Just got Mummy 3 off of Netflix and had to turn it off after 25 minutes. It was SOOOO bad, the dialogue, the story, the replacement Evie (her accent was SOOO bad). Just everything was awful.
Worst Film of 2008!

I really liked it, but the new Evie ruined it. She must be related to or sleeping with the producer. Anyone could've seen she was miscast.

Well...anyone but Wiez is a miscast.
But as for The Mummy, I enjoyed the hell out of it when I saw it....but I couldnt stand it the second time.

Wiez not in it did suck. But the new girl did have her accent down. Sounded just like Wiez to me, so it helped.
My worst would be Cloverfield.
The Happening - what did people expect?
TDK - I liked it as much as the 1st. It is over-rated. As well as all the Joker avatars, sigs and Halloween costumes, lets not forget screen names. Oh...the Jokers farts smell like roses.
Indy 4 - fell asleep. Ford sounded terrible, and then the atom-bomb and indy surviving in a refrig was stupid. It seems Lucas makes every thing for 5 yr olds. Like the PT SW films, and the stupid Clone Wars Movie which I forgot about until now.

Appaloosa: An Ed Harris directed movie... love the actors in it and expected way more because of that and the reviews the film had gotten. All I saw was a boring 2 hour story that could have been explained in a short 2 minutes.
White balance was off from some scenes, and the camera angles were uninspiring and boring. It was a piece of ham.
Also, the Yes Man was complete garbage. Glad I didn't pay a cent for that movie. Got a sneak preview pass for two. Jim Carrey bores me now.

There is a scene later in the film where John Hannah has to deliver the line, "You speak Yeti?" and you can just look in his eyes and see the sad desperation that comes from an actor's willingness to do anything for a paycheck.
(I think this was after the yak puke scene.)

Nah. It's Maria Bello. She was miscast, but she's actually a pretty good actress. She's great in "A History of Violence". (she plays Viggo's wife in that)

The fridge scene I can look pass..
but going over a waterfall three times and not have the entire vehicle empty out its passengers or the fact his hat stayed firmly on his head... ridiculous or the scene with Shai and the swinging monkeys. AHHHH!!!!

The thing that got me about Mummy 3 (besides the absence of Rachel Weisz) was that Brendan Fraser only looked a few years older than his son. It was bizarre.

Uh....uhh....Indy jumping on tanks, and fighting nazi's, riding a mine car, falling off a bridge....remember those scenes? His hat didnt fall off once (until the end of the tank fight)....ZOMG! Those movies suck ass now! God, that door in Raiders? The one that takes a year to close! Wow! Stupid! What about Willy stopping the spike trap in Temple at the last second!!! Yeah, these movies suck....

Gotta love good ol' sarcasm. No matter how obvious it is.
The 2 most overrated movies of the year were Cloverfield and The Dark Knight...

I will agree to the Dark Knight being overrated.
It was a good movie. I just hated the Batman voice coming out of Bale and the fact that the hype and the near perfect reviews end up making this a disappointing let down venture... Well for this movie goer. Had I not been built up by the hype machine and reading near perfect positive review after another, not to mention some big statements were made that would find even the best of the greatest movies having a difficult time living up to... suffice to say, it made this a downer for me.
So while I don't agree that it's as amazing as others made it out to be, it most certainly isn't deserving of the title of worst movie of 2008. C'mon people... don't go overboard like those who declare this the greatest action/comic/detective movie of all-time... No way, shape, or form is this movie even close to being the worst movie of the past year. That, or you haven't seen much outside of it in 2008.

I think you must have seen a different version as they did empty out. What about Indy using an inflating lifeboat to parachute out of a plane and then going over a waterfall. And any self respecting Indy fan knows that he never leaves his hat behind. Harrison Ford even staples the thing to his head. I can't defend the monkeys, but we do get very nostalgic about older movies we loved as kids. I bet if Chewbaca had swung on a vine in episode III and made a Tarzan noise instead of doing it in Jedi, people would have ripped it to pieces
