Biggest Movie Disappointments

What was the biggest disappointment(s) for you in terms of movies?

I'll post my list later.

Really? :/
I was looking forward to seeing it, what didn't you like about it?

It was dreadfully boring, and young Bilbo is really annoying. It might be a let down after how great the Lord of the Rings movies were, but I just didn't enjoy it at all. I'm pretty sure I fell asleep in the theater.

prometheus

pretty sure that's an obligatory one for almost everyone with half a brain

I liked Prometheus as a stand-alone movie, but I didn't try to attach it to my association with the Alien movies.

I agree about The Hobbit. I didn't need to see 15 mins of hobbits gleefully entering his house.

The Tree of Life.

I rarely fork over money for movie theater tickets, so when I do I expect (or assume) the movie I'm going to see will be great.

There's been other recent disappointments, but this one stands out for some reason.

Eyes Wide Shut. I had good expectations due to the leads and the fact that Kubrick was directing.

The Last Airbender, I expected it to be brilliant as I'm a huge fan of M. Night Shyamalan, but it sucked huge amounts of cock.

The Hangover. Can anyone tell me why people think it's so hilarious? I didn't laugh once.

The Avengers. Snooze fest.

And I can't tell you how many of my favorite books were trashed by their movies. I've repressed the memories.

Prometheus, could have been much better. Sort of an octopus alien, how creative...

The Hobbit was more then I expected, I enjoyed it.

Elysium, not very disappointed, but I expected it to be better though.

i just dont trust anyone who doesnt like avatar

The major disappointments are always sequels to classics, with the original director on board. See:

The Phantom Menace
The Matrix Revolutions
Land Of The Dead
Indiana Jones & The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull
Prometheus

One film that didn't fulfill the above criteria and just didn't live up to the hype for me was Drive.
