For me the shape of water was the worst film I’ve ever seen because the whole story was just so weird and ridiculous… An alien and a woman getting together.

The worst part about it is that critics at the time were praising the film…

    The Last Airbender.

    But to be honest, I never actually made it all the way through the whole movie. It butchers its source content so severely that it is honestly infuriating to watch.

      This was the Dragon ball movie for me for the exact same reasons. It wasn’t even fun bad. It was boring bad.

        My cousin made me watch that recently. He said it was his favorite movie to hate watch.

        I disagree. It was just a bad movie.

        I did my best to watch that movie with eyes that had no idea about the dragon Ball franchise and it was so full of obvious, poorly executed tropes that it hurt to watch and then, when you compare that to the actual dragon Ball series it gets so much worse.

        They had volumes of story and mythos to pull from and they botched it into an unwatchable and tired mess.

      I’m convinced he made it badly on purpose so he wouldn’t have to make the other two.

      There is no other explanation for the earth bender scene.

      Honestly, the only live action adaptation of an anime I saw that didn’t suck was the Gintama film, which was genius!
