the screen and audience.

[sarge43]

42. To save some time

Kevin Costner - everything after Dances with Wolves

Mel Gibson - just about everything after The Year of Living Dangerously

[Jade Fox]

51. Yes and yes....n/t

[mtnester]

43. Mars Attacks...there is a LONG list of folks who I think

would like simply for that movie to vanish from the space time continuum

[Rabrrrrrr]

45. Sylvester Stallone and David Carradine - Death Race 2000

Though I really like the movie - it's a classic! But is embarrasingly bad.

[flamingyouth]

49. Jack Nicholson - "Psych-Out"

"Stoney, Stoney! Warren's freaking out at the gallery!" :D

[Dukkha]

50. two posthumously

Richard Burton - Exorcist II: The Heretic
Raul Julia - Street Fighter

Even worse they were the last movies they were in, so the obituaries focused on that the most. Let that be a lesson. Don't take any bad parts or it may be your last and what you'll be remembered for.

[Kerrytravelers]

52. Sly Stallone's first pic was porn.

Your opinion of porn aside, some actors who have had bare beginnings often regret their choices later on, when the pictures come back to cash in on their new-founded fame. Personally, I could care less, it was his choice, but I'm certainly not looking for a copy of it on the shelf of my local Blockbuster Video.

This is the source I'm citing:

[QMPMom]

53. Will Smith - Wild Wild West

[Drum]

55. Battlefield Earth: everybody.

Ick.
