    Mine:

    Ishtar
    Avengers
    Batman and Robin
    Perfect Storm (I know I'm in the minority on this -- I'll respond to all the flames now: bite me, it's just an opinion.)

    ...hmm..can't really think of any others (that I've seen -- didn't see Battlefield Earth).
    Yeah, no flaming, but MUST disagree with you on Perfect Storm; I liked it and own the DVD. It wasnt fabulous, though, but I wouldnt put it on my worst films of all time list.

    I guess what I didn't like about it (and films like it) is when movies are "vehicles" for particular actors to "act". This one was a multi-purpose vehicle for the entire ensemble to "act", and I just didn't think it went anywhere. I don't mind "acting", but I hate it when they're too obvious and "Hollywood" about it. (And I have been a fan of George Clooney since From Dusk Til Dawn -- he's just such a very charismatic actor.)

    Oh, oh, another one, what was that one with Jodie Foster and ...Richard Gere, was it? Oh, yeah, Somersby -- retch.

    I have to agree with Contact. The best thing about that one was what's-his-name...erm...the psycho...I guess it was the Henry Strozier character, the minister?

    And of course, with a list as comprehensive as Worf's, I have to disagree with one or two: Aliens 3 (I like courageous films -- in fact, I dug the whole franchise/quadrilogy/whatever, and need to get those on DVD), Beverly Hills Cop II (I liked Tony Scott's direction on that one).

    I liked Black Hole until the end, but the end was so bad it ruined the rest of the movie for me.
