Most disappointing movie ever (high expectations, but flopped)

[Kneel B4 Zod]

yes, but most disappointing movie EVER?

are you telling me that Rocky V is closer to Rocky IV than Oceans 12 is to Oceans 11?

or that The Phantom Menace, compared to the original trilogy, was a disappointment, but boy Oceans 12 takes the cake?

I said personally dissapointing. That's the movie that I was really excited to see that pissed me off.

I've never been a Rocky fan, and had zero expectations that the Star Wars movies would be any good (in part because the originals were pretty [censored] in retrospect).

Rocky IV is really stupid and retarted but has some cool scenes and it's a lot better if you turn it off right at the end of the Drago fight and before Stallone's horrific attempt at a political speech.

What the hell is wrong with you people? Stallone ended the cold war so that you'd have the freedom to flame him on the internets. If I can change, and you can change, maybe we all can change.

For my money, Made.

It was so disappointing, it retroactively made me decide that Swingers kinda sucked too, since it's essentially the same characters.

OMG WTF. I can see people hating on rocky V, this wasnt the greatest. Rocky Vs Ivan Drago is the most epic movie ever, with easily the best music montages (only rivaled by Karate Kid)....ever. How can you hate on rocky IV?

One that comes to mind for me is Pearl Harbor. Tried to be a great war movie and have a good love story and missed badly on both. I'm sure it is not the "worst" flop, but I was disappointed.

Thats my top pick as well. It had potential to be a great movie, but ended up being the defenition of a failure.

Wait, are you saying that Rocky IV was good? I thought it was universally understood that only the first Rocky was good, and all the others were kind of just there.

Rocky II is really good.

Rocky III is really fun to watch.

Rocky V never happened, and I'm not sure why it's in this thread, because (a) it never happened and (b) no one had any expectations that it would be any good, at least not after seeing any of the previews.
